Packed with need-to-know advice for onboard adventures, inspiring insights from intrepid yacht owners and essential know-how on building sustainability into a voyage, the annual Explorer Yachts Summit again proved invaluable for the expedition yacht community.
Held at event was sponsored by a cross-section of explorer-related businesses, including Damen Yachting, Cantiere delle Marche, EYOS, Triton Submarines and ICON Yachts. The day kicked off with an illuminating snapshot of the market from editor-in-chief Stewart Campbell, based on pinpoint-accurate data from BOAT Pro. Expedition yacht owner and adventurer Victor Vescovo detailed the vital lessons and otherworldly experiences of his record-breaking mission to plumb the deepest points of the world's five oceans. He also revealed his passion for mapping the seabed – and explained in fascinating detail how the relatively simple addition of specialised sonar systems will allow other owners to join the cause.
