There are two basic approaches to building a new luxury yacht. The first is a fully-custom build, starting from scratch with new designs. The second is best described as a semi-custom build, which normally utilizes an existing design which is customizable in many, but not all, respects. A fully-custom new build will reflect the owner's desires in nearly all respects. The semi-custom new build, on the other hand, utilizes an existing design which the owner finds desirable, but allows the owner to specify interior arrangements and some exterior design cues. The semi-custom new build is a much more economical approach then the fully-custom new build, because it incorporates existing designs and allows the builder to realize many of the economies of scale inherent in production boats.

    There are some circumstances where a semi-custom new build may end up costing no more then the purchase of a new production luxury yacht. This is particularly true in cases where the builder is starting a new line of luxury yachts and wants to deliver some new boats quickly to market without the high overhead of building unsold vessels. In these cases, an owner can often negotiate very favorable deals on a new semi-custom new build yacht at purchase prices which rival production boats but with many owner generated custom features.
