In this issue…
04 – Intelligent acquisition
In an age of mass consumerism, disposable fashion and efficiency measures that take the road most travelled, craftsman stand out as either truly unique or, to an extreme extent, pariahs. But those who strive to uphold tradition, excellence and the purveying of their craft, buck modern-day trends of fast living.
12 – Y is for Yacht
There are a million reasons to own a yacht and, after discussing the subject with several yacht owners over the past decade, Martin Redmayne writes that it is clear everyone has a different answer. But in each scenario, they have no problem justifying their latest acquistion.
16 – Destination everywhere
Has beach chic gone global or are different dress codes still de rigueur at every port of call ? Jonathan McKeever asks the experts and find out the latest beach brand to know.
26 – Hidden Treasures
Have you ever heard of Kalhu Fahala Fushi in the Kolhumadulu atoll? We didn’t think so. There are many places in the world you may never hear about, or have the opportunity to explore. Unless, of course, you are the captain of a superyacht and the world is your oyster.
34 – On Location
Turkey, the meeting point between East and West, Europe and Asia, Christianity and Islam. Christian crusaders, silk road traders and Mongolian horsemen are but a few who have crisscrossed what was once the heartland of the vast Ottoman Empire. Today they are joined by more and more discerning travellers keen to taste the exotic delights of this beguiling country, writes Felix Milns.
42 – Toy Story
Despite being top of their class in function, form and price, these must-have superyacht gadgets have something else in common: they’ll make sure you get wet and have an almighty adrenaline rush.
47 – The US$20 million question
There are many people in the world today who can afford to invest heavily in the finer things: cars, planes, property, jewellery, watches, wine. But how to invest and what to invest in is key to the success of a good life portfolio.
50 – Art of Sail
Stepping aboard a superyacht is just like walking through the doors of a luxury waterfront mansion. Everything, from the walls to the halls, drips with fine-quality frills. Except for one pretty little detail – the artwork. Art experts say the trend of superyacht owners is changing with a preference for low-value pieces. It seems these days anything goes, including faking Picasso, writes Pavel Fiorentino.
56 – The Philanthropist
A long way down a telephone line on a Florida Sunday afternoon, the bubbly, hyperenthusiastic voice of Lin Arison chimes that one day, the ‘jocks’ – the footballers, lacrosse players and cheerleaders – won’t rule the American schoolyard any more, writes Marissa Lynch.
64 – Table Talk
Now in his second Mediterranean season on board MY Paramour, Michael Savva is one of the top chefs in the Fraser superyacht fleet. Writer Felix Milns caught up with him to find out about a chef’s life on board and his favourite Mediterranean foodie port of call, Sicily.
68 – Wine Love
“I’m in the fortunate position that I can afford to drink well for the rest of my life – I never want to
risk having a poor bottle of wine again. Can you help?” Requests like this are not uncommon for master of wine Rod Smith from Vins Sans Frontières. Naturally he is happy to oblige.
72 – A day on deck

94 – Fortunes and Fortunate
Walking the docks of the Yas Island marina in Abu Dhabi, Martin Redmayne was beckoned by a friend to step aboard motoryacht Trident. He was introduced to a gathering of immaculately dressed Frenchmen and stunning women, surrounded by a discreet, Gurkha-style security team. In the upper main salon, on display in high-security cabinets and draped around the necks of the women, was the latest collection of jewels by Louis Vuitton – L’Ame du Voyage (The Soul of the Trip).
