From purchase to charter fleet.
Through our partnership with Blue Ocean Yacht Charters of Key West, a yacht you buy with us can go straight into an established charter program.
Buy the yacht, place it in charter.
Little Yacht Sales has partnered with Blue Ocean Yacht Charters of Key West to give buyers a straightforward way to put a new vessel directly into charter service.
Based in Key West, Blue Ocean Yacht Charters is known for its service, its fleet management and its guests' satisfaction — and our Key West office is affiliated with them. They're looking for boats to join their fleet.
Ownership stays enjoyable, and becomes financially strategic: the yacht earns when it's chartered and is looked after when it isn't.
A working asset, not just a yacht.
Turnkey charter placement
From the moment you buy, Blue Ocean provides full-service management and places your vessel into their established charter fleet — no hassle, no delay.
Section 179 tax advantages
Placing your yacht into charter may qualify it for accelerated depreciation under IRS Section 179, with much of its cost deductible in the first year. Consult your tax adviser.
About Section 179Professional management
Marketing, bookings, maintenance and crew coordination are handled by Blue Ocean's experienced team.
Revenue potential
Between your own days aboard, the yacht can earn from charter bookings — offsetting its costs.
