According to 6Wresearch, the Qatar Boat Market size is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period of 2025-2031. Qatar has been investing and enhancing its marine infrastructure over the years, with the aim of hosting international sailing events. Additionally, the government has liberalized several regulations, which has led to growth in boat tours and water activities. The increasing popularity of water sports such as jet skiing, wakeboarding, and surfing has also led to this growth. Furthermore, the rise of the high-net-worth individuals has stimulated the yacht market demand across the whole country. Moreover, the market has been witnessing several trends. One of the most significant trends is customers' demand for yachts and boats designed with advanced technology features. Another trend in the boat market is the rising number of boat rental services, particularly during the summer season.
Additionally, the trend for eco-friendly yachts and boats that are environmentally sustainable has risen as consumers recognize the need to protect the oceans, which will have a positive impact on the marine industry. Despite this, the high cost of boat ownership, maintenance, repair, and insurance, which is high in comparison to other Gulf countries hinders the market development. Nevertheless, the Qatar boat industry presents many opportunities, including the need for more and larger marinas to accommodate increasing numbers of tourists and boats. Moreover, the rising demand for boat and yacht repair and maintenance services, coupled with the country's relatively high disposable income, presents opportunities for growth.
The government policies introduced in Qatar have had a significant impact on the Qatar Boat Market Growth. One of the policies introduced by the government to boost the sector is the 100% ownership for foreign investors in the boat market. This has encouraged foreign investors to invest in the sector and has led to an increase in the number of boats in the country. Additionally, the government passed a law that enables boat owners to import their boats into Qatar without paying taxes. This has made it more affordable for individuals to own boats. The government also provides subsidies and incentives for local boat manufacturers and has established partnerships with international boat manufacturers.
The Qatar boat industry has attracted various key players, such as Gulf Crafts, Al Shaali Marine, and Al Koot Insurance and Reinsurance Company. Gulf Crafts is the major yacht and boat manufacturer in the country. Al Koot Insurance and Reinsurance Company offer marine insurance for private yachts and boats while Al Shaali Marine focusses in manufacturing boats for commercial purposes.
The Qatar boat market is anticipated to grow during the forecast period. The increase in marine tourism in the country, the growth of the boating industry, and the introduction of innovative boats are some of the factors responsible for the Qatar Boat Market Growth. Additionally, the country is gearing up to host two major international sports events - the FIFA World Cup 2022 and the World Aquatic Championships 2023. These events are expected to attract more tourists to the country, which will further boost the boat market. The future of the Qatar boat market looks promising. The government is taking steps to develop the infrastructure and enhance the competitiveness of the industry. This includes the development of port facilities, marinas, and boatyards.
According to Suryakant, Senior Research Analyst, 6Wresearch, the outboard boats, which are powered by an engine mounted outside the boat, is the largest segment and expected to lead the Qatar Boat Market Share in the future years. On the other hand, the inboard boat segment, which uses an engine inside the boat, is projected to grow rapidly due to its higher power and better fuel efficiency, making it popular among boating enthusiasts with larger boats.
In terms of Power, the former segment is expected to hold the dominant position in the market. However, the sail-propelled boats segment is growing at a steady rate due to its increasing popularity with eco-friendly enthusiasts who prefer to harness the power of the wind.
