Superyacht Owner Adventures and 112 (37.2m) Flagship M/Y Serenity

Posted March 1, 2018 in Charter by Janine St.Denis

The 122-foot (37.2m) Flagship motor yacht SERENITY is a true testament to her name. Built in 1993, but fully refitted in 2017, SERENITY offers guests a tranquil oasis from which to explore the natural wonders of the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. Eight guests are welcomed aboard for the ultimate luxury adventure — which is exactly what her owners wanted. SERENITY is their first yacht; they purchased her in 2016 and have been delighted by her ever since. Avid charterers, the owners of SERENITY were keen to explore the incredible waters from Seattle to South Alaska; for them, owning their own yacht was the next step.

They spend between six and eight weeks a year on board in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska. Previously named TALOS, the owners dubbed their yacht SERENITY because “that is how we feel when we’re aboard. She is the perfect yacht for this region,” her owners say. There are lots of enclosed spaces, like the flybridge — which can be alfresco — and the skylounge, that allow you to enjoy the sights regardless of conditions. The region in which the yacht cruises is unlike the traditional tropical yachting hot spots. Which is just how her owners like it. They’re often on board in Alaska. First thing in the morning, the owner will enjoy a run on the yacht’s treadmill, then the adventures begin. SERENITY’s 29-foot Alaskan-style fishing boat, the SERENE MACHINE, is fully outfitted for exploration. It is perfectly suited to be independent of the main yacht for the day and comfortably accommodates eight people. The SERENE MACHINE has a stand-up day head and is enclosed in order to protect from the weather. The SERENE MACHINE is perfect to take guests ashore for hikes, get up-close-and-personal with glaciers, cast a line and hope to reel in the big one, and cruise alongside pods of orcas and other incredible wildlife. “We’ve had it only one season,” the owners say, “and it opened up the utility of the yacht in ways you never imagined.”

One of the owners’ favorite aspects of the yacht is the on-deck master. “It’s a huge plus as opposed to being downstairs,” they say, but also mention, “The yacht has great spaces for gathering with everyone on board, but it also has places perfect for some quiet time to read a book or watch the scenery go by.”

Master bedroom SERENITY

SERENITY’s owners love Alaska and Puget Sound; this region is their favorite cruising destination. “The beauty and the wildlife are incomparable to anywhere we’ve ever been,” they say. “From the islands and changing nature of the landscape to seeing whales, otters, eagles and bears, to going fishing and crabbing, there’s so much to do — we love enjoying the many things that part of the country has to offer.” Another favorite cruising location for SERENITY’s owners is New England along the Penobscot Bay of Maine and farther north into Canada. They also enjoy The Bahamas, specifically the Exumas — they really love the fishing there. But they maintain that no matter where else they have cruised, Alaska is by far the most unique. “It’s constantly changing and always surprising you,” they maintain, adding, “There’s one spot in Red Bluff Bay where you can nose the yacht to a tidal waterfall then cruise a couple of hundred yards and spot a bear fishing in a meadow, then in a few more hundred yards, you drop the shrimp pods to catch dinner.”

Serenity Yacht

SERENITY is the perfect yacht in the perfect location for her owners. They enjoy every moment aboard and they offer her for charter, allowing guests to relish the luxury and incredible location that go hand-in-hand with SERENITY. “She was on the charter market when we bought her,” the owners say. “We expected to be aboard between six and eight weeks a year in Alaska and with her already consistent charter following, it made sense for us to make her available to others in those incredible waters. The responses from clients who cruise in that area are always the same — they are blown away. Unless you’ve spent a lot of time up there, it’s unlike anything you’ve experienced before. We also get a lot of compliments on our incredible crew, but what guests talk about most are their experiences in the hidden bays in which they anchor, and the incredible opportunities SERENE MACHINE has opened up.”

Charter guests get to enjoy everything from fishing to wildlife spotting — “one group of charter guests were out on SERENE MACHINE when a pod of orcas came by,” the owners say. “One of the whales was swimming on its back under the boat, getting a belly scratch from the keel.” Another favorite memory for guests is cruising past glaciers and picking up a piece of floating ice for cocktails that evening.

OWNER'S SUITE — SERENITY | Northrop & Johnson

The captain and crew of SERENITY further enhance the onboard experience. From the captain with a 20-year Navy career and lots of big-boat experience to the chef who creates incredible Alaskan feasts from the fresh fish caught by the guests that day, the crew up the ante aboard SERENITY, ensuring an enjoyable, five-star experience for all.

After all, yachting is all about having fun! “We love being on the water,” the owners of SERENITY say. And their yacht allows them total flexibility and total peacefulness. “We love to anchor out in a beautiful bay with nothing around us but nature.”

Understanding Yacht Co-Ownership: Answers to the 8 most-asked questions.

yacht no destination owner

Whether you want to buy a share of a yacht, sell a share of a yacht, or are completely new to the concept of yacht co-ownership, this article is for you. We’re sharing some of the most popular questions we get from clients, and our answers.

What is yacht co-ownership?

Yacht co-ownership  – also referred to as fractional yacht ownership or shared equity yacht ownership – describes an ownership structure that enables a designated number of co-owners to share all the benefits and costs associated with owning a yacht. 

Why choose co-ownership?

The immediate appeal of co-ownership, as opposed to conventional yacht ownership, is that you only pay for the time you spend on the yacht. If you were to own a yacht outright, you would be paying for the yacht even when it’s simply docked in the marina.

Plus, with shared ownership, your yachting budget can go a much longer way. The more people you have to share the cost with, the bigger your budget and your yacht options will be. Rather than having just one single budget to work within, you’ll have double or triple that depending on how many partners you share the yacht with.

Another major advantage to co-ownership is the hassle-free experience it offers. As part of AvYachts Co-ownership Plan, management and maintenance responsibilities can be taken care of for you. Rather than worry about planning yard times, hiring and managing crew, and the day-to-day challenges of yacht ownership, you’ll be able to spend more time enjoying your yacht and having fun.

How does co-ownership work?

With yacht co-ownership, each owner gets to use the yacht on a fair basis according to how large their share is. There is a round-robin system that rotates the most popular weeks of the year, such as high-season or school holidays, with the flexibility to swap weeks.

What is the right number of co-owners?

There is no one right number of owners. It is dependent on a variety of factors, including the size of the yacht, plus where and how often you plan on using it. Our expert matchmakers will work with you to find just the right ownership structure for you. 

Why do so few companies offer Co-Ownership services?

Co-ownership has long been a part of yachting culture – whether it’s family members buying together, business partners, or even friends. So why is it that so few companies offer co-ownership services? The honest answer is that it requires a lot more effort and dedication to put a shared deal together than a single ownership deal. In some cases, it can be twice to four times the work, so a company/broker needs to be passionate about the concept of finding the right fit for you and be experienced at successful yacht partner matchmaking.

Why consider selling a portion of your yacht?

The demand for yachting is growing.  Every yacht owner has weeks their yacht is sitting empty.  That is never good for the yacht, the crew, or the bottom line.  While some owners open their yacht for charter to defray the cost, another option is to sell ¼ or more of your yacht for a lump sum plus an annual rate for a guaranteed number of weeks a year.  As the seller, you set the rules of ownership.  It is a guaranteed flow of funds and will keep the yacht and crew moving. 

If you are looking to buy a share of a yacht, what factors should you consider when setting a budget?

Owning a yacht is expensive, no matter what your budget is. Here are some questions to consider when setting your budget:

-    Do you want a crew, or are you planning on being the captain and maintaining the yacht?  -      Usage weeks: How many times a year are you going to use the yacht?  -      Number of staterooms: How many people will you be traveling with? -      Destination: Where do you want to go on the yacht? -      Homeport: Where do you want to keep the yacht? -      How long do you want to own the yacht? -      Do you want to handle the maintenance and logistics of owning a yacht?  

Any additional considerations?

At the end of the day, it is not only the purchase price of the yacht that you should keep in mind.  The yearly maintenance and running budget are some of the most important numbers to consider when shopping for a yacht.

 As the expert in helping you buy or sell a share of a yacht, AvYachts matchmakers can connect you with the yachting experience you dream of, at a fraction of the price you imagine. Ready to get started? Contact us today.

Best of British Brands – "The yacht no owner ever wants to part with"

In march 2018, the entrepreneur richard hadida became the proud owner of oyster yachts. he was inspired by a life-long love of sailing and a deeply held belief, supported by many in the sailing community, that oyster yachts are simply the best in the world. founded in 1973, oyster has always been an authentically british brand, making it well placed to weather all the political turbulence of the last year. while rooted in britain, the brand has a truly international clientele and, with a depreciating pound, oyster yachts are an even more appealing prospect for overseas buyers..

The brand takes pride in contributing to its local economies, employing 290 staff across its shipyards in Southampton and Wroxham and investing substantially in its employees to develop their skills.

Whether circumnavigating the globe, exploring every tiny bay in the Mediterranean or setting off on an epic adventure to a far-flung tropical paradise, Oyster has precisely the right yacht. Comfort and safety are so inherent to the Oyster design that every journey becomes the destination to be shared with family and friends. Oyster builds yachts made to last a lifetime, of such impeccable quality that an Oyster owner will never need to buy another yacht.

‘We are delighted that this is the case, but it does present us with a very peculiar challenge!’ says Richard Hadida. ‘Despite this, existing owners cannot help but be lured by the new range’s features and the continual improvements to design, safety and comfort’.

Oyster Yachts are working on a new integrated tracking system that alerts the Oyster aftercare team to a faulty component before the owner is even aware of it. The freshwater systems have been upgraded to increase shower pressure and produce pure-tasting onboard mineral water. The lighting systems can be controlled through touchscreens and keypads and Oyster has installed all the latest AV, mediaand hi-fi systems. When it comes to interior design, Oyster has embraced the trend of full customisation, so all furniture and fittings are modified to suit every individual.

During the last year, Oyster has launched two new models, extending its range that now stretches from just under 60 feet to 123 feet. There was the launch of the entirely custom made 123-foot Oyster 1225, the ultimate super sailing yacht. Then in May 2019, the new Oyster 565 was launched, sailing under Tower Bridge on the River Thames at sunset as Oyster owners celebrated at a party on the walkways above. At just under 60 foot, the Oyster 565 is an all-ocean yacht for anyone setting out on the adventure of a lifetime.

Oyster’s plan for the years ahead is simple but ambitious: ‘We’re looking forward to 2020. We plan to build a sustainable British company that will be around for years to come,’ says Hadida, ‘and we are optimistic that our impeccable quality, design and safety standards, for which we’re historically renowned, will enable us to do this.’

bitter end - june

Dear BOAT: “I instructed the captain to tell the rock star: the owner doesn’t do credit”

Every month, Charlotte Hogarth-Jones gets the skinny on all the most treacherous tales from the high seas...

I was thrilled when my broker once contacted me about a particular yacht charter booking: an international rock star, albeit now somewhat faded, whose numerous number-one hits I could remember singing along to in my youth.

There was just one sticking point – they wouldn’t agree to paying the customary Advance Provisioning Allowance of 30 per cent up front. Due to a previous bad experience, they wanted to pay 10 per cent, and then fund the rest as the charter progressed. Reports of the rock star’s wealth led me to believe that they could purchase the boat several times over, and so I agreed. Mistake – big mistake.

The charter started well, with the star, his spouse, children and factotum happily aboard and berthed in a rather expensive marina for the first two nights. They entertained several guests in suitably extravagant style, and soon our captain was in frantic communication with the broker about the dwindling pot of funds. Several demands to the guest resulted in a drip feed of more euros. This coincided with the vessel relocating to probably the most exclusive marina in the area, where another party was thrown.

The following day the captain again sought top-up funding, this time unsuccessfully. He contacted me and I told him to officially notify the broker and the primary guest – should funds not be received by noon the next day, the vessel was to immediately leave the marina and go to anchor offshore. Furthermore, if funds had not been received by close of business the same day, the captain was to disembark the guests with a message to the star: “The owner doesn’t do credit.”

Remarkably, another dribble of funds arrived, thus preventing the image of a refugee rock star, and from then on the factotum would accompany the stewards and chef when provisioning occurred and pay the bills by credit card directly.

At the same time the captain almost tore out what remained of his hair while keeping the accounts and having to provide twice-daily balances to the star. Strangely our guest was also hounded by paparazzi everywhere, despite our ensuring client confidentiality for every other trip…

Our crew had been pleased to see the fabled rocker – but not so pleased when the star “forgot” to leave a tip. We were surprised to receive their charter request again the following year. It was politely declined.

What does it mean to be a yacht owner-operator?

  • Desiree van Welsum
  • June 12, 2019

yacht no destination owner

If you have been following my blogs so far, or if you have been around people who talk “boat speak” (e.g brokers, dealers, boat show exhibitors, etc.), you may have heard the term “owner-operator”.

What does that term mean, and what does being an owner-operator involve?

Being an owner-operator essentially means that you not only own a boat, but that you are also running, operating and managing the boat without any professional crew (captain, engineer, deckhand, or stew) onboard. There are different aspects to being an owner-operator, including day-to-day yacht management, running the boat, planning trips, provisioning for trips, and all the different ways in which you can enjoy your yacht.

Let’s start with the day-to-day management of the boat.

If you are not using the services of a yacht management company, you will then be responsible for setting-up a maintenance schedule that includes items such a regular detailing of the boat, bottom cleaning by a diver (depending on where you keep your boat), keeping check of the condition and running order of the engines and generators, various fluid levels, and scheduling service and/or warranty items and repairs as required.

In some cases, it may involve taking the boat to a boat or service yard for haul-out or hiring a yacht captain to do so. Putting your yacht on a lift is exciting, and nerve-wracking as well. It is quite an amazing sight to see the yacht riding around a yard in slings, especially when the lift operator is walking around with a remote control!

Lift operator

What are the limitations to being an owner-operator?

The main limitation is the size of the vessel (the LOA) you can safely operate. Indeed, with just two people (who are not trained professionals) there will be limits, not only in terms of moving the boat, but also docking the boat. Luckily, new technologies make piloting and docking the boat much easier for owner-operators.

However, that’s only one part of any trip. Arriving at a destination, especially when there are no local dockhands to help, is a lot of work for one person to disembark onto the dock, and then tie up. It is even more work when the weather conditions are less than ideal. In addition, the size and weight of fenders and lines will also increase with the size of the boat and become more cumbersome to handle.

If there are no local detailers around to wash down the boat on arrival (which is highly desirable, especially if you have been out in wet conditions and in salt water), washing the boat quickly becomes a chore that increases with the size and volume of the boat.

There may also be some limitations on the operational side.

In my experience, at least one person needs to have a decent amount of mechanical and engineering knowledge, and preferably some “MacGyver skills”.  Indeed, something will invariably break down at some point along the way, and there is not always a professional nearby who can fix, or troubleshoot the problem.

Finally, you will also need at least some technical, meteorological and navigational knowledge to operate the boat safely, especially when cruising in unfamiliar places with variable weather and water conditions. Even if you checked the weather, there is always a chance you run into some unexpected storms and squalls.

Underway

With the yacht ready to go, you can start planning trip itineraries. This is where all the fun starts, even when you are still at home. Indeed, you can do background research on places and cruising grounds you would like to visit. Using the various navigational apps available today, it is possible to trace your route at home and then download the itinerary to the devices and MFDs on the boat the next time you are onboard.

In most cases, you will probably need to make reservations for the boat if you are planning to stay in marinas. You will be asked the length, beam and draft of the boat, as well as the type of power connection you will need on the dock (e.g. 30, 50 or 100 amps, single or double).

The next step is to provision the yacht for your trip.

This of course depends on how long you are going away for, where you are going (will there be local grocery stores and restaurants?), what your refrigeration capacity is like, and how many people – and who – are coming on the trip. While it may seem like a bit of a chore (and you can hire the services of a company that will do the provisioning for you), I actually find it quite enjoyable as it is all part of the fun of preparing and planning your trip, and contributes to the anticipation building up to it!

One other key part of provisioning is for the boat itself. In addition to the necessary cleaning supplies, it is important to carry a certain amount of spare parts such as Racor fuel filters, impellers, light bulbs for your navigation and anchor lights, possibly a water pump, as well as any fluids you may need such as generator oil, outboard engine oil for the tender, cooling and windscreen washer fluids. Ah, and a tow boat membership, just in case!

With your itinerary traced out, and uploaded on your navigational devices, and with your engine room, fridges and cabinets provisioned, it is time to go! The sound of the engines starting is the signal that fun times have begun, and always gives me butterflies in my stomach.

The feeling of freedom as you pull away from the dock and leave land behind is simply unique.

One advantage of being an owner-operator is that you do not have to deal with crew on board, making the experience more private and intimate… cruising just as a couple, or with just friends and family. Of course, you can still hire a captain and/or a stew on occasions where you want to focus on entertaining your guests, and/or if want to be able to enjoy a glass of bubbly or other drinks while underway with guests.

Either way… engines on, and off you go!
