This is sad news that came to us from the Caribbean last week.

Paul Heys, president of the famous British broker Heys Yachting (Hamble Point Marina, Hamble), importer of French catamarans Nautitech - of which he is one of the largest distributors in the world - and sailboats J Boats and Tofinou (Latitude 46) died diving while on vacation with his family.

Forever, passionate and human, Paul Heys has been admired by all. A great boating professional, he has made his company one of the most important players in the world of sailing.

His brutal disappearance leaves a devastated family, including his French wife Marie-Claude, his children and grandchildren, as well as all the employees of his company.
