Arbitrage Buying.
There’s an entire model of wholesale buying in the yachting industry where companies buy trades or distressed sales at 20-30% below market value and then re-sell the vessels. Our company identifies the opportunities but pushes the vessels to interested clients while still taking the standard 5-10%.
Recent Arbritrage Opportunities
2016 VanDutch 55
Acquired by Chris MortimerThis VanDutch 55 was being traded by the owner for a brand new italian motor yacht. The dealer knows they have to take it to sell their new boat, but they don’t want to allocate time, resources and space to sell a boat they don’t normally sell. We are introduced as a third party to buy the vessel under market value for our client or for ourselves.
