Yachts have always been popular, but their appeal skyrocketed during and after the pandemic. Remote jobs have also made it easier for people to merge leisure and work, with some opting for long-term engagements with yacht rental companies, like Cabo yacht rental company.

You can drive your yacht anywhere in the world if your yacht is the right size (30 – 45 feet long) to handle high waves and with adequate space for food, water, and personal items. You also need proof of yacht ownership, and visas for destinations you will be making stops.

The size of the yacht is critical. If it is too small, it may not have sufficient space for the necessities. If it is too big (over 50ft long), you’ll need an entire crew to run it seamlessly. 

A yacht gives you the freedom to explore the waters, and you may be tempted to visit different countries. However, before you leave, you need to ensure you will be safe and that you have all the supplies you will need during your journey. 

Here are some of the things you’ll need to drive a yacht worldwide.

Besides the above, you also need to ensure you are physically and mentally prepared. You need to have a physical check to ensure you are healthy. You don’t want to risk getting sick in the middle of your journey, with no access to medical services.

Ensure you have all the medication you need for your entire journey, or enough to last you until you get to a port. 

You also need to prepare yourself mentally, especially if you’re not used to living on a yacht. While living on a yacht, you will need to be prepared for living in  a smaller space and you may lose some of your privacy, especially if you have several people on board. 

It may take some time, but once you’re psychologically prepared, you’ll adjust fairly quickly. The journey will also be seamless if you have all the necessary documentation for the countries you wish to visit as well as enough food and supplies needed for everyone on the voyage.
