  • intro music sound level

    Good show. Please adjust the intro music volume, which is WAY louder than the speakers that follow it. Small thing, but very annoying …

  • Bob Giles interview …

    … the only interview from this podcast and one of the worst interviews I have heard in years … was the interviewer perhaps just super nervous? I had hoped to learn more about Giles, who is a super interesting guy, but alas …

279: The Big BOAT Interview: John Caudwell on the business of charter
Q: When did you decide Titania would be a charter yacht rather than a private vessel?
It was clear from the start due to limited personal time and a wide range of interests; turning it into a charter business made sense right away.
275: Is this the brand that will change the perception of travel at sea?
Q: And how do you think that differs from other brands that either the land-based properties that are moving on to sea offerings or luxury yachts?
We're actually part of the world's largest shipping organization, MSC, which gives us deep-rooted history and stability.
275: Is this the brand that will change the perception of travel at sea?
Q: So when you joined, is there anything that you thought was fundamentally missing from luxury cruise?
We very much see ourselves as a floating hotel, whose address is the ocean, so removing frictions of everyday life is a key focus.
275: Is this the brand that will change the perception of travel at sea?
Q: And can you tell us a little bit about why we're here in Milan?
We're here to really kick off the launch phase in terms of our news for Explora III, whereby she takes to the waters at the end of July this year.
273: Fraser’s view from the top: Anders Kurtén on sales, charter and what’s next
Q: What do you see as the biggest challenge facing the super industry right now?
The future outlook is bright, and the industry continues to attract younger clients, maintaining the dream of freedom and social opportunities that yachting offers.
