Since Spain relaxed taxation on charter yachts last year, eliminating the Matriculation Tax of 12% on the value of the hull, owners are applying for the Spanish charter license. This is fantastic news for the Spanish yacht charter industry and, of course, also for clients who will soon have a much wider choice when it comes to cruising the inviting Spanish waters.

Today we are featuring  5 yachts that have already confirmed that they will be available to operate charters in Spain this season. It is very exciting to see yachts like the majestic MY Ulysses, the MY Diana or MY Blush on offer in Spain. In fact, more luxury yachts that were previously deterred by the high taxes are taking advantage of these new regulations and turning their eyes towards Spain, greatly improving the standard of Spanish yacht charters.

MY Ulysses is sure to turn heads in any port. This classic Benetti measuring 56 m and built in 2012 accommodates up to 12 guests in 6 staterooms, including a master suite, 1 VIP stateroom, 2 double cabins and 2 twin cabins. This yacht is able to take up to 12 crew members, ensuring that all passengers’ needs are attended to in maximum luxury.The Interior of  Ulysses designed by Benetti, is pure luxury, with its custom embossed leather ceilings, gold plated handles and door knobs, and an impressive collection of artworks on display. The yacht’s exterior, designed by Stefano Natucci is no less impressive, with its sleek black hull and beige superstructure. Among other amenities, the Ulysses is equipped with a gym, piano and an elevator for easy access.

MY Blush, 47.24 m long and built in 2014, is a tri-deck motor yacht  – the largest yacht launched to date from the Sunseeker Shipyard . She accommodates up to 10 charter guests in a full beam master suite with private balcony, two double staterooms on the main deck and two twin staterooms on the lower deck. Her experienced crew of 10 people will make sure you cruise in comfort.The sundeck offers a large relaxation area, complete with forward spa pool, aft sunbeds, extensive seating arrangement, and a bar and dining area under the radar arch. 

MY Diane is a spacious 43 m Benetti launched in 2007. Also designed by Stefano Natucci, the key features of this yacht include a sundeck Jacuzzi, beach club with swim platform, four dining areas and zero speed stabilizers for added comfort while the yacht is at anchor or in rough waters. Her 5 cabins (3 double and 2 twin) accommodate up to 10 guests and she has a crew of 8 experienced crew members to ensure a great vacation. 

The 2015 World Super Yacht  Awards finalist MY Thumper is a stunning  40 m Sunseeker built in 2014 that comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 staterooms,  including a master suite, two double staterooms and two twin staterooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. Tastefully decorated interiors, expansive deck areas and zero speed stabilizers are some of the main features of this superb yacht.
