Boat International Media is pleased to announce another exciting addition to its event calendar for 2008; The Boat International Media Superyacht Design Symposium. This symposium is titled Designing the Impossible and will be the first of a series of high level, owner driven, design focused superyacht events.
Held on the 27th and 28th of October 2008 in New York City, we have an exciting two day programme of lively presentation and debate under the title of Designing the Impossible , offering a range of up to the minute topics that will not only be of interest to all delegates, but will also provide the opportunity to positively influence future projects.
The symposium is aimed at owners, potential owners, designers, naval architects, project managers and captains involved in new build projects.
