Berthon to sell Challenge Business fleet

By IBI Magazine

Berthon International has announced that it is to serve as the sole UK broker for the entire Challenge Business fleet, which comprises five 67ft David Thomas-designed yachts and thirteen 72ft Rob Humphreys-designed yachts that have participated in the Global Challenge series.

The news follows an earlier report that Challenge Business, a UK-based company founded by Sir Chay Blyth to organise the Global Challenge round-the-world yacht race, has gone into administration. For more details on the demise of Challenge Business, click here.
