Peters & May is excited to announce the continuation of its successful partnership with Hugo Stinnes Schiffahrt GmbH (since 2017 part of the MACS Maritime Carrier Shipping group), a respected name in the maritime industry known for its Atlantic Liner Services and global tramp operations.
Following an impressive first year, both parties have agreed to continue their collaboration through to the end of Q1/2025.
Building on the success of the first year of this alliance, which included two highly popular Northern Europe to Caribbean sailings in Q1 and Q2 of 2024, as well as the return voyage back to Northern Europe, this extension ensures that the essential monthly sailings will continue, which will be especially important during the peak seasonal months between November and May.
Despite being in its early stages, the collaboration has already made a significant impact, addressing the growing demand for yacht transportation between Europe and the Caribbean by improving route accessibility and convenience.
Port stops include Antwerp, Bremen, Southampton, Antigua, Fort Lauderdale, and Newport.
“Quality assurance is always a priority at Peters & May and we take great pride in cooperating with reliable partners with the same approach to shipping.” says Kyle Morant, Shipbroking Manager at Peters & May.
“With their flexible concept and lifting capacities for yachts up to 300tons weight, the liner service of Hugo Stinnes is playing a key role in our service concept.”
Steffen Wiegratz, Line Manager of the Stinnes Transatlantic Service, adds, “We are very pleased to see this cooperation continue. Based on the experiences made together – not just between Europe and the Caribbean, but also involving the whole MACS group with their Atlantic liner services – it was a logical step to proceed with this successful business model.”
So far, the partnership between Peters & May and STINNES has proven to be a powerful combination, meeting the growing needs of the yacht transportation industry and enhancing the overall client experience.
As the partnership moves forward, both companies remain committed to delivering secure, efficient, and reliable shipping services, ensuring smooth connectivity to key yachting destinations while also simplifying the logistical challenges many yacht owners often face with transatlantic shipments.
