Big Boats and Serious Buyers at The Superyacht Show 2018
Spring has taken on a decidedly Spanish flavour in the yachting industry not only are yacht charters in Spain increasing in popularity but the country is becoming a veritable yachting hub; with Barcelona and the Balearics hosting three yacht sales and charter shows almost back to back over a busy few weeks in late April and early May.
Along with long-established events such as the MYBA Charter Show and the Palma Superyacht Show, this year was particularly exciting as it marked the premiere of The Superyacht Show, hosted by LYBRA (the Large Yacht Broker's Association), an association that Fraser, as the world's leading luxury brokerage, is a proud member of.
After a whirlwind May, the team at Fraser has finally come back down to earth with a chance to reflect on and review The Superyacht Show an event which, in going back to basics, has disrupted the traditional yacht show format.
Who is LYBRA? The Large Yacht Broker's Association, commonly referred to as LYBRA, is an association for superyacht brokerage companies who have yachts with an LOA greater than 30m in their Central Agency fleet. By offering the world's most influential yacht brokerages, such as Fraser, a platform to come together to discuss issues of current and future concern for everyone in the yachting industry, LYBRA aims to champion positive change and improvements in yachting around the globe.

We're already looking forward to next year's edition of The Superyacht Show and hope to see you there! For more information, contact a yacht sales broker at Fraser today.
