Whether you're based locally or exploring opportunities in the Asia-Pacific market, this listing is worth considering.

Thinking about buying a well-built yacht in Asia? The 2014 Monte Carlo MC5, currently listed in Hong Kong, combines modern design with practical features and regional advantages. It’s a solid option for personal cruising and holds good potential for resale. Whether you're based locally or exploring opportunities in the Asia-Pacific market, this listing is worth considering.


Here are the top 5 reasons why buying a Monte Carlo MC5 in Hong Kong makes perfect sense:


1. Licensed and Ready for Hong Kong Waters


The MC5 already holds a Grade 2 license, which means you can operate it privately in Hong Kong waters without going through extra approvals or waiting on paperwork. That’s a major advantage if you're looking to spend weekends around Victoria Harbour, explore the South China Sea, or cruise out to nearby islands.


2. Strategic Location for the Asia-Pacific Market


Being based in Hong Kong gives this yacht more than just scenic cruising routes. It places you right in the heart of Asia’s marine network with direct access to top marinas, yacht clubs, service providers, and a thriving community of buyers and brokers.


Whether your plan is to:


  • Use it for private family getaways

  • Register it for charter within the Asia-Pacific

  • Or hold it as an asset for future resale


Hong Kong makes all three paths easier and more valuable. You're not just buying a boat, you’re buying into one of the most strategic locations for boating in the region.


3. World-Class Marina Access and Yacht Services


Hong Kong is home to some of the region’s best marina infrastructure, from Gold Coast to Aberdeen and Discovery Bay. As an MC5 owner, you’ll have access to everything you need to keep the yacht in top condition and enjoy it to the fullest.


That includes:


  • Reliable fueling and maintenance services

  • Dry docking and haul-out facilities

  • Upscale amenities for relaxing onboard or entertaining guests


And beyond the logistics, there’s an evolving yachting lifestyle here. With events, clubs, and a growing community of passionate boaters. So you’re not just buying a place to dock. You’re stepping into a scene that makes ownership more enjoyable, and more connected.


4. European Design with Global Appeal


The Monte Carlo MC5, built by Monte Carlo Yachts (a Beneteau brand), brings Italian style and French engineering to Asia. That pedigree appeals not only to local buyers, but also to expats, investors, and international yachting enthusiasts.


The yacht comes equipped with:


  • Twin Volvo IPS600 engines for smooth, efficient cruising

  • A hydraulic swim platform that adds convenience and fun

  • A 3-cabin layout finished with refined materials


Whether you’re looking at long-term ownership or thinking resale down the line, this model holds its value well both in Hong Kong and abroad.


5. Resale and Online Auction Potential


Because of its brand strength, condition, and features, the MC5 is highly resaleable  and Hong Kong is one of the most transparent markets for luxury boat transactions.

Right now, this yacht is listed and open for private offers. If unsold, it enters a 7-day Online Boat Auction ending September 10, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. (GMT+8).


  • Opening bid: USD 247,000
