Kitson Yachts Highlights 2022
20.12.22
2022 saw the international travel industry return to pre-pandemic activity, with the yachting industry experiencing one of its busiest years on record. Although the year started on a positive note, the breakout of conflict in Ukraine at the end of February resulted in the seizure of multiple Russian-owned superyachts across the world. This, however, allowed an increase in demand from many of our US clients, who – encouraged by the strength of the dollar – dominated the sales and charter market this year.
To celebrate the end of another great year at Kitson Yachts, here are our top highlights:
