Episode description
This week, we remember two legends of the superyacht industry – Frans Heesen and Eddie Jordan. Heesen has also been in the news due to a recent change of ownership and the release of some very positive financial results. We dig into both stories in the podcast. Our travel editor, Georgia, meanwhile, tells us why Nova Scotia is one of the most exciting new destinations for food, drink and superyacht lovers and we look at the latest tariff news and examine ways the superyacht industry might be affected if Trump's reciprocal tariffs aren't negotiated down. All this and more in this week's BOAT Briefing.
