Bluewater Yachting is over the moon to be able to state that it is the sponsor of the Crew Lounge at MYBA Charter Show 2024. If you’ve not yet experienced a Bluewater Crew Lounge, just know that it is an absolute sanctuary during this demanding event. These lounges are not only comfortable, but they’re also designed for you to meet and connect with your peers and possibly leverage that into some professional growth.
Next to the lively "Tasting Lounge & Bar" in Module 9, the Crew Lounge invites guests to enter and stay a while. The lounge was created for you, the show’s guests, to have a tranquil space - right next to quite a few of the exhibits - to sit and relax. The Crew Lounge offers three key elements in a serene atmosphere: a place to sit, a place to recharge (your device, if necessary), and a place to consider recharging your career, too.
Bluewater Yachting is committed to ensuring an exceptional experience for everyone involved at the MYBA Charter Show. That commitment is underscored by its status as a Gold Sponsor of the event in 2024, and it sends a clear message beyond that: Bluewater Yachting is here to support the community of yachts, and the people who work in them.
Additionally, the Crew Lounge will present dedicated programming from Monday to Wednesday, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.
These engaging discussions will cover:
Expect not just presentations, but interactive activities designed to enhance your experience at the show.
Come and share with us on Monday from 17:30 to 18:30 at the MYBA Charter Show 2024, in an incredibly informative crew wellbeing session presented in partnership with ISWAN, Yacht Crew Help, and Angels On Board. This isn’t going to be your typical event show; rather, it’s designed specifically to address crew wellbeing as an important part of the yachting industry that needs more focus. According to our partners, ISWAN (the International Seafarers’ Welfare and Assistance Network), Yacht Crew Help, and Angels On Board, seafarers and their families face a number of challenges endemic to the maritime world that mean that mental health and wellbeing must be prioritized. We hope this session equips you with some essentials for not just surviving the season you’ve entered but also thriving in your careers.
Explore the future of yachting technology during the Wednesday session as NLab™, an innovative Think Tank focused on Next-Generation Technologies and innovation, and the creators of the groundbreaking YachtFolio platform present futuristic tools for real-time crew training and certification powered by AI.
Begin an exciting odyssey with the yacht-enhanced Treasure Hunt, which promotes not only teamwork but also lighthearted fun for all involved with the boat and the show. This enthralling activity presents several challenges - some quite obscure - that require all hands to work together to uncover the several items hidden all around the boat.
Moreover, the MYBA Charter Show 2024 boasts a significant fundraising event - a raffle held in conjunction with ISWAN and YachtCrewHelp. YachtCrewHelp, which is part of ISWAN, runs a confidential, helpline service in multiple languages that offers free support to the world’s yacht crew. Everyone is invited to take part in this worthy initiative, with the understanding that any contribution of at least €5 will not only help maintain YachtCrewHelp’s extraordinary service but will also give the donor a chance to win some amazing prizes. And we’re not talking about a couple of lame consolation prizes; 50% of the proceeds from this raffle will go towards funding ISWAN and YachtCrewHelp’s very important work. That makes sense, right?
Bluewater Yachting offers a warm welcome to all attendees of the MYBA Charter Show 2024 to come to the Crew Lounge, take part in the fundraising raffle, and enjoy the hospitality and support of Bluewater Yachting alongside its esteemed partners.
