Yacht Charter in St Martin

St Martin yacht charter

Why charter a yacht in st martin.

St. Martin is a small island, but it's packed with plenty of things to do and places to see. The island is known for its award-winning restaurants, mega-resorts, international shopping, cafes, and bistros, and a cosmopolitan atmosphere. But only a stone's throw away from the busy streets are beautiful natural scenery and crystalline blue waters that are just waiting to be enjoyed. Thus, a yacht charter in St. Martin is truly one of the best ways to enjoy the island. And with an abundance of itineraries, chartering a yacht is not just an option in St. Martin, but it is a necessary must!

What are yacht charter prices in St Martin?

You can choose from simple monohulls to take you from one beach to another, or a sailing catamaran cruising along the coast, or a superyacht that acts like its very own cruising resort. Whatever fits your fancy, you can find a luxury boat in St. Martin. For prices, an average 45-foot monohull for a group of 6 adults can cost around $2,500 per day, while a catamaran of the same size can cost around $4,200 per day. A superyacht, complete with a VIP crew, all-inclusive food, and activities, can cost around $450,000 for a week's rental.

When is the yachting season in St Martin?

There are two seasons in St. Martin; one is the dry season and the other is the wet season. The wet season is from June to November, as it also falls under the hurricane season, while the dry season is from December to May, making it the ideal yachting season in St. Martin.

St Martin yacht charter for a day

With an abundance of beaches and bays, one full day of chartering around St. Martin is simply not enough, but if you only have time for 6 to 8 hours of cruising, then a full day yacht charter is perfect for getting a little taste of everything on the island. A typical yacht charter for a day takes you to nearby beaches and bays, with swimming, snorkeling, diving, or paddleboarding some of the activities you can experience. If you're traveling as a family, Friar's Bay is for you. It has gentle waters and swimmable waves, perfect for kids to swim in the shore.

If you fancy an adults-only beach, head over to Orient Bay where clothing is optional on the white sand beach of this vibrant area. Alternatively, if you fancy visiting one location with multiple sites, visit Cupecoy Beach with 3 beaches surrounded by limestone cliffs. It is also the last beach before crossing the border to the Dutch region of the island. To end your day on a full-day yacht charter, sip some rum on the deck as you view the beautiful sunset on the horizon.

St Martin yacht charter overnight

An overnight yacht charter is truly a romantic and exciting adventure in St. Martin. From Marigot, the capital, head to Anse Marcel, which is a tropical dream beach known for its upscale class bars and restaurants, perfect for couples and families. From there, head to Pinel Island, a charming, tiny island on the north edge of St. Martin, located on the Marine Park and offers calm, turquoise waters. Anchor here for the night and enjoy watching the stars from the deck.

Come morning, you can head to Le Galion Beach or also known as Coconut Grove, which is found southeast of Orient Bay. It has a laid back atmosphere and surrounded by a coral reef, making it perfect for diving and snorkeling. It is also a favorite spot among surfers, windsurfers, and kitesurfers. Head back to Marigot and watch the sunset before docking in the marina.

St Martin yacht charter for a week

Do you have more time on your hands? And do you want to experience the true beauty of St. Martin and its surrounding islands? Then hop onboard your yacht charter for a full week liveaboard adventure. Here is a sample itinerary for your St. Martin one week liveaboard adventure:

Day 1: Grand Case

This small village to the north of Marigot is the gourmet capital of the Caribbean. It would be a shame if you visited St. Martin and did not set foot in this village. Indulge in a French or decadent Creole-inspired meal and stroll around the village, shopping for bread, pastries, and rum. In the afternoon, you can head to Creole Rock for an hour or two of snorkeling, then head back to your yacht to enjoy your first night in the water.

Day 2: Orient Bay

A two-hour cruise will bring you to Orient Bay, a famous beach for its clothing-optional dress code. If you're traveling with kids, you might want to skip this bay and head to Tintamarre instead, where you can have lunch on a white-sand beach and snorkel in shallow waters.

Day 3: Gustavia

Visit the island of St. Barths, which is dubbed as the Caribbean's version of St. Tropez. Shop in the designer boutiques, enjoy a cup of coffee in any of the cafes and enjoy French pastries and snacks in any of the bistros. In the afternoon, head to Colombier beach where a secluded bay is yours for the night.

Day 4: Philipsburg

Cruise for 2 hours and head your way to the capital of St. Martin's Dutch region. This bustling town has a cosmopolitan appeal with its duty-free shopping, chic boutiques, and vibrant nightlife. A must-visit is Front Street, which is a mile-long street filled with designer shops and boutiques.

Day 5: Road Bay, Anguilla

Cruise for one hour, and you'll arrive at one of the most popular anchorages in the Leeward Islands. Road Bay is a laid back and vibrant place, filled with bars and resorts on the waterfront, and home to 7 shipwrecks, making the bay the wreck diving capital of the Caribbean.

Day 6: Crocus Bay, Anguilla

Swim, snorkel, and dive the caves and reefs in this bay, then after lunch, make your way to Prickly Pear Cay, with its white sand beach and colorful reefs teeming with marine life. After lunch, on Day 7, cruise for a couple of hours before you arrive and disembark in Marigot.

Wedding yacht charter in St Martin

As romantic as a wedding can be, a wedding yacht charter in St. Martin perfectly blends the chic ambiance of the French and Dutch villages, with the laidback natural scenery and culture. A yacht charter for a wedding lets you choose between a wedding on a beach, on a private island, or on the yacht itself. Whatever you choose, one thing's for sure, a St. Martin yacht charter wedding will truly make for some spectacular memories.

Luxury yacht holiday in St Martin

As an island for the upscale holidaymakers, a luxury yacht holiday in St. Martin is what dreams are made of. Imagine dining in a French restaurant overlooking the blue waters, with weather that's virtually sunny all-year-round, and a superyacht just waiting for you to enjoy. A luxury yacht holiday in St. Martin is indeed worth it. St. Martin offers two cultures on one island, but what captures holidaymakers in this Caribbean island is the beauty of the natural scenery. From hopping from one beach to another, to one island to the next, a yacht charter will genuinely make your St. Martin holiday the vacation of a lifetime.

375  Crewed Luxury Yachts for Charter in Saint Martin

Saint Martin Yacht Charters

A Saint Martin luxury yacht charter truly offers the best of both worlds, with the French in the north known as ‘Saint Martin’ and the Dutch in the south known as ‘Sint Maarten’ combining to offer a delightful blend of extravagance and vast bucolic countryside. Whether its peace and quiet, or the bustle of beaches and shopping centres you are looking for, Saint Martin can cater to every kind of luxury yacht charter vacation.

Saint Martin Luxury Yacht Charter Guide Perhaps lesser known than its Caribbean counterparts, the 87-square-kilometre island of Saint Martin is found nestled in the Antilles islands, around 300 kilometres east of Puerto Rico . Renowned for its lengthy sunshine hours, powder-soft beaches, turquoise waters, local fish cuisine and secret coves, St Martin offers the complete charter package. From May to July, temperatures can soar as high as 31 ºC (88°F), with over 13 hours of sunshine experienced in June and July during a summer luxury yacht charter.                                                                

Yacht Charters in Saint Martin Saint Martin luxury yacht charters usually start at the island, with a plethora of superyachts based here for the winter season. The island is divided roughly 60/40 between France and Netherlands-owned territory, with St Martin the more peaceful and European side, and St Maarten offering a livelier and more traditionally Caribbean charter experience.

Charter Itineraries in Saint Martin Saint Martin is one of a number of enchanting islands scattered in the Caribbean Sea between North and South America. Its proximity to Antigua , St Kitts and the British and U.S. Virgin Islands often means charter itineraries can incorporate visits to its neighbours for a varied and insightful charter vacation.

Chartering a Private Yacht in the Saint Martin To find out more about renting a private luxury charter yacht in Saint Martin, simply get in touch with your preferred yacht charter broker to start planning your ideal itinerary of discovery in this tiny island of Caribbean paradise.

Ahhh.. This is Freedom

What everyone is saying.

“Can’t beat the serenity of being under sail. Wonderful cocktails and a delicious lunch… Enjoyed the entire experience from casting off to mooring.”

“Captain Andre seems to have a knack for finding sheltered coves where guests can snorkel, paddle-board, or float on the huge lily pad (perhaps with another of those signature cocktails in hand?) …Renegades is definitely a cut above!”

“We already did quite a few boat trips on St.Maarten and we only come to one conclusion: The trip with Renegades was truly something special in every way. We never got pampered like this before on a boat”

“We celebrated my wife’s birthday with an overnight trip that was truly amazing. The boat was absolutely gorgeous – from the above deck areas to the spacious, comfortable and beautifully appointed cabins. The food was plentiful and downright gourmet!”

“…Freedom is a luxurious experience – from the welcome drinks, the bbq lunch & snorkelling excursion- we enjoyed every moment. The catamaran is in immaculate condition and a truly gorgeous vessel.”

“Having lived in Sint Maarten for almost 8 years and having been on about 30 boat trips over the years, I can say without any reservations that our trip aboard Freedom from Renegades was our mast favourite by far!”

Superyacht Charter St. Maarten

Marrying Dutch, French, Caribbean, and Creole cultures, the vibrant island of Sint Maarten has a lot to offer during a luxury crewed yacht charter.

The duality of St. Maarten makes it well suited for charter clients of all types, as the world’s smallest dual-nation really packs a punch. If you’re looking for an island holiday that offers it all, you’ll find it ashore here. The Dutch-governed south is known as Sint Maarten, whereas the French-governed north is referred to as Saint Martin. Together, the two halves create an island unlike any other in the Caribbean. Each has a distinct personality of their mother nation but with Caribbean charm. With various cultures, activities, and cuisine, the island of St Maarten has become a popular destination for the jet set, including luxury superyacht charters.

Setting off on your St. Maarten yacht charter  

St Maarten’s international airport and the island’s proximity to other Caribbean hot spots in the Leeward Islands, such as St. Barths and Anguilla, make it a fantastic location to commence a superyacht charter. 

Most superyachts will position themselves in Simpson Bay for embarkation, but if you plan to spend time on and around the island itself, many prefer Marigot Bay, a small town on the French half of the island. The town itself is filled with familiar French smells as the scent of fresh-baked bread and pastries wafts from the cafes and bistros.

If you want to enjoy a luxury St Martin yacht charter, the charter brokers at Northrop & Johnson can assist. We have the largest selection of yachts to charter in the Caribbean, including in St. Maarten, and can craft an incredible charter itinerary to meet your desired vacation experience.

St Maarten’s beaches are spectacular

The beaches in St Maarten can only be described as paradise — all offer fine white sands and bright turquoise waters. On both sides of the island are countless, pristine beaches where you can enjoy lazing in the sunshine and enjoying the views; some even offer great snorkeling right off the shore. Numerous dive and snorkel sites around the island can be accessed via boat.

If you are searching for true paradise, look no further than a yacht charter in St. Maarten. Contact the charter experts at Northrop & Johnson to plan your luxury getaway and for the best selection of superyachts.

Best Yachts for Charter in St. Maarten

Motor yachts for charter in st. maarten, sailing yachts for charter in st. maarten, st. maarten yacht charter faq, why charter a private yacht in st. maarten.

There are so many reasons why you should charter a private crewed yacht in St. Maarten! Some of the bluest waters in the Caribbean, a picturesque coastline, superb shopping, and a vibrant nightlife are just some of the reasons to embark on a St. Martin yacht charter. St. Maarten boasts some superb attractions to suit all, from its incredible zip-line to lush rainforests and its vibrant capital, a fantastic destination for designer shopping and gourmet dining options.  Finally, St. Maarten has very low VAT for visiting superyachts, adding to its appeal. 

What are the top attractions to explore while on a yacht charter in St. Maarten?

Part of St. Maarten’s wide appeal is that it offers a wonderful selection of things to see and do.

Explore Grande Case

Visit Grande Case on the northern coast, and you’ll find a charming historic fishing village that is more West Indian in style. Pick up some artisanal keepsakes in the local boutiques as a reminder of your visit, or enjoy a beverage or meal at one of the local bars or restaurants with stunning views.

Visit Philipsburg

St Maarten’s capital, Philipsburg, is a colorful hub where most of the island’s designer stores are found. It is a great place to pick up a few chic pieces before leaving the island.

Experience The Saint Maarten Zip-Line

For adrenaline seekers, the St. Maarten zip-line, on the island’s Dutch side, is considered one of the island’s top attractions. Enjoy the hair-raising experience of dropping 1,050-feet through the rainforest while enjoying incredible panoramic views.

Superb Dining & Nightlife

There are 140 different nationalities residing on the island, and unsurprisingly this has garnered an international mix of cuisines and flavors. Sint Maarten/Saint Martin is often described as the culinary capital of the Caribbean, and a handful of fine-dining restaurants can boast Michelin stars. Enjoy European food with a fusion of Caribbean flavors. After dinner, St. Maarten continues to deliver with exuberant night spots and several casinos.

Wreck Diving

There’s no better destination to explore the underwater world than St. Martin, which boasts superb visibility and vibrant coral reefs and shipwrecks teeming with marine life. HMS Proselyte is one of the best wreck dives, a Royal Navy frigate that sunk in 1801, which sits in water just 15 meters deep.

What's better - a St. Maarten or St. Barths yacht charter?

Whether you prefer a St. Maarteen or St. Barts yacht charter will depend on your desired charter vacation experience. St. Barts is often referred to as the St. Tropez of the Caribbean, offering exclusive experiences and an ultra-chic atmosphere. St. Maarten, on the other hand, is more low-key yet still offers plenty of refined experiences. An experienced charter expert, such as the team at Northrop & Johnson, will be able to advise on what Caribbean destination will best suit your needs based on your desired getaway.

What type of yacht should I charter in St. Maarten?

Your choice of yacht that you charter in St. Maarten will be based on your unique personal preferences, the onboard amenities you desire, as well as how many guests you will be traveling with. Key choices to consider include:

• Motor yacht – great for large family groups that want to maximize onboard amenities. Motor yachts are also more accessible, with some including lifts to all decks. Northrop & Johnson boasts an incredible selection of motor yachts available for charter, from 30-meters to 100-meters plus. Choose from luxury motor yachts by pedigree shipbuilders and an incredible range of onboard facilities, from luxury cinema rooms to helipads and full-service spas.
• Sailing yachts – the vessel of choice for sailing enthusiasts; hoist up the sails and enjoy cruising St. Maarten’s coastline while hearing only the sound of the wind in the sails and the Caribbean Sea lapping at the boat’s hull. St. Martin boats excellent trade winds, making it a popular sailing destination. Sailing yachts are also popular with those seeking an eco-friendly cruising option.
• Mulit-hull vessels – catamarans are the most readily available multi-hull boats on the charter market, which can sometimes include options for sailing and fuel-based cruising. Multi-hull vessels boast superb volume, making them great for families or large groups of friends. Their exceptional sea-keeping abilities also ensure enhanced comfort levels.

What should I pack for a yacht charter in St. Maarten?

Your luxury yacht will come fully equipped and provisioned, meaning you only need to worry about personal items. The weather is wonderfully warm in St. Maarten, so light-weight clothing is required, along with swim gear and sun protection. Here’s a handy list of what you’ll need to pack for your St. Martin charter vacation:

• Travel documents – passport/visas/insurance details/debit and credit cards
• Clothing – lightweight, breathable apparel, including shorts, t-shirts, and swim gear for swimming and lounging dockside or on the beach. Don’t forget suitable footwear, including a sturdy pair of trainers for hiking and flip-flops or sandals for on-shore activities.
• Sun protection – the Caribbean sun is strong, so you’ll need plenty of SPF protection, including waterproof suncream, a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and a rash vest for prolonged periods in the water.
• Toiletries and medications – you’ll need to pack your preferred toiletries along with any prescription medications. Due to the sun, a quality after-sun lotion can help soothe sunburnt skin.
• Entertainment – most charter yachts boast state-of-the-art entertainment systems and board games, but you’ll likely want to pack a couple of your favorite books, a Kindle, your phone, and iPad. Don’t forget your chargers!

If you forget something, then you don’t need to worry. St. Maarten boasts plenty of shops for supplies. Your crew will also be happy to pop ashore and purchase any essential items you have forgotten, leaving you free to relax and enjoy your yacht charter rental.

• Motor yacht – great for large family groups that want to maximize onboard amenities. Motor yachts are also more accessible, with some including lifts to all decks. Northrop & Johnson boasts an incredible selection of motor yachts available for charter, from 30-meters to 100-meters plus.

What's the best time to visit St Maarten aboard a luxury yacht?

The Caribbean superyacht season typically runs from November to the end of April, with peak season being the months of December and January. The shoulder season, April/May and November, are also a great time to visit. The low season is the Caribbean hurricane season, which runs from June to November. While the weather is still pleasant, you can expect higher rainfall, a more humid temperature, and a heightened risk of hurricanes.

High Season (December to March)

The superyacht high season in St. Maarten coincides with the winter months when the weather is generally pleasant, with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to mid-80s Fahrenheit (24-30°C). This is the peak tourist season, so the island can be crowded, and yacht charter prices will be at their most expensive. This period is ideal for those seeking a balance between great weather and a lively atmosphere.

Shoulder Season (May and November)

May and November are considered the shoulder seasons, so you may be able to find competitively priced charters, especially for last-minute getaways. The weather is still pleasant, but there may be occasional rain showers, especially in November.

Low Season (June to October)

St. Maarten experiences its low season during the hurricane season, which runs from June to November, with the peak hurricane season being August and October. If you choose to visit during the low season, your yacht charter specialist will track the weather, and there may be a risk of your charter being cancelled in the event of a hurricane.

No matter when you choose to visit St. Maarten, you will enjoy wonderfully warm weather, making it a great destination for enjoying time on the water under the Caribbean sun.

Where should I embark on my charter yacht in St. Maarten?

There are several marinas and harbors in St. Maarten where you can embark on your luxury yacht charter. These include:

• Simpson Bay Marina
• Port de Plaisance Marina
• Oyster Pond Marina
• Marigot Bay Marina

Your yacht charter specialist will make arrangements for you to embark at the most convenient destination.

How much is a St. Maarten yacht charter?

The cost of a luxury crewed yacht charter in St. Martin will depend on several factors, including your choice of charter yacht, the length of the yacht rental, and whether you are chartering in peak season or low season. The choice of yacht will significantly impact the total cost, with the world’s largest superyachts costing in excess of US$1 million per week. The entry price point for a private yacht charter in St. Maarten is around $50,000, plus applicable VAT. On top of this charter price, you can also expect to pay a further estimated 10% to cover the Advanced Provisioning Allowance or APA, which covers non-fixed costs, including fuel, provisioning, excursions, and crew tips.

What's the VAT for chartering a yacht in St. Maarten?

There is almost no VAT to pay on a yacht charter in St. Maarten, adding to its allure. Other Caribbean destinations which boast low tax for visiting superyachts include St. Barts and the Virgin Islands.

WHAT OUR GUESTS ARE SAYING

The largest yachts owned by tech billionaires, from Mark Zuckerberg to Jeff Bezos

• Megayachts have become a status symbol for the richest of the rich.
• In recent years, Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg have splurged on enormous boats.
• These are the biggest yachts owned by tech billionaires.

The average Joe celebrating a personal renaissance after, say, the end of a long-term relationship or when approaching a fresh decade might commemorate it with an ankle tattoo or a sports car. But if you're a billionaire, you may instead spend hundreds of millions on a yacht .

A few years after he and his wife divorced, Jeff Bezos shelled out on a megayacht. Last year, Bezos debuted the 127-meter vessel "Koru," a Māori symbol that signifies a fresh start — perhaps referring to that with his fiancée Lauren Sanchez.

Earlier this year, just before his 40th birthday, Mark Zuckerberg became the rumored owner of a yacht originally built for a Russian oligarch.

Superyachts have increasingly become ultrawealthy status symbols , providing highly secluded leisure and networking sites. They are — even more so than real estate — the single most expensive asset you can own.

"It's a bit of a celebration of your success in life, of wealth," Giovanna Vitelli, the chair of the Azimut Benetti Group, the world's biggest producer of superyachts, told Business Insider.

While many tech billionaires have bought yachts, the richest of the rich, like Bezos, Zuckerberg, and Oracle cofounder Larry Ellison, have gone bigger. Their boats are virtual palaces at sea, decked with amenities like gyms, spas, pools, nightclubs, and movie theaters.

A look at these megayachts — broadly defined as over 70 meters long, mostly custom-built, and often costing nine figures — offers a glimpse into how the .00001% lives. It's something few others will ever get to experience. Even chartering a yacht of this size for a week typically costs upwards of $1 million.

One major thing that hundreds of millions of dollars can buy is privacy. There are likely yachts that have not been publicly recorded or registered — for example, Evan Spiegel is rumored to own the 94-meter megayacht Bliss. In an industry ruled by discretion , deciphering who owns what is typically an exercise in stringing together many clues.

Here are the largest yachts owned by tech billionaires, listed in order of length.

Jeff Bezos: Koru and Abeona

Amazon founder Bezos' $500 million megayacht, the 127-meter Koru, made a splash last year as she crisscrossed the Mediterranean in her first summer at sea, with her 75-meter support vessel Abeona in tow.

The sailing yacht, which is hard to miss thanks to her massive size and unique design, was host to Bezos and his fiancée Lauren Sanchez's famous friends . The couple held an engagement party on board, which reportedly drew guests including Bill Gates, Ari Emanuel, and Leonardo DiCaprio. Just a week later, they were seen on the streets of Dubrovnik, Croatia, with Orlando Bloom, Katy Perry, and Usher.

Even before her completion, Koru made headlines. She drew the ire of some Dutch people, who vowed to hurl eggs after she was announced a historic bridge in Rotterdam might be taken apart to allow the Oceanco boat through. Luckily, the shipyard made alternative plans, and an egg crisis was averted.

Among yacht world insiders , Koru is widely praised for her craftsmanship.

"I heard back in 2018 or something that somebody had ordered a classic sailing yacht," one superyacht expert told BI. "You order 125 meters, that's not really going to be classic. But it is. I think it's pretty cool."

Mark Zuckerberg: Launchpad

Earlier this year, the yacht world was rife with rumors that Zuckerberg purchased Launchpad, a 118-meter superyacht originally designed for a sanctioned Russian businessman.

The ship made her maiden voyage in March, going from Gibraltar to St. Maarten and mooring in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Little is known about her interior, but photos show a large swimming pool and helipad. Her price, too, has been kept under wraps but is said to be nine figures.

Eric Schmidt: Whisper

Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt made waves last year when he agreed to buy the Alfa Nero , the yacht of a sanctioned Russian oligarch, for $67 million in an auction conducted by Antigua and Barbuda. But he backed out of the deal following legal issues over her true owner. He quietly purchased Kismet instead. The 95-meter-long Lürssen-built boat was formerly owned by the Jacksonville Jaguar's billionaire owner Shahid Khan . Schmidt renamed her Whisper.

The ship can fit 12 guests and a crew of 28, according to Moran Yacht & Ship, which oversaw her construction. She features a master deck with a private jacuzzi, full-service spa, lap pool, movie theater, and outdoor fireplace.

While her final sale price was not public, she was listed for 149 million euros (about $161 million at current exchange rates), and at a charity auction in January, one week aboard the ship went for $2.4 million, according to industry outlet Yacht Charter Fleet.

Barry Diller: Eos

Barry Diller , the chairman of digital media company IAC, co-owns the megayacht Eos with his wife, fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg , who is immortalized by a figurehead sculpture by Anh Duong.

One of the largest private sailing yachts in the world, the three-masted Lürssen schooner measures 93 meters long. She took three years to be built before being delivered to Diller in 2009, and since then, little has come to light about her interior and features.

The power couple has hosted many celebrities on the Eos, which spends her summers crisscrossing the Mediterranean and New Year ' s Eve in St. Barts . Over the years, guests have included Oprah Winfrey, Emma Thompson, Anderson Cooper, and Bezos, leading some to believe she provided inspiration for his Koru.

Jim Clark: Athena

Netscape founder Jim Clark purchased the 90-meter sailing yacht Athena in 2004.

"I could easily have built a 50- or 60-meter motor yacht that would have had the same space as Athena, but I was never really interested in building a motor yacht," he told Boat International in 2016. "To my eye, she's one of the most gorgeous large sailing yachts, maybe the most gorgeous large sailing yacht in the world."

Athena has room for 10 guests and 21 crewmembers, and the only change Clark says he'd make in her design is adding more space for his kids.

"If I was forced to change something, I would convert the office on the lower deck into a children's room," he said.

The former Stanford professor tried to sell her at various points — listing her for $95 million in 2012 , $69 million in 2016, and $59 million in 2017 — but she has yet to change hands.

Larry Ellison: Musashi

Oracle founder Larry Ellison has owned several superyachts over the years, including the Katana, the Ronin, and the Rising Sun — which he sold to fellow billionaire David Geffen .

He purchased his current boat, Musashi, in 2011 for a reported $160 million from custom-yacht giant Feadship.

Named after a famous samurai warrior, the 88-meter-long yacht has both Japanese and Art Deco-inspired design elements. She also boasts amenities including an elevator, swimming pool, beauty salon, gym, and basketball court.

Ellison is known for his extravagant spending — private islands, jets, a tennis tournament — and yachting is among his favorite and most expensive hobbies. He took up racing them in the 1990s and financed the America's Cup-winning BMW Oracle Racing team .

Laurene Powell Jobs: Venus

Steve Jobs' wife, investor and philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, inherited a nearly finished 78-meter yacht named Venus when the Apple cofounder died in 2011.

After spending years vacationing on Ellison's yachts, Jobs wanted one for himself. He designed Venus with French starchitect and decorator Philippe Starck , and she was worth $130 million at completion.

"Venus comes from the philosophy of minimum," Starck said of her design. "The elegance of the minimum, approaching dematerialization."

Jobs and Starck began working together in 2007, the designer told Vanity Fair , and held monthly meetings over four years. Venus was delivered in 2012 to Jobs' specification: six identical cabins, a design to ensure spaces of absolute silence, and the most up-to-date technology.

"There will never again be a boat of that quality again. Because never again will two madmen come together to accomplish such a task," Starck told the magazine. "It was not a yacht that Steve and I were constructing, we were embarked on a philosophical action, implemented according to a quasi-religious process. We formed a single brain with four lobes."

Charles Simonyi: Norn

Early Microsoft employee Charles Simonyi has purchased two megayachts from the German shipyard Lürssen: the 90-meter Norn and 71-meter Skat.

Delivered in 2023, Norn is full of luxe features, including an outdoor cinema and a pool floor that lifts to become a light-up dancefloor. She shares a militaristic style with Skat , which Simonyi sold in 2021.

Skats's name is derived from the Danish word for treasure, and she had a listing price of 56.5 million euros and was launched in 2002.

"The yacht is to be home away from my home in Seattle, and its style should match the style of the house, adapted for the practicalities of the sea," Simonyi once said .

Sergey Brin: Dragonfly

Google cofounder Sergey Brin has built a flotilla of yachts, boats, and toys known as the "Fly Fleet."

Named after a once-secret Google product , the largest of Brin's armada is the sleek Dragonfly , which boasts a movie theater and a helipad. The 73-meter-long vessel was built by the Australian shipyard Silver Yachts and can fit up to 18 guests and 16 crew members, according to SuperYacht Times.

Also in his fleet is the superyacht Butterfly, a mere 38 meters long. Often moored in the Bay Area, her crewmembers spend their downtime kitesurfing and giving swimming lessons to local kids.

The rest of his marine lineup includes a smaller boat called Firefly, as well as Jet Skis, foilboards, dinghies, and kiteboards. She takes a team of 50 full-time employees to manage, steer, and maintain the entire operation.
