Preowned boats will get their own marketplace during next month’s boat shows in Southampton.
Why Boats’ Used Boat Show at Deacons in Bursledon on the Hamble will run from 11-20 September concurrently with Boats 2020, the ‘alternative’ event replacing this year’s Southampton International Boat Show, not to mention The Ocean Village Boat Show at MLD Marinas.
Open daily from 10am to 6pm, the Used Boat Show will showcase the range of used boats to visitors while maintaining all practical precautions against coronavirus, ensuring safety for show staff, sellers and potential buyers alike.
“It’s a great time for anyone who is looking to sell their boat,” says Why Boats director Ian Watkins. “The market is really buoyant and currently there is a real demand for used boats, both power and sail.
“Listing your boat for the show is very simple, just give us a call and we’ll do the rest.”
For a £150 listing fee, sellers will get a discount on commission (5% plus VAT) as well as a free lift, scrub and block off, one-month free storage ashore and 25% off storage ashore until 31 December.
