We believe we are better together, and by cultivating long-term relationships across all sectors, we will leave a lasting LEGASEA.
“We were thrilled to welcome She of the Sea co-founders Jenny Matthews and Natasha Ambrose to REV Ocean to learn about their experience in the yachting industry and what drove them to start this initiative. It was an opportunity for us to take a critical look at our operations and our ambitions. The open dialogue about the challenges we may face in ensuring diversity in recruitment in the maritime sector, and tips on how we can all contribute to solutions, will help us continue our engagement for and commitment to diversity"
