Ten years before yacht channels became a genre, Paul produced one of the first independent yacht-industry video series. The Yacht Channel runs as a working sales-and-education platform — not a paid placement vehicle for shipyard advertorial.
We do not accept payment for vessel features. If a vessel appears on the channel, it is because we believe she belongs there. Working relationships are disclosed in the video description; sponsored content is not part of the model.
This is unusual in the modern yacht media landscape. Most channels and magazines run on the same revenue model: builders and brokers pay for placement, and the editorial position bends to fit. We deliberately built The Yacht Channel without that revenue source. Our channel income comes from YouTube ad share and Xplorer Yachts brokerage commissions earned on transactions where our coverage helped move the principal toward a decision.
Commentary in Forbes, Yachting Magazine, Boat International, and the wider industry press. Forbes recognised one of Paul’s early podcasts as among the first online yacht industry podcasts. Paul is a WGA-affiliated screenwriter and documentary filmmaker (IMDB: nm0534631).
Paul is available for panels, podcasts, and editorial commentary on expedition yachts, commercial-to-yacht conversion, wind-powered superyachts, SeaKeepers yacht donation, and the broader yacht industry. Contact directly via the contact page.
