2023 will be remembered as a challenging year in many respects. General uncertainty, significant changes in interest rates and declining purchasing power were just some of the challenges \u2013 and the list could go on.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Despite all this, Blue Ocean Oy Ab managed to maintain a good level of boat sales, with international sales and sailing boats playing a particularly important role. It was especially encouraging that despite the Swedish market coming to an almost complete standstill, sales to the other Nordic countries and elsewhere in Europe remained at a healthy level. Our total sales exceeded those of 2022 by a few boats, reversing the decline that followed the record sales of the pandemic years and putting us back on a growth path. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the beginning of the new year, we have already seen some signs of renewed activity in the market, and we are looking forward to the Vene 24 B\u00e5t Boat Show in February. Demand for sailing boats has remained at a good level throughout, and we are now also seeing signs of recovery in demand for motorboats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Vene 24 B\u00e5t Boat Show will be held at Messukeskus Helsinki Expo and Convention Centre from 9 to 18 February 2024, and we will be there throughout the show at stand 7h130. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Come and talk to us about anything related to buying or selling a boat \u2013 we are happy to help! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have made good use of the somewhat quieter period by further improving our processes and building completely new, modern websites designed to serve our customers better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We do everything we can to ensure that every transaction proceeds as smoothly and correctly as possible, including all the necessary documentation. We also continue to invest extensively in marketing the boats entrusted to us for sale, ensuring that potential buyers can find and reach us as easily and effectively as possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Best boating regards, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
