- The index measurement
Latest observation: €3,088/ft across 10,199 eligible listings. Catalog composition can change between snapshots; this is an asking-price benchmark, not a closed-sales index.
The observed age ladder above and the fitted curve answer different questions. The ladder compares whatever is listed in each age band today — different classes, sizes and specifications — so it is a composition snapshot. The fitted 3.6%/yr comes from comparing model years inside the same measurement (median €/ft), weighted by the listings behind each year. Expect the two to differ, especially in the youngest bands. Both still pool the whole catalogue. Re-run inside each brand, the same comparison gives 6.3%/yr — that is the number to apply to one yacht.
Key facts
- 167,522 public yacht listings are currently visible: 11,583 for sale and 156,157 for charter.
- The eligible sale sample — listings in every currency, converted to EUR at the day's rate — has a median asking price of €110,670 and €3,088 per foot.
- Inside a brand, median asking price per foot is 6.3% lower for each additional year of age — the listings-weighted median of 135 brand fits over 4,503 listings. This is the rate that applies to one yacht.
- Pooled across the whole catalogue, the same model-year comparison gives 3.6%/yr (middle half of the model-year comparisons spans 4.3 percentage points) over 7,362 eligible listings, model years 1997–2026. That figure also carries the market mix — the changing brand and size composition between model years — so it describes the market, not a single hull, and it is not repeat-sale history.
- 31 eligible listings share the exact median asking price, so the median moves in steps rather than continuously.
- Every published segment clears a minimum sample of 8; excluded observations are counted below.
Follow the evidence from market to yacht
Each page exposes its sample, assumptions and limitations. Asking-price research supports a decision; it does not replace closed-sale evidence or a condition survey.

Read the inclusion rules
Statistics use current public for-sale listings in every currency, converted to EUR at the day's exchange rate, with a converted asking price above €10,000 and a known hull length. Observations outside €250–€250,000 per foot are treated as likely unit or price-entry errors. A category or age band needs at least 8 eligible listings before it is published.
In this snapshot, no category groups or age bands are withheld — every published segment clears the sample floor.
Market data is the starting point, not the final valuation
Compare current listings, then use a hull-specific estimate and an independent marine survey before committing funds.
