In this week's Big BOAT Interview, Stewart sits down with Ian Howcroft, captain of the legendary Lurssen Phoenix 2, which is currently in Barcelona undergoing a refit. Ian talks about what it's like to command such a large yacht, how he got his start on superyachts, his secrets to keeping great crew and offers some tips on navigating the St Barths "parking lot" on New Year's Eve.
