Public officials and important industry players and exhibitors welcomed the success of the second Olympic Yacht Show.
Last year’s belief that the OYS would become an institution capable of strengthening the yachting industry and highlighting quality tourism, came true this year based on the testimonies of public officials and important industry players and exhibitors who welcomed the success of the second event, placing the Olympic Yacht Show on the list of the top yachting events in Europe.
LEFTERIS AVGENAKIS DEPUTY MINISTER OF CULTURE AND SPORTS
With its primordial relationship with the water and the waves, Greece boasts an endless coastline with thousands of islands and seas that rank among the best in the world. This year’s Olympic Yacht Show has rightly attracted the interest of the international Yachting community, bringing together the professionals in the sector and helping the further development of the industry. It contributes to and, at the same time, strengthens our national economic goals, as Yachting is one of the cornerstones of sea tourism.
DIMITRIS KYRIAZAKOS MANAGING DIRECTOR, EKKA YACHTS
The success of the show and the difficulties that still lie ahead for a prestigious event to gain traction were both underscored during the second year of the event. It is vital that the momentum is maintained by long-term initiatives as the industry coalesces around this gathering place and people are beginning to appreciate the value it represents. Thank you for making the event a success.
GERASIMOS PETRATOS CEO, TECHNOHULL
It has been a great pleasure to participate in the 2nd Olympic Yacht Show which was an exhibition of international standards that exceeded even the highest expectations of both exhibitors and visitors. Being committed to supporting initiatives that bring together the world of yachting and promote the Greek yachting industry, the people of Technohull very much look forward to the next Olympic Yacht Show.

This year’s event made it clear that the industry needs it; it should gain the status of an institution and it should be developed and improved continuously! Congratulations to the organizers! We look forward to the 3rd OYS!

The warmest congratulations go to the On-Deck team for the management and support of this event. We will be there to watch this event grow and evolve.

It was a great pleasure for EVAL to participate in the second Olympic Yacht Show, a premium in – water show, an important event and meeting for all the people that love Greek Yachting.
