A Christmas Message from British Superyacht

Dear Members, Ambassadors, and Industry Friends of British Superyacht,

As the festive season settles upon us and the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on what has been a truly remarkable 2025. It has been a year defined by resilience, innovation, and, above all, the incredible spirit of collaboration that defines our unique sector. At British Superyacht, our mission has always been clear: bringing together the globally renowned quality and excellence of the superyacht industry around the British Isles. Looking back at the past twelve months, I am incredibly proud of how we have lived up to that ambition.

Our success is never a solo effort. It is the result of a collective drive to maintain our position at the forefront of the superyacht world. This year has proven once again that we are Stronger Together, and it is through this unity that we continue Leading the Industry.

To Our Ambassadors

I would like to extend my deepest gratitude to the British Superyacht Ambassadors. Your expert contributions, professional insights, and unwavering support throughout 2025 have been invaluable. You are the torchbearers of British Superyacht excellence, and your willingness to share your knowledge has strengthened our community immeasurably.

To our Member businesses, thank you for your continued trust and valued support. The British Isles remains a global hub for superyacht craftsmanship, design, and service because of the high standards you set every day. I especially want to acknowledge those who provided sponsorship at our premium events in 2025. Your investment not only makes these gatherings possible but also elevates the profile of the entire British superyacht supply chain on the world stage.

Celebrating Our Community

One of the greatest highlights of 2025 has been the opportunity to connect in person. We were delighted to welcome over 700 guests who signed up for British Superyacht events this year. Whether we met at a dockside soirée or a technical seminar, the energy and passion you brought to our gatherings remind us why this industry is so special. Thank you for being part of our journey.

Looking Ahead to 2026

While we take this time to rest and celebrate with our families, the horizon for 2026 is already looking incredibly bright. We have a very exciting year ahead, with much to talk about and plan for. Our calendar is already filling up with flagship events designed to spark connection and innovation:

The British Superyacht Pavilion and Tech Talk at Seawork: Showcasing the cutting edge of maritime technology.

The British Superyacht Annual Summer Celebration: A cornerstone of our social calendar.

The British Superyacht Summit: Where the industry’s brightest minds meet to shape our future.

The British Superyacht Soirée Series: Hosted at venues both at home and at selected major international yacht shows.

Beyond our event schedule, I am thrilled to share that British Superyacht will be embarking on several exciting new initiatives in 2026. These projects are designed to broaden our reach and support in additional areas and champion British Superyacht excellence globally. We look forward to announcing these in detail in the early New Year.

On behalf of the entire team at British Superyacht, I wish you, your families, and your teams a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous, healthy, and successful 2026.

Warmest regards,

Richard Selby | CEO British Superyacht
