International Yacht Acquisition and Conversion (IYAC) As a result of global economic conditions and the current strength of the U.S. Dollar, it often makes sense to purchase larger European-manufactured yachts overseas and transport them to the United States. Although cost/value comparisons make this appear to be an easy decision (2006 Sunseeker located in the U.S. with asking price of $1.5 million vs. 2006 Sunseeker located in the United Kingdom with asking price of $770,000), the reality is global acquisition and conversion is a specialized and expensive procedure. Purchasing a foreign vessel with the intent to import, whether for personal use or for charter, involves a team of brokers and maritime attorneys in addition to knowledge in offshore closings, documentation, transport, Coast Guard requirements and conversion of electrical, as well as audio and video systems to U.S. standards (i.e. 220 to 110 power per 50Hz to 60Hz on electrical systems). International Yacht Acquisition and Conversion have compiled a team of top-notch professionals to guide the buyer from purchase to delivery and through the conversion’s completion. We have a stellar track record of converting and delivering European-purchased yachts in under 60 days to U.S. waters.
