THE INTERNATIONAL SEAKEEPERS
SOCIETY ANNOUNCES
MEGA-YACHT PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM
Launched in 2006, the Yacht Partnership Program
is intended to broaden the Society’s support
within the luxury yacht industry. Yacht Partners
consist of leading builders and suppliers to
the luxury yacht industry who want to demonstrate
their concern for the health of the sea.
Yacht
Partners join by making a one-time donation of
$25,000 plus paying annual dues of $2500. In
return, they are encouraged to use the SeaKeeper
Yacht Partner logo in their marketing and promotional
materials. In joining, they agree to help the
Society recruit new members from among their
clientele. Yacht Partners and SeaKeepers will
also plan small-scale social events, often aboard
Yacht Partner yachts, to promote camaraderie
and fellowship between Yacht Partner clients/prospects
and SeaKeeper members.
This program is being spearheaded by Board President
Jim Gilbert who said, “It’s impossible
for us at SeaKeepers to meet many of the most
important yacht owners in the world without the
cooperation of the world’s most important
builders and suppliers. This is a win-win-win
program for everyone involved: yacht owners get
to meet their peers in a friendly, intimate setting;
yacht builders get to form better personal relationships
with their best clients and prospects; and the
Society gets to meet potential new members to
support its important mission of understanding
and protecting the sea.”
