optimize your ROI
Yacht Charter Management
Owning a yacht involves both passion and responsibility. While private use offers unforgettable moments, periods of inactivity can quickly turn into high running costs and unnecessary depreciation. According to the Mediterranean Yacht Brokers Association (MYBA), professional charter management is one of the most effective ways to preserve a yacht’s long-term value. Our charter management services provide an efficient solution: they allow your yacht to generate income, remain actively maintained, and retain her long-term value.
At Noblesse Yachts®, we take a structured approach to every aspect of the charter business. From marketing and bookings to financial administration and guest services, our role is to ensure that your yacht operates smoothly and profitably – without adding complexity for the owner.
For guests, this means a consistently high standard of service and a well-prepared yacht. For owners, it means transparent processes, optimised costs, and stronger returns. Together, these elements form the basis of sustainable success in the competitive world of luxury yacht charters.

Core Components of Yacht Charter Management
Successful yacht charter management is defined by more than availability calendars and contracts – it is about creating journeys that guests remember and owners truly value. At Noblesse Yachts®, every charter begins with a tailor-made plan, designed to align destinations, routes, and onboard activities precisely with the guests’ interests.
Preparation often goes far beyond paperwork. Clients may request yacht visits, review equipment in detail, or adjust itineraries several times before confirming. By remaining accessible and discreet throughout, we ensure that expectations are fully understood – and always fulfilled.
For owners, this structured charter flow management translates directly into measurable results: efficient coordination with captain and crew, swift handling of enquiries, and proactive anticipation of guest needs. The outcome is higher occupancy rates, stronger guest satisfaction, and an improved return on investment.
Effective yacht marketing goes far beyond glossy images – it is about positioning your yacht in front of the right audience and communicating a lifestyle that resonates with them. At Noblesse Yachts®, we understand the expectations of high-net-worth individuals and translate them into targeted campaigns.
Our approach combines strong digital visibility with traditional networking. Professionally produced photography, video and virtual tours ensure that your yacht makes an impact online, while strategic collaborations with leading charter brokers, premium booking platforms, and luxury brands extend your reach globally.
Beyond digital promotion, we work closely with charter brokers and agencies, and actively showcase yachts at selected boat shows and industry events. These direct encounters not only strengthen market positioning but also build lasting trust with potential clients.
Efficient booking management is essential to ensure that every yacht charter runs smoothly – for both owners and guests. As part of our charter management services, we take care of the entire process: from the first enquiry and contract handling to guest preparation and follow-up.
Clear and consistent communication is at the heart of our client liaison. We make sure the crew receives all relevant details well in advance – from dietary requirements and preferred beverages to cultural sensitivities and etiquette guidelines. In close coordination with the captain, we also discuss itineraries, guest wishes, and operational requirements. This thorough preparation allows the crew to welcome guests in a professional and personalised way, while at the same time optimising the yacht’s utilisation.
By combining structured communication, detailed preparation, and efficient coordination, Noblesse Yachts® ensures higher guest satisfaction and stronger returns for yacht owners.
Professional yacht charter accounting provides owners with full transparency over revenues and expenses. Each yacht is assessed individually, taking into account ownership structure, location, equipment, and intended use. Based on this analysis, we develop a tailored financial framework in close coordination with the owner, captain, and crew.
All financial transactions are handled with clarity and precision. Client payments for charters follow a standard structure: 50% of the charter fee is due upon contract signature, with the balance – together with the Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA) – payable four weeks before embarkation. The APA, generally around 30% of the charter price, is made available to the captain to cover variable costs such as fuel, provisions, and marina fees. All expenses are carefully documented, and any unused funds are returned to the client.
For the owner, this system ensures clarity and control. Regular reports provide a detailed overview of charter income and expenditure, while real-time access to financial data allows for continuous monitoring. Noblesse Yachts® manages the entire process with accuracy and transparency, safeguarding both profitability and compliance.
In the luxury yacht sector, long-term success depends on maintaining strong client relationships. At Noblesse Yachts®, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is a structured approach that focuses on understanding expectations, building trust, and delivering consistent service quality.
This begins with the first point of contact and continues through the entire charter process – from initial consultation and contract handling to post-charter follow-up. By systematically recording guest preferences, monitoring feedback, and ensuring consistent service quality, we create a foundation for sustained client satisfaction.
For owners, the benefits are clear: repeat bookings, stronger loyalty, and positive recommendations that enhance the yacht’s reputation in the charter market. Noblesse Yachts® combines professional processes with personal attention to ensure that every client relationship develops into lasting value.
