HELM offers curated yacht charters across worldwide destinations, with a particular expertise in Mediterranean catamaran charters.

Last summer HELM recorded an exponential rise in clientele from the US, with the American market accounting for almost a third of its clients.

Co-Founder of HELM Peter Harrison says: "After 2022's incredible summer for charter bookings we were anticipating a slow downturn this year, however, it has picked up again and since May we've been busier than ever with clients looking for a last-minute getaway in the med.

"Just this weekend we've had over 100 enquiries! And with more yachts available than last year, we're seeing some crazy discounts on yachts with owner's keen to get bookings for the season".
