153: BOAT Briefing: a dramatic rescue in the Caribbean, the trailer park superyacht and the auction of Alfa Nero

In this week's episode of BOAT Briefing, Sophia previews an upcoming trip to Belize while Stewart looks ahead to the May issues of BOAT International and BOAT Ineternational US Edition. The team also digs into the harrowing details of 37-metre sailing yacht Genevieve's rescue of 16 people in a major search and rescue operation in the Caribbean. As well as bringing you the story, we also hear some words of wisdom from Genevieve's captain, Thomas Auckland. Sophia's brokerage pick is the 62-metre Feadship Sea Owl, and Stewart picks the 34m sloop Silvertip (but not before going down another classic-yacht-that-needs-rescuing rabbit hole). In the news is the upcoming auction of 81.3-metre Alfa Nero and further details about Royal Huisman's 81-metre Sea Eagle II. Our data story, meanwhile, concerns superyacht constructed in Turkey.
