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. This fully custom yacht now faces several looming deadlines. She is at risk of falling out of class and having her insurance revoked, and now presents an increasing danger to her crew and nearby residents. The yacht needs to be lifted out of the water urgently, but hopes of a solution are fading fast.

In this Big BOAT Interview, Caroline speaks to Sebastian about the sudden, violent weather event that sank the 56-metre Bayesian off Sicily. The tragedy is part of a broader story about longer storm seasons, freak weather and unpredictable winds – changing global weather patterns that are already having an impact on the marine industry. Sebastian explains the precision with which extreme weather can be predicted, and the kind of conditions that should raise alarm bells at sea.
Wache will speak at the BOAT International Explorer Yachts Summit on November 13.

In this special episode of the Big BOAT Interview, Katia speaks to insurance expert Michelle van der Merwe, to find out why 2024 has seen a record 12 superyachts destroyed. Michelle, who works as a superyacht account manager at Pantaenius Yacht Insurance, explains why we might be seeing more accidents and how extreme weather can play a role in the claims process. Touching on Bayesian, the pair discuss how it's usually a number of factors that lead to a yacht ultimately sinking, and Michelle draws on her experience with some high-profile yacht insurance cases in the past.

This week Caroline and Cecile look at a week rife with incidents, including a yacht fire off the coast of Sardinia that resulted in the yacht’s loss, the well publicised slow collision of Lady Moura and Venus, and the sinking of Lovebug in the Chasepeake Bay.

On more positive news, they talk about Cecile’s recent trip to the Exumas and the strange history of Norman’s Cay, the debut of a secretive new 78-metre yacht by Admiral and Lobanov Design, and highlight a few of many interesting debuts at the Cannes Yachting Festival.
