On Tuesday, April 15th, YATCO.com: The Tech and Connect Platform of Yachting™ hosted an intimate evening of sundowners at Bo’s Beach, the FLIBS lounge location that has become a familiar and welcoming hub during yacht show season. With a curated guest list of 30 YATCO friends—ranging from long-standing partners to new clients—the event offered more than just a scenic view and a well-poured drink. It was a deliberate reminder of the importance of connecting face-to-face in the yachting industry.
In an age dominated by digital platforms, real-world interaction remains irreplaceable—especially in a business as relationship-driven as yachting. Whether you’re discussing a new listing, negotiating charter terms, or simply catching up, in-person dialogue fosters a level of trust and rapport that no email thread or virtual call can replicate.
The Sundowners event brought together the YATCO team, seasoned professionals, and emerging players in the market to share stories, insights, and opportunities in a relaxed, informal setting. These moments of connection—outside of boardrooms and beyond the docks—are where long-term relationships are forged and ideas for future collaboration begin to take shape.
Events like this are a powerful reminder that, despite the industry’s global reach and innovation, yachting is still driven by personal connections. Keep an eye out for more YATCO gatherings throughout the year — we look forward to seeing you there!
