Activities will include golf, cocktail parties, dinner and more.

β€œThis is truly a unique opportunity where industry representatives and crew can socialize and get up close with the Captains,” said USSA Chairman John Mann. This year’s event will provide more of a social flair then in the past. There will be several networking opportunities taking place beginning with a golf outing at Mullet Bay Golf Course continuing with several engagements offering a casual atmosphere to mingle, create new relationships and learn from each other’s experiences.

Captains and senior officers can get first-hand answers to the major issues that directly affect their ability to do their jobs while networking in a social environment with leaders representing all facets of the Superyacht industry.
