Issue 08

For TIDE’s eighth and two-year anniversary issue we explore the seafarer’s dream location of French Polynesia, including long-standing hidden gem Teti’aroa, an atoll that delighted Marlon Brando so much he quickly chose to call it home. We check into The Brando, the hotel he helped devise, and which continues to set ecotourism standards today. Elsewhere, we spend a calm afternoon sailing off Antigua with the owners of two yachts from go-to Dutch designers Dykstra and Hoek, have a tour around legendary designer Malcolm McKeon’s new studio and cruise 107′ Ribelle, one of his creations, as well as look back at one of Perini Navi’s big distinctive boats, Asahi – plus much, much more.

C’est juste doré!
