The Latest News from Premiere Yachts – February 2018

Premiere Yachts is excited to announce the Seattle arrival of Regency P6508. It was offloaded from the transport ship in the middle of a windstorm on Saturday January 27th. With the help of a capable 7-man crew from Pacific Coast Yacht Services, we prepared this beautiful yacht and moved it to the Seattle Boat Show for its debut on Tuesday January 30th. The P65 garnered rave reviews from its new owners, from potential clients seeing the yacht for the first time, and from fellow yacht dealers at the show. If you missed seeing this exceptional yacht, it will be at the Premiere Yachts docks through April. Stop by and see why we believe Regency Yachts are THE five-star cruising yacht. You can also see a photo album of the arrival and debut on our Facebook Page.

We were joined at the Seattle Boat Show for the debut of P6508 by fellow Regency dealers from California, Canada, Florida and New York. It was wonderful to connect and collaborate with individuals with more than 100 years of combined yacht building/marketing experience to see if we could find ways to make our Regency P series even better. We want to thank Dan Sammis from Seattle Yachts in Florida, Tim Cleal from Canadian Yacht & Ship Brokers, John Baier from Oceanic Yacht Sales’ New York-Hampton office, and Rick Peterson from Oceanic’s Sausalito, CA office for investing their time and working together to create a strong network that our clients can count on for service, no matter where they boat in the US or Canada.

The next boat show on the horizon for us is the new Anacortes Boat & Yacht Show in Anacortes, Washington, May 17th-20th. This will be an exciting new venue and the Show will be taking place throughout many marinas and dry-dock boat sales facilities in Anacortes. If you’re planning to attend the Show for a couple of days, it’s not too early book your hotel or make your marina reservations. Regency P6508 will be there as well and you can schedule an exclusive tour with your dealer. We hope to see you on the docks!

It may be February, and there’s still a chill in the air, but Spring is just around the corner. The Spring Equinox is March 20th, and we spring forward with the beginning of Daylight Saving Time on March 11th. We are all looking forward to the extra hour of daylight so that we can do more after work cruising! After that comes the Opening Day of boating on May 5th. If you’re waiting until then to acquire your next yacht, it might be too late! We have had more interest and activity around both new and brokerage yachts so far this year than in the beginning of the last five years. Also, there seem to be fewer late model brokerage boats on the market this year, so it’s time to get in touch with one of our sales professionals: Marvin, Shelly, Kristen, or Martin. They are ready to assist you in acquiring a yacht that fits your cruising lifestyle.

One of our late model brokerage yachts we’d like to draw your attention to is Fortunate Son, a 2005 54’ West Bay SonShip Pilothouse that has been beautifully and thoughtfully maintained by caring owners. This sought-after model is an exceptional find and shows almost new. Fortunate Son offers two spacious staterooms with queen island beds and ensuite heads and separate entrances.
