A new show, London Luxury Afloat, will take place in the heart of London at St. Katherine Docks and will feature a range of luxury yachts and superyachts
THE coronavirus pandemic has fuelled a surge in people opting to live on water. Waterlodge, a supplier which has a number of floating homes in Sussex, including at Brighton Marina, said its sales were up by 50 per cent in October compared with last year, despite the business being closed for two months at the height of lockdown. Sales inquiries increased by just over 100 per cent in 2020, while the number of would-be buyers browsing its website was up by 102 per cent. Sara Shepherd decided to buy a floating home which would be permanently moored in Littlehampton Marina. The 54-year-old charity worker said she “fell in love” with the three-bedroom water home, which is 50 sqm.
