  1. That Nordhavn is nice. I am not a motorboat guy but if I was going into a motor boat, it would be a Nordhavn or else a Kadey-Krogen.

  5. Ive been on a 82ft Nordhavn in the mediterranean( southern italy) for 1 week.
    Those expedition style yachts are the Hummers of the seas. Beautiful interior, very comfortable, and one tough boat...
    2 thumbs up !!

    These days you can buy a fractional ownership too if you're only going to use it a few times a year. I have friends here in Miami that have done that and they are quite happy... You can typically buy a 1/16, 1/8, 1/4 share of a yacht(power or sail) according to your budget and style preferences..

  6. I almost bought a hummer while i was on middle east assignment. Went for a ride in the desert. Interior was spartan, glade I didn't buy it. Sorry but don't see the comparison ...
    Fractional ownership is interesting, I'll look into it. thanks.

    charter, lease or air taxi must be cheaper than tying up a load of capital in ownership of a jet.

    Similar with boats etc - no maintenance etc.

    What is the weekly rental cost of yacht like these? Maybe more economic to rent one for a few weeks a year than to own one.

    If you own and are able rent it out during the year to earn income it may make sense to own one.
