Model guides

Yacht models, compared for Gulf waters

2026 pre-owned ranges · specs · what the survey must check

Gulf buyers shop by name: the Azimut they saw at The Pearl, the Majesty their neighbour swears by, the Lagoon that made island weekends look easy. These 13 guides cover those names with real 2026 ranges, the specs that matter on this coast, and the survey points that separate a kept boat from a cooked one.

Choosing the type in one minute

  • Catamarans (Lagoon 46/55): shallow Gulf water is their home; space per dollar nothing else matches.
  • Sailing monohull (Oceanis Yacht 62): for owners who actually sail, Muscat to the Indian Ocean.
  • Flybridge 55-72 ft (Manhattan 55, Azimut 68, Majesty 62, Princess Y72): the Friday-with-family default; crewed lightly, berthed everywhere.
  • Sport (Predator 65, Pershing 8X): pace and profile, higher fuel appetite, owners who drive.
  • 26m+ flagships (Ferretti 850, Grande 27M, Riva 88, Nomad 65): full crew territory; berth planning comes before the purchase, not after.

The money side of each class is in the ownership cost guide; condition risk in the survey checklist.

Frequently asked questions

Why do ranges vary so much within a model?

Year, engine and generator hours, refit history and how the boat lived: shaded berth with washdown crew or open swing mooring. Gulf sun compounds neglect fast, so the same model can honestly trade at half or double depending on care.

Can you source a model not on this list?

Yes. These are the region's mainstream names, not our limits. From a 40-foot day boat to a 40-metre, brief the desk and the network will work it.

Already know the model?

Name it and the desk checks what is quietly for sale between the marinas.
