Where did the idea of organizing this spectacular event come from?
“The idea of the Pomorskie Rendez-Vous was born in 2013, when I came back from the Chinese island of Hainan, where the Sanya Syperyachts Rendez – Vous is organised for many years now. The event combines the world of yachts with other luxury goods and is a great place to meet people who appreciate elegance and carefully selected products. I was then convinced that Poles are ready for this kind of an experience. And I was not wrong. The first edition of Pomorskie Rendez – Vous, as well as the second one, proved to be remarkably successful. I strongly believe that from now on the Pomorskie Rendez-Vous will settle in the calendar of the most famous events of this kind in the world. “- said Francis Lapp – Founder and President of the Sunreef Yachts shipyard.
The second edition of Pomorskie Rendez-Vous was a continuation of the tradition that begun in 2013. A following luxury scene will take place next year, also in Gdańsk.
