In the latest episode of BOAT Briefing, we examine whether there could soon be a mega-merger in the world of boat sales, and we also preview the big exclusive cover boat of the July issue, 112-metre Renaissance. The 64m Royal Hakvoort Scout has been on the Thames, but are numbers of visiting superyachts to the UK's capital going up or down? In our brokerage picks, we discuss the attraction of superyacht "upcycling", and our data this week concerns superyacht activity in South East Asia: when is a boom not a boom?
