Buying a boat or a yacht is a big investment so you need to take time to think it through. The good thing about buying your own yacht is that you can do anything you like with the yacht. You can add your own gadgets, equipment, furnitures and accessories and customize it to make it comfortable for you and your family. You can also store your own things and personal belongings on the boat so whenever you go on the boat, everything you need is just there. For those buying a yacht, it’s like a home away from home, a comfortable place for you and your family to spend the weekend without the hassles of packing etc. You can use your yacht anytime and go anywhere with it. However, owning your own yacht requires a lot of efforts on maintenance. You need to find a place to moor or berth your yacht and find people to maintain your boat. If you do not have a boat licence and depending on how big your yacht is, you may need to find a captain and crew to look after your boat. Then there’s all the maintenance costs that may be quite hefty including the berthing/mooring charges, engine maintenance, boat cleaning especially the boat bottom although you may be able to offset some of the charges by renting it out when you are not using it. From a financial point of view, a yacht/boat depreciates in value as soon as you buy it so unlike a house, it is unlikely that you will be able to sell if for more than what you pay for it. So buying a boat for your own use is really a money losing proposition but if money is not a problem and you just want your own yacht, then buy a boat and most of the problems can be solved if you hire the right people to look after it for you. But for those who do not need to own anything, renting a boat or yacht can save you a lot of hassles. You do not need to waste time and money maintaining it and looking after it. You just rent whenever you like but of course the rental charges don’t come cheap but you can rent different yachts each time and just walk away after the rental with nothing to worry about. For those new to yachting, renting is a good way to try things out and see what you like. There are many yachts listed on ecRent so just browse through them and see if there’s anything you like!
