“Have we lost the economic war in the Aegean?” wonders Mr. Antonis Stelliatos, President of Hellenic Professional Yacht Owners Association (EPEST), while he denounces the indifference and disdain of the state for the professional yachting industry.

Specifically, he refers to the non- compliance with the law for the industry, something which results in a huge loss of revenue for Greek government and especially, it makes Greek professional yachting, whose vessels bring Greek flag and employ Greek sailors, uncompetitive.
