Which Superyacht is Right for You?

The type of superyachts best suited for you depends on the on-water experience you want. You may want power and speed, ensuring a motor-powered superyacht is right for you. Alternatively, you may want to feel the wind pushing you across the water, so a sailing yacht is best suited for your needs. In either respect, the most popular superyachts feature incredible amenities, top performance and exceptional design that allows them to retain their value for resale or charter.

When choosing the ideal superyacht, you – with the help of your broker – will weigh various options and features, including style, type of yacht, build pedigree, crew layout, facilities, décor and more. Whether you are looking for a large, modern motor yacht or a classically styled gentlemen’s yacht, Northrop & Johnson has a wide selection of superyacht types available for sale.

When buying or building a yacht, remember: first and foremost, your yacht is for you and your family or friends to use. What type of experience and use are you looking for in your ownership? Are you interested in a new or used yacht? Custom built or semi-custom? How are you planning to use your yacht? If you are planning to charter your yacht to help offset some of the running costs, then factor in the charterer, but remember, a yacht is very personal and you must consider your own needs as a priority.

Types of Superyachts

The type of yacht will shape the experience for the owner. The most popular superyachts (be they sail or motor) have a combination of elements that make them strong across the board both during ownership and in resale value and charter success. From the style and type of yacht and the build pedigree to the crew layout, the facilities and even the décor, there are many factors that, when combined, influence the enjoyment of yacht ownership. Whether you are looking for a large, modern motor yacht or a classically styled gentlemen’s yacht, Northrop & Johnson has a wide selection of superyacht types available for sale. When buying or building a yacht, remember that first and foremost your yacht is for you and your family or friends to use. What type of experience and use are you looking for in your ownership?

Best Ways of Finding Yacht Salvage Boats for Sale

Ideal theft recovery boats for sale.

Salvage boats for sale are a welcome choice for anyone who does not mind paying repairs to get the boat back to its normal condition. There are times when things do not go as planned and boats are damaged, but it is still possible to salvage them. Yacht Salvage is often sold at very low prices because at most times, the owners are simply trying to get rid of them.

Insurance companies and owners usually give hurricane damaged boats for sale and theft recovery boats for sale at Salvage boat auction in the coastal areas after major storms or other natural disasters take place. A good example of such an occurrence is hurricane Dorian that hit the Bahamas. This is an event that had a great impact on the properties that had been set up in the area and this included boats and houses. The sales skyrocket after the hurricane as the residents counted their losses.

Ideal wrecked boats for sale

Most people who choose to buy salvage boats for sale usually take them to people with skills to do the repairs. In some cases, the people who make the purchases already have the resources and the skills that are needed to make the boat as good as new if not better.

There are abundantly used theft recovery boats for sale across the nation that may be willing to pay bottom-dollar for an old boat if they think it might hold potential for a refit and then resale. If you can pull your boat to them on its own trailer you stand a fair chance of getting a buck or two for that old rig – after all, if you can bring it to them, that means the trailer’s roadworthy and that alone has some value.

Deciding on the best yacht salvage boats for sale

The first thing to do after you find hurricane salvage boats for sale is to find out the kind of condition that the boat was in before the disaster hit. When you have an idea about the kind of condition, the boat was in before the loss occurred. It is very important. You need to think of it as a boat that does not have any damage. This helps you determine whether it was maintained well and whether there were any other damages that existed.

You need to ask all the necessary questions before buying salvage yachts for sale, theft recovery boats for sale, or any other old boat. You need to pick a boat that can be fixed without necessarily working on the entire boat. This makes it possible to know the pre-loss value of the boat and therefore you may place realistic offers or bid.

Considering damage

After successfully determining the pre-loss condition of the Yacht Salvage, you now have to consider the extent of the damage caused by the event that took place. This helps you evaluate the damages and establish what will be needed for the repairs. When you are considering the damage, you should overestimate it.

Types of damage that you can find on salvage boats for sale

You need to understand the damages that could possibly occur to a boat during the disaster. There are different types and they include:

In the case of Submersion, hurricane damaged  boats for sale have the most damage. Submersion damages the entire boat. Electronics equipment may be likely to tumble down by the water, but there is a possibility of saving the  boat engine  if it is taken care of instantly. This time it may be too late to prevent any actual damage and there are chances of hidden damage.

Dock rash happens when the boat rubs against other flutters, pilings, and the docks. Fixing can be done in some cases, but you may have to do some work to access some areas.  You will need some skills repairing this kind of wrecked boats for sale .

Wind damage

Repairable boats could also be wind damaged and this can be noted on the sails and canvas that could be shredded. Structural damage can also be caused by wind. The mast could also fall and cause damage to the deck and the top of the cabin. When there is wind rain, then more damage could occur inside the boat.

Salvage damage

Another thing you could notice when you buy salvage boats for sale. This happens as the container is being recovered. This is because the process could involve considerable stress and strains of drawing the boat from the water and into a vehicle for transport

This is also common and causes damage to the gear and fittings underwater. You may have to check the propeller shafts, rudders, keels, and props. You need to carefully inspect the insides of the boat and ensure you look at the steering system as well.

It is possible for hurricane salvage boats for sale to have one or more of the above damages. This is why a buyer needs to get as much information as possible about the boat that they are buying. You can look for an expert opinion before boat purchase .

Damage on salvage boats/wrecked boats for sale

Buying a boat with known damage is usually forthright, but the buyer needs to be prepared for unknown damage which may reveal itself during the course of repair. I suggest finding a reputable boatyard to affect the repairs. Documentation that the repair was done professionally should settle any prospective buyer’s concerns down the road when it is time to resell. I also suggest having a contingency budget for those unknowns as part of your overall approach. Buying a storm-damaged boat will take some risk, effort, and investment, but can result in keeping a good boat.

Montana man used animal tissue and testicles to breed ‘giant’ sheep for sale to hunting preserves

This undated handout photo provided by the Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks, shows a sheep nicknamed Montana Mountain King that was part of unlawful scheme to create large, hybrid species of wild sheep for sale to hunting preserves in Texas. A Montana man pleaded guilty on Tuesday, March 12, 2024, to federal wildlife trafficking charges in the case. (Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks via AP)

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A Montana rancher illegally used tissue and testicles from wild sheep killed by hunters in central Asia and the U.S. to breed “giant” hybrid sheep for sale to private hunting preserves in Texas, according to court documents and federal prosecutors.

Arthur “Jack” Schubarth, 80, of Vaughn, Montana pleaded guilty to felony charges of wildlife trafficking and conspiracy to traffic wildlife during an appearance Tuesday before a federal judge in Great Falls. Each count carries a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

Court documents describe a yearslong conspiracy, beginning in 2013, in which Schubarth and at least five other people sought to create “giant sheep hybrids” by cross-breeding different species. Their goal was to garner high prices from hunting preserves where people shoot captive trophy game animals for a fee.

Using biological tissue obtained from a hunter who killed a wild sheep in Kyrgyzstan belonging to the world’s largest species of the animals — Marco Polo argali sheep — Schubarth procured cloned embryos of the animal from a lab, according to court documents.

AP AUDIO: Montana man used animal tissue and testicles to breed ‘giant’ sheep for sale to hunting preserves.

Federal prosecutors say a Montana rancher illegally used tissue and testicles from wild sheep that were killed by hunters in central Asia and the U.S. to breed “giant” sheep hybrids for sale to private hunting preserves in Texas. AP’s Lisa Dwyer reports.

The embryos were later implanted in a ewe, resulting in a pure Marco Polo argali sheep that Schubert named “Montana Mountain King,” the documents show. Semen from Montana Mountain King was used to artificially impregnate other ewes to create a larger and more valuable species of sheep, including one offspring that he reached an agreement to sell to two people in Texas for $10,000, according to the documents.

Male argali sheep can top 300 pounds with horns up to 5 feet long, according to officials, making them prized among some hunters. They are protected under international convention as a threatened species and outlawed for import into Montana to protect native sheep from disease and hybridization.

A person who was not named in court documents shipped 74 ewes of a prohibited sheep species from Minnesota to Schubarth’s ranch to be artificially inseminated with Montana Mountain King semen, the documents show. Offspring that had only a portion of the central Asian sheep’s genetics sold for lesser amounts.

In 2019, Schubarth paid $400 to a hunting guide for testicles from a trophy-sized Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep killed in Montana. Schubarth extracted semen from bighorn sheep testicles and used it to breed large bighorn sheep and sheep crossbred with the argali species, the documents show.

Assistant U.S. Attorney General Todd Kim described Schubarth’s actions as “an audacious scheme to create massive hybrid sheep species to be sold and hunted as trophies.” Kim said the defendant violated the Lacey Act that restricts wildlife trafficking and prohibits the sale of falsely labeled wildlife.

Schubarth said when reached by telephone on Wednesday that his attorney had advised him not to talk about the case.

“I would love to talk about it but can’t do it now,” he said. His attorney, Jason Holden, did not immediately respond to telephone messages seeking comment.

Authorities agreed under the terms of a plea deal not to pursue further charges against the defendant pending his cooperation in the government’s ongoing investigation in the wildlife trafficking case.

Montana Mountain King is in the custody of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, according to Department of Justice spokesperson Matthew Nies. As part of the plea deal, Schubert agreed to quarantine any other sheep containing Marco Polo argali genetics and any bighorn sheep that were harvested from the wild.

The deal also allows federal wildlife officials to inspect and, if needed, neuter the animals.

Captive animal facilities where game species can be raised and hunted were banned in Montana under a 2000 ballot initiative. But they remain legal in some other states.

Schubarth’s 215-acre ranch is state-licensed as an alternative livestock facility, said Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks spokesperson Greg Lemon. It was grandfathered in when the 2000 ballot initiative passed and has continued to operate, although hunting is prohibited, Lemon said.

Sentencing for Schubarth is set for July 11 before U.S. District Judge Brian Morris.

The new office ritual? Zyn nicotine pouches

• Nicotine pouches are finding an audience with people who view them as a healthier alternative to other products.
• Five men with prior nicotine or tobacco use habits told BI they use Zyn to help them focus.
• "If I need to work on something that's a little bit more important than other things — like it's just a part of the routine," one said.

At a prior job, Clay Coomer would sometimes see a colleague in the hallway and have a quick exchange.

"He would be like, 'Hey, you need one?'" Coomer told Business Insider.

The item in question was a Zyn, a brand of nicotine pouch that users often place under their lips to get a boost . Coomer and his former coworker would each share their stash when the other's was running low.

For Coomer, who's 36 and works in marketing, popping in a Zyn is just sometimes how he gets hard work done.

"If I need to have a challenging conversation with somebody or if I need to work on something that's a little bit more important than other things — like it's just a part of the routine," he said.

Coomer isn't alone. BI spoke with a handful of men in various fields who are relying on the lift they get from the nicotine as a way to get through the day — especially the hardest things that can be difficult to tackle — without the mess and health risks of chewing tobacco or cigarettes.

All had used nicotine or tobacco products previously and described turning to Zyn because they viewed it as a healthier or cleaner alternative to the likes of dip, vaping, or cigarettes.

The rise of Zyn

Zyn has been available for sale in the US since 2014 but has seen wider popularity recently.

Shipments of the nicotine pouches in the US in 2023 were up 62% year-over-year . And while product shipments can outpace consumer sales, Tobacco giant Philip Morris International, which owns Zyn's manufacturer, Swedish Match, forecasts even greater shipping volume this year. Zyn pouches have found favor with everyone from high-powered Wall Street traders to Tucker Carlson and GOP lawmakers .

There are even "Zynfluencers," who post videos on social media of themselves slipping pouches under their lips.

One 28-year-old corporate performance management consultant who previously used dip says he views Zyn as "the lesser of all the evils" among nicotine and tobacco products in terms of health risks.

Some sources asked not to be named because they didn't want to jeopardize future job prospects, but their identities are known to BI.

Raymond Niaura, chair of the Department of Epidemiology at New York University and an expert on tobacco dependence, told BI that there is risk of addiction with any product containing nicotine. (The FDA has issued a similar warning .) Niaura added that pouches tend to deliver less nicotine than cigarettes, which he said are more addictive. Instead, the pouches are more akin to nicotine replacement therapy.

Niaura said, in general, a nicotine pouch is a "pretty clean product" yet still could carry risks: Nicotine, for example, can increase heart rate and blood pressure , so someone at risk for cardiovascular disease might want to be particularly careful using it.

"It's early days. It's hard to say for sure where these products fit in," he said, referring to how addictive products like Zyn might be.

The 'hand of God'

As for using a pouch at work, nicotine pouches tend to be so small they're nearly invisible to others, which is another part of the appeal for some users. Not that it's such a big deal anyway, several users told BI, because the pouches don't contain tobacco. So there's not the same stigma there might be with tobacco products.

"Nobody really cares," Coomer said, referring to using Zyn at startups. When he worked for a big blue chip company, he was somewhat more guarded about pulling out his canister of Zyn or keeping it in his pocket so it didn't look like a container of dip.

Nate Palmer is a personal trainer, podcaster, and founder of Million Dollar Body Labs . He works remotely with clients to improve their fitness and overall health. He chewed nicotine gum about a decade ago as a pick-me-up. But after not using nicotine for a while, he wasn't prepared for the hit he got when he popped a 6 mg pouch of Zyn. "I felt like the hand of God on my central nervous system. I was just feeling amazing. And then I just had to go throw up." Palmer has since downshifted to the 3 mg pouches.

Now, he holds himself to four pouches a day. And while he said he's not quite addicted, he does miss it when he hasn't done it for a while, he said. For now, it's become part of his routine when he has to concentrate on something demanding.

"I basically will just do it now for, like, podcasts or if I've got like a sales call or something where I'm like, I need to get dialed in," he said. "I've been doing it like at kid's birthday parties where I'm like, 'I don't want to talk to these people. I need to be more friendly.'"

Palmer sees using Zyn as an important part of his ritual around essential work. He advises his clients to focus on creating rituals to pair something difficult with something that can act as a reward, a concept called temptation coupling. In his case, his ritual helps him get through major tasks at work. "When I sit down when I try to do deep work, like I kind of have a ritual now where I put on some binaural beats from Spotify, I'll put a Zyn in and then, you know, I'll make sure that I have my list of stuff I need to do," he said.

Getting over the hump

Chandler, a 24-year-old software engineer who started smoking cigarettes in his teens before switching to vaping and now Zyns, said the pouches give him a similar "dopamine rush" without "feeling the burn in your lungs and in your throat" as he did with those other products. Chandler works from home but says his boss is aware of his Zyn use at work and has no issue with it.

"When I'm really trying to focus and use my brain and think hard, I'm just pounding through the pouches and then that kind of tapers off as the workday ends," he said.

He pops a Zyn "first thing" in the mornings and estimates he goes through a little over a can, which contains 15 pouches, each workday.

"I think it's that once that nicotine buzz wears off, it's like a kind of background noise in your brain that's like, 'Oh, I should take another.' It just grows the longer that you don't have it, and that in and of itself becomes distracting," he said. "It's not like it is not something that helps you focus, it's that not taking it really can take away from your focus."

A 24-year-old senior analyst who was a self-described "part of the JUUL population" before switching to Zyn says the pouches "get me into the right headspace and keep me focused more or less." He works five days a week in the office but says there's no stigma around using it there. He starts his days taking a Zyn with his morning coffee and has between 5 to 10 in the course of a day.

"I understand that nicotine is an addictive drug, but at the same time it's just like when you have a Zyn in, it just helps you focus," he said.

Sam Dashiell, a Philip Morris spokesperson, said in a statement to BI that Zyn is intended for people 21 and over who are using nicotine and wish to continue doing so. He said the best thing someone with health concerns can do is to quit or not ever use nicotine.

"Nicotine is addictive and not risk-free, but it's the high levels of other harmful chemicals in cigarette smoke that are the primary cause of tobacco-related diseases—not nicotine," Dashiell wrote. The company has said the average Zyn user is 39 years old.

A plan to ditch nicotine

Several of the Zyn users said they're using the pouches as a stepping stone on the path to eventually get off nicotine altogether.

"Ultimately in the future I would like to not be a nicotine user. I think when I was young and JUULs were the big thing and then all that stuff happened, a lot of people I would say got stuck with the nicotine addiction," the analyst said, referring to the FDA's JUUL ban . "So I think being able to more or less wean off on Zyns seems a lot easier than the JUULs."

Chandler too is fine using Zyn for now, at work and otherwise, as he works on reducing his nicotine use but also wants to quit it eventually. His reasoning: "The health hits that you take from doing it and just how much you come to rely on it, where you would go nuts if you didn't have access to it for a few hours."

"It's masked a lot by how OK it is in culture, but it's an addiction and I feel bad for anybody that gets sucked into it because it's awful, awful to quit," he said. "If I could go back and never start using nicotine, I would."
