While at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Superyachts.com spoke with Denison Yacht Sales President and Founder Bob Denison about the future of yacht sales and yacht charters in America.
“America, in my opinion, is the strongest market globally,” explains Bob. “Overall it’s been really good on the sales side and the charter side, we’re seeing a lot more confidence, not only consumer confidence but the confidence which is attached to a crazy election cycle which is coming to an end.”
Economic indicators were all pointing to positive days before the election, however even with the current shift in stock market value thanks to an opinion splitting Presidential appointment, Bob Denison was optimistic before the change.
“There’s been a lot of people elected that we were alarmed that if they were ever elected, we were all going to be out on the streets with bowls in our hands begging for food, and that hasn’t happened.
That’s not only due to the strength of a free market economy and the guts of what makes America happen […] No matter who’s elected, America is going to remain a great economy and a great place to go buy boats.”
