Unlike fractional ownership of aircraft and house boats, all small holders of cruise ships can use vessels at the same time. You and the other owner have enough room for you to board the ship anytime you like. It can be used as a full-time residence, and other co-owners can also use it.
The first obvious advantage of shared ownership is the acquisition cost. There are many cruise ships on the market, with all price zones, sizes, ages and conditions. There are many smaller, older cruise ships that can be used under 1 million dollars. At the bottom, you can find out about some small cruise ships of fair condition at about $ 250,000. At the highest final stage, the largest new mega cruise ship will cost approximately $ 500 million to build.
calculate. If 100 buyers pool resources in exchange for part of the ownership of the ship, the acquisition cost is divided by the same number. Ownership of 1% of a $ 250,000 cruise ship will cost as little as $ 2,500 for shipbuilding. On the other side of the scale, 1% ownership of the new mega cruise ship is $ 5 million.
All other figures must be summarized in total cost of ownership. Acquisition cost is top priority. The following figure shows the cost of using the ship. On older ships this cost may be higher than acquisition costs. On the other hand, the cost of operating a ship is considerably lower for vessels that already meet international standards for ship safety, especially SOLAS (marine safety). Chapter 2 Maintaining compliance with SOLAS 74 revision is costly for some older vessels and is usually discarded rather than refurbished at the expense of sacrifice. SOLAS has a very important implementation date on January 10, 2010. On that day all commercial international ships will be required to comply with the new fire safety code. The most important new code deals with the use of flammable substances in the ship. It is expensive to replace all flammable substances in the ship with incombustible or flame retardant SOLAS compatible substances that meet new safety standards. This will cause many ships to be sold as scrap metal.
The introduction date of approaching SOLAS 2010 provides both danger and opportunity. The biggest crisis is that the cost to make ships fully compliant with international standards may be greater than the ship's value. But this cloud has silver lining. The implementation date of this pending SOLAS has already begun as a main factor in asking and selling the ship's price in today's market.
SOLAS 2010 provides a great opportunity for those who may prefer to have a very large houseboat instead of a commercial ship. Ships not compliant with SOLAS 2010 are currently being sold for songs (cheaply). The cruise ship can be easily converted to megayat with pen stroke. Private yachts are not commercial services, they do not carry passengers or cargo for passengers, so many SOLAS requirements are exempted. Operating costs are cheap on private yachts. There is not much cost to register, flag and secure a private yacht. Megayat can be classified by flagging for unlimited service. That means that megakyct can actually go anywhere. Registering a cruise ship to a private yacht has one big drawback. Yachts can not be used commercially. This will reduce potential revenue streams.
There are many decent cruise ships to sell at prices less than a million dollars, it will make a good private mega hat. For example, VERGINA SKY & # 39; I personally inspected a ship and I can talk about it first. The price we asked was $ 750,000. Here we summarize the details of the ship:
Current name: Vergina Sky
Ship details: Build: 1971, Japan - completely rebuilt in Greece in 1992
Dimension: LOA 97.8 mx LBP 82 m x Beam 14.6 mx Draft 4.49 m Dwt: 500 on 4, 49 GT / NT: 4, 668 / 1,717
Description: Pielstick 2 x 8400 bhp, twin screw, bow thruster, 3 x 500 kW generator, 16 knot, 2 saloon, restaurant, 3 bar, casino, duty free shop, discotheque, swimming pool, 120 cabins for 318 people. Greek lie
My comment after checking the ship
This is a small pocket cruiser. Overall 320 's just above, it is a small cruise ship. Many experienced cruise customers prefer smaller and more intimate cruise ships for various reasons. This ship can go to places where large cruise ships can not reach, such as shallow draft ports and many rivers. It has an omni-directional bow thruster and can be filled (of course, relatively well). I carefully looked through this ship from the engine log up to the report of the ultrasonic ship. This is a healthy and safe small cruise ship. It is also a very fuel efficient and economical ship. My first time on this ship was in the middle of the Greek summer. The ship was completely air-conditioned and it was cool and comfortable inside the ship. I examined the engine room and examined how many generators are running. I am pleased to be able to meet all electricity and air conditioning requirements by running only one of the Daihatsu's three generators. These generators are very economical in terms of fuel consumption and maintenance.
I negotiated with the owner, John Cosmus, and got some concessions. I fell to 500,000 dollars. And at that price he agreed to conform the ship to SOLAS 2005 and agreed to include the top side of the new paint. The ship, although including the bed linen, was well maintained, but the ship was laid down for many years. Its latest service was in the Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea. Cruise ships exclusively traded in the Mediterranean and the Black Sea tend to have smaller cabins and less facilities than typical cruise ships frequently visiting the Caribbean Sea. The conclusion is that this ship is not an exclusive model but an economic model. I was listening to the engine log when I was examining the engine room. When I opened it I noticed that all entries were in Greek. I was able to distinguish between some dates and other data I told to me when the ship was last used but I was unable to read the Greek entries so I sent the engine log to the ship owner Please hand me and teach me Greek. "In Greek, Mr. Cosma could not find humor.
Let's see the number of this ship. 100% of the acquisition cost was $ 500,000. 1% = $ 5000. 100 buyers can own 1 percent each. Because there are 120 cabins, each co-owner can have a private cabin with 20 cabins left. However, these cabins are small and small. All the rooms have a bath and shower, but the size is not comfortable for most people. For boats of this size, we recommend that there are more than 60 co-owners. Each can have two cabins and there is an option to convert the two cabins into two room suites. If you simply make the numbers, you can say that this ship has 50 buyers to buy 2% of the ship. The purchase price per owner is $ 10,000. If there are only 10 buyers, the acquisition cost per buyer will be $ 50,000. $ 50,000 buys little land house, but this ship will buy 12 cabins that can be remodeled to 10% of a ship like Vergina Sky and a rather large house.
At the end of the economic scale, co-owner can purchase 1% of economic cruise ship of about $ 5000. However, it is not necessary for all co-owner to have an even share on board. Ownership can be easily divided by 1% unit. If one buyer wants 5%, his acquisition cost will be $ 25,000. He is entitled to 5% of the ship's cabin and has 5 voting rights in flight management such as itinerary planning.
Before becoming a co-owner, it is essential to find other people with similar goals. I have preliminary DCRR (declaration
Promises, restrictions and restrictions). You can do this before you buy a ship. Write down your version on how you are conceiving the shared ownership of the cruise ship. Next, check if you can find people who agree with your goals and DCRC. There are some revisions and concessions to deal with other co-owners.
Step 1: Determine if you and your family have the desire and financial ability to become the owner of a joint cruise ship (or megayat).
Step 2: Let's find another person who shares ownership of the ship according to your concept.
Step 3: Buy a ship. This is a fun part.
Step 4: Buy a ship.
Step 5: Move the ship to service.
Even if you are not rich, I can afford to own a cruise ship jointly. But then the next logical question comes: why do you or someone want to live on a cruise ship? Who is suitable for this?
In the case of retirement or if you have a stable income from subordinate, you can afford to take a full-time cruise ship with a co-owner of the cruise ship. If you work in a field where you can work online at home, you probably can afford to become a co-owner of a cruise ship. Most modern ships have 24-7 satellite Internet services.
Cruise ship operation is expensive. Costs include fuel, labor, maintenance, repair, spare parts, food, port expenses, insurance, technical management, coastal management, registration, and other expenses for operating vessels. At first glance these costs may seem expensive, but in reality the cost of living in the ocean is actually negotiating considering what you get based on what you pay. The best value is not always translated to the cheapest price. If vessels are properly managed, management seeks top quality products, services and labor with the world's highest value. If the owner is dissatisfied with either technical management or coast management, replace it.
If there are many other co-owner of the ship that divides the operating costs of the ship, it is affordable for those with reasonable income such as retirement payment confirmation. I have certain operating costs figures, but I will not bore you with that data. In short, it is said that an average person in the middle class owns a part of a cruise ship and can not afford to be affordable if it can live full-time on a cruise ship.
For comparison purposes, it is noteworthy that land-based homes are also expensive. These expenses include real estate taxes, homeowner insurance, maintenance and repair, yard care, and utilities. In addition, there are transportation expenses and of course food expenses. Most people also spend money on entertainment. When these expenses are added, the maintenance cost of the living creatures on the ship is comparable.
There are some savings in fact when you live on a ship and make a living. Ship executive chefs can purchase large quantities of grocery and kitchen utensils and get better prices than average shoppers. Other savings bring the ability to inventory consumable items in countries with lower prices for food service management due to the mobility of large refrigerators and ships. Several crew and owner may choose to fish for leisure This may also provide some fresh food to the owner at a lower cost. Workers' savings are realized when hiring crews based on the world's best labor force participation rate. Law of supply and demand lowers prices in several places in the world. Proper ship management can take advantage of these imbalances. All savings are handed over to the owner of the cabin and create the same economic cost as it is expected to spend at a traditional house. The shipboard administrator must have accounting transparency so that all the books (financial records) can be opened and inspected by the owner. In addition, shipboard managers need to submit all financial records quarterly to external auditors to provide the owner's peace of mind. Everyone in the chain that is using any of the shipping operations funds should periodically audit. For example, a good way to audit an executive chef is that one or more co-owner of the co-owner of the ship goes to the food market district of each callport, they negotiate and a better executive chef The price of the same food as the price you bought. If the executive chef can not find a better deal than the co-owner of the ship, it is necessary to hand the walking paper to the executive chef. The position of the executive chef is an important position of the cruise ship. This is the status of trust, as he claims food to buy on the ship. He must not be tempted to accept bribes from vendors and suppliers. Therefore, he must know that he will be audited on a daily basis, and his employment will be terminated by his subsequent achievement.
The maximum value of all inboard craft is labor cost. Better cruise ships tend to be labor intensive and provide passengers constant attention and luxury luxury. All cruise ship hotel staff provides basic services such as cooking preparation and service, laundry, cabin steward, entertainment, casino operation, hairdresser operation. This is the place I do not want to screen. Due to the low cost of international labor I will prefer to go beyond the level that most cruise ships go to the spa area. Land luxury and special resort spa is very expensive but you can provide exact level of service, professionalism, skills, and treatments to the cruise ship at very low cost. The majority of spa costs are the main reason labor is the key. Labor is of great value to a cruise ship because cruise ship manager can choose workers who are easy to get the highest value from the world market.
Spa
Spa treatment is customized for each client. The spa generally provides the following services:
A pleasant massage therapy, a skin care treatment from European Eastern Principal, an expert hair & nail service, a treatment treatment using a deep cleansing facial at the beginning of the program, a series of detoxification and contour extraction lap, weight loss lap, marine mud and herb wrap Yes. Swedish massage, shiatsu massage, deep tissue treatment, maternity massage, therapeutic foot massage (reflexology), massage therapy such as French water treatment massage.
Healing therapy includes a variety of massages, reflexology, facials, pharming and many other body treatments. A wide variety of services and wellness programs specially designed to suit individual needs and desires. The full-service salon offers all kinds of hair treatments (including certified color list) including various manicures, pedicure, face lift and so on. For your hands. Extensive skin care includes: age management therapy, glycolic facial, anti-aging facial peel, microdermabrasion, teen facial, gentleman facial, nut resource facial, regular acne facial, vitamin C facial renewal Facial, Body Treatment: Decleor Sauna Mask, French Underwater Massage, Andromeda Salt Glow, Mummy Mad Mask, Seaweed Body Wrap, Safe Sun Treatment, Herbal Wrap; There are different treatments for hair and nails.
In addition, the spa can also facilitate weight loss programs, and administrative physical therapy. In a nutshell, you can treat like a king with the poor 's budget.
Labor Cost - International competition is most valuable to ship owners.
On the paper, it seems to show us the Philippine crew and ship to human beings. I love the Philippines. I stayed there many times. English is still widely spoken and usually spoken quite well. People are usually friendly and happy to see foreign tourists. The majority of vessels all over the world are managed by crews in the Philippines. The Philippine government has a fairly good structure and system to promote the export of Philippine workers. Despite how attractive it is on paper, I do not recommend hiring a crew member from the Philippines. Workers in the Philippines tend to envy the wages of others, especially others. They tend to think that they are getting the life end of the transaction. It is rare to find a Filipino who is content with his employment. I am convinced that there are many good employees in the Philippines, but more people are dissatisfied with being more satisfied with employment. There seems to be a cultural abnormality in the Philippines that the employer feels is a bad person. I hesitate to recommend the crew from the Philippines despite the superiority of the paper.
My recommendation (for what it is worth)
I know what I am writing here. I am the former president of the adventure spa cruise. My advice is not just anger that I can not tell. As of now, the second largest talent after a ship is India. I strongly recommend India to medical staff, all hotel staff including spa, all other staff except deck and engineering. Labor costs in India are very attractive. I also recommend using an Indian talent agency company. This is the best way if the owner of the ship does not need to deal with all employee problems or concerns. The personnel management agency receives pressure from the ship manager, and its service is very reasonable. Indian employees tend to be better employees than Filipinos. Indians speak English even though they are not Filipinos. Americans have a tendency to handle all things when drawing a qualification ethnicity using a wide brush. I love people in the Philippines, but as an employee I have more problems than Indian employees. I am aware that this statement is politically wrong and recently there is the possibility of being imprisoned in prison. I am not usually worried that it is politically correct. I call it the way I see it. I do not mind where I can put the card, I think that I do not have to stay in prison to speak my heart.
All deck and engineering positions should be filled with all Ukrainian crew. The ship realizes the greatest value for money with Ukrainian deck and engineering staff. Ukraine has a long ocean history and tradition. Maritime training and Ukrainian standards are the best in the world. Ukrainian decks and engineering staff are as good or superior as other engineers, but labor costs are very high. The labor of the deck officers and engineering staff is managed by international agreements including STCW (criteria for training, certification and monitoring for seafarers).
Bring a cruise ship to service
After acquiring a ship, some investment is necessary to make it operate. At this point, the co-owner has to reach several agreements in many ways. The cost of operating a cruise ship as mega-yakto (a very large private yacht) is far less than using a ship commercially. However, if you can afford to buy a ship, if you can easily meet the requirement of SOLAS 2010 and you can register and register it as a commercial ship, you can use the ship commercially to earn revenue and ROI You can generate profitability).
Commercial cruise ships have many marketing options. If the owner uses less than half of the cabin, there will be enough means to generate enough revenue to pay at least the operating expenses, and in some cases generate benefits beyond operating expenses. I will briefly touch on some of the options available to sell the capabilities of a cruise ship.
1. Conventional cruise. There is a trade-off here. You can earn money by providing traditional cruises. This requires the ship to have an itinerary suitable for the commercial cruising market.
2. Cargo and cargo. Some cruise ships have sufficient cargo capacity to produce some income by reserving cargo.
3. Assisted life. Cruise ships are suitable for aid life including crews and facilities. The mobility rate for aid life in the average city of the United States is higher than the average cost of cruising in the same period.
4. Time share. This is an option not available for conventional cruise ship operators, but it is saved if a co-owner can agree to this type of marketing and supplement the cabin which the co-owner does not use. I am not in here, but time share tends to raise high profits. If a co-owner uses less than half the ship's cabin for his personal use, the remaining cabin is likely to easily produce the total amount invested by all co-owning owners.
A ship easily meeting SOLAS 2010 tends to cost a little more to buy a front desk and to spend more money to get service. So I will give you some examples.

My personal evaluation of Orient Venus
It is a late model and a beautiful ship. It has many highly desirable attributes for residential. It is a high end luxury cruise ship with a very high tonnage vs. passenger ratio. This is very important for residential ships. The number of living rooms increases, and the space per passenger is far more important for residential ships than conventional cruise ships. When a passenger is on board a ship for a short period of time, it can bear a cramped residential area, but when you live on board all year round, the extra space is quite worthwhile. The owner is selling this ship for $ 22 million. It may seem like a high price, but by dividing by the number of cabins (195), the price per cabin is 102,564 dollars. This price is consistent with what seems to pay to the condominium. The last word I got from the owner is that they now sell ships at $ 18 million ($ 92,307 per cabin). All the cabins are outside the cabin and are getting bigger. This ship can accommodate 606 passengers and 120 crew members and can accommodate a total of 726 people.
Several boat brokers list this ship. I usually do not talk a broker to the ship. I like talking directly with shipowners. I am in contact with the owner of Orient Venus. I can possibly get this beautiful and beautiful ship under $ 15 million today and start some concessions and extras.
Another example of a high-end ship that may be a commercial cruise ship and accommodates more than 100 full-time residents to a co-owner is the Dream Princess, originally a Norwegian song.

The price I ask of this ship is 31 million dollars. If you divide the price you want by the number of cabins, the average cost per cabin is $ 57,620.もちろん、一部のキャビンは他のキャビンよりも優れているので、共同オーナーは購入に同意する前に共用することに同意する必要があります。
私は船の所有者のためのいくつかの悪いニュースとあなたのための良いニュースがあります。この船は尋ねる価格のために販売しません。
燃料
いくつかの理由から、船の燃料は自動車の燃料よりも安いです。もちろん、船舶の燃料には道路税はなく、また別の燃料です。船舶は主にIFO180またはIFO380で運航されます。ジェネレータエンジンはより複雑で、一般にディーゼル（MDO）を必要としがちですが、これは自動車ディーゼルよりも安いです。 IFO 180と380はMDOよりもはるかに安く、通常価格の約半分です。船は多くの燃料を消費する。だから燃料費が大きな懸念事項です。私はいくつかの提案があります。私が船の共同所有者であった場合は、燃料効率を上げ、運転コストを下げるために船にもう少し投資する意思があります。燃料効率を高めるためには多くのことができます。私は船体抵抗から始めます。インターナショナルペイントの新しいシリコーンベースの塗料があり、船体に適用すると、水の抵抗が適切に減り、燃料消費量が3〜5％減少します。プロペラ用の同様のコーティングも、燃料効率を高めることが証明されている。
船体およびプロップコーティングに加えて、劇的な燃料節約を達成するためのさらに有望な方法があります。
帆船を競走するための凧を開発し生産しているKiteshipという会社があります。これらのセーリング凧はマストを必要としません。凧は船の上を飛行し、ケーブルで取り付けられ、船から制御されます。 KiteshipのDave Culpは、非常に大きなカイトを従来のクルーズ船にフィッティングする技術的実現可能性調査を行っています。これは燃料消費を劇的に減少させる。それは燃料グズラーを「緑のマシン」に変換するだろう。これは、パワーボートをセイルボートに変換することと同じです。クルーズ船の設計は、従来の船が安全に収容できるセールの量を制限する。クルーズ船にはセイルボートのバラストが欠けています。主エンジンに加えて使用すると、凧は燃費を向上させます。メインエンジンを停止してカイトを使用して船を引っ張ると、船の速度は大幅に低下します。しかし、この場合、船舶はIFO（主機関燃料）を節約するだけでなく、MDO（発電機燃料）を節約することになる。凧が船のエンジンに支配されていない船を引っ張っていたならば、プロペラはディーゼル発電機を始動させることなく船の発電機を推進するために使用することができた。船が水中で非常にゆっくりと移動していたとしても、プロペラはメインエンジンから解放されれば逆転するでしょう。これは、船のエンジニアが達成するための非常に簡単で簡単な作業です。言い換えれば、船は凧で落とすことができ、その動きは船のプロペラに電力を供給し、燃料を使わずに空調に電力を供給する。トレードオフは速度の損失であり、またいくつかのタックが必要であり、実際の速度をさらに低下させる。ラッシュは何ですか？なぜ最大限の燃料節約に向かうのでしょうか？突発的な点は、高空飛行する大きな凧がクルーズ船を引っ張ることができることです。私がクルーズ船の共同所有者であった場合、私は燃料を節約するために最先端の技術を使用することに賛成する味方の共同所有者のように思えたでしょう。
市場には何百ものクルーズ船がありますが、ここでもうひとつ言及します。このクルーズ船にはRO / RO（ロールオン、ロールオフ）機能があります。これは、彼らの "おもちゃ"を持って来たいと思っているオーナーに乗っているときに非常に便利です。ガレージデッキは、6〜8台のトラック、または60〜80台の車を収容できます。それは、モーターホーム、トラベルトレーラー、キャンパー、キャビンクルーザー、スキーボート、ジェットスキー、帆船、ハウスボート、バスボート、オートバイ、ATV、車、トラックなどの共同オーナーのおもちゃに比べます。
