For example, a €20,000,000 superyacht may require approximately €2,000,000 per year.
Fully serviced yacht management is billed monthly, with pricing dependent on vessel size, service scope, agreement length, and overall condition. For a tailored quote, our team is available to assist.

**The Invisible Engine Behind Modern Yachting:
How Expert Management Is Redefining the Ownership Experience**
In the world of luxury yachting, the allure is unmistakable: freedom at sea, the thrill of exploration, and the quiet privilege of experiencing the world from your own floating sanctuary. But behind every immaculate superyacht lies a complex ecosystem of logistics, expertise, and 24/7 coordination—one most owners rarely see.
As yachts grow in scale, sophistication, and technological complexity, professional management has become not simply a convenience, but a critical component of responsible ownership. Today, leading companies like Globe Regal are elevating yacht management from a support service to a full‑scale strategic partnership.
The True Cost of Freedom at Sea
Luxury comes with its own gravity—and yachts, more than almost any asset, require meticulous oversight to retain their value and operational integrity. Annual running costs typically hover around 10% of the vessel’s market value, a figure that encompasses crew salaries, maintenance, insurance, berthing, fuel, regulatory compliance, and technical upkeep.
For many owners, this level of administration can eclipse the pleasure of ownership. That’s where full‑service management steps in: a single, expertly coordinated point of control that allows owners to enjoy their yachts the way they were meant to—effortlessly.
Management: The Modern Owner’s Essential Asset
At the heart of Globe Regal’s approach is a philosophy built on transparency, integrity, and operational excellence. Each yacht under its care is assigned a dedicated manager, ensuring that every operational detail—from crew coordination to technical scheduling—is handled with precision.
The scope of services reflects the complexity of modern yachts:
- Comprehensive crew management and payroll
- Maintenance planning and technical oversight
- Accounting, cost control, and clear financial reporting
- Regulatory compliance and onboard inspections
- 24/7 global emergency support
- In‑house legal advisory for contracts and insurance claims
Perhaps most notable is an industry‑rare commitment: a strict non‑commission policy, ensuring that every supplier discount flows directly back to the owner.
Building the Future: New Construction Expertise
The construction of a custom yacht remains one of the most ambitious projects an individual can undertake. With build times ranging from three to four years, new construction demands a level of technical and financial oversight that few owners wish to shoulder alone.
Globe Regal’s new‑build specialists—naval architects, engineers, master mariners, and senior project managers—guide owners from the earliest sketches to the triumphant moment of launch.
Their responsibilities span:
- Shipyard selection and contract negotiations
- Technical plan review and engineering oversight
- Budget monitoring and timeline management
- Flag‑state and classification documentation
- Sea trials, commissioning, and final delivery
The result is a process defined not by stress, but by celebration—a seamless journey from concept to creation.
Refitting: Breathing New Life Into a Yacht
Refits have become one of the fastest‑growing sectors of the yachting industry, driven by evolving owner tastes, new technology, and the desire to maintain market appeal. Whether the goal is modernising the interior, enhancing exterior spaces, or upgrading mechanical systems, a refit can significantly enhance a yacht’s comfort and charter value.
Typical costs vary widely:
- Full exterior repaint: from € 100,000 to in excess of €1,000,000
- Interior renovations or on‑deck spa installations: by quotation
Globe Regal’s refit team oversees every stage—planning, contractor management, quality control, and delivery—ensuring that each project is completed on time and to exacting standards.
The Project Managers Behind the Scenes
Behind every successful new build or major refit lies an unsung hero: the project manager. This role blends marine engineering expertise with financial discipline, negotiation finesse, and an unrelenting eye for detail.
Globe Regal’s project management division orchestrates:
- Feasibility and concept development
- Budgeting and scheduling
