Branded yachts in your design
Every yacht in the flotilla gets a sail cover, a windbreaker and cockpit stickers in your brand book. A CAD mockup 7 days before the trip, production at an EU-certified printer.
For Sales
Corporate yachting for Sales teams.
A sales kickoff and incentive programmes that move the pipeline, not just the mood. A leaderboard tied to KPIs; a branded fleet; a top-3 recognition format ready for a LinkedIn post.
Your headache
Four pains we hear from CROs and VPs of Sales.
- №01
Quota is closed by the same 18% of people — you need an incentive mechanic that lifts the middle of the ranking, not one that doubles down on the top-3 bonus.
- №02
The sales kickoff turns into a three-hour presentation with pizza in the open office. Energy is at zero and reps leave without a new picture.
- №03
Top performers are tired of a bottle of wine as an award — you need an incentive they will tell their LinkedIn network about and that pulls in a candidate pipeline.
- №04
Customer entertainment has been reduced to a dinner in a premium restaurant — competitors offer the same, and the client's NPS doesn't move.
How we solve it
An incentive as a product, not as a dinner.
A sales incentive breaks down where a link to results is replaced by a link to the calendar. A bottle of wine for the 'best quarterly numbers' is a zero signal to the rest of the team. We build the mechanic so that taking part in the flotilla regatta requires concrete metrics: deal velocity, expansion rate, top-of-funnel discipline. RevOps takes the baseline 30 days before the trip; on site the leaderboard combines regatta points with progress against KPIs. The winners get not a 'prize' but recognition that reads in a LinkedIn feed.
A sales kickoff on the water delivers the energy an open office with pizza never will. Branded yachts with a custom sail cover, a welcome pack in a branded duffel, a captain's briefing in a team stand-up style, customer entertainment with an NDA mode for strategic clients. Each yacht is a cross-functional pod: BDR/SDR plus AE plus AM plus sales engineering on one boat, 4-6 people, with the right tenure-versus-region matrix. By the end of the regatta people know each other by name and by pipeline number.
The top-3 recognition is built for modern sales marketing. The photographer works 24/7, the photo opportunity for the three award tiers is assembled within 24 hours of the dinner — in three formats (square for LinkedIn, vertical for Instagram Reels, horizontal for the all-hands video). A cash-equivalent alternative is written into the incentive policy for those who can't go on the water. After 60 days we come back with an attribution survey: the average pipeline lift is 18%, median participation 92% of reps.
What you get
Five deliverables for a sales kickoff.
Kickoff materials in a box
A welcome pack for every participant: a branded duffel, a printed folder on the quarter targets, a performance dashboard in print, a sailing handbook from the skipper.
A leaderboard with live scoring
Through the regatta — a leaderboard on the teams' iPads plus a projection at the closing dinner. Scoring is tied to sales metrics (deal velocity, expansion rate, NRR), not just to the yacht's sailing performance.
A top-3 recognition format
Three award tiers at dinner: a trophy for the best BD, a watch-class prize for the best AE, a voyage credit for the top team next year. The photo opportunity is ready for LinkedIn with no extra editing.
Partner gifts for customer entertainment
If you invite key clients on board, a personal gift box is assembled for each: a branded grain-leather notebook, a nautical chart of their stretch, a signed letter from the CEO.

Cases
What sales teams achieved.
Series-C SaaS — annual sales kickoff, Ibiza
120 reps, two days of regatta plus one day to close the quarter. After 60 days, a record quarter for new logos; attribution via an anonymous survey: 71% linked the kickoff energy to their own activity.
An enterprise BD team — customer event, Cannes
40 key clients across 8 yachts, with BD reps matched to strategic accounts. On day three, two upsell deals were signed on the berth.
FAQ for Sales
What CROs ask most often.
How is scoring tied to sales metrics?
Together with your RevOps team we set 3 KPIs before the trip (deal velocity, expansion rate, NRR, for example). The baseline is a snapshot taken 30 days before. The leaderboard during the regatta combines regatta points with progress against KPIs — the final rank at dinner brings both lines together.
Is the format for closers only, or for all sales functions?
For both. A standard flotilla has the BDR/SDR team on some boats and AE/AM on others, plus cross-team exercises on day four. There are cases from post-Series-A teams (15 people) to an enterprise sales org (200+).
Can we invite key clients on board?
Yes, and many do. The customer-entertainment mode: a key client matched to a BD/AE on one boat, partner gifts in a box, an NDA for the crew if prospects are discussed. €2.4M was signed on the berth in one of our cases.
What if a top performer doesn't want to sail?
A cash-equivalent alternative is written into the incentive policy: the voyage credit converts into a travel credit of the same value through our travel partner. By our numbers across 247 offsites, 4 people chose cash and the rest came.
Do we get content for a LinkedIn post?
Yes. A professional photographer and a video reporter are included in the kickoff package. The top-3 photo opportunity is ready within 24 hours of the dinner (edited to your brand book, square and horizontal versions). One of our top-3 winners drew 4,200 likes on LinkedIn three months on.
