The model accommodates up to six suites, in addition to a home theater, gym, and game room. Manufactured by the Ceará shipyard Inace, the goal of the launch is to attract buyers from abroad and demonstrate that the Country has the capacity to export yachts. The superyacht Explora 90, valued at R$ 55 million, was sold even before being showcased at the fair held in the capital of Rio de Janeiro. The yacht, the only one that makes interoceanic crossings, has 450 m2 of social area and can have 100% of its interior defined by the buyer. The new owner, who wished to remain anonymous, requested that a children’s playroom and a sauna be installed on the deck.
According to Ernani Paciornik, president of the Nautical Group, which organizes the Rio Boat Show and also the São Paulo Boat Show, the demand for yachts goes beyond the world of millionaires. “You can start by buying a boat for R$ 50,000 and then think about acquiring a larger one,” he says. Paciornik explains that the success of recent years is a direct reflection of the pandemic and social isolation.
“People have realized that leisure is important and have seen boats as an option. It’s like a country house, but the boat is an island and takes you anywhere,” he says. Brazil has more than seven thousand kilometers of coastline, not to mention the rivers and reservoirs that also welcome the presence of vessels.
For him, buying a boat, whether a luxury yacht or a more economical model, is like having “a second car.” Something possible for a certain segment of the middle class. For those who wish to acquire a luxury or economical vessel, there are banks that offer financing.
