It sometimes takes a few weeks after a long break at Christmas to find fifth gear. Like turning over an old two-stroke, you need a few starts before the growl. The absolute worst thing you can do in this period of grinding gear changes is to engage in any way with LinkedIn, where, unlike Instagram, narcissism comes besuited instead of bikinied. I have no doubt you do get up at 5.30am, call Tokyo, exercise for three hours, eat 12 boiled eggs and have the most productive day any human being has ever had, but, I beg you: shut up. These people clearly don’t have young children, where you wake up after three snoozes, kick the kids out of their beds, throw toast at anyone under 5ft tall and start screaming at them to find their shoes. “Where are your shoes? WHERE ARE YOUR SHOES?” I write this very aware that I urgently need to get my oil up to temperature. The first big BOAT International event of the year is a week away as I type: the peerless Superyacht Design Festival, where we take Monaco and stick it up a mountain in Austria. It’s at this event that we also stage the BOAT International Design & Innovation Awards and one of my favourite competitions: Young Designer of the Year. What’s so gratifying is seeing old winners of this competition return to the SDF in the employ of amazing design studios. It really is a ticket to a fantastic job. From February things go crazy: events, meetings and travel nonstop for six months, so I don’t feel too bad that I’m idling a little. I’m just making sure there’s enough fuel in the tank.
