Frequently asked questions

Is Yacht Time Share the same as fractional ownership?

Yes, Yacht Time Share is a form of fractional ownership of yachts, which allows you to buy a share of a vessel and share its costs and use with other owners. Unlike sole ownership, this formula significantly reduces management costs, real savings of up to 75%, and allows you to use the yacht for a guaranteed period of time per year, without having to deal with maintenance and operational management.

What happens if I want to upgrade to a larger yacht?

Infinity Italian Yacht offers the possibility of upgrading your share, allowing co-owners to move to a larger or more valuable vessel within the circuit. Thanks to our network of selected broker clients, you can resell your share and invest in a new yacht, maintaining maximum flexibility over time.

What is the real use of a private yacht?

Statistics show that private yacht owners only use their vessels for a limited number of weeks a year:

  • On average, a yacht owner uses their vessel between 3 and 5 weeks per year in high season.
  • 90% of luxury yachts are used less than 8 weeks a year.
  • Many yachts spend over 90% of their time moored in ports.

These data highlight the advantage of timeshare, which allows you to enjoy the experience of yachting without the costs and responsibilities of exclusive ownership.

What happens if I want to leave the timeshare?

Infinity Italian Yacht offers several options for co-owners who wish to exit the program:

  • Right of first refusal: other multi-owners have priority in purchasing the share.
  • Assisted resale: possibility to sell your share through our network of selected customers.
  • Upgrades and Trade-ins: You can exchange your share to move to a larger vessel or to a new Yacht Time Share program.

Thanks to these solutions, Infinity Italian Yacht offers a flexible and safe system, guaranteeing maximum freedom in the management of fractional ownership.

How does insurance work?

All the yachts managed by Infinity Italian Yacht are covered by an all-risk and hull insurance policy, which protects the co-owners from any damage, civil liability and technical unforeseen events. The insurance is included in the management costs and guarantees complete coverage during the entire period of use of the yacht.

Why choose timeshare instead of exclusive ownership?

While it is true that you will not become 100% owner of your Yacht but only 25%, you should know that:

  • Studies by Confindustria Nautica and other bodies indicate that many yachts spend much of the year moored in port.
  • Yacht charter companies report that more and more owners prefer to rent out their boats when they are not using them, confirming limited usage.
  • Industry operators (nautical brokers, management companies) report that most owners use the yacht only for a few weeks a year, delegating management for the rest of the time.

What are the hidden costs of running a private yacht?

In addition to purchasing the vessel, the annual running costs of a yacht can be very high and include:

  • Mooring in prestigious ports
  • Ordinary and extraordinary maintenance
  • Insurance and taxes
  • Crew and Operational Management
  • Cleaning, Sanitization and Supplies

With Infinity Italian Yacht, all these costs are shared between the co-owners, saving up to 75% without giving up a premium service.
