Ireland was represented by Hugh Mockler of Crosshaven Boatyard (Network Yacht Brokers Cork) in Cork and Ronan Beirne of Leinster Boats (Network Yacht Brokers Dublin) at the first “post covid” meeting of Network Yacht Brokers took place in Bristol in July.

Network Yacht Brokers is a co-op of independent European yacht brokers who share industry information, marketing, legal, and IT listing resources that enable each office to provide the best professional-client yacht brokering services backed by international expertise and experience.

Thirteen brokers from 19 offices in Europe and the United Kingdom attended, with a further four offices attending by Zoom. 

Group Chairman Ray Flowers of Blackrock Yachting in Chichester updated the members on the latest development and enhancements with the group IT platform, which is the yacht brokerage management software tool used by each office and unique to the Network Yacht Brokers group. Update on the latest developments with the multiple boat selling platforms utilised by Network Yacht Brokers is part of the group's USP of providing the widest possible marketing reach internationally. More exposure and more inquiries result in more sales for our clients.
