What They’re Looking For:
Yacht.com is calling on travel writers, yacht crew, and luxury lifestyle enthusiasts who know their way around the coastlines. They want original stories tied to coastal travel, yachting culture, and experience-led lifestyle content aimed at both seasoned seafarers and aspirational yacht travelers.
They’re especially interested in:
- Port & Destination Guides: Hidden gems in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, or South Pacific; luxury marinas with spas, restaurants, and boutique shopping.
- Sailing Itineraries: Think “7-Day Croatian Yacht Tour” or “Luxury Weekend Charter in Corsica.”
- Best-of Lists: SEO-friendly and practical, e.g. “Best Coastal Towns in Europe for Yacht Travelers” or “Top Charter Spots for Beginners.”
If you’ve cruised through underrated ports, lived onboard, or just obsess over maps and marina guides, your voice could be what they’re after.
Resources/Guides:
- Visit Yacht.com to understand their tone and content style.
- Check out travel listicles or marine blogs for structure and format inspiration.
- Use Google Maps and sailing forums to plan sample itineraries.
How To Get This Client:
Pitch with precision. Come up with 1–2 original, targeted ideas in their preferred categories (guides, itineraries, or best-of lists). If you’ve got high-quality landscape photos from your own travels, pitch those too — that’s an easy $50 boost per article.
Pro Tip: If you’re new to yacht culture but love coastal travel, research underrated sailing towns or ferry-accessible islands. You don’t need to own a yacht — just know what yacht travelers care about.
