Compare Yacht Charter Management Programs
Through our partnership with Dream Yacht Sales and other yacht management companies, we offer versatile options to own a luxury yacht operating in one of many exotic locales. Our programs offer options that help you enjoy your yacht more by avoiding most of, or part of, the operational responsibilities and expense of traditional boat ownership.
The Catamaran Guru team supports you through the entire process of program selection based on your travel aspirations, financial goals, and preferred use of your resources. Our programs include pre-approved financing and guaranteed monthly payments. You may be eligible for substantial business tax benefits. Our personalized service prepares you to purchase and to own the yacht of your dreams as well as help you plan an exit strategy to maximize return on your investment by selling at the peak resale value.
Our charter management programs offer a large variety of sail and power boat models from nine well-known brands (monohulls and catamarans) in 35+ worldwide base locations. Whether you prefer a sail, power, or crewed yacht, we offer more choices than other similar yacht ownership programs. The table below offers an overview of each of our top programs. Call the Catamaran Guru team today to learn more and get advice on which program and what model boat fits your sailing preferences and business or lifestyle goals.
