Buying a superyacht is perhaps the ultimate luxury item, many make the purchase and almost all of them seem to enjoy the experience once they have done it. Hein Velema, CEO of Fraser Yachts says, “You don’t buy a superyacht EHFDXVH LW PDNHV VHQVH LQ IDFW WKDW LV WKH ODVW WKLQJ LW GRHV But why do so many successful businessmen purchase yachts? They do so because it gives them the ultimate feeling of pride. You charter a yacht to experience a lifestyle but having your own superyacht gives much more satisfaction. It’s all about emotion and when you analyse it, emotion makes no sense at all.â€? At any one time there are plenty of yachts on the market and choosing the right one takes time, care and attention VR WKH Ă€UVW VWHS IRU PRVW EX\HUV LV WR Ă€QG D UHSXWDEOH
