If you’re considering chartering a yacht for your next vacation and are thinking, “What makes a yacht a superyacht?” then our choice of 40m yachts is a good place to start. 40m is often considered the yardstick for when a yacht becomes a superyacht, with 60m + being a mega yacht.
Superyachts of 40 meters will often be a tri-deck design, offer accommodation for ten or more guests, and be packed with luxury features: jacuzzis, garages full of water toys and highly professional crew members.
