Quick answer
Current public Miami listings reviewed by EYT in August 2026 show roughly $1,200–$1,800 starting points for some 40–45-foot formats, about $2,400–$4,100 for selected 55–70-foot yachts, and roughly $4,500–$6,000+ for selected 80-foot yachts. These are observed examples, not a universal market quote or guaranteed all-in price.
| Segment | Observed published examples | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| About 40–45 ft | $1,200–$1,800 | Selected cruiser/catamaran starting prices; inclusions differ |
| About 55–60 ft | $2,400–$3,500+ | Selected mid-size luxury starting prices |
| About 67–70 ft | $2,700–$4,100+ | Selected examples overlap because model and inclusions matter |
| About 80 ft | $4,500–$5,995+ | Selected premium listings; special dates can be higher |
How was this Miami yacht pricing range built?
EYT reviewed current publicly displayed four-hour prices from multiple Miami-area charter pages on August 28, 2026.
Examples included operator or booking pages showing vessel length, duration, price, and at least some inclusion context. The range is deliberately segmented and is not a complete market census, median, or private EYT quote.
What may be included in the charter price?
Captain, crew, local fuel, water, ice, towels, mats, marina fees, and basic toys may be included—but not consistently.
One current 70-foot listing publishes fuel included while adding tax and optional gratuity. Another fleet markets all-inclusive starting prices. A third publishes only a base rental rate. Verify each line.
What may be outside the quoted price?
Tax, gratuity, captain or crew, fuel, dock fees, catering, alcohol, premium toys, overtime, and event premiums can be separate.
Never describe a price as all-in unless the exact written terms support it.
Why can two similar-size yachts cost different amounts?
Model, year, condition, usable layout, departure point, crew, equipment, date, route, demand, and inclusions all matter.
Public examples illustrate this: a 67-foot Sunseeker listing at $4,100 for four hours can exceed other current 70-foot starting rates. Use a value test: pay more when the difference creates meaningful shade, social space, service, equipment, condition, or time—not merely a larger number in the listing title.
When do Miami yacht prices rise?
Premium dates and special-event periods can materially change rates.
Current public operators identify periods such as Art Basel, Formula 1, the Miami International Boat Show, Miami Music Week, Swim Week, and federal holidays as premium periods. Reverify the exact date.

Frequently asked questions
Is a Miami yacht charter price all-inclusive?
Only if the written quote defines it that way. Public listings use different inclusion models, so confirm captain, crew, fuel, tax, gratuity, dock fees, cleaning, catering, and optional equipment.
