On the one hand, I publish new projects and yachts from shipyards and designers and exciting (new) equipment; on the other hand, the content is curated. Furthermore, I have followed the principle of One Yacht, One Article for some time to collect all the information there, from the announcement to the official photoshoot. That’s why I don’t publish position changes, et cetera. yachtemoceans aspires to be the Digital Coffee Table Book and a source of inspiration – just a place to enjoy pure luxury and floating artworks, the maritime lifestyle and high-end technology in the right environment with a light design and a good user experience.

Digital Coffee Table Book about Yachts

How to be updated about new publications?

As every state-of-the-art media, yachtemoceans has multiple social media channels (@yachtemoceans). The focus is clearly on picture-driven channels like Instagram and Pinterest but also on other channels in use.

Suggestions? Questions? Feel free to send me a digital bottle message

I speak German (my native language), English (second language), and Dutch (more or less at the beginning, but feel free to write in Dutch – every training is welcome).

By the way, I prefer people (or companies) that introduce themself before they put my e-mail address on the standard press mailing list – a simple one-liner is enough :-). You can send e-mails and press releases to rene@yachtemoceans.com.

Information for yacht designers: Please send a media kit containing a project description with main specifications and renderings/photos with a minimum width of 2000 pixels. When it is too large for e-mail, use cloud services/wetransfer.

Note for PR agencies and marketing people:

  • This is not a cheap advertising platform for brokerage companies.
  • We can talk about cooperations that are interesting for both sides.
  • I prefer to work directly with companies - without middlemen (or middlewoman).
  • I don't need any SEO or marketing offers because of professional background skills.

For whom who is interested in background information: Who is the guy behind yachtemoceans?

Ahoy, I’m René Meyer from northern Germany (Oldenburg) – the Editor-in-Chief, founder, tea cooker, server administrator, social media manager, et cetera of yachtemoceans. Or, in the short form: The maid-of-all-work. Suppose you would like to hear a fancy title: Head of Everything.

I grew up with smaller boats (from the optimist to the 11-meter sailing yacht in the family) before I got the “wrong” magazine in my hands where a motor yacht carried a sailing boat on the sundeck. That was the Benetti My Way, owned by the late Herbert Dahm, with the Jongert 25 True Love on the top. I own the 4,20m sailing dinghy Zoé, aka GER 1152.

Although I am related to yachts and sailing, I am not a naval architect, designer, or boat builder. I am trained in business informatics and worked for some years in project management at one of Germany’s top five digital and brand agencies. My main job is as an IT consultant for legal authorities and a senior digital consultant for an advertising and upskilling agency.

My home port is just 40 Kilometers away from the well-known shipyards Abeking & Rasmussen and Lürssen.
