The most prestigious UK motor yacht brands have chosen Sevenstar Yacht Transport to ship their yachts to the Cannes Yachting Festival 2014. No less than nine yachts varying in size from 52 to 88 feet, from four high-flying brands – Princess, Sunseeker, Fairline and Pearl – were shipped by the transport vessel Egmondgracht and reached the lovely French Riviera yacht charter destination – Cannes at the end of August, well in time for the boat show, which will kick off on September 9.
Iain Smallridge, managing director of Pearl Motor Yachts stated, “The co-operation with Sevenstar Yacht Transport was again flawless and their timing for this sailing was spot-on. For quite some time now, Sevenstar has shipped every boat for us within Europe and it is a pleasure working with their team. At Pearl Motor Yachts, we are making the final arrangements for the Cannes International Boat Show, where our much anticipated Pearl 65 will be launched. We are confident that she will be a great success!”
Roger Lipman, sales director of Princess Motor Yacht Sales said, ”It is great seeing our boats for the Cannes International Boat Show depart from Southampton with Sevenstar Yacht Transport. Their service has been impeccable again, with a sailing perfectly planned and on time as promised from Southampton for the Cannes International Boat Show, as we requested.”
The Cannes Yachting Festival is the first boat show in the Mediterranean of the season, running from 9th to 14th September. It brings together the key players in pleasure boating and international luxury yachting, from exhibitors showcasing their new vessels, products, services to visitors, yacht owners and future buyers.
Mike Herrebrugh, director of Sevenstar in the UK, commented, ”I am very pleased with the continued trust of our clients who enable us time and time again to carry out their shipping requirements. Of course, this would never be possible without our expert team of loadmasters, operational staff and agents worldwide.’’
