16:00 - 17:30 Keynote – The Bottom Line Operating Budgets, Repair Bills, Management Charges, Staff Costs and Third Party Fees are often cited as the reason that some owners don’t feel comfortable with their investment in yachting. Therefore we have invited a panel of forward thinking managers, brokers, advisors and captains to explore what areas of this important aspect of our market can and should change. Intelligent ideas and clear examples of better fi nancial control and fee structures will be debated and areas of the market that do affect the levels of trust and transparency will be explored. The end result of this session will be an action plan for changing the status quo in the market, with real models to improve the bottom line and control the fi nancial bleed that owners sometimes face without real opportunity to control.

Day 2 – Tuesday 13 November 10:00 - 11:00 Registration and Breakfast
11:00 - 12:00 Presentation – Superyacht Industry Business Principals
Following last year’s session where a panel of respected industry lawyers and the President of the ISS discussed ways of developing a code of ethics, this session will show what has been achieved in the last 12 months. Showcasing the “Superyacht Industry Business Principles” that the ISS has been working on with members of the wider industry and allowing audience participation and interaction in reaction to these principals, this session is a crucial update on this valuable initiative. Ken Hickling - ISS
12:00 - 13:00 Keynote - The Future of Propulsion Over the years there has been talk of over engineered yacht projects with too much horsepower and very ineffi cient systems. This session is designed to explore through open dialogue between manufacturers and project teams, the future of propulsion and what we can expect to see driving yachts of the next decade. Much has been talked about hybrid systems, dual fuel, new power sources and other proven new technologies that could be the way forward, but it would be good for all parties to discuss the barriers to change, the regulatory landscape, the testing and sales process, what clients are looking for and explore the real application of new technology, in a way that optimises the most intelligent choices. Wilco van der Linden – Wartsila Stefan Mueller - Director, Application Center Marine, MTU Friedrichshafen GmbH
