Mega-Yachts: Issues and Considerations

There are yachts—and then there are mega-yachts. And while the purchase or ownership of any sized yacht presents a certain set of unique issue and challenges such as yacht safety and regulatory requirements, purchasing or owning a mega-yacht (yachts in excess of 150 feet in length) present something else entirely.
