On the record

No panels of platitudes. Decisions, in the room, out loud.

For more than two decades Mare Forum has chaired the conversations the industry can’t have anywhere else — decarbonisation economics, the cost of capital, the next generation of yachts and the people who’ll build them.

What delegates say

The Cayman Registry has partnered with Mare Forum across its Super Yacht series for years, in Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and Monaco, and I keep coming back for one reason: the conversation is real. Mare Forum puts flag states, builders, owners' representatives, lawyers, class and finance in the same room and lets them argue the issues that actually shape our industry, from yacht codes and crew welfare to decarbonisation and new technology. As a registry that has served yachting since 1903, listening to the market is how we keep our standards and our service relevant. Mare Forum is one of the best places I know to do exactly that.
Joel Walton
CEO, Maritime Authority of the Cayman Islands
Visiting Mare Forum for about 25 years and not only for the great locations that it is held in. Meeting knowledgeable, experienced people who can disapprove, nuance, or encourage our crazy ideas is of great importance for our decisions.
Geert Dokter
CEO, Conoship International BV
I am pleased to participate in the Mare Forums, where today's maritime leaders connect with tomorrow's innovators, generating meaningful impact for the global maritime industry through open dialogue and bold thinking. It is a fast-paced, high-level debating arena where top minds dive into real issues – openly, honestly and interactively.
Antonios Faraklas
Managing Director, Chartworld Shipping Corporation
For me, Mare Forum has always been more than an event; it is a living network of people who challenge, inspire, and connect. Its conversations remain among the few that consistently look beyond the horizon — shaping not only where our industry is going, but how we choose to get there.
