Burgess Blue Oceans. Driving positive change.

Burgess Blue Oceans

At Burgess we believe in what we do. And we believe in doing it to the best of our abilities. Best practice pervades every aspect of our business and we believe that our approach to sustainability should be no different.

'There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about.'

Margaret Wheatley, 2002

Our company was founded by Nigel Burgess, a renowned solo ocean sailor with an obsessive eye for detail and a love for the sea. We, both collectively and as individuals, are passionate about what we do and seek to share this enthusiasm with both our clients and the wider maritime community.

The health of the world’s oceans is the reason that we are able to work in this exceptional industry but we know that our business has a direct impact on the ocean and the communities that rely on it. We acknowledge that we have a responsibility to reduce that impact and to work to create a more sustainable superyacht industry.

Striving to be an environmentally sound company is more than good business practice: it is the responsibility of industry leaders the world over. The superyacht industry is not going to change overnight but we believe that like-minded people who are driven by the same objective can ensure that this industry uses its collective knowledge, experience and capabilities to become a beacon for technological development and a force for good.

Responsabilité sociale de l'entreprise

Burgess Blue Oceans

Burgess Blue Oceans est une initiative de base lancée par un noyau d'employés de Burgess déterminés à utiliser notre position pour aider l'entreprise – et, espérons-le, à terme, l'industrie du yachting – à réaliser des opérations plus propres et durables dans la mesure du possible. Blue Oceans se concentre sur la propreté des océans, de l’eau propre et de la réduction de la pollution plastique et toutes nos activités sont motivées par ces trois piliers fondamentaux.

Nettoyer notre propre action

Nous travaillons à mettre de l'ordre dans la maison Burgess en sensibilisant l'entreprise à l'environnement et en engageant notre propre équipe pour mener un effort collectif vers des opérations d'entreprise véritablement durables.

Partager et développer les meilleures pratiques à bord

Nous travaillons avec les yachts des flottes gérées par Burgess pour apprendre, comprendre leurs succès et leurs défis à bord, et développer un modèle de meilleures pratiques d'exploitation de yachts durables grâce à une expérience partagée.

Générer des opportunités d’action à l’échelle de l’industrie

Notre troisième objectif est d'unir notre industrie, au-delà du nom et de la marque, et de créer des opportunités pour un plus grand engagement et des activités positives et durables au sein de l'industrie des superyachts et dans l'ensemble de la communauté du yachting.
