Built by the Dutch shipyard Amels in 1999, the 52 metre superyacht Seahorse is currently in Genoa following her relaunch from Icon Yachts in Harlingen around two weeks ago. Heading to the MYBA Charter Show shortly after her extensive five month refit, she has certainly generated a lot of interest from the industry and the SYT media team were delighted to be shown around the all new Seahorse by Finnish Captain Peter Stepniewski.

You just completed a big refit at Icon Yachts, can you tell us what work was undertaken?

We did a major technical refit and installed new set of zero speed stabilizers to improve general guest comfort. We also did a big upgrade throughout her interior - everything was changed from ceiling to carpet. Amongst the other works undertaken at Icon, we also upgraded or replaced 80% of the bridge equipment. We went all digital when it comes to charts and publications onboard. We bought brand new tenders and brand new jet skis, and we also completed some paint works on the outside.

Why did the owner choose to go to Icon for the refit and not back to Amels?

It’s not that easy nowadays to choose where to go, as everyone wants to go for a refit every three to five years. We approached a few shipyards and we wanted to do a northern European refit.

Is she a popular charter yacht and do you think the refit will attract more charters?

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/160047/image/large-3b776eef82b2e0dde3fef75e48d6daf0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/160047">

This was a private Australian flagged yacht. We took her over one year ago and then we reflagged her and went into the commercial process so we could become a charter yacht. We started the charter season in mid-July 2015, and we were busy with charters until the Monaco Yacht Show. We weren’t pushed to do the refit to improve our charter schedule, but we wanted to do it. With all the visits we’re receiving here at the Show it looks like we going to be very busy again this season. She is a really attractive boat.

Where will you be cruising this summer?

We’re prepared to stay in the Med, but if we get inquiries for the Baltic sea and the owner and clients are both happy, we can go anywhere.

Have you received a lot of interest at the Show?

Yes we have. She looks 10 years younger than she is, she is really a fresh yacht. Clients are usually looking for a charter boat of a maximum of 5 years old. We are 16 years old and everybody can see that we are very good quality.

A new industry initiative has been launched by the Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC) that focuses on the impact the yachting industry has on the world’s forests. The initiative encourages clear sustainability goals and open dialogues for more responsible solutions. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/263032/image/large-9840fc3a207fde264c781f549845604d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/263032">“Yachts are an extreme luxury product, but the industry is also an important sector in the innovation of new and greener solutions for the shipbuilding industry in general,” Kristian Jørgensen, technical advisor at FSC Denmark, stated. “We often see innovation in the areas of engine technology, energy efficiency, synthetic fibres, and the direct impact of different materials on the marine environment. But the time has come to pay more attention to the timber that is used.”Timber is a staple resource for the industry, whether that’s teak decking, masts and booms, or interior outfitting – you’ll be hard-pressed to find a yacht that doesn’t make use of the material in some form. The pact set out by the FSC is committed to set standards for the origin of the timber used, to help mitigate risks against negatively impacting endangered forests and the people that live there. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/263015/image/large-b70e3c64fd22b16b99acf0958fc9cea6.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/263015">“This initiative encourages businesses to set targets which FSC, with its wide-ranging experience, supports by providing guidance and expert advice. Both in terms of the practical implementation of policies and incorporating sustainability on a wider scale than just certification,” Jørgensen continued.The FSC is encouraging the industry to choose products from sustainably managed forests to support nature, biodiversity and social development. Showing support and pledging commitment can inspire and set new standards. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/263018/image/large-9f67eb9883ca83206360d40c4e5e5053.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/263018"><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/263016/image/large-77da738437cffc581d6a2ec9c3242cff.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/263016">As part of the initiative, dialogues can be held about sustainability and more responsible solutions, particularly thorny when it comes to teak. “We cannot talk about this industry without talking about the sector’s historical dependence on teak from Myanmar. Yacht decking has shown itself to be the Achilles’ heel of the industry. The use of natural teak is not just justified by the luxurious look of the timber, but by the extreme technical quality of the wood,” Jørgensen added.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/263014/image/large-97788a8e4ebda5592fc5d0ecbde26ac9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/263014">The FSC wishes to “push forward to find excellent, responsible alternatives…it can bring together operators and show the market what is possible”. This extends beyond builders to suppliers and too. All &nbsp;FSC-certified businesses offering materials or services to yacht building are invited to participate with a supplier’s profile on the website.“When FSC works on the development of policies in a sector, our experience shows that the best way to motivate people is by being clear about the solutions that are easy and close at hand. Everyone can do something immediately by using the existing products on offer. But we also have to identify better and longer-term solutions to the more complex problems across supply chains,” Jørgensen concluded.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/263017/image/large-675e5d0b6dd12e07fe61a0f6507ffc91.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/263017">You can read more about the initiative at <a href="http://www.yachtingforforests.com" target="_blank">www.yachtingforforests.com</a>&nbsp;
