Yacht Co-Ownership Explained

What is yacht co-ownership?

Fractional yacht ownership, also known as yacht co-ownership, allows a small number of owners to jointly purchase genuine equity shares in the same luxury yacht. Each co-owner receives guaranteed private usage every year, contributes only their proportionate share of the yacht’s genuine running costs and benefits from professional management designed to remove much of the day-to-day responsibility of sole ownership.

In short: you own genuine equity in the yacht, enjoy guaranteed private use each year and share the costs and responsibilities of ownership with a small number of fellow co-owners.

Yacht Co-Ownership in Practice

What Does Yacht Co-Ownership Look Like in Practice?

Using a current Sunseeker 76 share on the Côte d’Azur, this example shows how the numbers compare for an owner who expects to use the yacht for around six weeks each year.

*Illustrative whole-yacht figures are calculated by scaling the current 1/8 share price and annual running cost proportionately. They are not an independent market valuation or a forecast of the exact costs of sole ownership.

The important point: if you realistically expect to use a yacht for around six weeks a year, co-ownership lets you purchase and fund the proportion of the yacht that matches the time you actually intend to use it.

More than a share in a yacht

The Moments That Make Yacht Ownership Worth It.

Yacht ownership is about the time you spend with the people who matter most: family holidays, long lunches in the harbour, exploring new cruising grounds and returning to favourite destinations year after year. Co-ownership is designed to make those experiences part of your life without requiring you to own and fund an entire yacht on your own.
Professional management

Everything Behind the Scenes, Taken Care Of.

You bought a yacht to enjoy time on the water — not to organise engineers, servicing, housekeeping, invoices and scheduling. Yacht Share coordinates the operational side of co-ownership so owners can focus on using the yacht, while maintenance, administration, financial management and owner preparation are handled professionally.


From your annual rota and key contacts to maintenance updates, yacht documents and important ownership information, the Yacht Share Owner App keeps everything organised in one place.

We have 3 teenage lads, and they just didn’t want to come on holiday with us anymore. However, once there was a yacht on offer that suddenly changed. Now they love to come along and we have wonderful family times together. The boys are great company and we have created lots and lots of new family memories that will remain with us forever.

The yacht share idea always appealed to us, finding a professional and reliable syndicate was harder. I am happy to vouch for Yacht Share Network, they are truly the masters of the universe and make it work incredibly well.

Boating was never my dream however it was my husband Robert’s ultimate goal in life. Sharing meant we managed to achieve a of this and more with a fraction of the cost. We could still take the children skiing and do all the other things a busy family wants to do. When you see your 7 year old swimming in the sea and in the tender shouting faster whilst laughing and screaming you know that holidays are back to being magical. This has been the making of us as a family thank you so much.

I’ve known William for many years and he knew that our boat sat empty in Cannes for most of the time. He suggested we sell some shares instead of just burning cash on moorings and maintenance. Yacht Share Network took her into their fleet and we got ¾ of our capital back. Now we just have ¼ of the running costs, and don’t feel so guilty that we only use the boat about 6 weeks of the year.

I have to admit, I probably love boating more than my wife does so buying a boat was unlikely to ever happen. A boat share however… I got the boss to approve, and a happy wife is a happy life lol!
