Real-time customization using virtual reality (VR) for yachts has several advantages: 1) It can shorten the sales cycle by eliminating tedious back-and-forth processes between manufacturers and customers by allowing clients to customize options like colors and materials in real-time; 2) It can increase customer retention by providing an immersive customization experience that gives clients a sense of ownership over their creation; 3) It can lower costs by collecting data on customer preferences to optimize showcased yachts and reduce the number of boats needed at exhibitions.
