How is the value score calculated?
The value score (0β100) combines multiple factors to rank yachts by overall value:
- Accommodation (30 pts) β Cabins and berths capacity
- Space efficiency (20 pts) β Cabins per meter of LOA
- Data completeness (15 pts) β How thoroughly specs are documented
- Spec richness (15 pts) β Number of verified data points
- Price-per-meter (20 pts) β Market pricing relative to size (when available)
Scores improve as more pricing and spec data becomes available.
