Boat and equipment sales rise at Finland’s Uiva Flytande show
Uiva Flytande drew over 10,000 visitors to Helsinki, with strong sales for Axopar, Buster and Saxdor signalling a market recovery.
The new brokerage sales centre marks the ninth location nationwide and second in Wales for boatpoint. The expansion enhances boatpoint’s service reach across the Bristol Channel through collaboration with its established Portishead office.
Located in Cardiff Bay, the new operation integrates with existing marina services to offer a full suite of support for boat owners. Penarth Marina berth holders and visiting boaters can now access brokerage via boatpoint, alongside boatcare maintenance and berthing services, providing boat sales in Wales.
Marina Manager Stuart Jones said: “Welcoming boatpoint to Penarth Marina ensures that everything boaters need is available in one location. We look forward to supporting both new and existing boaters with expert advice and local service.”
Specialising in quality used boats, boatpoint’s brokers offer market valuations and guidance on legal requirements for sellers. Buyers can also access exclusive benefits through boatfolk, including berthing discounts across the company’s 11 UK marinas and a national cruising pass providing up to 300 free nights across the network.
This development supports boatfolk’s strategy to offer a modern, inclusive marina experience, with integrated services to simplify boat ownership.
Boat viewings are now available at Penarth Marina. To book, visit www.boatpoint.co.uk. For more information about boatfolk, visit www.boatfolk.co.uk.
