Welcome the 2025 Berthon Market Report.
An annual publication that analyses the international yacht market in which we work every day. The Berthon Sales Team operates out of its HQ in the UK, and has sales offices in Sweden, Spain, and the USA, along with a Service and Refit operation in Mallorca, Spain. All parts of theirTeam share their unique perspectives on the current market, the trends they saw in 2024, and what lies ahead for 2025.
Whether you're considering selling your yacht or embarking on a purchase, or are just interested to know what is happening in the yachting business, their in-depth analyses are well worth reading.
The theme for this year’s Market Report is Scrabble, with a ‘Double Points Score’ feature that spotlights the events, people and yachts that Berthon think were most inspirational, innovative and very cool, in 2024.
A number of leading industry experts have contributed. As well as our regular update on VAT from PKF Francis Clark, Sarah Allen from Penningtons explains the importance of due diligence requirements in today’s market. RYA CEO Sarah Sutcliffe and Chair Sir Micheal Arthur write about the RYA’s initiatives to inspire the next generation of sailors, and there is also a fascinating article about the Orca’s found off the North Atlantic Iberian peninsula penned by Anna Moscrop from Marine Conservation Research.
Beyond market trends, Berthon covers the realities of overseas yacht purchases and the intricacies of yacht shopping on the world wide web. Of course, no Berthon Market Report would be complete without The Berthon Forecast, where they attempt to predict what 2025 will bring.
Now fully digital, the Flight Deck Reports seamlessly connect to
