Princess Yachts, the UK’s leading luxury yacht manufacturer, is proud to mark 10 years of collaboration with the Marine Conservation Society (MCS) – a decade dedicated to protecting and regenerating vital marine habitats. This milestone also sees the natural conclusion of Princess Yachts’ renewed three-year sponsorship of the PLYMFISH project, the latest in a legacy of impactful joint initiatives since the partnership began in 2015.
Rightboat.com, one of the fastest-growing marine marketplaces in the US and UK, has announced the launch of Propel, a new OEM-focused marketing program purpose-built to deliver targeted exposure, lead generation, and brand control for manufacturers of new boats.
Developed in response to evolving digital demands from OEMs and dealers, Propel enables brands to connect with serious, high-intent buyers across the Rightboat network, now used over 7 million times annually by boat shoppers.
Marking a decade of celebrating marina excellence, these awards honour the dedication and passion of marinas and their teams across the UK and worldwide. By recognising those that consistently raise the bar in service and customer satisfaction, the Marina Awards spotlight the tireless efforts to create unforgettable experiences for both resident and visiting yacht owners.
TYHA Chairman, Steve Arber, Paul Knox-Johnston of Haven Knox-Johnston, and TYHA General Manager Jon White, took to the stage alongside representatives from the more than 200 Gold Anchor accredited marinas globally, all hoping to take home one of the highly coveted awards.
“These awards are incredibly special because they are voted for by berth holders themselves. They truly celebrate the cream of the crop, marinas that offer unbeatable service and an extraordinary experience for berth holders and visitors alike,” Jon added, "It’s fantastic to see so many people here, not just to cheer on the winners, but to celebrate the hard work and camaraderie of the entire marina community.”
