Simon Judson, global operations director at Peters & May, said: \u201cWith our support of Antigua Sailing Week and the ARC we have had 7 sailings out of the Caribbean this season, I\u2019m very proud of the team and with the level of demand for our service at an all-time high, we are already taking bookings for our 2018 sailings!\u201d<\/p>\n
Following arrival of the HHL New York at Southampton, the Peters & May loadmasters reunited the first set of yachts with their owners. The vessel then continued to Bremerhaven, Germany, where the remaining yachts were discharged.<\/p>\n
Ross Applbey, owner of Oyster Lightwave 48 \u2018Scarlet Oyster\u2019, commented: \u201cAfter a busy sailing season in the Caribbean, it is much more relaxing to know we can trust Peters & May to ship her back.\u201d<\/p>\n
