After introducing you to our Special Used & Bargains 2025, with many useful tips for boat buyers-we are telling you about the services and bargains offered by the best operators with which to buy a second-hand boat. Whether it is used, or new on ready delivery. Today we are telling you about Settemari Yacht‘s “Zero Miles” boats. A formula that allows you to buy the new boat while saving money.
Get your new boat “Zero Mileage” with Settemari Yacht
The post Covid boating market has certainly disoriented the potential buyer of new boats. Demand exceeded the shipyards’ production capacity, and as a result prices increased by up to 30 to 35 percent and the wait for delivery reached two years in some cases.
In 2024 this bubble burst and the market came to an abrupt halt. Today the buyer of new boats finds himself with three opportunities. First choice: order a boat on paper whose production has yet to begin. Delivery will be for the 2026 season and the usual market discounts will apply. Second possibility: in cooperation with The Dealer you choose a boat that is already in production or even finished, but is unsold and as they say lying on the yard’s yard. In this case delivery may perhaps be in time for the 2025 season and the yard can often offer a discount advantage. Then there is the third possibility we want to tell you about.
Buy a stock boat from a dealer: so-called ZERO MILES. These are for all intents and purposes new boats that at most have been used for sea trials. You have the advantage of touching the boat hands-on without suffering the randomness associated with the construction and delivery phase.
Many accessories and customizations can still be requested, delivery is almost immediate, and most importantly, the price offered is very competitive.
To accompany this article, Settemari Yacht of La Spezia-an official Beneteau dealer-offers two boats with these characteristics.
