6 Amazing Waterfront Homes that are Perfect for Boat Owners

As the old saying goes, the two happiest days for boat owners are the day they buy the boat and the day they sell it. But, this year’s The Wealth Report from Douglas Elliman’s global partner Knight Frank Residential tells a different story. In the Luxury Spending Trends section of the report, which highlights common purchases among Ultra High Net Worth Individuals or UHNWIs over the past year, “The Top Five Most Owned Luxury Assets” were motor yachts as #1 and sailing yachts as #2. Once you have the perfect boat, you need an exquisite home with a boat dock or slip that makes it easy to take the boat out for a full-day sail or a sunset cruise. From the Hamptons to Florida, these homes will be a perfect complement to your life on the water.   7 Harbor Point, Key Biscayne, FL This property has a 90-foot wood dock that can accommodate an assortment of yachts and boats.  What makes this home truly unique is it’s one of very few in South Florida with the combination of a dock and private beach.
