CEO Chat (continued)


On several occasions I have said how much I enjoy gathering the content for the quarterly Report Magazine. The June issue, just published, is no exception. I recommend this edition to you and send my thanks to those who have written detailed articles and features especially for you that you will not see published elsewhere. The new REG Yacht Code, for example, is a good article; as is the one on corrosion, a subject we keep returning to because of its importance to surveyors. And how heart- warming to see someone taking the humble, yet vital kill cord and creating a ‘smart’ version. Truly inspirational. These features and many more can be found in the June Report Magazine. I encourage you to read it.


And finally it would be remiss of me not to mention the demise of the London Boat Show. If you missed the news, the 2019 edition of the show has been cancelled. Many of us will have noticed the event dwindling in content and importance, but nevertheless it is a shame to see this once great event meet its end.


Survey well!
