Data distribution service Boatstream has struck a deal with some of Europe’s key marine sales websites, giving brokers and buyers greater access to the European market.

One new addition is yachtworld.com, which powers the boat brokerage section on ybw.com and IPC Media’s other marine websites.

Other online brokers joining the scheme come from Italy, France, Sweden, Denmark, Holland and Spain, and will all contribute boatstream’s portfolio.

The company’s founder Sue Milne says: “With the inclusion of these top media sites in the Boatstream portfolio, the broker community will gain access to the European marketplace through a single gateway.”

Plans are underway to include other portals as the website expands.
