The client was interested in a 30-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/112" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Custom Line Spa (Company)">Custom Line</a> and wanted to meet in Monaco to ‘thrash’ out the details.I took my seat on the flight on the day in question, when over the tannoy system an announcement was made for Mr Newton-Woof. I sheepishly raised my hand, when I was informed that I was on the right flight but on the wrong day.&nbsp;I transferred to City Airport and arrived in Monaco just in time to meet the entire party walking out. At which point I introduced myself to everyone and the buyer said, as he was shaking my hand, “How very nice of you to turn up”. At which point he turned around and walked off! His family office and I continued the meeting and signed the order the following week. I was sure I lost years off my life that day.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/197526/image/large-a961547166a76fa8fb7c12fab07fa03d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/197526">How do you see the rest of 2021 playing out in terms of yacht sales and charter, with many brokers complaining about lack of inventory?It is astonishing that 2020 and 2021 have seen such a surge in sales activity throughout the industry. As new boat production levels never quite recovered to pre-financial crisis levels, there has been a short supply of young products in the marketplace over the last 10 years. Added to a huge uptick in sales activity, there is inevitably a supply / demand challenge. We, as are most of our competitors, are seeing new orders being secured well into 2023, which in my 30+ year experience has never happened in the sub-35m sector. The challenge the industry now faces, which is going to become a global phenomenon, is inflation and interest rate raises. This will encourage existing boat owners to put their boats back on the market, possibly at more than they paid for them, which will increase supply in the pre-owned market at a time when demand may be easing.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/191292/image/large-ae855d361595f18dc8954803ab8d8577.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/191292">In your opinion, are there any burgeoning markets in the superyacht industry, and how do you think the market is going to change in the coming years?&nbsp;Without a doubt the environment will play a major part in purchases over the next decade. This may take the form of changes in propulsion to hybrid, electric, solar and hydrogen and in the physical materials used to reduce weight, through to underwater coatings to prevent fouling build-up and increase through-water efficiency.The refit market will invariably benefit from retrofitting more fuel efficient engines and power plants, as has been seen from the speed of development with gyroscopic stabilisation systems.&nbsp;Another observation I have made is the traction and development of the fractional yacht ownership program. The next generation of younger buyers means manufacturers and retailers will need to look closely at their business models to ensure that those new buyers are not alienated.&nbsp;
