DNV GL Sponsors Sailing Yacht, Broader View Hamburg
Hamburg’s shipping and sailing community came together at the city’s yacht harbour today, as DNV GL and Hamburgischer Verein Seefahrt (HVS) christened the offshore racing yacht “Broader View Hamburg”. The classification society has taken up the sponsorship of the Andrews 56 vessel to support and encourage more young people to develop their interest in ocean sailing and maritime topics in general. The “Broader View Hamburg” is used for training purposes and takes part in races worldwide. Built by Alan Andrews in 1999, its light frame allows the vessel to sail at speeds of up to 24 knots.
