Mediterranean Yacht Sales

Mediterranean Yacht Sales is the exclusive Malta representative for two of the best-known names in boat building, Beneteau and Lagoon. Its office sits on the Ta' Xbiex seafront, in the yachting heart of the island, and it has worked in the industry since 1989. Whether you want a first sailing yacht, a family catamaran or a motor boat for coastal cruising, this is where the Beneteau range is sold on the island. It is a company of Tauss Holdings and is listed in our directory of yacht brokers in Malta.

For UK buyers, Malta is a practical place to take delivery and keep a boat, with year-round cruising grounds on the doorstep. Our Malta weather guide shows how long the sailing season runs.

Sailing yachts and catamarans

The sailing catalogue runs to more than thirty models. Beneteau's Oceanis cruisers range from the Oceanis 30.1 up to the Oceanis Yacht 60, and the First line covers performance boats from the First 14 to the First 53, including special editions, plus the Figaro Beneteau III. Lagoon catamarans run from the Lagoon 38 to the Lagoon Eighty2, with the Lagoon 42, 43, 46, 51, 55, 60, Sixty5 and Seventy7 between them. A Lagoon 46 is the boat shown on the home page.

Catamaran owners can also join Club Lagoon, which gives members offers and privileged access to partner marinas around the world, and the Lagoon range includes a power catamaran, the Lagoon Seventy8. Sailing off Malta, Gozo and Comino is a highlight of any visit, and our Gozo guide and Blue Lagoon guide show where owners and charter guests like to anchor.

Motor boats and brokerage

The motor catalogue lists around twenty-six boats. Antares models run from the Antares 6 to the Antares 12, the Flyer line from the Flyer 7 to the Flyer 10 in Sundeck and Spacedeck layouts, and the Gran Turismo range from the 32 to the 45. Swift Trawler models, from the 37 to the 54, and the Grand Trawler 63 round out the motor range. Beyond new boats, there are about fifteen yachts in the brokerage, and owners who want to sell can email the team, so it is a route for both buying and selling second-hand. Having new and used boats side by side lets you compare a new hull with a brokerage yacht before deciding.

Service, management and charters

The business also sells yacht equipment and spare parts and offers aftersales service, yacht management and charters. A named aftersales coordinator sits within the team, and the business aims to help customers realise the full potential of a unique boating experience, from the first viewing through to servicing. Its website also carries sections for new boats, brokerage, equipment, an event gallery and news, so you can see what is in stock and what the team has been doing before you call in. If you are weighing the costs of ownership, see our guides to the corporate tax structure in Malta and the Malta tax guide for UK nationals, and for boat hire without owning, try Adventure Cruises Malta.
