Megayacht News Vidcasts Launched

Yacht enthusiasts have a new way to learn what is going on in the luxury-yacht market, specifically power and sailing yachts measuring 80 feet on up to more than 400 feet. Content from Megayacht News, found at www.megayachtnews.org, is selected and transformed into video segments, airing as the two- to three-minute "Megayacht Report." The next vidcast will air Monday, October 13. Megayacht News is the first and only partner for TheBoaters.tv for information about this market. TheBoaters.tv features boating news, tips, boat reviews, and the latest in boat gadgets and gear.

The vidcasts can be seen on YouTube as well as TheBoaters.tv.

Diane M. Byrne, owner and editor of Megayacht News and a 15-year veteran of marine journalism, said, "Megayacht News has been embraced since day one by yacht enthusiasts and industry members alike, so it just made sense to expand into video. I'm pleased to be working with TheBoaters.tv on this exciting new venture."

Launched in 2007, it has quickly become a leading source of information about new launches, design proposals, luxury yachting events, crew hiring and placement, and other important news for owners, their representatives, yacht builders, designers, and other industry members.

Megayacht News was named to The Helium Report's (now Halogen Guides') best yacht blogs list, and it's been referenced by The Wall Street Journal, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, and others.

The owner and editor of Megayacht News is Diane M. Byrne, who, through articles for Power & Motoryacht magazine and others, has been covering megayachts since 1993. She is regularly quoted for commentary about the marine industry by media outlets worldwide, including CNBC, ABC News, Reuters, the Associated Press, The New York Times, The Sunday Times (UK), Fortune, and Forbes.
