Superyacht concierge and marine agency services provider, BWA Yachting, has launched the latest addition to its worldwide network, with the launch of BWA Yachting New England.
Based in the Newport Shipyard, the new office is located in a strategic hub for cruising and infrastructure. The New England region offers good shipyards, marina facilities and popular locations including Rhode Island. The latter is also the optimum preparation and embarkation point to the outlying areas of Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard and Block Island.
The office will be headed up by Kristi Chesher, who has recently joined BWA.
Chesher's previous roles include owner and operator of CCS Newport. She has cumulatively almost two decades of superyacht industry experience gained in Antigua, where she managed Caribbean Concierge Services (CCS) and the AYC Marina. She is also researcher and writer on New England and Bermuda for the Superyacht Services Guide.
“Kristi has a tremendous amount of experience in the industry. We are very pleased to welcome her to the group and to be able to offer services now in this strategic area of the Northeast,” said Stefano Tositti, CEO of BWA Yachting.
Chesher added, “After founding and managing CCS Newport for five years, I am very pleased to join the BWA group, and looking forward to the synergies and benefits that the BWA organization brings to the yachting industry. Having been committed to providing the highest quality services within our industry, I am excited for the growth that BWA will bring to the New England region.”
