    Why I Built Yacht Advisor

    Yacht listings often fail not because the yacht is bad, but because the market position is unclear. The asking price may not match buyer expectations. The listing may sit too long. The seller may receive feedback too late.

    Yacht Advisor was created to bring more structure, evidence and commercial realism into that process.

    Working approach

    Independent analysis, written down. The client should be able to use it directly in the next conversation.

    How I Think

    Not every yacht has a buyer at any price.

    Every yacht has a market position.

    The job is to understand that position before the market teaches it the hard way.

    Dubai And The Gulf

    Being based in Dubai gives me direct exposure to one of the most relevant growth regions in yachting. The Gulf is becoming more important as a winter hub, ownership region and advisory market. My work connects this regional perspective with international yacht market data and buyer behaviour.

    What I Actually Do

    My work is independent yacht advisory for owners of superyachts 30m and above, their representatives, family offices and brokers. It focuses on pricing reality, listing analysis, market positioning and seller support before a yacht loses momentum in the market.

    The output is written. It is intended to be used directly in the next conversation with the broker, the family office or the principal. It does not promote a specific yacht, a specific broker or a specific transaction.

    There is no commission tied to a deal closing, no listing inventory to defend and no preferred broker to route work to. That structure is what makes the analysis useful.

    Published Work

    I have been published in SuperYachtNews with views on the yacht market, owner behaviour and listing strategy, and in Elite Jet Magazine. I am also the author of a book on how to buy and sell yachts.

    The written work sits alongside the advisory practice. It exists to give owners, buyers and market participants a clearer view on how the yacht market actually behaves, not how it is described in brochures.

    LinkedIn And Industry Voice

    I share regular yacht market commentary on LinkedIn with an audience of more than 4500 industry professionals, brokers, owners and market participants.
