German charter yachts flagged vessels are known for their high quality and their average age is low. Superyacht owners under German flag have nothing to hide.
The choice of flag affects many aspects, such as taxes to be paid, privacy protection, liability risk and freedom of travel. However, choosing a particular state for registration also carries some responsibility.
