Great british superyachts, products and services.

The UK offers extraordinary capabilities in the superyacht sector, from the creation and refit of some of the world’s leading luxury yachts and innovative development and support of high quality equipment, through to key services that owners and captains can trust.

Great Britain’s impressive superyacht capability is advocated by Superyacht UK, which additionally draws on the resources of the 1500 member British Marine trade organisation, founded in 1913, of which we are a part. Founded on decades of craftsmanship and innovation, our members are at the forefront of superyacht development, from naval architecture, design and engineering, through all the many skills necessary to see a superyacht into service and and effectively managed and supported throughout its service life.

Young Designers Competition 2024

This year’s competition, in partnership with Sunseeker International, introduces two categories for entry for pre-graduation and master’s university students.

Twelve places are available. Participants will hand-draw their designs according to specific briefs during the two-day event at the Southampton International Boat Show in September.

Completed entry forms must be submitted by 19 April 2024.

UK superyacht statistics

*Superyacht UK’s annual research, available exclusively to all members, demonstrates the significant activity of British companies in the global superyacht scene. Our 2019 report shows the sector added £308m in GVA to the UK economy in 2018/19, a 7 per cent increase on the previous year.

Bronwyn gilchrist, head of service , candidate.

Saltwater Recruitment helped me find my dream job. From the start of my search right up to my placement, they have been attentively and genuinely involved in finding the best fit for me. Within a short amount of time Saltwater presented me three matching vacancies; facilitated in interviews and guided me with the best professional advice. I am now one happily employed yachtie! I absolutely love my job and am forever grateful!​

JARED MARTIN

Captain/chief officer , client of 60-90m yachts.

It’s been two over years of working with the Saltwater Recruitment team and we have been very happy with the level of professionalism and attention we receive when looking for a candidate to join us. 99% of the candidates that Saltwater have presented to us have been a perfect match for us, and when we had a candidate that did not work out, we were given an automatic replacement immediately, no questions asked. This is the kind of service we expect in the industry and Saltwater can supply this. ​

CHIEF OFFICER , 90M+

It has been a pleasure working with Saltwater. For every potential candidate they send, it is accompanied by a very useful paragraph that not only summarises the their CV, but includes information on reference checks, why they are suitable and any other points of note. Written references are verified verbally too. Saltwater is very proactive with their search for the right candidates.​

STEPHANIE DURKAN

Chief stew/purser , various motor yachts.

Saltwater is a top agency for all levels of recruitment needs. I have worked with Saltwater on both sides of recruitment - to find crew to join my team and also over the years to find the best jobs which match my needs. The team are so personable, experienced and professional from start to finish of any recruitment process. I highly recommend. ​

Superyacht UK launch initiative to inspire students to pursue careers in the superyacht world

The Superyacht UK (SYUK) association has launched an initiative to motivate the next generation to pursue careers in the marine industry. It aims "to elevate awareness, to inspire, to educate and to guide the next generation toward the illustrious careers that the superyacht world offers."

Superyacht UK will unveil its ambition at the Southampton International Boat Show between 13 - 22 September to its thousand-plus cohort of students. 

Ben Geary, chairman of Superyacht UK, is driving the initiative along with Superyacht UK's recently appointed manager, Michael Beattie. 

In an open letter to the industry, Geary said: "We stand at a pivotal moment — where our legacy and future intersect. Before us is a monumental yet exhilarating challenge: to inspire the imaginations of the up-and-coming generation. These young minds, largely remain unaware of the marine industry’s existence, let alone an enticing prospect of a career with superyachts." 

Geary continued: "I believe as a sector we can unite, and synchronise our efforts, to enlighten and engage these potential pioneers and future leaders of the industry. Any hesitation or failure to act now will only exacerbate the recruitment challenges many face, for years to come."

Passengers scream as superyacht worth £95m crashes into smaller boat

Share this with

This is the shocking moment a £95 million superyacht crashed into a smaller boat with at least six people on board.

Footage shows the 232 ft boat named Ice gliding through the water as it heads towards another boat off the coast of Yalıkavak, Turkey on Saturday.

Passengers on the smaller boat can be heard screaming as the superyacht sails towards them.

The vessel’s bow then crashed into the stern of a 101ft motor yacht carrying at least half a dozen people.

It is unclear why the collision occurred, but has been reported that at least half a dozen people were on the smaller boat at the time.

The boat suffered major damage at the stern but no onboard was injured.

The superyacht is part of the Lürssen shipbuilding company and can hold 14 guests and 27 crew members.

Features include a large helipad, beauty salon and bathtubs carved out of solid limestone.

There is also a state-of-the-art gym, jacuzzi and countless lounge and relaxation areas, both in- and outdoors.

The Coast Guard has launched an investigation into the incident.

In June two boats were involved in a devastating crash and a sailor was thrown overboard during a yacht race.

A man was flung from a boat as competitors battled rough seas during the Round the Island Race in the Isle of Wight today.

He then desperately clung onto his life jacket before being rescued.

The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) rushed to his aid to pull him from the water despite the extreme conditions.
