Hanse Yachting World Charter Management
The easiest way to your own Hanse yacht!
Owning a yacht often seems like a big commitment. Along with the financial aspect of purchasing and servicing a yacht, you must arrange for the berth, regular maintenance and check-ups while you are also spending time of your long-awaited holidays to get the yacht ready for your sailing trip every time you want to use it. If you would like to own a yacht without having to worry about anything, or if you are not sure you could afford your dream yacht, maintain it or if you think that you will not be using it enough to be worth buying it, our Yachting World charter management is something that would fit in your plans.
The Hanse Yachting World Charter Management program is essentially our range of services that ensure our care of your yacht and its charter guests, making sure that your yacht reaches its charter income potential and retains as much value as possible over the years. This program is designed to make the yacht ownership as easy as it gets while it will also cover your yachts running costs and in certain charter management models bring additional profit, making your yacht purchase an investment.

What about yacht Maintenance?
Sometimes the build year of the yacht is not that important – regardless of the yachts age, a properly maintained yacht is the only way to a satisfied charter guest and at the same time the key to a successful business process. Consequently, our professionally educated staff constantly supervises the condition of the yacht and its equipment. With regular services we act in advance in order to prevent any bigger malfunctions and to provide a safe and high-quality vacation for charter guests. With continuous supervision and maintenance, we ensure the longevity of your yacht and equipment as well as a higher price in charter and a higher market value when you decide to sell the yacht. The owner of the yacht has a permanent insight in maintenance processes and their cost – the yachts that we hold in our bases are the best evidence of the quality of service that we provide.
As an official Hanse representative, we guarantee high-quality aftersales support with prompt processing of claims throughout warranty and after the warranty has passed. In fact, we will make all the warranty claims for you to ensure the yacht is always in top condition.
What if the yacht gets damaged?
All yachts in our charter fleet are covered with a full CASCO insurance policy. Damage repair costs are covered by the insurance policy or the charter client responsible for the damage. Repairs are done either by us as an official Hanse representative or a third-party specialized service, depending on the nature of the necessary repairs.

How do I get to use my yacht?
In the Hanse Yachting World Ownership you are entitled to 10 owners weeks within the charter season (from April 1st to October 31st) with maximum 3 weeks in July and August and maximum 3 consecutive weeks. You can book the owners weeks in advance. Bear in mind that the more weeks you use the less income you can expect. You can also use additional owners weeks outside of the charter season. When using the owners’ week, the owner is supposed to cover only the costs of yacht preparation and local taxes without paying the charter fee.
In the Hanse Yachting World Partnership model you can use the yacht for up to 3 weeks including 2 weeks in high season.

In what condition is the yacht after the program and what is its market value?
In a very good and fully functional condition. Of course, the result of chartering is a higher level of wear of the yacht, which can be taken care of with minimal investment and reconstruction. In any case, most of the charter yachts in our fleet are in better condition than many private yachts, due to the fact that they are constantly supervised and regularly maintained by professionals in our charter company.
In our experience, after 5 years in the Hanse Yachting World Charter Management program the yacht’s market value is at least 65% of its initial purchase value. This is also one of the advantages when choosing a Hanse yacht, as it is a preferred private owner’s brand and there are not that many used Hanse yachts for sale in any particular moment, as is the case with other yacht brands suitable for charter.
