These boats are also known as "megayachts", "gigayachts" and even "terayachts", usually depending on length. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It has been generally accepted by naval architects and industry executives that superyachts range from 37 m (≈120 ft) to 60 m (≈200 ft), while those over 60 m are known as megayachts and boats over 90 m (≈300 ft) have ...
