Building a yacht requires close cooperation. Many parties are involved from the owner’s initial order all the way through to the final delivery of the project. We are an industry that builds dreams; a great responsibility, and one that we all need to respect.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231298/image/large-7c7e611a44e0927838f18438fbb096f0.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231298">Traditionally our market has always been secretive, with nothing revealed to the outside world. A great number of yachts have been built without the client ever knowing who the suppliers and vendors are. Times have changed, and due to the increasing complexity of projects and the professionalisation of the client team, nowadays our clients want to be informed about the status of their projects, and they want to know what is happening with their money.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231299/image/large-c20b838973261e0f15be89a724821596.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231299">For this reason, we now share our work with all stakeholders involved in the project; we are dependable on one another to create these dream projects. If one company fails, the entire project may fail. As an industry, we make up a large team of experienced professionals, and we all know how to work around problems and challenges to create possibilities. This is our strength. But our greatest strength is transparency and acting responsibly as co-makers on any given project. We share this value with our people, suppliers, and clients by being transparent to the people around us.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231301/image/large-51ab9d829c19026b65e3aa5d0e95dc74.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231301">Whatever role we play in the process, we need all need to share information with our fellow co-makers. This information needs to be of quality and delivered on time; without it we can't assure our clients that the project will, likewise, be delivered on time and at the highest quality. We are then dependent on everybody in the chain of cooperation, as our work doesn’t exist independently. It’s paramount that our market is transparent and open.By opening our market allows us to embrace subcontractors into the process – it transforms them into co-makers that can communicate effectively with the shipyards, designers, and clients. The result is less friction and a more streamlined workflow, from start to finish. Furthermore, transparency inspires faith with all the partners in the project. Being transparent in our communication in planning schemes, in our attitude, and the way we work together is a sure-fire way to success.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231300/image/large-ad677992b1b03a43026d532faaafbc06.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231300">Profit is not the sole interest of any one company working on a new-build yacht; the sole interest is to realise planning and specifications, as agreed, to turn a project into a reality. This goes for the whole chain of cooperation – hence why subcontractors are in fact co-makers.Communication is key and everyone involved needs to be kept in the loop about the status of the project. This status of information, naturally, gives peace and understanding of the project, but it also inspires and allows all involved to meet on common ground. With the correct knowledge, expectations can be easily managed.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/231297/image/large-c62d82ec533cebaccc7e5de7e8a41d5a.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/231297">“At <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/139" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Struik & Hamerslag (Company)">Struik &amp; Hamerslag</a> we are more than transparent and love being part of the yard building such beautiful projects,” Eric de Meij, Project Director of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/139" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Struik & Hamerslag (Company)">Struik &amp; Hamerslag</a>, commented. “The yards participate in our monthly meetings, just to know where we stand and what we can deliver. We plan to further this imminently by providing direct access to our data, ensuring that the yards are up to speed even during the inter-meeting periods. This is a fast-paced industry, so we want to share our day-to-day records to provide maximum transparency. We want to instil trust and faith in everybody in the chain working with us. By doing so we can deliver the project on time and to specifications.”“In the future we expect to be working on this same system together with our competitors because, when it comes to interior manufacturing, we can’t do it alone and in our opinion: cooperation is key."

It’s exciting to see more eco-conscious designs and builds all around the show as designers explore new, more sustainable materials and hull designs.These innovations are important for the future of the industry. As <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6626" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Centtrip (Company)">Centtrip</a> highlighted in our recent Changing Faces of Wealth report, sustainability is an increasingly important concern for the ultra-high-net-worth individuals that are the superyacht sector’s clients. And, of course, sustainability is important for the future health of our oceans.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/329741/image/large-232f68e7de32ab5edaff90d73c68a913.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/329741">3. The evolving use of superyachtsWe’ve seen this growing for some time and it’s fascinating to see how owners’ evolving interests and concerns are influencing yacht design.Owners are spending more time aboard their yachts – sometimes to the mild concern of the charter brokers – and this is being reflected in how they use their boats and how design meets those needs.Family time is important too, and you can see this not only in more toys and beach clubs, but also in more multi-functional space for entertaining.With owners spending more time onboard, and often a greater interest in the environment, superyachts are sailing further afield. Owners wish to make a positive contribution to the environment by supporting research and even accommodating scientists for trips to the Antarctic and other regions. We’ve seen that in our own business with foreign exchange and spending on our multi-currency cards often extending beyond the usual euro and US dollar transactions.Yachts like <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/12036" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Five Oceans53.25m (174'8&quot;)Damen Yachting2024">Five Oceans</a>, Mangusta Oceano 44, and <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/6018" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Bold85.3m (279'10&quot;)Silver Yachts2019">Bold</a>, all with a range exceeding 4,000 nautical miles, exemplify this trend for long-range, explorer yachts. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/330719/image/large-c419c5c0620b04bbf1ee55ea730e9fcf.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/330719"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6626" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Centtrip (Company)">Centtrip</a>&nbsp;and the superyacht sectorFor over a decade, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6626" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Centtrip (Company)">Centtrip</a> has supported the world’s largest superyachts.

We aim to empower captains and crew to easily handle requests, challenges and opportunities in the moment, while delivering visibility and control to owners and yacht managers.The <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/224" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Monaco Yacht Show - 2024">Monaco Yacht Show</a> is exhausting.

It’s an essential event and I congratulate the organisers on delivering the industry’s leading event, every year.
