If 1% of the boats were sold
during a month - the theoretic sales time would then be 100
months or 8 years.
2% would be
50 months or four years.
But since 2006 the monthly YW-sales have been down to under 1 %.
Indeed a buyers market where the sellers patience and the best possible individual
presentation of a
yacht is essential..!
