           Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity) .

If that particular yacht is on Earth, then gravity = 9.8 m/s² .

                                    14,700 N = (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)

Divide each side by (9.8 m/s²): 

                                     mass = 14,700 N / 9.8 m/s²

                                              =  1,500 kilograms .
