BOAT Briefing

In the third of our three-part series celebrating Ocean Talks 2025 on 12 June, Lucy Dunn sits down with speaker Dr Camilla Floros, a marine scientist with over 20 years of experience in marine conservation across the Western Indian Ocean. In a case of her career coming full circle, Floros is now working in the same place she visited as a child - which means she is in the best place to understand the effects of climate change and the need for local people to safeguard and protect marine resources. Floros talks about the importance of mixing generations-old Indigenous knowledge with next-gen methods such as ‘super coral’, a resistant coral which won’t die or bleach in warmer ocean temperatures.

To kick off our three-part series celebrating Ocean Talks 2025 on 12 June, Lucy Dunn sits down with keynote speaker, conservationist and producer Colin Butfield to discuss his latest film project, Ocean with David Attenborough and companion book, Ocean: Earth’s Last Wilderness. The two discuss Attenborough's handwritten archives, octopus gardens and the ocean’s remarkable propensity to bounce back. If the ocean is allowed to recover, Butfield concludes, it will do a huge part of fighting climate change for us.BOAT Pro: https://boatint.com/zgSubscribe: https://boatint.com/zhContact us: [email protected]

In this week's episode, we dig into the recently published Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB) interim report into the sinking of the 56-metre superyacht Bayesian in August last year, resulting in the loss of seven lives. For the first time, the narrative of what happened that night can be disclosed, and we also review the MAIB's comments on the weather conditions that fateful evening and Bayesian's stability vulnerabilities. Georgia, meanwhile, is newly returned from the Galapagos and tells us why these very special islands should be on every superyacht itinerary.

In this interview, Stewart sits down with Bruce Brakenhoff, executive director at Edmiston, in the cockpit of 56-metre Rosehearty, to talk about his long career in superyachting.

He joined Edmiston as few years ago and continues to be involved in some of the biggest sailing deals on the market.

Jeff Summers, senior designer for Scout Boats in South Carolina, walks us through the story of building the American boat builder’s flagship, the LXS 670 670, a $6.8 million, five-outboard powered, 60mph, 20.35 metre yacht, created with superyacht designers Harrison Eidsgaard. Summers, a graduate of a car design school, interned with Heesen Yachts where he got an understanding for superyacht design and from there, looked for a place with a beach and palm trees and landed his job with Scout, an ambitious and innovative builder that has made a giant splash with its newest launch, in 2016. Debuting this year at the Palm Beach International Boat Show, the first LXS 670, built with carbon fibre and fibreglass, has a sporty design, but lots of interior room - a versatile, fast platform that can do all kinds of things, and could be a support vessel for a larger yacht with a range of about 400 nautical miles with 1,500 gallons of fuel.

This week, we remember two legends of the superyacht industry – Frans Heesen and Eddie Jordan. Heesen has also been in the news due to a recent change of ownership and the release of some very positive financial results. We dig into both stories in the podcast. Our travel editor, Georgia, meanwhile, tells us why Nova Scotia is one of the most exciting new destinations for food, drink and superyacht lovers and we look at the latest tariff news and examine ways the superyacht industry might be affected if Trump's reciprocal tariffs aren't negotiated down.

In his 30 years of cruising the world in his 51-metre Feadship Double Haven, there aren't many places Merle Hinrich hasn't been. He has circled the globe three times in his yacht, which was built as one of the original explorers (complete with bullet proof windows). Double Haven was commissioned for adventure, and Merle and his family have seen plenty of that. Don't miss this rare opportunity to sit down and hear from one of the world's most experienced superyacht owners.

In this episode of BOAT Briefing, Caroline sits down with BOAT’s business editor Gabrielle Lazaridis to discuss the fate of sanctioned superyacht Amadea, after a US judge dismissed an attempt to halt the vessel’s forfeiture to the US Justice Department. They also touch on Trump’s recently enacted steel and aluminium tariffs, and how this is expected to disrupt the yachting industry, along with a sneak peek at the record number of superyachts attending this year’s Palm Beach show, which could very well become the US's number one showcase for large yachts.

On March 1st, Tobias will embark on a journey around the world, stopping in everywhere from Greece to Costa Rica and Japan, all in a quest to discover the secret to a longer life. Those onboard won’t be charter guests, but people he’s invited specifically because they share his curiosity around longevity and health. They’ll dine on personalised recipes, tailored to results of their own DNA, blood and microbiome tests, follow rigorous workout plans, and share their own academic findings on the subject as part of this unique and unusual cruise. As well as details on the voyage, Tobias also shares his journey to owning and refitting the yacht, and the business background that lead him to where he is today.

Josh Golder, the owner of yacht King Benji, is a disruptor. He doesn’t call himself that but his unusual approach to charter marketing is raising eyebrows. He named King Benji, a 47 metre custom yacht he commissioned as his largest boat to date, after his dog, and from there built a brand and charter program. From being imaged as his personal home on the water, King Benji has become one of the best-known and most recognisable yachts on the charter market today thanks in no small part to its social media presence. And this digital marketing expert who can’t sit still has thrown the windows open and let everyone in. US BOAT editor Cecile Gauert speaks with him about his marketing approach, from flying a banner over a boat show to invite everyone to visit, to creating a very public presence online (and managing that reputation should something go wrong) to what may come next for the King Benji brand.LINKS: On board King Benji with Josh Golder: https://boatint.com/ceA true ability for crazy adventures - the building of King Benji: https://boatint.com/cfWhy this experienced charterer keeps returning to 47m superyacht King Benji: https://boatint.com/cgBOAT Pro: https://www.boatinternational.com/boat-proSubscribe: https://www.boatinternational.com/subscriptionsContact us: [email protected]

Stewart Campbell sits down with Captain Guy Booth to discuss Phi, the 58-metre Royal Huisman motor yacht that has been trapped in London since March 2022, when she was placed under a temporary detention order by the British government.
