Boatbuilding News’ Post

What does one do on a flight to NYC? ✈️ 🇺🇸 🥂 Champagne for breakfast to start (of course) but then a study of the Global Order Book 2025 (or is this just me 🤔 🤓) I’ll delve into more detail in future posts but … for a start. 💥 It seems the superyacht market is doing better than expected! We are still cruising the post-Covid boom! ⬇️ Yes, the number of yachts in production has dropped a bit in 2024 (from 1,203 to 1,138) but that’s still way ahead of the 821 seen in 2021. 🤩 What's really exciting is how shipyards are thinking ahead! Building on spec so they have readily available yachts to capture the ‘I want it nows’ 🥰 Even though there are fewer yachts being built, the ones in the works are bigger and more luxurious. The total gross tonnage has jumped by 5.3%, and yachts are now averaging 40 meters and 507 GT! ✨ It’s clear numbers that show buyers want larger, more extravagant yachts! 👀 The next few years are an interesting watch but for now, at least, the trend is all about bigger and better yachts! 📰 Boatbuilding News 🖥️ Navis Consulting #boatbuildingnews #navisconsulting #wearestr #superyacht
