The Global Leisure Boat Market size is expected to reach $61.7 billion by 2030, rising at a market growth of 5.2% CAGR during the forecast period.

Yacht offers a cozy and luxurious setting for people and families to enjoy holidays, weekend getaways, or day outings. Therefore, the yacht segment acquired $16,795.3 million revenue in 2022. Two elements that have significantly increased the popularity of recreational boating are the growing adult fascination with boating and the rising levels of disposable money. Furthermore, customers are choosing boats that are equipped with IoT (Internet of Things) technologies more frequently. As a result, it can enhance the connectivity of boat entertainment systems, which is crucial for recreational vehicles.

A yacht operator can remotely monitor battery levels, potential leaks or water entering the boat using water detectors and bilge alarms, potential incursions, and smoke alarms using these IoT systems. The market will rise in the next years due to more technological advancements making boats safer against damage and accidents. Some of the factors impacting the market are Expanding tourism sector raising the demand, Significant growth prospects to be opened up in untapped marketplace due to online availability, and Leisure boats' effect on the environment.

The market has expanded significantly, especially considering the booming tourism sector. The market has demonstrated tremendous potential over the previous ten years, with particular product categories like pontoons, cruises, and water sports boats recording significant sales growth. Sales of second-hand boats and personal watercraft have also surged, giving consumers and businesses that lease seasonal equipment an opportunity to offer memorable vacations. The online market for boat development has significantly changed how leisure boats are sold. Before now, boat manufacturers mainly sold their products at boat fairs and dealerships, restricting their reach to particular geographic areas. The global expansion of online boat sales has given manufacturers access to new markets. As a result, the market is expected to develop due to the increase in demand for pontoons and water sports boats and demand for boats on online marketplaces.

However, boating-related activities, including inappropriate and improper fueling, organizing, and repair, as well as irresponsible maintenance, provide environmental dangers by deteriorating water quality and harming animals & marine habitats. Releases of oil and fuel can harm marine ecosystems, affect marine life, and deteriorate water quality. Pollution standards and limitations severely restrict worldwide demand for leisure boats. The market must comply with these standards as the emphasis on sustainability and environmental conservation grows to ensure long-term growth and reduce environmental impact.

Product Outlook

Based on product, the market is classified into motorized, and non-motorized. The non-motorized segment recorded a remarkable revenue share in the market in 2022. Non-motorized leisure boats are gaining popularity as environmental conservation concerns increase because of their low ecological impact. These boats don't require fuel-powered engines, which reduce noise and carbon dioxide emissions, allowing users to enjoy along with not effecting the environment.

Motorized Outlook

Under the motorized type, the market is further segmented into personal watercraft, outboard boats, yacht, and others. In 2022, the yacht segment registered the highest revenue share in the market.

Jet skis, water skis, wakeboards, paddleboards, snorkeling, and diving equipment may all fall under this.

Type Outlook

On the basis of type, the market is segmented into new leisure boat and used leisure boat. In 2022, the used leisure boat segment dominated the market with the maximum revenue share. This is supported by the fact that a second-hand boat may be acquired very fast, eliminating the need for a longer delivery timetable. These are usually less expensive since the value has declined due to prior ownership and usage. The fact that old boats can sometimes remain in good condition and available for purchase encourages consumers to choose them.
