The engine room of »Crowbridge«
uses the yacht himself and charters it out to recoup operating
costs.
German entrepreneur Guido Krass, on the other hand,
built the 85 m long »Bold« at his own shipyard. Krass
founded Silver Yachts in Australia in 2003 and regularly
takes delivery of newbuilds there, using them for a certain
time and then reselling them. The »Bold« silhouette is likened
to a naval destroyer, but it is luxuriously equipped
with eight cabins for 16 guests and can reach a top speed
of 24 kn. Expected to come onto the market in the medium
term its sister ship is already under construction.
Many other shipyards such as Bering, Ulstein, Kleven,
Van der Valk and Cantiere delle Marche are also active in
this specialised segment, which is sure to grow if the tight
berth situation in the Med does not ease and especially if
Generation Z joins the ranks of superyacht owners.
