As the historically-slow months for brokerage sales arrive, we’ve seen an increase in business from international buyers which has kept sales figures relatively steady for the past few months. The strength of many foreign currencies and the arrival of spring in the Southern hemisphere have resulted in an increase in foreign clients looking to purchase boats for export from the United States.
International Sales
Sept. 2010 - Dec. 2010
Sept. 2010 - Dec. 2010
Since September 1, we’ve seen nearly 70% of boats sold bound for other countries. Canada and Australia have been the two largest contributors, but we’ve also done business with clients from Russia, Germany, Sweden, Saudi Arabia, and the British Virgin Islands.
For many sellers, these are important considerations. As sales slow down in the US, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a bad time to put your boat on the market. It is important, however, that you choose a broker that caters to the needs of international clients and has the experience necessary to facilitate a smooth transaction for a buyer looking to ship a boat overseas.
