For one afternoon only, Rascal luxury yacht owner Erik Barreto and world renowned Conservation International scientist, Dr. Mark Erdmann will be hosting a unique session to unveil how Rascal offers a new dimension of luxury travel to its private charter experience.

Indonesia's luxury private charter Phinisi, Rascal Voyages, partnered with Conservation International in February 2018 for a high-tech scientific voyage across Raja Ampat – one of the most remote corners of Indonesia's vast archipelago – in a quest to raise awareness for the protection of manta rays within the seas it cruises, and further explore the frontiers of Raja Ampat's biodiversity.

You will be among the first to hear about the exciting and fascinating findings which were the fruit of the scientific expedition to the North of Raja Ampat, a unique epicentre of marine biodiversity. 

Please find the media invitation attached.

Spaces are limited, please RSVP ASAP to pippa@vimandvigourpr.com
