Frequently Asked Questions


How do I become a member?

YATCO has two membership sites. One is for the boat buyer. There are two tiers, Standard and VIP memberships. Standard is for the occasional buyer who wants to generally search boats that are for sale. VIP membership unlocks the total power of the system allowing for more saved searches, automatic alerts of specified yachts of interest, access to the top boat shows each year and more. Professional broker membership is limited to qualified professionals only and allows the uploading and management of listings, along with tailored reports, industry trends, and yacht ownership databases.
