Yachtzoo Monaco invited members of the Italian Yacht Masters Association to an informal discussion in Monaco, on Monday 20th January 2014. The meeting took place at the Zest restaurant in Port Hercule and covered the interesting topic of cooperation and coordination between the Yacht Manager and Captain.
Captain Dario Savino, one of the Founders of the Italian Yacht Masters Association, opened the meeting by introducing the association’s members and explained their founding principles.
Kirsten Ringsing, one of the Co-Founders of Yachtzoo, presented the company and the people from the different departments: Sales with Mark Burdis, Fleet Charter Management with Julie Bichon, Yacht Management with Jacques Potgieter concerning the Safety & Technical and Celine Effray for the Administration and Accounting.
While having a buffet lunch, round table discussions were held in small groups covering various topics such as the perceived role of Yacht Managers, MLC 2006, new EU VAT regulations, the Passenger Yacht Code and how Captains and Managers can improve confidence in the Super Yacht Industry. The day ended with the traditional French brioche, Galette des Rois, and a common statement that our industry should be based on human relations and affinities rather than figures and hard core business.
