An impressive 2025 so far for Burgess

The numbers are in, and they're big. So far in 2025, Burgess has sold yachts worth a total of USD 1.4 billion, including 63% of all 70m+ deals by value and the three highest-value sales this year – all to Burgess clients. With 25% of the global yacht market value (by asking price) listed with Burgess, it’s clear that owners trust us to sell their yachts.

On the charter side, we operate the world’s largest fleet in the 40m+ range and represent twice as many yachts in the 60m+ category as our nearest competitor. These achievements underscore the strength of our global network – where insights, data, and market knowledge are shared seamlessly among our directly employed brokers. From new builds to timeless classics, Burgess continues to lead at every level of the market.

"Our uniquely collaborative model delivers results you simply don't see elsewhere. Discretion is important to us, we rarely shout about individual deals and nearly half our business remains off‑market, we cut out the noise and focus on seamless teamwork which quietly and consistently achieves the best outcomes for our clients." Ben Harwood, Sales and Charter Director.

With a strong first half of the year behind us, we enter the second with great momentum, a highly engaged global client base, and the strongest sales and charter fleet in the industry.
