Fraser revealed that the total sales value of pre-owned 24m-plus yachts from January-July 2026 totalled US$4.5 billion / €3.9 billion, representing an 18 per cent increase compared to the same period last year.

The rise in value arose despite a slightly lower transaction volume, with 381 yachts sold from January-July 2026 compared with 398 in the same period last year, a 4 per cent decrease. Overall, the volume of sales in 2026 to date remained broadly in line with recent years, although below the post-pandemic peak in 2021 and 2022.

Anders Kurtén, Fraser’s CEO, was encouraged by the figures as the brokerage house prepared to stage a significant presence in and around the Monaco Yacht Show (September 23-26) before turning their attention to the US for the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (October 28-November 1).

“As we move into the autumn show season, the market for pre-owned 24m-plus yachts remains healthy. Currently, there is a strong inventory of yachts for buyers to discover, with over 2,100 actively for sale,” Kurtén said.

“On behalf of our clients, Fraser is proud to be bringing over 25 exceptional yachts to the Monaco area for this year’s show, including three within Port Hercule. As ever, the shows – Monaco and FLIBS in particular – represent the opportunity to step aboard multiple yachts in a short timeframe, compare options and make informed decisions with direct access to expert guidance.”
