Product Information
Cruise Yachts
Austal has recognised the need for a cruise product that sits between the cruise ship and the luxury motor yacht and is now leading the development of this mini-cruise sector.
The Cruise Yacht offers passengers many of the benefits of the luxury charter yacht but at a price which is much closer to that of the cruise ship.
Those seeking such a cruise are looking for something special and this product is designed to appeal to the segment of the overall cruise market for which the prospect of sharing a ship with two or three thousand other people is unattractive.
Austal Cruise Yachts combine an intimate onboard experience with the ability to visit spectacular locations that are inaccessible to traditional ships. Significant opportunities are emerging for Cruise Yachts, particularly in the eco-tourism and special interest sectors. For these sectors, operators need a ship small enough to access out-of-the way places where big ships can't go, for example, sheltered coral lagoons or isolated fjords.
Austal's specialty lies in tailoring the design and fitout to meet the intended role, thereby producing Cruise Yachts that will match virtually any combination of passenger demographics and operational requirements.
