Greece is the fastest-growing arena in luxury yachting. For owners and investors, it is also the least understood. We publish the numbers, the structures and the playbook that brokers don't put in the brochure.
| Factor | Greece | Italy / France / Croatia |
|---|---|---|
| Charter VAT | 12% | 22% (IT) · 20% (FR) · 13% (HR) |
| Berthing cost | Materially lower | Premium pricing (Monaco, Porto Cervo) |
| Season length | April – November | May – October in most bases |
| Market direction | Growing 11–15%/yr | Mature, single-digit growth |
| Running costs | 10–15% below Western Med | Benchmark |
The right structure depends on how much you want to use the yacht and how much you want it to earn. The wrong one costs seven figures over a ownership cycle. The playbook walks each path end to end.
A 30-metre yacht is a €6–10M asset with €600K–1M in annual running costs. Whether it becomes a liability or a performing asset is decided by decisions made before the purchase: structure, registry, base and charter program.
The Playbook includes full five-year P&L models, conservative to optimistic charter scenarios, and the tax treatment of each structure — the same models we would hand a family office.
