Dear readers, the yachting season has begun and already has a lot to offer. If you are looking for a holiday and relaxation away from the norm, we have a selection of the most unusual charter formats for you. Many of these yachts are so new to the market that we will only be presenting them in detail on our pages and channels later in the year. Choose between six-deckers with a superlative character such as the 112-metre "Renaissance", curious works of cat art such as the "Artexplorer" and the floating glass house "This is it" or the 58-metre SeaXplorer "Pink Shadow".

Multihulls are - for good reasons - en vogue! Not only do they offer significantly more interior space than monohulls, they also spoil guests with more stability at anchor and underway. We present three new models with a starting price of between 4.75 and 10.5 million euros that score points on completely different levels. These include the first gunboat catamaran with a flybridge. The French brand particularly attracts performance-hungry owners who attach great importance to sailing fun and high speeds. We met one of them, Maxi owner and yacht connoisseur Lord Irvine Laidlaw, for a chat in Porto Cervo. Find out why the 81-year-old Scotsman ventured onto two hulls after decades on monohulls and how he uses his 68-metre motor yacht "Lady Christine".

With seven brands, the Ferretti Group is one of the most successful yacht builders in the world. Every year, the Italians invest tens of millions in the development of new models and innovative technologies. This pays off. One of the latest additions is the 27 metre Infynito 90, which has a completely new bow concept and interior layout. Surprisingly, nobody had these ideas before.

Enjoy this issue!

Editor in Chief YACHT

Martin Hager is editor-in-chief of the titles YACHT and BOOTE EXCLUSIV and has been working for Delius Klasing Verlag for 20 years. He was born in Heidelberg in 1978 and started sailing at the age of six, in an Opti of course. This was soon followed by 420s, Sprinta Sport and 470s, which he also sailed on the regatta course with his brother. His parents regularly took him on charter trips through the Greek and Balearic Islands. Even at a young age, it was clear to him that he wanted to turn his passion for water sports into a career. After graduating from high school and completing an internship at the Rathje boatbuilding company in Kiel, it was clear that he did not want to become a classic boatbuilder. Instead, he successfully studied shipbuilding and marine engineering in the Schleswig-Holstein state capital and focused on yacht design wherever he could. His diploma thesis dealt with the “Testing of a new speed prediction method for sailing yachts”. In 2004, the superyacht magazine BOOTE EXCLUSIV was looking for an editor with technical and nautical background knowledge, a position that was perfect for Martin Hager. The application was successful and a two-year traineeship was arranged. After twelve years as an editor, the editorial team changed and he took over responsibility for BOOTE EXCLUSIV as editor-in-chief in 2017. After long-time YACHT editor-in-chief Jochen Rieker moved to the role of publisher, Martin Hager also took over the position of editor-in-chief of Europe's largest sailing magazine YACHT, which is celebrating its 120th anniversary this year, at the beginning of 2023. When he's not working on topics for the two water sports titles, Martin Hager likes to go out on the water himself - preferably with kite and wingfoil equipment or on a little after-work trip across the Alster.
