Sunny vibes with MASTERS EXPO exhibitor Hendricks Yachting

Hendricks Yachting is back from never being away: the sun is shining, the suitcases are packed and the boats are looking good. Vacationers are planning their vacations again and of course don't turn down a wonderful boat trip. MASTERS Member Peter Hendricks is ready for the new season and with a focus on Ibiza, Dubai, Mikonos, the Netherlands, Croatia and the south of France, Hendricks and his team are almost nowhere to be missed this summer.Text: Mical Joseph

The possibilities

Hendricks Yachting offers something for everyone: whether it is for a group of friends, a fun family day out with children or business oriented, with the comprehensive service everything is taken care of to perfection. "American Express customers also come into Hendricks Yachting, we pick up these requests and charter boats mainly for this particular group in Dubai, France and Ibiza." In addition to the chartered boat, a skipper, sea bob and beverage and lunch arrangements are provided on board. Any jet skis or other water gadgets can of course be arranged upon request. "Some boats, such as the rib boats, can be self-driven by the customer. However, this person must possess a valid boating license II."

This year Hendricks is adding a number of new boats to its offerings: from new Wajers and Vanquishes to the Mangusta and first on the market in Ibiza, the Steeler Bronson 50. In Dubai, Hendricks Yachting charters yachts from Sunseeker, Azimut and Princess Yachts. "Some of my colleagues in Dubai want better quality boats, so we are going to bring some boats from our trade to Dubai for their charters."

The 2021 trend

"An outboard motor is a phenomenon that we are seeing more and more often, but which is not really sought after in Ibiza yet. This is because now all engines are still attached inboard and nicely concealed in the rear part of the boat." The outboard engine is easier to use and if it breaks down, only the engine is replaced and there is no need to break open the entire deck. This construction is very interesting for the charter market and you really only see a lot of it now in Miami and St. Maarten.

Following or creating trends

"Starting next year, it will be possible to take out a membership with some of my partners so that the customer can cruise whenever he or she wants. So you pay for a rides card and can then sail with a selected group on days of your choice." In addition to an exclusive membership, members of the lifestyle & hospitality app JUMPTHE-Q, from MASTERS Member Tom Brokking, can exclusively book boats at Hendricks this coming August. "This is very exclusive, as August is a very difficult month to get last-minute boats at the hotspots."

Entrepreneur's Tip

Hendricks has been chartering yachts for several years in addition to his other shipbuilding business, Hendricks Shipping Group. "I am so extremely happy that I took the step to do this in addition. Chartering the boats, the customer contact and the service really suit me. This is actually also my entrepreneurial tip: do what you are passionate about and undertake what really interests you. We often look at others, the grass is always greener on the other side. Stay close to yourself, because that is what is real."
