This philosophy is most evident within her main saloon, where floor-to-ceiling windows and an open-plan arrangement place the sea at the centre of the onboard experience.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397170/image/large-e99cd323156182c88f6b2afeba609cb3.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397170"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397172/image/large-6e383fb85357aabdfd4ca3322b4ee657.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397172">Moreover, her interiors embrace a calm and contemporary approach, featuring a neutral palette intended to complement, rather than compete with, the surrounding scenery.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/397171/image/large-62a5e66c76c69c3b4b42d76f20dd4f28.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/397171">Moving outside, the cockpit’s raised seating descends towards the aft swim platform, creating a seamless connection to the water. This sense of space is further enhanced by drop-down side wings that broaden the deck.

In an era defined by lockdowns and social distancing, sales reports ran amok across the board. Traditional sale trajectories for most sectors have been thrown off course – but not so much for the yachting industry. Champagne has been flowing across the whole sector as the combined new and used yacht sales are on course to exceed the 1,100 mark, according to SuperYacht Times’ in-house intelligence system, <a href="https://superyachttimes.ac-page.com/homepage" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">SYT iQ</a>. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/191444/image/large-7bcd74f2c377e7db1304a1e547c47eac.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/191444">To date, 1,072 used and new yachts in the 24-metres and above category have been sold. As we still have a few weeks left of the year, it’s highly likely the scales will be tipped to exceed the 1,100 mark. 334 yachts in the 24-metres and above category were sold new, while the remaining 738 yachts were sold used.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/109216/image/large-6852f0e552d06fb05d1c01fbd8d86af0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/109216">The big driver of sales was the 24-30-metre category, with 420 yachts of this size sold this year. Interestingly, a lot of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54061" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Market: Who is driving the post-pandemic boom?

Second, we are seeing that clients who would normally charter yachts are making the jump to ownership. We spoke to some clients, who want to treat their hard work by buying a new yacht to travel the world. They want some more fun instead of only focussing on work. Finally, there has been a wave of people entering the market saying, ‘now is a great time to buy a boat’.”<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9lSGefi6z7w?&amp;wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe> Brokers have confirmed this too, with some reporting up to 20 percent of sales coming from buyers looking to purchase their first time. This influx of new people into the industry has also potentially <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54008" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht brokerage & bitcoin: Is the trend here to stay? (2021-11-03 16:45:00 +0100)">spurred a change of buying habits</a>.&nbsp;“A lot of new money has been made during the pandemic, especially in the tech sector,” de Waard said. “This has led to a lot of younger people looking to enjoy their hard-earned cash in new ways. It’s usual for first-time buyers to look at smaller yachts, over time they often look to upgrade and go bigger. But there has also been a growing interest in larger yachts for these new owners. This is really great for our market because these new owners will probably buy a lot more yachts throughout their lifetimes and get their friends and business partners involved as well.”<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aoUxGbhjO4o?&amp;wmode=opaque" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" class="fr-draggable"></iframe> Over the past few years yacht sales have been on a pretty steady trajectory. In 2018, 788 yachts in the above 24-metre category were sold. The sales figures for 2019 was about the same, with 771 in the same category sold. There was then an uptick in 2020, with sales reaching the 821 mark. This year though, sales have boomed and vastly exceeded expectations.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/212452/image/large-729a1f17a54798e861ad1ed45a829553.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/212452"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/54008" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Superyacht brokerage & bitcoin: Is the trend here to stay? (2021-11-03 16:45:00 +0100)">Is the sales boom sustainable?</a> – is the question at the back of a lot of our minds. “Well, I’m not too sure yet,” de Waard previously responded. “I’m very optimistic and I definitely think yachts will keep selling, but there needs to be the product as well; there needs to be yachts for sale. And if we look at the number of new yachts coming on the market, it is less than the same time last year."
