    Basis of the Study


    As far as possible data was obtained from

    Marinas directly
    Some data obtained from the Internet
    Assumptions were avoided as far as
    possible
    Some rates had to be calculated from data
    supplied
    The whole study will be fed back to all
    contributors, to them, many thanks.

    The Yachts
    A Cross Section of Typical Yachts was used:
    A 40 ft / 12 metre monohull sailing yacht
    typical of the local cruising market
    A 46 ft / 14 metre catamaran, typical of the
    bareboat charter market
    A 65 ft / 20 metre monohull yacht, typical of
    the higher end cruising market
    A 130 ft / 40 metre monohull motor yacht a
    mid-range Megayacht

    Calculation
    Rates were calculated per night for
    each yacht type for the following
    periods:

    The High Season between December


    & May
    For daily visitor berthing
    For monthly storage berthing
    The Low Season between June &
    November
    For daily visitor berthing
    For seasonal storage berthing
