United Seasports was established in 1981 by Gorm Pedersen Scanlon (Manager World Tourist/Wagons Lits Travel Denmark), Rud Christiansen (CBC Marina) and Ted B. Knapp (Manager Paddans Travel Bureau Sweden) and was the Sole Agent in Europe, Scandinavia and Finland for The Moorings USA. We had our own office in Denmark and Sweden as well as Tortola in The British Virgin Islands. Yearly turnover was from the beginning euro 3,5 million and this increased over the years to euro 5,5 million.
