EDITOR’S LETTER TEAM + COVER

IT’S BOAT SHOW TIME AGAIN.

This is always exciting for us as not only do we get to promote the globally renowned Sanctuary Cove International Boat Show, we also celebrate the anniversary of the very first edition of the magazine … that was 15 years ago now and we are still setting the benchmark in quality, design and market reach.

Speaking of benchmarks (and Boat Show), the first of our two City Icons in this issue is Sanctuary Cove stalwart Barry Jenkins.

Barry is very well regarded within the marine industry but did you know he is also an accomplished piano player and was once in charge of serving dinner to the Queen? You can read all about his long and interesting career on page 30.

Our second Icon is local businessman and self-confessed Chief Encouragement Office for the Gold Coast Vinnies CEO Sleepout, Colin Wheeler.

Colin has been involved with this worthwhile charity for many years and is asking for the community’s help in supporting the 2022 event.

The iconic profiles continue with our feature interviewee, Jennifer Lopez.

The all singing, all acting performer shares some fascinating insights into her latest movie role, her run-ins with social media and her love of rom-coms.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a ‘Wheels and Water’ edition without some racy sportscars.

We have a couple of classics for you to choose from as Chris takes the new Chevrolet Corvette and Aston Martin Valhalla for a spin.

He also showcases the 2022 World Car of the Year and breaks down the research behind the current spike in car prices.

If you are a visitor to the Gold Coast, or simply a local looking to up or downsize your home, be sure to check out the everpopular Property Portfolio section.

Here you will find the latest market updates, developer news and groundbreaking projects, along with a selection of stunning homes from Hope Island in the north to Coolangatta and beyond down south.

Finally, if you have taken a liking to the nautically-inspired outfits showcased on the cover, our friends at Tommy Bahama are giving one lucky reader a $500 gift voucher to spend in store.
