However, this spectacular exceptional project did not await us in Cannes, Monaco or the Caribbean, but in the frozen Upper Eider at the Nobiskrug outfitting pier. How we experienced the sight and the yacht during an extensive tour with "Artefact" -captain Aaron Clark in our detailed portrait. The fact that we combined the impressive appointment with a meeting with the new Nobiskrug -Managing Director Raimon Strunck will also benefit you.
Where is the Origin of yachting ? Our editor Marianne Nissen, who once again lived up to her reputation as a walking superyacht encyclopaedia, investigated this question and condensed her enormous historical knowledge with weeks of sometimes dusty research work in the BOOTE EXCLUSIV archive and presented it in her usual readable form.
The superyacht world has always been a playground for extraordinary people and characters with a recognisable value. British multimillionaire and series founder Jasper Smith also fits into this category - in an absolutely positive sense. With Arksen the experienced sailor and outdoor enthusiast launched a yacht brand that is not geared towards making a quick profit, but has a deeper purpose. Find out what role models drive Smith and what his children have to do with his exciting company.
BOOTE EXCLUSIV 3/2021 will be available in well-stocked newsagents from 28 April. If not, you can order the current or missed issues conveniently and free of shipping costs throughout Germany here in the online shop.
