Networking success for yachting community!

Despite many crew being in the Caribbean and many readers and business owners being on holiday, we bravely persisted with our second Islander New Issue Party at Santina Harbour Club, Puerto Portals on 2nd January. We are determined to hold this networking event on the first working day of every month from 5-7 pm; the next ones being on 1 February and 1 March at Santina. In April there will be a change of venue. Watch this space!

We realised two things at the January INIP; the first was that our community truly welcomes this initiative. Despite the awkward date, about 45 people once again showed up with great enthusiasm and engaged in quality conversation. The other is that at a networking event, it’s all about the quality of people. Even if 5 people out of our community show up -whether crew, readers or advertisers- new ideas and new connections will always be forged.
