Rightboat.com, the alternative solution to buying and selling boats online, has seen a wave of brokers switching their online advertising to the platform in 2024.

Led by a team of industry veterans and ex-yacht brokers, Rightboat challenges the digital boat sales marketplace by providing not only an extremely cost-effective advertising solution but also using many years of experience in the sector to act as a marketing partner to each of its clients, with highly targeted strategies to deliver leads.

Originally conceived by 12 UK-based brokers, Rightboat's new team is led by a well-known and super-experienced team of industry specialists, renowned for transforming small boating marketplaces into dominant industry players.

The extensively networked team have been making a splash in the boating marketplace with a broker-first approach offering fair pricing alongside an ever-growing suite of state of the art technology.

Key business highlights include:

  • Global online audience has increased five-fold in 12 months, currently reaches over 500,000 visitors per month - and continues to increase at a steady pace.
  • Trade customer base has grown by 1,000% - from 30 to 330 - across 14 countries in the same period
  • Lead generation already delivers over 3,000 email leads each month
  • The innovative, bespoke inventory management software Rightboat:HUB is used by the majority of trade customers to manage their online sales activities - from AI powered boat details to listings enhancements to lead management

Rightboat understands the challenges faced by brokers and boat buyers worldwide and takes great pride in offering a genuine and fair alternative to the monopoly that has dominated the space for years, with no hidden charges or undue price leverages.

There has been substantial investment in advertising listings to suitable and relevant buyers through a multitude of online marketing channels, alongside the development of a unique listing software, the Rightboat:HUB, which streamlines the boat selling process for brokers with user-friendly features.
