Before you start compiling your financial resources, consider this proposal: you could own a multi-million dollar Baia Italia' 70 Motor Yacht for an investment of only a tenth of the purchase price. All you need to do is share.
10 Fractional ownership shares in one of Phuket's most luxurious and exclusive motor yachts are now available to purchase for the price of just USD 425,000 each.

Fractional ownership is an attractive alternative to owning your own boat; share the purchase price, share the maintenance and repair costs and then share the time you don't spend on the boat.
Our fractional ownership program is flexible and can be purchased in varying packages of 10%, 20%, 50% and 100%.
You decide how much or how little you purchase according to your boating needs.
10% entitles you to 28 pre-booked days and unlimited stand-by days
20% entitles you to 56 pre-booked days and unlimited stand-by days
50% entitles you to 140 pre-booked days and unlimited stand-by days
For the time when the yacht is not in use shareholders will be given the option of offering the yacht out for charter and revenue raised will either be distributed evenly among shareholders or used to pay for ongoing maintenance costs.

The Neapolitan shipyard of Baia has always been known for its boats' distinctive styling. Wraparound windscreens and long, convex foredecks were a design signature, which still gives the older boats in the range an unmistakable look.
But then two years ago came nearly 43 feet of spiky, new-edge attitude, in the shape of the Baia One. Something was changing—and now we have the spectacular Baia 70 Italia. Gone are the sweeping curves, replaced by planes, arcs, and angles. She is aggressive, sleek, ultra-modern, yet at the same time utterly distinctive.
In spite of its radical new looks, the Italia 70 is every inch a Baia when it comes to power and performance. Even more than its bold approach to styling, Baia also has a reputation as a builder of no-compromise, high-performance sportboats. The hull and deck are molded in Aramat, a tough, weight-saving Kevlar-glass hybrid. Fitted with two Caterpillar C32s rated at 1,800 hp each, the 70 nearly achieved 58 mph during our sea trial off Cannes, France, giving a firm ride in a two- to three-foot chop with more than three tons of fuel and water onboard. (Baia claims to have seen 60 mph in more favorable conditions.) Once on plane, her straight-line acceleration was nothing short of phenomenal, zipping between 23 mph and 46 mph in 15 seconds.
The yacht's high-quality interior was designed by Carlo Galeazzi, and apart from its bold use of an unusually pale and deeply grained wenge hardwood, along with expansive panels of moabe veneer, it is particularly noticeable for having a two-berth crew cabin as part of the main accommodation. This is found to port, on the same side as the small galley, with access from the central lobby.
The two guest cabins, each with en-suite heads, are well lit by generous side windows and deck hatches, with plenty of breathing space and headroom throughout of at least 6'4".
The layout of the master cabin is particularly successful, with a diagonally offset double berth and useful quantities of stowage space under the berth, in drawers in the small sideboard, and in the large hanging locker to starboard.
Clever design touches are a particular feature of the 70. There are the side table lamps, with hi-fi speakers built in. On the foredeck an innocuous-looking hatch opens up to reveal a pair of speakers and an iPod docking station. The decked walkway around the front of the windscreen is practical as well as distinctive. Teak grill side tables in the cockpit add a touch of superyacht style, while the bespoke, angular deck hardware emphasizes individuality.
