Dear APSA Members and Friends,

Asia Superyacht Night Monaco — Biggest Yet

The Monaco Yacht Show has come and gone, and APSA’s Asia Superyacht Night (ASYN) continues to draw a crowd. I am delighted with the way this event has grown over the years — it continues to be such a popular event with the Asia-Pacific superyacht community, and is a great way to start the Monaco Yacht Show. This year’s party was the largest we have ever held.

Special thanks to our 11 sponsors: Patron Sponsor Fema Marine, Destination Sponsor Superyacht Australia, and Platinum Sponsor Teji | Cowie. Our Gold Sponsors — YACHTZOO, Maritime Cook Islands, Charter Itinerary, and the newly branded Bali Gapura Marina — along with Silver Sponsors Frigomar, Azure Yacht Crew Health, Setouchi DMO, and Travel Cue. Photos and video from the Asia Superyacht Night will be available soon.

Thank You to All Who Attended

Finally, I would like to thank all the APSA members and friends who attended the Asia Superyacht Night, and extend personal thanks to my fellow guests including APSA General Committee Member and YACHTZOO Director Christophe Ceard, and all the members, sponsors, and supporters who make APSA events possible. The support of members is vital for the Association to grow and be an effective voice for the Asia-Pacific superyacht community.

Enjoy the rest of the boat show season and your time on the water!

Best regards,
Nigel Beatty
