Great Southern Route Superyacht Cruising Guide, 2nd Edition |
Launching at the Monaco Yacht Show, the GSR is the heavyweight gift that is worth its weight in gold. The hefty and much-needed, revolutionary maritime road map for yachts considering a visit to the Antipodes is by Captains for Captains, published by Ocean Media.
The expanded second edition of The Great Southern Route (GSR) superyacht cruising guide will be current for the next two years - 2010/2011. This latest edition will include totally updated Fact Files of key superyacht contacts in some 83 ports and countries across eight regions, book-ended by the two great canals of Suez in the West and Panama in the East.
Including the first-hand advice of over 30 superyacht captains, GSR’s “Captain’s Log” editorial contributions from mariners who have actually cruised these waters offer the benefit of priceless experience. The new edition will now also include countries in South-eastern Africa, the Northern Pacific and the Americas.
The original Great Southern Route (GSR) guide for 2008/9 was hailed a great success receiving many accolades since it was launched to the world at Monaco Yacht Show in September 2007. “GSR” pioneered the ‘captain to captain’ sailing directory approach and we only included companies that were researched and established as bona fide superyacht industry participants, including their details for the benefit of superyacht captains and their yacht owners planning a voyage south of the typical cruising waters of the Mediterranean and Caribbean.
Since publication, GSR has been hand delivered to thousands of superyachts and superyacht industry businesses in the Mediterranean, UK, Florida, New York, California, New Zealand, Australia, Asia, Tahiti, Fiji and many other places.
An additional 1000 copies were mailed directly to superyacht captains worldwide, and over 3000 copies have been distributed at boat shows in Caribbean, Monaco, Ft Lauderdale, St Maarten, Antigua and Düsseldorf.
Distribution achieves penetration to the key decision makers throughout the industry internationally, and has led to much greater interest in cruising further afield.
The Great Southern Route is available free of charge to members of the international superyacht industry and apart from the 300-page hard copy it can also be viewed in page-by-page detail in the digital edition online at www.greatsouthernroute.com or www.oceanmedia.com.au where you can also order a hard copy of the guide.
Destinations along the route are encouraged to send Ocean Media new information regarding your company and region for inclusion in the new edition. You should include information such as names of recent superyachts visiting your country or port, any new websites, publications and new businesses and organisations that you believe warrant inclusion in the Fact File pages.
Companies wishing to advertise or promote through the second edition of GSR should also plan your presence in this important cruising guide. Deadline is 15 July 2009.
