    People who own super or mega yachts live in a world most of us will never know. It is a world filled with luxury, opulence, and sometimes excess. Objects of art, designer fashions, exotic cars, multiple homes, and world travel are often taken for granted by people who can easily afford them. When they require yacht delivery, an employee usually makes the arrangements. Some of us do not even know when a boat becomes a mega yacht.

    Whether or not boats are considered mega yachts or not depends mostly on their size. The word comes from the Dutch and was originally meant for boats that were fast and light enough to catch pirates. Smaller luxury boats are usually referred to as cabin cruisers even though they may be as unique as their larger cousins. Today we generally think of yachts as luxury seagoing vessels owned by people we read about in magazines.

    People who build one of a kind vessels usually work with a team that includes naval architects and interior designers. These professionals have already met and extensively discussed the particulars of the process with the future owners before any building begins. This way everyone can be comfortable that when the product is delivered, it is everything the purchasers expected.

    Dealers who sell large crafts are usually working with yachts that are not one of a kind creations. Most of their inventory is built by commercial companies that produce boats more financially feasible for the extremely successful general public.

    Mega yachts are often transported across international waters. If this is the case, the company delivering the boat, must comply with any and all applicable maritime laws. Ample insurance is required to ensure that if storms damage the vessel in any way, it can be repaired at no additional cost to the owner. This insurance should also guard against fire, pirating and any other unexpected disasters.

    One of the most important elements of any successful delivery is the competence of the captain and his or her crew. RYA yacht masters, for example, are highly sought after for these types of responsibilities because of the expertise they must have to receive their certifications. By the time they qualify for such a significant title, these skippers have thousands of hours on all types of ships in oceans around the world.

    Many builders, dealerships, and skippers encourage the new owners to travel with them as they deliver the vessel to its final destination. This is a great way for individuals to get a feel for the property they have purchased and feel comfortable that everything is exactly as they imagined. It is also a good time for them to address any questions or concerns they might have.

    Most of us will never know what it is like to have a boat as long as a football field and as opulent as a king's castle. For those lucky enough to own a floating mansion, getting it safely and successfully delivered is of utmost importance.
