When asked what is one of the most important parts of his job Wim replied, “I always try to make sure that I send a familiar face to do the service work.

When asked about composite construction and design Adri will say, “Composite is beautiful, everything is possible. I can build everything out of composite, it is a relatively new material and that makes it fun to work with. There is a lot yet to be discovered.”

Nothing makes me happier than working on, in and around boats. I have spent the past four years working on a degree in marketing, specifically dedicated to the marine industry – it is a career path I am completely committed to. Being young and technically savvy I intend to build the Rondal brand into a leading yachting industry supplier. Gaining the Rondal brand, the recognition it deserves and bringing a new customer to a company that has provided superyacht products to some of the greatest yachts in the world for the past 25 years.

“For me, the balance of life is very important. My role demands that I employ structured working, planning and budgeting methods and focused training to make my projects run like a well-oiled machine. It helps that I can draw on a broad background of technical knowledge and communication techniques to appraise and resolve the challenges. By contrast, then, I love to experience the natural world and visit places where the quality of life is determined by an unhurried, ‘less is more’ culture."
