On an otherwise quiet day for news as brokers wind down for the holiday season, Yves Di Lena of YDL Yachting emails me to say that the price of his joint central agency, with Antoine Larricq at Fraser Yachts, the 42.4m motor yacht Golden Horn has had a €1 million price reduction.

Built by the RB Dereli yard in 2008, she was designed for extended cruising with a range of 5,000 nautical miles at 10 knots. Golden Horn accommodates 10 guests in a master, three doubles and a twin and, following the price cut, is now asking €12.9 million.
