As a synonym for top luxury, it has been equated with the royal family, celebrities and the rich.
However, with the increasingly diverse functions and designs of yachts, “playing yachts” has become a fashion and popular sports leisure way.
Who can go yachting in China?
Generally speaking, families with an average monthly income of more than 20,000 yuan can afford to rent a yacht, while those with an annual income of more than 1 million yuan are suitable for buying a yacht.
Moreover, the cost of buying a yacht should not be higher than 10% of its assets, so if you buy a yacht worth 500,000 yuan, your assets should be more than 5 million yuan.
On the sea a “home” : talk about buying a boat those things yacht price from hundreds of thousands to tens of millions of different, small boat between 200 ~2 million yuan;
The mainstream leisure type is mostly in the 1 ~4 million yuan, the boat length is generally between 28 feet and 45 feet;
Business yachts over 45 feet in length can cost upwards of 5 million yuan;
Prices over 80 feet can reach tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars.
The larger the size and the more luxurious the interior, the more expensive the yacht.
In general, the price of a yacht made in Taiwan is two-thirds that of a yacht made in the United States and half that of an Italian yacht.
Yachts in Britain are even more expensive.
Yacht purchase is divided into “present boat purchase” and “yacht order” two kinds.
Buying an imported yacht is more complicated than a domestic boat.
The steps of purchasing a boat are as follows: 1. Determine the type to be purchased; 2.
2. Confirm the date and port of delivery or address of delivery;
3. Signing purchase contracts with distributors;
4. Payment for goods;
5. After the yacht arrives at the place of delivery, both parties shall handle the inspection and handover procedures.
The steps to order a yacht are slightly different: 1. Determine the brand, model and accessories of the yacht you want to buy; 2.
2. Sign purchase contracts with distributors;
3. Confirm the date and port of delivery upon confirmation by the shipyard;
4. Pay the deposit;
5. The dealer places the order with the shipyard and pays the deposit to the shipyard, and the shipyard starts manufacturing;
6. Full payment will be paid before the yacht is built and shipped (50% will be paid in some cases and 20% of the balance will be retained);
7. When the yacht arrives at the port, handle relevant customs entry procedures and domestic transportation;
8. Both parties shall handle the inspection and handover procedures.
It takes at least two to three months from signing the contract to shipping.
During this waiting period, the agent will begin to apply for your berth, license and insurance.
You will need to start taking basic courses or getting a license.
Buying a boat is actually like buying a car, the price of the yacht is not just a single boat cost so simple, buying a boat involved in the expenditure of yacht standard, matching devices, packaging costs, transportation costs, insurance, customs duties, value-added tax, service fees and so on.
In addition, after the purchase will be yacht maintenance fees, repair fees, licensing fees, waterway use fees, parking rental fees and other fees.
The payment process can be divided into three parts. 30% of the total price shall be taken as the signing fee when the contract is signed. When the agent shows you the shipping certificate (at this time, your ship has been packed and ready to be shipped to the port of China), you shall pay 50% of the total price (at this time, the agent has advanced the full shipping price).
At THE TIME OF DELIVERY, you HAVE CONFIRMED THAT the ship’s TYPE, SPECIFICATIONS and equipment meet the order, and have completed the procedures of launching trial voyage and transfer registration, then 20% of the balance should be paid.
You can also buy a boat with a loan. The dealer will help you with this business at the bank.
The above is a small series to introduce you to the problem of what people can play yachts in China, more knowledge please pay attention to.
