Host Rick Thomas welcomes Rose Damen, Managing Director at Damen Yachting, for a powerful conversation recorded on board the 74-metre Amels 242 CASINO ROYALE in South Florida.This episode looks inside one of the most influential yacht builders in the world, exploring the future of Damen Yachting, the strength of the Amels platform philosophy, the importance of shipyard investment, and the balance between proven design, personalisation, innovation, and full-custom superyacht construction.Rose shares insight into Damen Yachting's continued growth, including current activity at the Vlissingen shipyard in the Netherlands, the AMELS 60 and AMELS 80 programmes, Yacht Support and Explorer builds, and the company's 120-metre full-custom project. She also explains how Damen Yachting approaches innovation through operational data, centralised research and development, co-maker partnerships, and practical technologies that must work in the real world.At the centre of the conversation is the wider yachting experience. As Rose explains, the shipyard delivers half of that experience through the yacht itself, while the captain and crew deliver the other half. Rick and Rose explore why owners, shipyards, captains, crew, designers, brokers, and technical partners all play a critical role in shaping the future of the superyacht industry.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━SUPPORTED BYEngineered Yacht Solutions━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Specialist welding, fabrication, and onboard engineering for yachts where precision is not optional.https://eyswelding.com

Superyacht crew wellbeing is no longer a soft conversation. It is directly connected to performance, retention, communication, leadership, safety, and the long-term health of the yachting industry.In this episode of On The Bridge, Alicia Store, COO of dsnm Ltd, speaks with Cally Cooper, owner and founder of WellCrew, about how yacht crew can be better supported in high-pressure onboard environments.Cally shares how her background in health, performance, nutrition, coaching, NLP, endurance challenges, and military-linked high-performance environments led to the creation of WellCrew. Her work focuses on helping crew optimize their health, understand their mindset and behaviour, recover properly, communicate better, and perform as stronger teams onboard.The conversation covers practical tools being used across the industry, including psychometric profiling, stress and recovery data, glucose monitoring, blood work, personalized supplementation, nutrition education, wearable technology, and VR-based seasickness support.This is not wellbeing as a buzzword. It is about measurable support, healthier crew, stronger teams, better retention, and giving captains, owners, yacht managers, and crew the tools to build a more sustainable future onboard.This episode explores:• How WellCrew supports superyacht crew health and performance• Why crew wellbeing affects retention, leadership, and onboard culture• The role of psychometric profiling in improving communication and teamwork• How stress, sleep, recovery, and nutrition can be measured and supported• Why yacht crew need personalized health strategies, not generic advice• How seasickness technology could improve life onboard for crew and guests• What captains, owners, and yacht managers can do to start supporting crew more effectivelyGuest: Cally Cooper, Owner & Founder, WellCrew Host: Alicia Store, COO, dsnm Ltd Series: On The Bridge Produced by: Yachting International RadioWebsite: www.well-crew.com Yachting News: https://www.yachtinginternationalradio.com/yachting-newsSearch Yachting Channel on your favourite podcast platform for more conversations from across the global yachting industry.

What really happens behind the scenes in yacht crew recruitment?In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman is joined by Sophie Barber, founder of Vela Recruitment, for an honest and practical conversation about how superyacht recruitment has changed, why references remain complicated, and why the right placement still depends on far more than a strong CV.Sophie shares her journey from working onboard yachts to building a career in superyacht recruitment, including her early days in Antibes, her time at Bluewater, and the experience that led her to launch Vela Recruitment. The conversation looks at the changing recruitment landscape, why junior and senior crew roles now require different approaches, and why HOD placements demand deeper understanding, stronger vetting, and a real sense of personality fit.Cherise and Sophie also discuss some of the harder issues facing the industry, including vague references, known bad actors, reputation risk, female crew safety, onboard relationships, fake CVs, fake yacht jobs, and the increasing role of AI in recruitment.At the centre of the conversation is one clear point: yacht recruitment is still a relationship business. Technology can help with validation, systems, and speed, but it cannot replace trust, integrity, instinct, accountability, and the human judgement needed to place the right person on the right yacht.In This Conversation: Sophie Barber's move from yacht crew into recruitment Why she founded Vela Recruitment How yacht crew recruitment has changed Why junior roles and senior HOD roles need different hiring approaches The challenge of vague or dishonest references Why recruiters need to read between the lines Fake CVs, fake jobs, and red flags for crew Crew safety, female protection, and industry accountability The role AI may play in recruitment Why human judgement still matters in yacht hiring Guest:Sophie BarberFounder, Vela RecruitmentHost:Cherise ReedmanSuperyacht LaundryPrefer to read?

Where the Map Ends: The Finest MYSEA Yacht Charter Experiences Do Not Simply Show You the World. They Renew Your Sense of Wonder. Where the horizon begins to change.There is a moment, somewhere after the coastline disappears, when the world becomes impossibly quiet. Not silent. The sea is never silent but emptied of interruption; no traffic, no schedules, no performance. Only the sound of water moving against the hull and the peculiar awareness that life on land has fallen away behind you.Tim Clark, Senior Yacht Broker of MySea, joins the Elevated Magazines Podcast for an insightful conversation about bespoke, curated yacht charter experiences. Tim was introduced to the Superyacht industry at aged 19 when taking his first job as a Deckhand on a 65m charter yacht in Antibes. The seed was sewn! Tim went on to spend the next 10 years working on private and charter yachts in the summers, working his way up to Captain and spending the winter months at Solent University completing a BSc Hons degree in Maritime Studies. Tim came ashore in 1999 and joined Yachting Partners International as a trainee broker. After 5 years there he moved to join the start of what became Ocean independence as Senior broker and Charter Manager and after 9 years joined MYSEA to head up the UK Office.Learn more at MySea.co.Explore ElevatedMagazines.com/podcastListen on Spotify | Apple Podcasts | Amazon Music | YouTube | Pandora | iHeart

What happens when drinking is no longer making life bigger, better, easier, or more fun?In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman is joined by Laura Kilbey, founder of Sober Crew Social Club, for an honest, funny, and deeply human conversation about alcohol, yacht crew culture, identity, loneliness, pressure, safety, and what it really means to choose sobriety while working in an industry where drinking has long been part of the social fabric.Laura shares how Sober Crew Social Club began, why she stopped drinking, and why people do not need to hit “rock bottom” before deciding that alcohol is no longer serving them. The conversation moves through blackout drinking, crew nights out, anxiety, isolation, onboard safety, emotional coping, social pressure, and the difference between giving something up and choosing something better.This is not a lecture. It is not about telling everyone to stop drinking. It is about giving yacht crew permission to question their relationship with alcohol without shame, without labels, and without waiting for things to fall apart first.In This Conversation: Why Sober Crew Social Club started Drinking culture within yachting Why “rock bottom” should not be the benchmark The difference between problem drinking and alcohol no longer serving you Blackout drinking, anxiety, and the morning-after fear Why yacht crew face added risks around alcohol and safety How drinking can become a way to cope with stress, loneliness, and pressure Why stopping drinking onboard can feel different from stopping ashore The importance of community, accountability, and honest support Why sobriety can be framed as gaining something, not losing something Guest:Laura KilbeyFounder, Sober Crew Social ClubHost:Cherise ReedmanSuperyacht LaundrySearch Yachting Channel on your favourite podcast platform for more conversations from across the global yachting industry.Superyacht Laundry | Yachting International RadioImportant note:This conversation is for awareness, reflection, and general discussion only.

Carbon fibre is often associated with performance and aesthetics, but in the superyacht industry it also plays a serious role in safety, efficiency, crew handling, and intelligent design.In this episode of Positive Waves Media, host Jana Thomas speaks with Paul Hackett, Founder and Managing Director of C-Quip, about the New Zealand company's work in carbon fibre equipment for the global superyacht sector. C-Quip specialises in lightweight, high-strength solutions including boarding equipment, pilot ladders, swimming ladders, retractable light masts, tender fenders, and custom-engineered yacht products.Paul explains how C-Quip's marine heritage, carbon fibre expertise, aerospace and motorsport crossover, and America's Cup experience have shaped the company's approach to innovation. The conversation also looks at why lighter, stronger equipment matters onboard, not only for owners and guests, but for the crew responsible for deploying, moving, lifting, and managing these systems in real working conditions.Because several products are shown visually during the conversation, the YouTube version is especially useful for seeing the equipment being discussed.Watch the video version here:https://youtu.be/QkLMlbRJuzYPrefer to read?

When yacht crew work away from home, routine health appointments can quickly become complicated. Boats move, schedules change, contracts run long, and personal medical checks can be pushed further down the list.But some checks cannot wait.In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman speaks with Jayn Willis, founder of The Floating Florista Foundation, about her daughter Gemma, known throughout the yachting community as The Floating Florista.Gemma was a yacht stew, florist, and much-loved member of the industry. Fit, healthy, active, and full of life, she was diagnosed with cervical cancer after a routine screening. Her story is now part of a wider mission to remind women, crew, captains, and senior teams that cervical screening, women's health, and routine medical appointments must be treated as essential crew welfare.Through The Floating Florista Foundation and the Do It For Gem message, Jayn continues to raise awareness around cervical screening, especially for those working at sea or away from home for long periods. This conversation is about grief, legacy, awareness, and why the industry must make space for crew to protect their health without embarrassment, dismissal, or delay.In this episode: Gemma's life and legacy in the yachting industry Why cervical screening matters, even without symptoms The challenges of accessing routine health checks while working away Why captains and senior crew need to take women's health seriously The work of The Floating Florista Foundation The meaning behind Do It For Gem Why crew health should never be dismissed as optional Guest:Jayn WillisFounder, The Floating Florista FoundationHost:Cherise ReedmanSuperyacht LaundrySearch Yachting Channel on your favourite podcast platform for more conversations from across the global yachting industry.Superyacht Laundry | Yachting International RadioImportant note:This conversation is for awareness and general information only.

Yacht crew work across borders, contracts, flag states, management structures, and onboard procedures, but many do not fully understand what those details mean until something goes wrong.In this episode of Superyacht Laundry, host Cherise Reedman is joined by Lucy Goff and Jenny Harris from Ocean Legal for a practical conversation about yacht crew rights, marine law, employment contracts, NDAs, jurisdiction, reporting, evidence, and the realities of working at sea.This is not a fear-based conversation. It is a knowledge-based one.Lucy and Jenny explain why yacht crew need to understand their contracts before joining a vessel, what governing law and jurisdiction clauses can mean in real life, why union support such as Nautilus can matter, and why NDAs do not automatically silence crew after serious incidents.They also discuss one of the biggest myths in yachting: that working in “international waters” means there are no rules.For crew, captains, senior crew, yacht managers, recruiters, owners' representatives, and anyone involved in the superyacht industry, this conversation belongs in the wider discussion around safety, accountability, welfare, and professional standards.In this episode:  Yacht crew contracts and red flags   Governing law and jurisdiction   Nautilus, union support, and legal backup   NDAs and privacy limits   Onboard reporting versus criminal reporting   Evidence, timing, and documentation   Why crew should ask questions before there is a crisis   How Ocean Legal is making marine law more accessible  Guests Lucy Goff, Ocean Legal Jenny Harris, Ocean LegalHost Cherise Reedman, Superyacht LaundryLearn more about Ocean Legal: https://oceanlegal.co.uk/Prefer to read?

Superyacht brokerage is not what yacht crew think it is. And life after yachting is where most people get caught out.In this episode of Rich AF, Charl Minnaar (The Yachting Investor) sits down with yacht broker Antonio Palazuelos Archdale of FGI Yachts to break down the reality of transitioning from yacht crew to land-based careers in the yachting industry.From entering yacht brokerage with no network to spending heavily before closing a single deal, Antonio explains why the superyacht brokerage world is a long-term game built on relationships, persistence, and financial resilience.The conversation then shifts into life after yachting. What happens when the structure disappears, expenses become real, and time is no longer controlled for you. They unpack the financial shock many crew face, the challenges of managing time on land, and why so many people underestimate how difficult the transition can be.They also take a hard look at lifestyle creep in yachting, from hobby spending to luxury traps, and why failing to plan ahead leaves too many crew starting over with nothing despite years of high income.

What defines real superyacht innovation after more than 140 years of yacht building?In this episode of Yachting USA, Rick Thomas sits down with Anders Pehrson, Commercial Director of Huisfit, and Jurjen van 't Verlaat, Marketing & Communications at Royal Huisman, Huisfit and Rondal.Royal Huisman is one of the most respected names in superyacht construction, known for precision engineering, high-performance sailing yachts, and a long-term approach to build quality that extends far beyond delivery. Through its refit division, Huisfit, the shipyard continues to redefine what is possible by extending vessel lifespan and integrating advanced technologies such as hybrid propulsion systems.This conversation explores how heritage, engineering discipline, and strategic investment shape the future of superyacht construction and refit, and why lifecycle thinking is becoming central to the global fleet.• Over 140 years of Royal Huisman superyacht heritage • The engineering behind true superyacht quality • Hybrid propulsion and future-ready yacht systems • Why superyacht refit is critical to long-term performance • Northern Europe's leadership in yacht building and refit • The shift toward lifecycle thinking in modern yachting

Superyacht refits do not fail in the shipyard. They fail in planning, communication, and execution long before a vessel arrives.In this episode of Captain's Chat, Captain Liam Devlin speaks with Maria Pierce Schoenheit, Owner and Director of Operations at Maritime Project Solutions, about the real challenges behind superyacht refit projects and yacht operations.Filmed at the Palm Beach International Boat Show, one of the most important events in the global yachting calendar, this conversation highlights how poor planning, vendor misalignment, and lack of communication between captains, shipyards, and contractors continue to cost the yacht industry time, money, and efficiency.With over 20 years in the maritime industry, Maria shares how early engagement, structured planning, and strong operational leadership can dramatically improve refit outcomes across the superyacht sector.This episode also introduces the American Refit Leadership Council and the upcoming American Refit Podcast, both focused on improving standards, consistency, and collaboration across the superyacht refit industry.

What is the Global Superyacht Forum Miami and why is it positioning itself as one of the most important new events in the superyacht industry?In this episode of Yachting USA, the focus is entirely on the Global Superyacht Forum Miami, a high-level industry forum designed for owners, family offices, investors, and senior decision-makers shaping the future of yachting.This is not a yacht show. This is a strategic platform built around influence, investment, infrastructure, and the evolving role of yachting within the luxury hospitality and asset landscape.As Miami continues to establish itself as a global hub for wealth and superyacht activity, this forum brings together the people who are driving decisions across ownership, development, and long-term industry direction.From ownership structures and refit strategies to global investment flows and infrastructure challenges, this conversation explores why forums like this are becoming critical to the future of the superyacht sector.

Life as a superyacht chef is often seen as glamorous, but the reality behind the galley tells a very different story.In this episode of The Crew Car, Captain James Battey, Founder of the Yacht Workers Council, speaks with superyacht chef Rebecca Yewdall about the true demands of working across the global yachting industry, from stepping into last-minute roles and managing high-pressure galley environments to balancing family life with an unpredictable career at sea.This conversation explores what it really takes to succeed as a freelance yacht chef, including provisioning challenges, emergency placements, and the expectation to deliver exceptional standards regardless of the circumstances.It also moves beyond the galley into wider industry issues, including crew welfare, hiring expectations, retention challenges, and the need for stronger support systems across the superyacht sector.Rebecca offers a grounded and honest perspective on building a sustainable career in yachting, highlighting both the opportunities and the pressures that define life on board.This episode is relevant for captains, chefs, crew, yacht managers, owners, and anyone interested in the realities of working in the superyacht industry.Prefer to read?

What does it actually take to build a career and business inside the superyacht industry?In this episode of Yachting USA, host Rick Thomas speaks with Morgan Sandoval, Founder of Morganized and Head of Sponsorship & Partnerships for the Global Superyacht Forum Miami.Morgan's pathway into yachting reflects the reality of how many careers in this industry are built. From corporate roles in New York supporting senior executives, through COVID layoffs, and into entry-level boating roles, her progression into yacht brokerage and now consulting was developed step by step through experience, adaptability, and operational awareness.Working within yacht brokerage, Morgan expanded from administrative support into listings, contracts, marketing, and client management, becoming a central operational force within the business. That same foundation now drives Morganized, a consulting model focused on improving structure, efficiency, and team performance across the yachting industry.This conversation also addresses the less visible side of career development. The personal challenges, resilience, and reinvention required to continue forward in a demanding, relationship-driven sector.As the superyacht industry continues to evolve, the ability to create structure, manage complexity, and operate across multiple roles is becoming essential.Guest:Morgan Sandoval Founder, Morganized Head of Sponsorship & Partnerships, Global Superyacht Forum MiamiMorganized: https://www.morganized.coGlobal Superyacht Forum Miami: https://www.gsyforummiami.com/Host:Rick Thomas━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ SUPPORTED BY Engineered Yacht Solutions ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If you need serious metalwork done right, from precision yacht fabrication to dependable, real-world solutions, Engineered Yacht Solutions is the team to call. Visit: https://eyswelding.com

After cruising the Society Islands on board 48-metre Oceanfast yacht Big Sky, Holly shares a first-hand account of navigating French Polynesia by yacht – from the dramatic peaks of Moorea and encounters with humpback whales to the practical realities of reaching and chartering in one of the most remote destinations on earth.

Money and power are merging on the high seas. The New Yorker's Evan Osnos exposes how super yachts became the new seat of American oligarchy.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1217What We Discuss with Evan Osnos:Billionaire political donations increased 200x in 20 years ($25M to $3B in 2024), marking America's shift from democracy to oligarchy — where economic and political power fuse.Super yachts are floating power centers — not just status symbols but boardrooms, tax havens, and networking hubs where billion-dollar deals happen beyond public scrutiny and regulation.Each super yacht pollutes like 1,500 cars running continuously, costs 10 percent of its purchase price annually to maintain, and creates toxic work environments for crew in legal gray zones.The ultra-wealthy face insatiable desire — where 50-meter boats become "embarrassing," half-billion-dollar yachts are "quite nice," and satisfaction remains perpetually out of reach.History shows extreme inequality resolves through crisis — war, revolution, or pandemic. But we can prevent these outcomes by making systems less advantageous to the few and more inclusive to all. Support politicians who limit campaign finance influence. Vote with your wallet. Build communities that value contribution over consumption. Small actions compound: we shape culture by what we celebrate and reject.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
