A fleet of Queensland-built luxury motor yachts valued at more than $45 million were driven onto a semi-submersible ship in the Port of Brisbane, ahead of their 8000 nautical mile voyage to Mexico and the east coast of the United States.

A total of 10 Riviera motor yachts will utilise the unique DYT Yacht Transport float on/float off method rather than being craned in the traditional manner on to a container ship to be positioned either under deck or on deck amongst containers.

Four of the motor yachts will be floated off the ship in Ensenada in Mexico where they will be driven north to their final destinations in California. The remaining six yachts will be offloaded in Port Everglades, the cruise port in Fort Lauderdale in Florida.  

Australia exported ships, boats and floating structures in 2023 valued at $416 million, with the U.S. accounting for 32% of that, or $137 million (source: TrendEconomy)
