Used Sailing Yachts from Our Own Charter Fleet

The sailing yachts listed on this page are our own charter boats, sold at the end of their working life in the Dream Yacht fleet. We commissioned them, ran them from our own bases, and had our professional maintenance team keep them in exceptional shape. None of the history is second hand to us. If charter management is new to you, discover our ownership programme models.

Our yachts stay in the fleet from 5 to 7 years before being released for sale and going through a thorough phase out process. Purchasing a used yacht from Dream Yacht is an economical option, our monohull buying guide walks you through the benefits of buying through Dream Yacht Brokerage.

What is in the Monohull fleet?

Our fleet consists of world class monohulls from major manufacturers including Beneteau, Jeanneau, and Dufour. Some of our more popular boats include the Dufour 412, Dufour 460, Dufour 520, Beneteau Oceanis 46.1, and Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 519. By length, 30 to 39 feet covers the entry level monohulls, while most of the fleet falls in the 40 to 49 foot and 50 to 59 foot range. If you would rather size up for more space and comfort explore our used catamarans.

The majority of these monohulls were built to a charter specification, which usually means three or four cabins and extra heads, in place of an owner’s cabin. Ensure that you look at the cabin and head count for each boat to make sure it aligns with your sailing needs.

Where Our Used Sailing Yachts are Located

The majority of our monohull fleet is located in the Mediterranean. Currently our stock is concentrated in Greece at our Lavrion and Kos bases, in Montenegro at our Kotor base, in the South of France at our Port Pin Rolland base, and in Martinique at our Le Marin base. Our boats remain at their respective bases until they are sold, customers travel to the base for viewing and the yacht will be hauled at the marina for survey and inspection. The base is also where the yacht will be released to you so delivery considerations are also a factor.

How The Sale Works

Make sure to check each listing for whether the price includes VAT, because it varies across the fleet. Some are advertised inclusive, some exclusive, and the difference is material. Your yacht sales consultant will confirm the VAT position for a given boat, set up a viewing, put you in touch with a surveyor, take care of deregistration and the documents you need for your own flag, and price a delivery if you would rather not sail it home yourself. From an agreed offer to handover is about six weeks.

What paperwork is required to buy a pre-owned yacht? 

The paperwork required to buy a used boat depends on the current registration of the boat. It also depends on the future registration of the boat, whether it is a private or a commercial sale.

How old are most used yachts for sale? 

Most boats are 5 to 7 years old as most boats we sell are ex-charter management boats and the contracts are between 5 to 7 years.

How long does the buying process typically take?

The typical buying process takes around 6 weeks, depending on the terms of the sale.

Do you handle the paperwork for de-flagging and registration? 

We will deregister the boat and provide whatever is necessary for the registration of the boat.

Do used yachts come with a survey? 

It is up to the new owner to undertake a survey on used boats.

What are the typical price ranges of the used yachts?

The cheapest yachts for sale generally start from around $50,000, up to the higher range of around $1 Million.
