5. CHARTERING CHARGES AHEAD (continued)
Since 2018, the number of first-time charter customers continued to surge until the COVID-19 outbreak. Crewed yacht charters were steadily gaining popularity around the globe, particularly outside the usual yachting crowds.
Long term, even with the slowdown, this trend is projected to continue. And the good news is, there are already signs of life as fall and the holidays approach. A yacht charter just might be one of the safest holiday celebrations this year.
Additionally, we’ll see continued interest in seeking out new charter destinations around the world. The changing demographics of high-net-worth individuals brings requests for more remote and exotic locations other than just the usual Mediterranean or the Caribbean.
The next generation of charterers are requesting exploration yachting to places such as Antarctica, Scandinavia, Australia, or Southeast Asia. This means we’ll see more explorer-style yachts, as they’re built to travel the globe in almost any kind of weather. And they typically have large interiors with room for lots of fun toys.
As we navigate the currents of 2020, we know there are better, brighter days just over the horizon. HMY is your trusted partner and resource, always here to help. Contact us today to set up a sea trial, plan a charter trip, or start the hunt for your next perfect yacht.
