From 26 September to 1 October, Port Hercules will once again be the hotspot of the international yachting community. The prestigious Monaco Boat Show is coming up and will once again attract 30,000 visitors to the principality on the Côte d’Azur. With around 600 exhibitors from more than 38 countries and 100 yachts on the jetties, this international event is an absolute highlight on any yachting calendar.
Ocean Independence is represented this year with an impressive line-up. The brokerage house with more than twelve branches worldwide is mooring four veritable superyachts, including among others the 68-metre Soaring, which will be shown in cooperation with Abeking & Rasmussen, as well as the 52-metre CIAO, which was only delivered to her owner by CRN in July 2022. The Ocean Independence fleet at the Monaco Yacht Show is completed by the 39-metre gentleman’s yacht TRAFALGAR and the 49.9-metre SIBELLE, built by Heesen.
Commenting on the company’s involvement at the Monaco Yacht Show, Peter Hürzeler, Managing Partner of Ocean Independence, said: “We are looking forward to a show without major pandemic restrictions and, of course, again to many personal meetings with numerous customers. The yachts we have entered this year are an impressive example of Ocean Independence’s excellent market position”. In addition to the yachts, Ocean Independence will also be present with an information stand (JS13 at Jules Soccal), where an international team will provide information and advice on all the company’s services – Yacht Charter, Yacht Sales, Yacht Management, Aviation and Yacht Financing.
