January 2026's brokerage activity saw sellers adjusting price tags, with €68.3 million cut across 62 yacht listings, according to data from BOATPro. Various yachts for sale – including hybrid classic sailing yachts and World Superyacht Award winners – had their asking prices slashed.

Length: 38m
Builder: Gulf Craft
Now asking: $16,500,000 with Aqua Marine

The newly delivered Majesty 120, Geulunel, received a $5,850,000 price reduction and a change of central agent; she is now listed with Matteo Bencivenni of Aqua Marine. The 2025 yacht for sale was built in the UAE, and according to her broker, she offers “30 per cent larger outdoor entertainment areas compared to any other yacht in its class” over her three decks. Gulf Craft’s design hallmarks are evident in her bold lines and extensive use of glazing, which create an indoor-outdoor flow. Her contemporary interiors, featuring a neutral, warm palette, are by Cristiano Gatto Design. Accommodation on board is for 12 guests and includes a full-beam owner’s suite, a VIP cabin, two doubles, and two convertible twins. A highlight is her sundeck Jacuzzi, while her beach club doubles as a tender garage.

Now asking: €33,900,000 with Edmiston

A well-travelled and proven charter yacht, this Donald Starkey-designed superyacht received a €5,600,000 price reduction at the end of January. Listed for sale with Charles Carveles and Jonathan Barbe of Edmiston, after multiple refits and a special survey completed in June 2025, Dream is in “meticulous condition.” Delivered in 2001, the yacht sports “zen-like” aesthetics with European furnishings and Asian artwork courtesy of  Bannenberg & Rowell. Accommodation is flexible, with seven cabins and two additional areas in the 110 square metre owner’s suite - currently a yoga room and private office - convertible for the next owner’s needs. Complete with a Jacuzzi, sunpads, and a full-service bar, the sundeck is the yacht’s social centre, and the skylounge doubles as a cinema lounge. Complementing the onboard experience is the “extremely quiet” cruising (just 41 decibels in the owner’s suite), a 10-metre chase tender, and plenty of water toys.

Length: 60m
Builder: Feadship
Now asking: $28,000,000 with Y.CO.

A currency shift has resulted in a price drop of approximately $4,500,000 for the 1993 yacht Lady Beatrice. Penned by De Voogt Naval Architects with a classic canoe stern, she is listed with James Pool of Y.CO. With only two owners since new and only privately used, she is “well maintained and ready to go.” Recent yard periods in 2024-2025 upgraded electronics, teak, and other systems, while a 2025 refit modernised interiors. Jon Bannenberg-designed spaces accommodate up to 16 guests and feature dual owner’s cabins, soft furnishings, and floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the main saloon and drawing room, complete with a grand piano. Shaded alfresco dining, a sundeck pool with loungers, and extensive tender options (a 7-metre custom GRP, a 6.1-metre Boston Whaler, and a 4.5-metre Novurania RIB) complete her package.

Length: 48m
Builder: Mengi Yay
Now asking: €29,950,000 with Northrop & Johnson

Commissioned by an experienced owner who was looking for a “Med-friendly” package, Serenissima I, delivered in 2024, is the first unit from the Turkish yard’s sub-500GT series. Listed for sale with Ed Dickinson of Northop & Johnson, she had €4,000,000 removed from her price tag earlier this month. Designed by Nuvolari Lenard inside and out, highlights include a private owner’s deck, “gentleman’s lounge” with cinema, walk-in wine cellar, and even a retro-red Berkeley flywheel meat slicer. In addition to a long list of features for up to 10 guests, the owner’s hobby area in the lazerette includes a workbench and tools. Boasting “one of the largest in this category of yachts,” the sundeck is home to a Jacuzzi, cosy firepit, and sunpads. Elsewhere, the foredeck can double up as a boxing ring. Rounding out the eclectic offerings is a classic 1961 Riva Ariston tender, displayed like a work of art on the main deck aft.

5. Lady Betty - €2,250,000 price drop

One of seven 36 Exuma models from the Italian yard, Lady Betty witnessed a price drop in January of €2,250,000, listed for sale with Michel Chryssicopoulos of IYC, who notes that she has the “fluidity of a flybridge yacht and endurance of an explorer”. Delivered in 2024, Maoira was responsible for her exterior lines and naval architecture. While Acuba Designs interiors flood the yacht with natural light through oversized glazing, highlighting the refined textures and contemporary furnishings. Accommodation is for 10 guests in five cabins with flexible layouts. She also offers an alfresco skylounge that connects open-air and sheltered spaces. Her shallow draught and just 80 hours on the main engines mean she is ready to go wherever a new owner desires.

6. Foftein - €2,000,000 price drop

Length: 30m
Builder: Royal Huisman
Now asking: €6,500,000 with Haas International

This 1999 Royal Huisman sailing yacht, Foftein, is a pioneer in hybrid classics, capable of cruising silently under hybrid power while regenerating energy under sail. Listed for sale with Manfred Haas of Haas International, the “striking cutter rigged” German Frers-designed yacht saw a reduction of €2,000,000 this January to her sales price. Only two owners since new, she is in “exceptional, turnkey condition” following a 2020 Huisfit refit, during which her propulsion and systems were upgraded. Meanwhile, inside Pieter Beeldsnijder’s cherry-wood panelling creates a warm and elegant atmosphere for six guests. Dual cockpits create a separate social space and owner privacy, while tapered aluminium masts, semi-automatic, computer-cut sails, and responsive handling deliver regatta-ready performance.

7. Seven Sins - €2,000,000 price drop

Length: 52m
Builder: Sanlorenzo
Now asking: €25,500,000 with Moravia Yachting

Seven sins, listed for sale with Virginia Di Antonio of Moravia Yachting, received a price reduction of €2,000,000 toward the end of January. The first unit of the Italian yards 52 Steel series, Seven Sins, clinched a Neptune at the 2018 World Superyacht Awards for her elegant lines, expansive spaces, and modern interior. Thanks to the two annual yard periods and new generators, she is in top condition. Accommodation on board is for 11 guests across an owner’s suite, two doubles, and two twins. According to her broker, she is charter-ready and has the “elegance of a larger yacht yet remains marina-friendly and easy to operate.” Further highlights include a sundeck with alfresco dining, a bar and sun loungers, and, elsewhere, a glass-bottom swimming pool, gym, sauna, and a floodable drive-in tender garage.
