The Monaco Yacht Show was in fine fettle this year; those working with the largest yachts possessed the biggest smiles.  The aristocrats of the seas were all there with some extraordinarily fine yachts: Royal Huisman, Feadship and Lurssen included.  Joining in that league this year was Oceanco with the largest yacht in the show: the motor yacht ‘Equanimity’ at 91.5 m.  Her technical specification is taken to new heights from Ice Class 1E to the very demanding Passenger Yacht Code – the first superyacht to do so.

Craftsmanship and Coopers Art of Barrels

Craftsmanship and Coopers Art of Barrels

This team of brewery coopers – the last left in Central Europe – build and maintain wooden barrels for Pilsner Urquell, the brewers of the world’s first golden lager in 1842.
