The primary CTA 'READ MORE' appears twice with identical styling and placement, creating redundancy; differentiate the second CTA with context-specific text like 'Explore the 2024 Design Festival' to better guide user intent and reduce decision fatigue. • The brokerage news section lacks visual hierarchy, adding thumbnail images or broker logos next to each listing would increase scanability and emotional connection, making high-value yachts like 'Daddy’s Dream' feel more tangible and urgent to potential buyers.
