"Colin Squire Publishing is one of the best companies I have worked
with. Yachting Matters is not just a magazine but more than that.
I sincerely believe that it's because of the personal touch of Colin
who is aware of what's going on in the market through his great
network within the yachting segment. Since our cooperation
with CSP, we have witnessed a remarkable improvement in
our business, especially in the segment of Megayachts. We are
looking forward to sustain and develop this cooperation."

YachtFile packs for over 10 years now to promote our Awlgrip
range. The advantage of working with Yachting Matters is that
we know where the magazines are delivered so that the ROI
(Return On Investment) is much more concrete compared to
other publications. Colin's knowledge of the market and personal
touch combined with the premium quality of the magazine, is
a perfect fit for Awlgrip and reflects our own brand values"

magazine consistently over this period to access the Captains
and Owners of Superyachts which are essentially the clients
of our company. We have always had good, honest and
knowledgeable service and have found Colin and Karen a
pleasure to work with. We would without doubt be happy
to recommend them to any company looking for a media
outlet that targets the Superyacht industry so well."
Francesco Luise, Managing Partner / J. Luise & Sons Ltd
"I'd say my heartfelt thanks for the hard work Colin has done
over the past years for our group of companies in Italy, The Luise
Group. I believe we were among the companies joining at the very
beginnings of the YachtFile pack way back in 1994 and we still
use it every year! Both YachtFile and Yachting Matters have given
us invaluable support over the years, including a very pivotal
moment when we decided to re-launch our image to the yachting
market. We have without doubt over the years gained extremely
positive exposure from both Yachting Matters and YachtFile."

Icon Connect
"When I entered the yachting industry 15 years ago with Icon
Connect, there is no doubt that I had little idea of the enormity
and extraordinary nature of this wonderful industry. I was
introduced to Colin's magazine Yachting Matters very early on and
very quickly it became my reference point for a clear and concise
view of what's going on across this industry sector. The fact that it
is uncluttered with adverts, it is factual and gives not just me as
a supplier a perspective, but an Owner, Captain, Crew and other
journalist can to this day pick the magazine up and instantly
understand it's content. The images are always incredible and I am
grateful to Colin for allowing us to use his occasionally in our own
material. Colin has be a great source of help and inspiration to me
in my journey and I cannot recommend his publication enough. "
Duncan Sweet, Director / Mid Atlantic Yacht Services

a uniquely focused way which others struggle to replicate."
