The Superyacht Report strengthens its editorial team

As The Yacht Report Group strives for excellence in content across it’s print and digital portfolio, we recognise the need to  exclusively employ the most intelligent and knowledgeable journalists and editors on our staff, in order to deliver the finest media products to the superyacht market. In addition to the current expertise in Martin H. Redmayne, Editor-in-Chief, Tork Buckley, Asia Editor, Kenny Wooton, US Editor, Justin Ratcliffe, European Editor and Ellie Brade, Pacific Editor, The Superyacht Report has recently appointed Jason Holtom, as it’s exclusive Superyacht Sailing Editor.

Jason has had a long association with the superyacht business having previously been editor of Boat International and managing editor of The Superyachts Annual, while working alongside our group’s Chairman during their joint time at this major superyacht consumer publishing group. Jason is also an experienced yachtsman who has raced successfully at an international level in both offshore and inshore events including the  America’s Cup, One Ton Cup, Admiral’s Cup, Six Metre and 12 Metre. Jason will also be working on other projects within the group, including the growing number of special publishing projects and Superyacht Intelligence.

His remit for the group is to develop and deliver the finest editorial content for the large sailing yacht market, both in print and on-line. With the increased regatta programmes and our group’s involvement with the Bucket programme and The Superyacht Cup, it makes perfect sense to have an editor dedicated to this expanding market. In addition to covering the latest new sailing projects at the myriad of shipyards, Jason will be highlighting all the emerging technical innovations in sailing yachts including design, rigs, sails, appendages, ratings, management and operation of these incredible yachts.

This is an exciting time for the luxury yacht market as it starts to emerge into a new positive phase, the worldwide market activity is picking up and owners are particularly enjoying the growing number of on the water events with their guests. “The appointment of Jason Holtom is consistent with The Superyacht Report’s and the Group’s commitment to offer our readers access to the expertise of exclusive and knowledgeable editors,” says Editor-in-Chief and Chairman, Martin H. Redmayne.

Having recently attended the Wally Nespresso Cup in Portofino Jason will soon be flying off to Porto Cervo for the Dubois Cup and the Loro Piana Superyacht Regatta organised and hosted by Boat International Media. So if you see him there, welcome him back into the world of expert reporting and make sure you share your views, opinions, perspectives and news. He will be busy for the next few months visiting projects and yards to ensure that we bring our audience the most intelligent and up to date information on what the superyacht sailing yacht world is working on.
