Etymology

The word 'yacht' is believed to have originated from the Dutch word 'jacht', which means 'hunt' or 'chase'. Originally, yachts were small, fast sailing vessels used by the Dutch navy to pursue pirates and other enemies. Over time, yachts evolved into luxury vessels for leisure purposes, including vacations. Yacht vacations have become popular among the affluent due to the comfort and exclusivity they offer.
