Majesty in 2026: what a new UK dealer and a growing range mean for British buyers
Two developments have strengthened Majesty's position for British buyers in 2026. Gulf Craft, the UAE manufacturer behind Majesty, appointed
Burton Waters Boat Sales as the brand's official dealer for Southern UK on 26 May, while the product range expanded with the launch of the first Majesty 145. For buyers in the region, that creates a UK-based route into the full
Majesty yachts for sale portfolio, which currently runs from the Majesty 60 to the flagship Majesty 175.

A new UK dealer, and what it actually changes
Majesty appointed Burton Waters as its official Southern UK dealer in May 2026. Gulf Craft described the move as giving clients direct regional representation and support from initial enquiry and model selection through to after-sales guidance.
Northern England and Scotland are represented separately by Horizon Boat Sales, appointed in April 2026. Majesty's current dealer directory lists both Burton Waters and Horizon Boat Sales as UK representatives.
For anyone moving into larger yachts, the
nine essential steps to buying a boat still matter, but questions around berthing, delivery, operating costs, insurance, crew and after-sales support become more significant.
Burton Waters Managing Director Adam Cox said at the dealership announcement that many of the company's clients had grown with the business and were looking for larger, more sophisticated yachts as their boating ambitions developed. That creates a natural progression for an owner who may previously have bought something such as a
Merry Fisher weekender but now wants considerably more space and capability.
Gulf Craft also described the UK as an important Majesty market with a strong boating culture. The UK's leisure marine industry is represented nationally by
British Marine.
A growing range, led by the Majesty 145
The first Majesty 145 was officially launched on 23 April 2026. Despite its name, its published overall length is 45.25 metres, or 148ft 4in. It has six guest cabins and four crew cabins.
The yacht was designed by Cristiano Gatto Design in cooperation with Gulf Craft's in-house design studio. Its features include dual infinity-style pools, an infrared sauna, spa areas and a gym, while the semi-custom platform allows different configurations across parts of the stern, bow and upper decks.
The concept was presented and the first hull sold at the Dubai International Boat Show in February 2025 before launching in April 2026. Majesty said at launch that the Majesty 160 was due to follow later in the year. The 160 remains part of Majesty's current published fleet alongside the Majesty 175 flagship.
You can explore the current models on the official
Majesty Yachts website.
A growing model range is useful for buyers because it provides more choice across size, accommodation and cruising requirements. It should not, however, be treated as a guarantee of future resale values. If you are comparing
new versus used boats, condition, specification, maintenance history and market demand remain important. The same applies when assessing
new powerboat models elsewhere in the market.
Which Majesty suits how you actually cruise?
The current Yacht Collection comprises the Majesty 60, 62, 65 and 72. The Superyacht Collection includes the Majesty 100 Terrace, 112, 120, 145, 160 and 175.
Choose according to how you intend to use the yacht rather than length alone. Before fixing on a model, work through
whether a boat is right for you and revisit the
basic steps to buying a boat.
Guest numbers, cruising range, home berth, draught, storage, crew accommodation and operating requirements all become increasingly important as yachts grow. Understanding the
different types of motorboats also helps put a flybridge yacht or superyacht into context.
There is no universal yacht length at which a UK private owner must employ permanent professional crew. Practical crewing depends on the yacht, owner's experience, insurance requirements, flag-state and certification requirements, and how the vessel will be operated.
Where Majesty sits next to Jeanneau and Prestige
Within Burton Waters' portfolio, the
Jeanneau range covers a broad selection of smaller powerboats and cruisers, while
Prestige yachts occupy the luxury motor-yacht market below the largest Majesty models.
Majesty extends the choice further into larger yachts and superyachts. The
guide to the Prestige range of luxury yachts provides a useful comparison if you are deciding whether moving into Majesty is the right next step.
Costs, finance and ownership in sterling
Majesty does not publish one standard UK price covering the range. Final cost depends on the model, engines, specification, interior choices, equipment and any semi-custom options.
Purchase price is only part of the calculation. Model the
ongoing costs of owning a boat before committing, including berthing, insurance, servicing, maintenance, fuel and any professional crew.
Even routine work such as
winterising your boat becomes more substantial as yacht size and onboard systems increase.
Burton Waters Marina Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under FRN 739086. It acts as a credit broker rather than a lender and introduces eligible customers to third-party lenders. Finance is subject to status, income and lender terms.
If you already own a boat, Burton Waters offers a
cash offer route as well as
boat brokerage. Consider the timing of the sale alongside deposits and delivery for the replacement yacht.
Support after you buy
A larger yacht requires an ownership and support plan as well as a purchase agreement. Before ordering, clarify commissioning, delivery, warranty arrangements, servicing and who will provide technical support at your intended home port.
Where manufacturer or specialist support is required, the exact arrangements should be confirmed for the yacht and location rather than assumed to be handled entirely by the local dealer.
If you are relatively
new to boating, suitable training and familiarisation can make moving into a larger motor yacht safer and more manageable.
For a pre-owned Majesty, an independent
boat survey should also be considered. Condition, maintenance history, equipment and previous use can matter as much as the model or asking price.
