THE USSA AND ITS MISSION

TO PROMOTE AND SUPPORT THE U.S. SUPERYACHT INDUSTRY AND ITS MEMBERS WORLDWIDE THROUGH ADVOCACY, MARKETING AND EDUCATION.

WHAT IS THE UNITED STATES SUPERYACHT ASSOCIATION (USSA)?

WHAT ARE THE OBJECTIVES OF THE USSA?

The U.S. Superyacht Association (USSA) is a non-profit trade association whose newly amended mission is to “Promote and support the U.S. Superyacht industry and its members worldwide through advocacy, marketing and education.”

• To promote members’ products and services through global representation and networking • To advance the superyacht industry in the United States • To serve as a coordinated advocate on major issues affecting the industry

The USSA is made up of a variety of businesses across the United States and around the world that represent thousands of jobs and a tremendous economic impact on our economy.

HOW DID THE USSA GET STARTED?

Over the years, the 12 charter members have worked to grow the USSA to represent the superyacht industry in more than 23 states and 17 foreign countries.

With nearly 350 members, a strong regional focus, a lobbyist in Washington, D.C., and an international “Come SEA U.S.” marketing plan designed to attract more yachts to the United States firmly in place, the USSA is poised to work even harder for the superyacht industry!

The USSA was formed in 2006 in direct response to the lack of a unified voice in the United States for the unique needs of the large yacht segment of the marine industry.

ADVOCACY

36 PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS • United States Coast Guard • Customs and Border Protection • U.S. State Department • U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) • Immigration and Customs Enforcement

THE USSA’S CURRENT ADVOCACY AGENDA WITHIN THESE OBJECTIVES IS: • Extend the duration of the U.S. Cruising Licenses for large recreational vessels from one to two years.

• Increase the maximum gross tonnage of recreational vessels to be able to flag U.S. • Facilitate the access for U.S. recreational shipyards to MARAD grant funds to support and revitalize the U.S. shipbuilding capacity.

• Promote the dredging of channels and waterways that facilitate the ability of superyachts to cruise to our ports and shores.

These efforts of the Advocacy Committee have resulted in raising the visibility of the importance of superyachts to the economy and jobs with key regulators and legislators. All of these agenda items are possible and within reach as long as the industry continues to work together.

To that end, the USSA has provided training and awareness presentations at association meetings such as the Superyacht Summit to both inform and prepare the membership to act in unison on these initiatives. The strength of each individual is strong, but together we are a powerful force.

BY AMI IRA, PRESIDENT OF C.U. YACHT CHARTERS & CREW UNLIMITED

CHARTERING A YACHT? 12 TIPS TO MAKE YOUR DREAM VACATION WORRY FREE! KEY ANSWERS TO THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ABOUT YOUR LUXURY YACHTING HOLIDAY. While chartering a yacht may well be the most luxurious and relaxing vacation imaginable, there are certainly some things that ‘you don’t know, if you don’t know.’

Whether you like surprises or not, no one likes unpleasant surprises, so here we’ve outlined the Top 12 Questions to ask, before you book a charter vacation, and before you book any particular yacht.

1) What costs am I going to be expected to pay, in addition to the charter fee?

Yachts are priced at packages which are either all inclusive, half board, or plus all expenses. For Plus All yachts, the charter fee covers the yacht and the 32 | U.S. WELCOME GUIDE & USSA MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY 2015–2016

crew, and you fund an expense account of an additional 25–35% of the charter fee in advance, called an Advance Provisioning Allowance (APA), which will be used by the crew for fuel, food, beverages, flowers, cruising permits, and your communication costs while on board, which can mean satellite internet costs. You may also be required to pay a negotiated repositioning fee, if the yacht must travel from its home location to your desired port of embarkation. In certain countries, there may be a sales tax or a Value Added Tax of anywhere from 4% to 22% of the charter fee. And, if it’s a high traffic event like the Monaco Grand Prix or Cannes Film Festival where you may

this could present an unforeseen expense, so be sure to ask your broker to confirm

4) How much can we see in a week’s time?

intend to host cocktail parties on board, there may be a refundable damage deposit also required.

2) How much does the fuel cost?

Fuel costs for yachts are typically within 20% of the cost of fuel for your car, but the consumption of each yacht varies greatly, from as little as 10 gallons per hour to as much as 200 gallons per hour.

The yacht’s size, weight, hull shape, and engine horsepower determine its fuel consumption, but the estimate should be in the specifications presented by your broker. To know how much you will spend on fuel, you also need to know the distance your planned itinerary will cover. You then divide the mileage by the speed to calculate the number of hours, then multiply that times the gallons per hour consumed to determine the number of gallons you’ll consume. Then, multiply that times the $ per gallon: M/S = H x GPH = GC x $ G = $C Mileage/speed = hours x gallons per hour = gallons consumed x $ per gallon = $ consumed

3) Does the boat have Wifi?

Each yacht’s owner makes the decision as to what communication plan he supplies for the yacht, so it’s important here to read the specifications provided by the charter broker, which are provided by the owner’s agent to the broker. If you intend to use the yacht’s internet, or have children that may forget to log off a music or game site,

The amount of area you cover comes down to your pace, the yacht’s cruising speed, and the sea conditions. For the optimal charter, you won’t plan on cruising underway more than 4-6 hours per day, and unless there are several crew, traveling at night while you sleep is not likely to happen. The reason you don’t want to be underway more than 6 hours a day is simply because it isn’t that relaxing to be in motion constantly, and if the seas are rough, it can be even more tiring. A better plan is to let the Captain suggest an itinerary that he has done before, and so knows all the best places to go and see, and take it slow so that you are reenergized, not worn out, after your holiday.

5) How will we know where the boat is?

Your charter broker, as soon as the contract is executed, will introduce you by phone and email to the Captain so that you both have contact information for one another.

Your Captain, or appointed crew member, should meet you at the airport to greet you with minivans organized for yourself and for your luggage, and safely escort you to the yacht. Your broker will also stay in the loop of communication between you and the Captain, so that as a team, she/he and the crew make sure to deliver the vacation you’ve been dreaming about.

EVERY SINGLE CHARTER IS CUSTOMIZED TO THE CHARTERER’S PREFERENCES, WHICH ARE SPELLED OUT MONTHS PRIOR TO COMING ON BOARD,

BY FILLING OUT A COMPREHENSIVE LIKES AND DISLIKES FORM PRESENTED BY YOUR BROKER, FOR SHARING WITH THE CREW.

6) What if the boat isn’t as nice as the pictures?

Yachts require full-time dedicated attention to maintenance, and a yacht that seldom gets used deteriorates while no one notices, until charter guests are on board and the little smells start to permeate the air, and the electronics fail when you are depending on them, among other unpleasant surprises. Malfunctions can happen on any yacht, but to ensure against them happening while you’re on board, ask your broker only to present options which they’ve personally inspected

U.S. WELCOME GUIDE & USSA MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY 2015–2016 | 33

EDITORIAL

THE REASON YOU DON’T WANT TO BE UNDERWAY MORE THAN 6 HOURS A DAY IS SIMPLY BECAUSE IT ISN’T THAT RELAXING TO BE IN MOTION CONSTANTLY, AND IF THE SEAS ARE ROUGH, IT CAN BE EVEN MORE TIRING.

recently and know to be a professionally run charter program, not someone’s boat that the owner has given up on selling and which was otherwise mothballed. Book with a reputable broker who knows the boats she’s recommending, preferably ones with previous guest testimonials.

7) What if we don’t feel safe with the crew?

The crew are there first and foremost, in service of the vessel, to make sure that everyone, and the vessel, is safe.

The occurrence where a charter guest has been harmed by the crew or by a local is so rare that in 22 years, I’ve never heard of it happening even once.

Your Captain’s livelihood depends on his Maritime License, which would be immediately suspended following any illegal activity, so he is not inclined to break any rules. Having said that, if you ever see or suspect your crew of something that makes you feel uncomfortable in any way, call your broker immediately to make them aware, and then follow up by email to keep a paper trail. If you feel they are putting you or your family in danger, go immediately to the Port Authority or Dockmaster’s office and get them involved locally. While in any port, it is the local authorities who have ultimate jurisdiction, no matter the flag of the vessel.

34 | U.S. WELCOME GUIDE & USSA MEMBERSHIP DIRECTORY 2015–2016

8) What is a typical route for a charter?

Typically, yachts charter for a full week, seven nights from noon to noon, and start and finish in the same port. There are a few more common charter itineraries, like Newport to Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Block Island, or from Nassau through the Exumas and back, or St. Maarten through the French West Indies, or the BVI’s, or the French Riviera, or the Amalfi Coast with Capri and Naples, … but yachts are mobile so they can all tailor a specific itinerary for the amount of time you have available, in the area you want to see. They are not operated like cruise ships with a set schedule. Every single charter is customized to the charterer’s preferences, which are spelled out months prior to coming on board, by filling out a comprehensive likes and dislikes form presented by your broker, for sharing with the crew.

9) How do we know the crew will spend our APA account responsibly?

Depending on the way the Captain manages the yacht, he may give the Chef a set amount to spend on food to satisfy your preferences, or he may give him carte blanche. It’s up to you to inform your broker of any limits you want to impose, so that she can advise the Captain and Chef, so that you are not presented with an expense account that’s

Bear in mind, though, that the transient nature of yachts means that provisions often must be flown to meet the yacht, especially for fresh organic produce or challenging wines, often making the prices higher than if you were shopping at your own local grocer.

10) Can we do everything the owner would do when we’re on board?

Within reason, and within the limits of the law, yes, you are to be treated as if you ARE the owner, while you’re on board.

Does that mean you can have big parties and invite all the staff from the club after?

Maybe, maybe not. The Captain, who is responsible for your safety as well as that of his crew, may intervene, or he may join in. Ultimately, the yacht belongs to someone, and the Captain is employed by that someone, so it’s the owner’s final say as to how he will allow his yacht to be used. If the contract specifies 12 guests maximum, then you are legally restricted to 12 guests maximum, and that applies dockside as well as underway. So, if you have plans or desires to have additional guests on board, you must prearrange it through your broker, and make sure it’s included as a side note on the contract or in the special conditions section.

11) What if our plans change and we can’t go after all?

All charter contracts are written to favor the owner of the yacht, and the

cancellation terms of each of them make it impossible to get out without losing some or all of your money. The amount of time remaining before your charter determines what percentage of your funds you would be entitled to receive back in case of cancellation, with less time available to re-book the time meaning less money due back to you as a refund.

So, my recommendation is to take out the trip cancellation or interruption insurance offered by your broker, which will put your mind at ease immediately, knowing that even if you have to get off in the middle of your trip due to an emergency at home, you won’t lose your holiday and the money you paid for it!

12) What kind of responsibility am I taking on when I charter a yacht?

There are two kinds of charter contracts used inside the US. Bareboat (also known as Demise, and which ALL foreign flagged yachts must use inside US waters) or Commercial, also known as a Time and Voyage agreement. Booking a yacht using the Bareboat Demise Agreement means that you, the charter guests, are assuming full control and responsibility for the yacht and her crew. That means you should protect yourself by purchasing Charterer's Liability insurance, in case of any accident or negligence. Booking using a commercial agreement is more like buying an airplane, in that you are a paying passenger, and the owner retains all responsibility for the performance of the yacht and crew.

The “DISC” provisions of the Tax Code give sellers of US products used outside the US a special tax benefit.

It is an “exporter” tax break but DISC users do not have to ship the product overseas. Selling to superyachts in port in Florida typically is an “export.” The benefit is an increase of 17% or more in the after-tax income from export sales. The DISC program benefit is easily obtained by making the arrangements specified in the Tax Code. Every seller of US products used outside the US should be taking advantage of a DISC program to increase their after-tax income. The Export Sales Specialist provides separate DISC-qualified commission corporations and all of the arrangements. Exporter pays for the corporation by sharing part of the money in the first year that the exporter would have paid the IRS but by using the DISC program will not pay in taxes.

Using one of the available pre-qualified commission corporations exporters obtain the tax benefit in respect to all of the current year’s export sales.

Engineered Marine Coatings was founded on the basis bringing to market a more current marine polyurethane system technology that would apply easier, deliver the highest level of gloss and gloss retention, maximize abrasion resistance for marine use and meet current and future environmental guidelines. It is a fact professional applicators in the marine pleasure boat market are not satisfied with the current products available to them.

These same products have been available since the late 1970’s and were difficult to apply then and continue to be difficult to apply to large surfaces like pleasure boats today. If a product is hard to apply, then it is likely to fall short of boat owner expectations in terms of gloss level, smoothness and gloss clarity. This will also contribute to the coating system service life.

CATEGORIES: INSURANCE - MARINE

Novamar Insurance Group employs not just yacht insurance specialists with decades of marine insurance experience, but key management has tens of thousands of miles of yacht racing and cruising experience as well. As lifetime boaters, we appreciate the need to insure against the unpredictability of what the ocean can deliver on any given day. Not to mention properly covering guests and crew while at sea or at the dock.

With so many types of vessels, and the jurisdictional challenges that come with them as they traverse the globe, it is imperative that your yacht insurance broker has the experience to identify exposures and provide insurance solutions. Without comprehensive risk transfer solutions, yacht owners can be at the mercy of Murphy’s Law. When standard market insurance programs fall short, we create our own proprietary programs such as the Novamar Offshore Program or our Racing Sailboat Program. These programs were created by Novamar management to provide our clients with excellent coverages and premiums, filling underserved niches for those cruising or racing their yachts around the world. Whether cruising your motor yacht or racing your sailing yacht internationally or locally, you receive the same expertise and friendly service from our Novamar staff in all of our offices.

For over 15 years, V-KOOL is the leading clear window coating that solves the visibility and appearance problems of conventional window tints and reflective films, while significantly reducing solar heat build up.

V-KOOL technology is based on rejecting heat at the window versus absorbing the heat like ceramics and other film technologies. Independent industry tests show that absorbing technologies add stress to the glass and are less efficient, therefore inferior. When applied to glass, V-KOOL allows up to 70% of visible light to pass eliminating over 96% of infrared and 99% of ultraviolet light. Retrofit your existing windows or apply to your newly constructed windows. V-KOOL, Inc., the exclusive distributor in the western hemisphere, is the clear choice for your need to block the heat while allowing light to pass through. In most cases, applying V-KOOL Window Films is at least half the cost of replacing your windows with high performance glass. Call us to find how big your savings can be!

“The USSA is of tremendous value to me, enabling me to meet more members of our industry and to strengthen the relationships I already enjoy. Equally important, the USSA serves as a respected voice in Washington on behalf of the industry as well as yacht owners and their crew, beating the drum on key issues that might ordinarily go unnoticed. I’ve seen this influence first-hand, able to add my own voice, and that of my readers, to the chorus, too.
