A boat which is driven by one or several engines is known as a motor boat, or if larger in size, a motor yacht. In contrast to motor boats, a motor yacht is usually seaworthy. A motor yacht is used for leisure purposes and can be lived in. A motor boat is called a motor yacht from about 15 meters length. The interiors range from simple cabins to luxury homes.

The motor yacht to rent: holidays on the water
As an alternative to owning a motor yacht, the charter of a motor yacht is becoming increasingly popular. The (subjective) disadvantages of owning a private motor yacht (maintenance, capital and running costs, distance to the mooring, climate and area dependence) can be avoided and nothing can stand in the way of the water sports holiday. A motor yacht can be rented (charted) in various sizes and price ranges in the most diverse districts.
The longest and most famous motor yacht in the world
- "Eclipse": The in 2008/2009 built luxury mega motor yacht owned by the Russian governor Roman Abramovich is currently the longest motor yacht in the world, with a length of 163 meters.
