Rayan ATB — Official Website
Yacht broker, and the most followed yachting creator on social media. The background, the numbers, and every official account.
My name is Rayan ATB. I am a yacht broker, and I film the boats I sell. Since 2020 I have walked viewers through hundreds of yachts — engine rooms, crew quarters, tender garages, sea trials — and the audience that grew around those videos is now close to two million people.
This site is where that work becomes a transaction: yachts for sale, yachts for charter, management and refit. There is no switchboard between you and me. You write, I answer, and I follow the file from the first call to the day the keys change hands, in French or in English.
The numbers
The audience, and what it has produced
- Hundreds of yachts visited and presented on camera.
- An international clientele, in French and in English.
- Tens of millions of euros in closed deals.
Combined audience of the two official accounts listed further down, YouTube and Instagram. Round figures, given as such: no animated counter, nothing extrapolated.
What I do
Two jobs, one file
Filming yachts and selling them are not two careers that happen to share a name. Each one makes the other work.
Filming the boats
A listing gives you the length, the year and the asking price. It does not tell you what the engine room looks like once the hatches are up, whether the crew cabin is actually habitable, how the hull sits at cruising speed, or what the last refit really covered. So I film it.
A tour runs the whole boat, in order, with nothing cut out: flybridge, saloon, galley, cabins, engine room, tender garage, then the sea trial. The videos are published on YouTube in French and on Instagram in English. That is what puts a buyer at a viewing already knowing what to look at, and what puts a seller’s boat in front of an audience that knows boats instead of an anonymous portal.
Brokering the sale
Buying: a shortlist of three or four boats that fit the programme, the crew plan and the budget, with the reasons the others were left out — including the ones I would walk away from. Selling: a valuation that holds up, a filmed tour, a file with the refit history and the known faults in it, and only the enquiries from buyers who can complete.
Around those two, the services an owner needs once the boat is his: charter, charter and yacht management, refit. Offer, survey, sea trial, memorandum of agreement, flag, delivery — one person answers for the whole file, and that person is the one you saw in the video.
Since 2020
How this became the job
Six years between the first yacht tour and a brokerage practice serving an international clientele.
2020
The first tours
I start filming yacht walkthroughs where the boats are: shows, marinas, brokers’ pontoons. The rule is set from the first video and has not changed — the whole boat, in order, including what the photographs leave out.
2021
The audience becomes a market
The messages stop being about the filming and start being about the boats. What is this one worth, is it still available, what should I check before I fly out to see it. Those are broker questions, and they arrive by the hundred.
2022
First sales mandates
I start taking mandates. The video stops being a side product and becomes part of the sales file: the tour a buyer watches before the viewing, and the reason a boat stops sitting on the market for months.
2023
French and English, in parallel
YouTube carries the French-speaking audience, Instagram the English-speaking one. Enquiries start coming from outside Europe, and every file is run in two languages from the first message.
2024
Beyond the sale
Owners who bought through me ask who looks after the boat afterwards. Charter, management and refit follow, because a broker who disappears at the handover is not much use to an owner.
2025
A brokerage, not a channel
Sale, charter, management and refit handled in one place, with each yacht documented in the same detail as the videos: real specifications, honest photography, a full tour whenever one exists.
2026
Today
One official website in ten languages, and the same rule as the very first video: show the boat as it is. The figures further up this page are where six years of that have got to.
Verification
One website, two accounts, no one else
Official accounts
The accounts below are the only official accounts of Rayan ATB. No other profile is managed by him.

rayanatbyachts.com is the only official website of Rayan ATB.
Every yacht listed here, every video and every figure on this site is published by me. No other website, agency or social profile is authorised to represent me, to collect enquiries in my name, or to ask you for a deposit.
If an account claims to be me, check it against the list of official accounts on this page. If it is not on that list, it is not me — write to me here and I will confirm it.
