Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Luxury Yacht Market Growth
In 2020, the COVID-19 outbreak restrained the tourism sector. Governments worldwide imposed strict measures to combat the spread of SARS-CoV-2. They put restrictions on transport in Q1 and Q2 of 2020, which suspended most of the operations in the sector and reduced revenue generation. People were forced to stay at home because of nationwide lockdowns and international travel bans, which significantly hampered the tourism industry. Also, due to the shutdown of the manufacturing plants and disruption in supply chains globally, the luxury yacht market was hampered during the pandemic. However, post-lockdown in Q3 of 2020, the demand for luxury yachts increased in the market. After a long stay at home, people were looking for freedom and escape, which raised the demand for luxury yachts. Also, the ability to transport a holiday home to different locations is appealing to customers, which is further boosting the demand for luxury yachts. According to Boat International’s Global Order Book, more than 1,200 superyachts were slated to be built in 2021, which was a rise of 25% from 2020. Also, it is seen that the shipyard order books are full till 2025, which means that the clients are even ready to pay extra to take over someone else’s slot for early delivery of the yacht. In addition, in March 2022, Benetti announced that they had received a record number of orders of luxury yachts from various wealthy customers. These customers are mostly millennials and Gen Zs, who are looking for safer and more open yet intimate spaces on the yacht, plus more fun and entertainment. Thus, all the above factors are raising the demand for luxury yachts post-lockdown, further fueling the market's growth.
