Megayacht News Vidcasts Launched
Friday, October 10, 2008

TOTOWA, N.J., Oct. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Megayacht News, the only independent, professionally written, daily-updated blog devoted to megayachts, has launched bi-monthly vidcasts, airing on Mondays, through a partnership with TheBoaters.tv.

Yacht enthusiasts have a new way to learn what is going on in the luxury-yacht market, specifically power and sailing yachts measuring 80 feet on up to more than 400 feet. Content from Megayacht News, found at www.megayachtnews.org, is selected and transformed into video segments, airing as the two- to three-minute "Megayacht Report." The next vidcast will air Monday, October 13. Megayacht News is the first and only partner for TheBoaters.tv for information about this market. TheBoaters.tv features boating news, tips, boat reviews, and the latest in boat gadgets and gear.

The vidcasts can be seen on YouTube as well as TheBoaters.tv.

Diane M. Byrne, owner and editor of Megayacht News and a 15-year veteran of marine journalism, said, "Megayacht News has been embraced since day one by yacht enthusiasts and industry members alike, so it just made sense to expand into video. I'm pleased to be working with TheBoaters.tv on this exciting new venture."
