I had trip to Norfolk Yacht Agency today to Survey yet another Hampton Safari.
This years boat sales on the Broads has been remarkable considering the state of the economy. Strangely I feel that the recession has had a part to play in this significant increase in business. For years we have been told how bad things are and how much worse they are going to get, but with the ridiculously low interest rates on savings it doesn't surprise me that boat sales have been on the increase.
When we travel abroad our pound buys us so much less than ever before and as a result, many of us are looking at ways of getting back that "feel good" factor by buying the boat we have dreamed of, feeling secure that in these current economic times a boat can often be an investment opportunity! There’s almost a ‘Life’s to Short’ attitude with many of my clients, and many of the older generation are left wondering why they should leave their savings in a bank account doing very little!
Speaking to many of my customers…. they word is they are no longer being put off by the "doom and gloom" brigade…. It could be a very good 2013!
Please type in Hampton in the search box and check out all the boats I have Surveyed over the last 2 years, and lots of comments on what to look for when buying.
