In this week's episode, Stewart reports back after events in Washington DC and Spain, while Katia has been travelling throughout Europe attending events with the Ferretti Group and Sanlorenzo. We preview the upcoming Ocean Talks event in London on 6 June and learn why Eddie Jordan has been back in the headlines. The "Queen of the J Class" Shamrock V is back in the water after an extensive rebuild. We look back at her incredible history and debate whether having an artwork by a famous pig makes a brokerage yacht more valuable.

If you haven’t had a chance to step on board Ocean Alexander’s brand-new 35P, which debuted at the Palm Beach International Boat Show 2024, you can hear all about the shipyard’s new model and series in this week’s Big BOAT Interview, which was created for Ocean Alexander. The yard’s head of global operations Dan Mundy tells BOAT’s commercial content editor Hannah Rankine about the series’ inception and some of the cool features on board. Stay tuned until the end to hear a sneak peek into what’s coming next in Ocean Alexander’s Puro series.

In this week's episode of BOAT Briefing, Stewart returns after six weeks on the road without a tan but with a few stories to tell, while Katia reports back from a bustling road trip visiting six shipyards and 14 superyachts. We look ahead to a busy run of events, including the much anticipated World Superyacht Awards, and a brand new regatta in Antiparos, Greece. We also take a deep dive into the history of the North West Passage, while in the news is the upcoming auction of the big Feadship Royal Romance, and a special report about the Sunreef catamaran SOL.
