The Port Napoléon Used Boat Show features power and sail boats from seven to 25 metres. Qualified staff at the event can advise on the right boat for the buyers’ requirements as well as give expert advice and information on all brokerage issues, registration, valeting, servicing, tuition, winterisation services, berthing and maintenance.

Ancasta’s Port Napoléon office is based in the heart of the Mediterranean at the well-developed marina at Port Saint Louis in the estuary of the Rhône. The marina offers the ideal starting point to visit the Cote d'Azur, Corsica, Balearics, Cote d' Amethyste, Cote Vermeille, Spain or to navigate the Rhone.

Port Napoléon’s Ancasta Office is one of the few sites in the Mediterranean that can still offer dry storage space, enabling people to work on their boats throughout the year.
