The five biggest superyacht price drops of August

1 September 2025 • Written by Emily Dawkins

From romantic builds to pedigree classics, August saw superyacht sellers trim a total of €41.1 million from asking prices across 69 drops, according to data from BOATPro. BOAT rounds up five of the most eye-catching reductions making waves on the market last month, each seeking to tempt buyers looking for their next vessel.

1. Florentia - €3,000,000 price drop

Length: 52m
Builder: Rossinavi
Now asking: €41,000,000 with Ocean Independence

Florentia received the largest price reduction in August, with a further €3,000,000 deducted from her sales listing with Rytis Babravicius and Jelena Vezia of Ocean Independence, following a previous €4,000,000 reduction in March. "Romantic" exterior lines by Stefano Vafiadis characterise the 2020 Italian build, which is home to a contemporary, nature-inspired interior design by A++ Carlo Colombo. Accommodation on board is for 12 guests in six cabins, including a main-deck master suite and a forward-facing VIP on the upper deck. Guests can enjoy a relaxed skylounge and an upper deck Jacuzzi, alongside a generous beach club with an opening transom for easy water access.

2. Belongers - €2,000,000 price drop

Length: 49.9m
Builder: Couach
Now asking: €12,900,000 (VAT paid) with Fraser and Edmiston

Couach's 49.9-metre motor yacht Belongers, delivered in 2014, saw a further €2,000,000 price reduction to her sales listing with Dennis Frederiksen of Fraser and Hans Van Doornmalen of Edmiston near the end of the month, marking a compelling opportunity for one of only two yachts built from the French yard’s 5000 Fly 2 series. Constructed in GRP to Bureau Veritas class, she sports an all-white exterior by Exequiel Cano Lanza with in-house naval architecture, and an interior by German studio Metrica clad in a suite of neutral tones and black accents. Her versatile layout accommodates 14 guests across six cabins, including a full-beam master suite with dual bathrooms and walk-in wardrobes. In terms of amenities, highlights include a hammam steam shower, hot tub, al fresco dining for 12 and a barbecue-equipped sundeck with an interior owner’s office nearby.

3. Royale X - €2,000,000 price drop

A €2,000,000 price drop marked Royale X's return to the market in mid-August with Burgess' Peter Brown and Thibault Roi, following a recent refit and upgrade works completed this year. When delivered in 2012, she became the seventh unit from the Mangusta 165 series penned by Italian designer Stefano Righini. Inside, bleached teak wood soles, limed-oak panelling, and cream furniture and soft fittings characterise her living spaces and accommodation, which sleeps up to eight guests in four cabins, including a full-beam master with a private office. Among her amenities, Royale X is fitted with a gym and media room - something which her brokers say is "unusual for a vessel of this type".

4. Perle Bleue - €1,200,000 price drop

Length: 47.4m

Now asking: €9,950,000 with NEXT Yachting

A sum of €1,049,000 was the amount deducted from Seleda 's sales listing with Bertrand Vogèle and Sebastiano Pitasi of NEXT Yachting in August. The price drop came less than three months after a previous €501,000 price drop was announced and just four months after she joined the market for the first time since her 2021 delivery. Despite a somewhat classical appearance on the outside, inside, the 47.4-metre motorsailer is open-plan and contemporary - decorated with dark wood flooring, smooth curvaceous lines and geometric shapes. The Turkish shipyard also penned her exterior design, while her naval architecture was developed by Ginton Naval Architects and interiors drawn by BTA Design. Accommodation on board is for 11 guests in five cabins.
