On Thursday 12th November 2026 Peter Norris, Chairman of the Medway Swale Boating Association, recently retired President of the Yacht Brokers, Designers and Surveyors Association (YBDSA), and owner of Network Yacht Brokers Kent, will provide an insight into the current UK boating market and discuss the factors influencing both buyers and sellers.

With the boating market continuing to evolve, many owners are asking whether now is the right time to sell, how values are holding up, and what they can do to achieve the best possible price. Drawing on over 30 years of brokerage experience, Peter will explain whether now is a good time to buy or sell, how to prepare a boat for market, and the practical steps owners can take to maximise value and minimise the risk of price renegotiations following a survey. The presentation will also cover common pitfalls in the sales process and offer guidance on ensuring a smooth and successful transaction.

Whether you are considering selling in the near future or simply interested in understanding current market trends, this informative presentation will provide valuable advice for all boat owners.
