US Brokerage Market ReportMedian asking prices, price per foot, and days on market across 2,253 active USD listings on the YATCO MLS - aggregated by Double G Yacht Sales and refreshed automatically every week. Asking prices, not sold prices; the method note is at the bottom.
A 130-footer doesn't just cost more - every foot of it costs more. Median asking price per foot climbs from $11,342 in the 40-59 band to $61,806 above 130 feet. Bars show median price per foot; each band links to the live listings behind it.
Counterintuitive but consistent: the median 40-59 foot listing has sat 503.5 days, while the median 130-footer moves in 294. Large-yacht buyers are fewer but decisive - and their boats are professionally presented. Within every band, presentation is what beats the median. That is the job of a marketing-led brokerage.
Selling? The median is the market's grade for average marketing. Ask Greg how a Double G listing beats it.
Florida dominates US inventory, and Fort Lauderdale dominates Florida. Selection, surveyors, yards, and closings concentrate in the same harbor - which is where Double G is based. Browse the live Fort Lauderdale selection.

Median days on market by category, fastest first. Only categories with 30+ active listings shown.
Slow bands are leverage: a listing far past its band's median days on market is a negotiation, not a price tag. Greg reads a boat's time-on-market against these medians before you offer - and as buyer's broker, his representation costs you nothing.
Your competition is the median: hundreds of days of average marketing. Cinematic presentation, search and AI visibility, and price positioning against live comparables are how a listing leaves this chart early. Every Double G central agency includes a written marketing plan and owner reporting.
How much does a yacht cost in 2026? Across 2,253 active USD listings on the YATCO MLS as of August 19, 2026: median asking price is $549,000 for 40-59 footers, $1.49M at 60-79 feet, $2.93M at 80-99 feet, $4.99M at 100-129 feet, and $8.90M at 130 feet and above. Price per foot rises from about $11,342 to $61,806 across those bands.
How long does it take to sell a yacht? As of August 19, 2026 the median active listing in the 40-59 foot band has been on the market 503 days, falling to 294 days at 130 feet and above. Larger yachts move faster - and within every band, presentation quality is what separates a listing from the median. That is the core of the Double G marketing approach.
Where are most yachts for sale in the US? Florida holds 67% of all US brokerage inventory in this dataset, and Fort Lauderdale alone holds 30% of Florida's - roughly one in five brokerage yachts in America lies in one city. See the live Fort Lauderdale selection on this site.
Are these sold prices? No - these are asking prices of active listings on the YATCO MLS, a professional multiple-listing service that covers a large share of the brokerage market but not all of it. Sold prices typically close below ask. For a pricing opinion on a specific yacht, Greg runs real comparables including confirmed sold data.
