Key Northrop & Johnson clients have a host of new luxury-lifestyle benefits available. The experiences usually exclusive to IGY Marinas’ owners-membership program are open to them thanks to a new partnership.
The benefit is for limited customers. Specifically, those who bought a yacht after May 1 of last year through Northrop & Johnson, have an active central agency for sale or charter through the company, or are a yacht-management client can take advantage.
IGY Marinas, with 23 properties across 12 countries, caters to both homeported and transient yachts and superyachts. It offers its loyal customers a membership program called IGY Trident, which the partnership taps into, too. Benefitting owners, their captains, their crew, and even their management teams, IGY Trident brings together a suite of services. For instance, they include agency-support services from BWA Yachting, plus discounted fuel supply worldwide paired with carbon-offset credits. Another benefit is crew-service training by Forbes Travel Guide, well-respected for high-end hospitality training. (Forbes Travel Guide provides individual crew and the yacht with completion certificates to display and promote as well.)
Additionally, Northrop & Johnson customers can work with the Trident Concierge team. These professionals tailor itineraries and experiences for IGY-hosted events. Many of the events coincide with high-profile events themselves. For instance, the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami is one, with others including Art Basel in Miami and the Cannes Film Festival in France. IGY has a private suite for the Formula 1 race, and some Art Basel events take place at its Yacht Haven Grande marina in Miami. It further has the Vieux-Port de Cannes marina in Cannes, France.
“Everyone at Northrop & Johnson is thrilled to now be a part of this unique synergistic relationship with the only global superyacht marina network,” says Daniel Ziriakus, president and CEO.
The two companies are actually sister companies, though they operate independently. MarineMax acquired IGY Marinas last year, while Northrop & Johnson became part of MarineMax in 2020.
