The much-anticipated Monaco Yacht Show is a time to celebrate some of the industry’s most prized superyachts. But for prospective buyers, navigating the complexities of purchasing a new yacht requires the expertise of a seasoned broker. Among the top brokerage houses at this year's event is Edmiston, following an outstanding year with impressive sales figures.
With 30 yachts sold so far in 2024 alone, totalling over €1.1 billion in sales, Edmiston has secured a dominant 25 per cent market share of the global transaction value, and 28 per cent in yachts over 50 metres. Remarkably, the brokerage boasts the fastest sales time in the industry, with its central agency yachts selling at twice the speed of the market average. As excitement builds for the show, BOAT highlights the standout superyachts Edmiston will be presenting to potential clients in Monaco.
Among the spotlighted superyachts is the newly transformed H3, originally delivered as 95-metre Indian Empress in 2000 by Oceanco. Following an extensive full-scale rebuild at the same shipyard in 2023, the vessel now emerges as a modernised 105-metre, delivered in 2024 with the appeal of a brand-new yacht, complete with a full shipyard new-build warranty.
H3 presents a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a yacht that not only boasts contemporary design but also meets today’s stringent environmental standards, including full IMO Tier III compliance. The transformation was masterminded by the renowned Reymond Langton Design, which reimagined both the interior and exterior, replacing the original sharp interior lines with a more fluid, wave-inspired aesthetic.
Inside, H3 offers accommodation for up to 20 guests, with sprawling living spaces across the bridge, owner and main decks. The sundeck is an area for relaxation or even a workout with a view in the forward-facing gym, while the lower deck spa is a place to totally unwind, featuring a hair and beauty salon, massage room, Hammam and even a private hospital.
There is much to offer the adrenaline junkies too, with the yacht’s wide range of water toys and tenders, including Jet Skis, Seabobs, kayaks, SUPs, diving equipment and inflatables. Alternatively, you can enjoy a day of exploring hidden coastlines with the 10.1-metre Compass Open Sport tender, an 11.1-metre Compass Limo tender and two 6.2-metre Yachtwerft Meyer rescue tenders.
Superyachts to suit every taste
Edmiston’s fleet at the Monaco Yacht Show caters to a wide range of tastes and needs. Among the highlights is 80-metre Aalto, a go-anywhere cruising yacht designed for those with a passion for exploration and adventure. Wayfinder, a 68.2-metre support catamaran, is ideal for owners looking to expand their capabilities with extensive storage for tenders and toys. Superyachts with a proven charter record include 65-metre Resilience and 60-metre Samadhi, for owners keen to find something with strong commercial value. Other standouts include the 60-metre classic Feadship Lady Beatrice, for sale for the first time, and the meticulously maintained 55-metre Olympus, 54.3-metre Spirit and 50-metre Ela.
For sailing enthusiasts, Edmiston presents an extraordinary lineup. The 50-60-metre size range offers high-performance cruisers Fidelis and Salvaje, World Superyacht Award-winner Asahi or the charter-attractive Red Dragon. Moving into the smaller size bracket, Mariette of 1915 provides prospective owners with the opportunity to follow their classic yacht dreams, a 38-metre twin-masted schooner with a rich history. Alternatively, there will be two world-cruising sloops up for grabs, 34.9-metre State of Grace and 26-metre Mini Y.
Edmiston invites clients to explore these magnificent yachts at two key locations during the show: the Edmiston Pavilion at the Yacht Club de Monaco and its stand (QH19). Once again, Edmiston has partnered with business jet manufacturer Gulfstream, as well as Wajer and Range Rover, to ensure that guests can navigate the show with the utmost comfort and discretion.
