In June, bookings were up by 35% compared to 2022, and in July the phenomenon even accelerated to +45%, with August continuing the same trend.

 

The democratization of yacht charter continues unabated, and the desire for adventure on the seas is still palpable. While each year wipes out the previous ones with indecent rates, Click&Boat will have another good year in 2023, perhaps even a record one.

"June was a record month for both new and repeat customers. All the figures are in the green, and we even have requests for 2024," explained Esteban Naegel, Click&Boat's Sales Manager. 

We now know a little more about the order of magnitude of this record June and summer. 

Despite capricious weather in the 4 corners of France and an inflationary context, bookings were up by +35% compared to June 2022, then by 45% in July. 

 

Click&Boat: France a favorite with the French.

August continued the same trend. France, particularly popular with French yachtsmen (75%), found itself in competition with neighboring countries.  More French yachtsmen set sail from Italy (+31%), Greece (+21.35%) and Spain (+19%) than last year. Spain, with the Balearic Islands in the lead, is the top international destination for French yachtsmen.

Click&Boat has worked closely with its partners to maintain an appropriate offer and avoid price hikes, not only by offering a wider range of boats, but also by working on prices to suit all budgets and tastes.

Launched in 2014 by Edouard Gorioux and Jeremy Bismuth, Click & Boat started as the Airbnb for boats, a pure digital peer-to-peer actor, and now lists boats from traditional brokerages and professional renters, as well for a fleet in excess of 35,000 yachts and bareboats. The company has been expanding its core market by addressing additional services such as week-long sailing cruises and luxury rentals, as well as offering travel agency related services. The founders’ vision for Click & Boat remains unchanged: becoming the reference actor in the boat rental market as a whole, and their energy to continue disrupting this sector is limitless.
