yacht owners

Wealthy seafaring set

Yacht owners are people who own yachts—large recreational boats typically associated with significant wealth.

The term often carries connotations of privilege and elite status, sometimes used dismissively to suggest someone is out of touch with ordinary concerns: Tax cuts for yacht owners while schools crumble.

The phrase functions as shorthand for the very rich.
