Yachts for sale
Yachts are the boats you live aboard for a weekend or a season, with staterooms, full galleys, and systems that rival a small home. On Buoy List you will find motor yachts from owners who invested in maintenance and can walk you through every system. At this level a professional survey is essential, and the community here understands why.

Frequently asked questions
-
How much does a used motor yacht cost?
- Entry-level motor yachts around 40 to 50 feet often sell from roughly 150,000 to 600,000 dollars, and larger or newer yachts climb well into seven figures. Engine hours, refit history, and the condition of the many onboard systems matter enormously at this level. A yacht's ongoing costs often outweigh its purchase price over time.
-
What does it cost to own a yacht each year?
- A widely cited rule is roughly 10 percent of the purchase price per year for dockage, insurance, maintenance, crew if any, and fuel, and it can run higher on older boats. Slip fees, haul-outs, and system repairs are the big line items. Budget honestly for upkeep before buying, since deferred maintenance on a yacht gets very expensive.
-
Do I need a survey to buy a yacht?
- Absolutely. A professional pre-purchase survey and an engine survey, plus a sea trial and haul-out, are standard and often required by lenders and insurers. The survey routinely uncovers issues worth far more than its cost. Never buy a yacht on photos and a dock walkthrough alone.
-
Where do I keep a yacht?
- Most yachts live in a marina slip sized to their length and beam, and slip availability and cost vary a lot by region. Confirm you have a slip lined up before you buy, since prime slips have waitlists. Factor dockage into your ownership budget as one of the largest recurring costs.
