Superyachts with shallow drafts

Superyachts with shallow drafts are growing in popularity as yacht owners and charterers seek to explore more remote destinations. Discover the benefits of superyachts with shallow drafts.
 
Benefits of superyachts with shallow drafts
A shallow draft enables a yacht to berth in small harbours and marinas that often have shallow waters. Some of the most stunning destinations, as well as remote and isolated locations across the world, don’t have deep-water harbours. A superyacht with a shallow draft enables yacht owners and charterers to more easily access these destinations and explore remote beaches, hidden coves, and quaint seaside villages. Additionally, the shallower the yacht’s draft, the less opportunity there is for colliding with reefs, helping to protect earth’s precious marine life.
 
Refined superyachts with shallow drafts
Many of the world’s most prestigious shipbuilders have built superyachts with shallow drafts, due to the increasing demand for yacht owners and charterers wishing to explore remote destinations far from the madding crowds.

M/Y ALESSANDRA is an exquisite 48-metre superyacht for sale. She was built by Trinity Yachts, a luxury American motor yacht builder known for building some of the world’s most elegant superyachts with shallow draft. Launched in 2004, her shallow 2-metre draft makes her ideal for island-hopping, while her amenities, including five staterooms, hot tub on the sundeck, voluminous saloons, and tenders and toys make her ideal for enjoying limitless luxury on the sea.
 
With a draft of just 2.57-metres, M/Y NASSIMA is another example of an exquisite superyacht with shallow draft for sale. This 49.18-metre Dutch-built motor yacht is ideal for exploring remote beaches and hidden coves. Her amenities, including gym, owner’s private sundeck, and plethora of tenders and toys, make her ideal for those seeking fun on the water.
