Fraser Exhibits the Largest FLIBS Yacht Line Up in History
The world’s leading boat show, the 2023 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show displayed over $4 billion worth of yachts and nautical merchandise.
The American yacht market is still showing strength, with a continued emphasis on both the seller’s and buyer’s side. With an increased presence at the show due to high demand, Fraser was proud to display a line up of over 16 yachts for sale and for charter, at a combined value of over $150 million.
Some of the yachts Fraser exhibited included: 149’ Palmer Johnson FOUR JACKS, 143’ Benetti ALEGRIA, 142’ Richmond CALLIOPE, and many other vessels, the full list of which can be seen here.
MIA ELISE II (197’ Trinity) completed a transatlantic crossing in order to attend FLIBS 2023 after exhibiting at MYS 2023 in September. This marked her first visit to the U.S. since being introduced to the global sales market. MIA ELISE II has since been sold within two weeks after FLIBS indicating her popularity amongst U.S. buyers.
