of the local fleet while others visit from outside the region. In 2022, a total of 372 unique yachts were either based in or visited the Asia-Pacific region. By 2023, this number had increased to 445, marking a 20% growth. The trend continued into 2024, with the Identification System (AiS), which is required for almost all superyachts. While some yachts do not use AIS reaching 530 superyachts, reflecting an additional 19% increase.If this growth continues, projections suggest that by the end of 2025, the number of superyachts in the region could reach at least 600. high level of coverage enables us to analyse superyacht movements in the Asia-Pacific region with confidence. SYT does however acknowledge that some superyachts are not trackable via Als, so the Intelligence team has cross-checked all known yachts owned or operated in Asia using satellite data. The team then incorporated missing yachts and their likely locations to ensure maximum accuracy in our data. The analysis of yacht movements in the Asia-Pacific region has produced several key insights. Between January 2024 and December 2024, a total of 530 superyachts over 30 metres were active in the region, meaning they were either permanently based there or visited during the year. Out of these, 187 yachts were foreign-flagged, with no ownership ties to Asia, while 343 superyachts were owned by Asian nationals and oaui aeane leqol au uey label els aq otspuat osle oed-is au u!aa yeadns au jo 40 metre category accounts for 59% of the regional fleet, compared to 63% globally.
