As wealth accumulation rises, particularly in regions like North America, Europe, and parts of Asia, there is a corresponding increase in luxury spending, including yachts. These individuals often view luxury yachts as a symbol of status and a means of enjoying exclusive, high-end experiences. The growing number of billionaires and millionaires, especially those in emerging economies, is expanding the customer base for luxury yachts. They not only invest in purchasing but also in customizing yachts to their preference, which further fuels the market growth.
