SYOG 2013-2014 by yachtingpages

Welcome to SYOG

t has been a considerable pleasure to work as publisher for the Superyacht Owners’ Guide 2013 – 2014. I hope you enjoy it.

Challenging though it is to produce a publication that will be as relevant today as this time next year, there is so much activity in the industry that the biggest demand was choosing what to discuss now and what to leave until next time. Coming from a background in design, I am fascinated by the process involved in taking a superyacht on a journey from conception to completion and have built this publication on the foundation of:

The first article entitled People, Planning and Preparation gives advice on the steps

you need to take when deciding to build a new, or refit an existing superyacht. This starts you on a thoroughly well rounded voyage which guides you through advanced technologies, exceptional interiors, your choice to charter and many more stimulating features. We culminate where all the fun resides; Toys and Tenders, and what fun you can have. I am extremely proud of this edition and the team that has worked on it. I would like to thank Michael and Frances Howorth, our esteemed writing team who bring to you their own legendary expertise, as well as Carlo Baroncini from Fotoarcobaleno studio and photography, Alessandra De Siati Tinucci from Eggzero, Nina Heierhoff and Matthias Voit from Dornbracht, Christine Winans from Pendennis, Alastair Callender from Callender Designs, Juliette Warter from MTN Satellite Communications and numerous leading

industry figures and thought leaders who have supported us on this year’s journey. I hope you enjoy the read and ultimately keep your SYOG as a reference point to aide in your new build or refit project. “Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.“ Harriet Tubman My friends, I give you the Superyacht Owners’ Guide 2013-2014.

People, planning and preparation A stitch in time saves nine – on a superyacht scale. Explore the importance of robust planning for the marine dream

he devil is in the detail. Just because a product is 150m long and boasts a price tag of £300m, that doesn’t detract from the importance of its infinitesimal detail. Each and every millimetre measured, decision taken and person appointed to the team in a superyacht build is of huge significance to the smooth running of the project, which is why the people, planning and preparation involved must be second to none. Bar none.

Surrounded by savvy As with any major investment, it pays to surround yourself with the right people from the outset to help with purchase preparation. Long-range planning is too frequently ignored in favour of instant gratification and ‘getting on with the job’, but creating the right plan should appear first on any aspiring owner’s tick-list. Potential owners who are less well versed in

the business may fail to realise the value of a purchasing plan which will ultimately save them time and money, and can help prevent common pitfalls along the way. Plans do not just happen, they are the product of human input. The better the credentials of the contributor, the greater the plan’s chance of success becomes. The good news is that the superyacht industry is well endowed with experts who can assist the owner with plan creation; ensuring that they are right for the task in hand is by far the trickier part.

Plans do not just happen, they are the product of human input.

To build or buy? The first dilemma in the yacht purchasing process is whether to buy old or new. Starting afresh is the perfect opportunity to create a dream vessel from scratch but if new to the industry, you might not know what is feasible and what is not. Chartering one or two superyacht styles in advance may help with the decisionmaking process. With thousands of models on the market – ranging from custom and semicustom build to full production and everything in between – first-time owners should consider visiting a selection of yards to carry out their own research before a choice is made. Owners seeking to buy a production yacht can rest assured that the building company will have worked with its own chosen designers and naval architects to ensure the yacht is both safe to go to sea and is of a practical nature.

Owners planning their own custom build will need to work closely with both designers and architects, which may or may not be inside the same company.

Shipyards Each shipyard also has its own style, its own production parameters and engineering limitations that need to be taken into account. Whether you decide to refit, rebuild or start anew you will need to make sure that all parties have bought into your plan. There is currently a trend in the superyacht community leaning towards ‘bland’ design. Mirrored in the residential housing market, investors are thinking long term and resale potential is a big factor affecting the superyacht industry. Many new build houses can be described as a ‘Magnolia Mansion’ so that they appeal to the greatest number of potential buyers, similarly many new superyachts are also playing it safe. Owners do not want to break the mould in design terms, sticking to tried and tested layouts and structural prerequisites that have proved popular in the past in case something new or unusual makes the vessel harder to sell in years to come. We at SYOG believe that true design will overcome any mass market preconceptions and encourage potential new owners to be brave, in any design choice. However, if the shipyard's vision does not match your own then there will be problems during the project. Making sure the shipyard is confident in the design you

have chosen and that they are experienced in producing similar vessels is just as important as choosing the correct naval architect. Checking the yard's recent portfolio is a good way to make sure you have made the right choice. Similarly, if you have a preferred designer, broker, architect or owner's rep that you know will be part of your team, then listening to their recommendations can also be a good start. Choosing the right team and shipyard and retaining their skills at an early stage in the build process is essential.

Designing your dreams The correct designer can transform an owner's dream into an exquisite, unique yacht by imagining freedom from their perception, what excites, moves and captures their imagination and what drives his or her spirit. The magic ingredients to any build will be the meeting of minds, identification and a sprinkle of gold dust. Otherwise it simply becomes a commercial process of elimination. Our advice is to meet as many people as time will allow before making any decisions on your supporting cast. By working with a designer you should find that possibilities are opened up to you, thoughts, concepts and exciting risks that you had not even comprehended should be floated past your eyes. An excellent designer will extract dreams from you and turn that into a product that astounds you.

The magic ingredients to any build will be the meeting of minds, identification and a sprinkle of gold dust. Otherwise it simply becomes a commercial process of elimination. If explorer yachts, green yachts or iconic sailing yachts like the Maltese Falcon are your thing, then this can be done. Innovation needs dialogue, partnership and working together to solve problems. It's critical to be open to each othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; perspectives. However, many designers accept the status quo, and will lean towards standard design. They may urge you to be part of a school of yachts modelled on the same concept. This choice is up to you. There is a new generation of designers out there. SYOG has investigated and found that more than ever before owners are fondly working with their home property interior designers. The creative rapport which enables the progression from house to superyacht also allows the designer to

suggest a palette of eclectic ideas which may have been dismissed if suggested by a less familiar face. A good designer will consider the way the owner feels and thinks about space. How feelings about superyacht spaces are affected by the sense of time and occasion. They should suggest that the superyacht itself represents place, a form of security and a space for freedom: we are attached to one and long for the other. Whether they are considering sacred versus ‘biased’ space, mythical space and place, time in experiential space or cultural attachments to space, your designer should bring thoughtful insight to the journey. Diana Scott of Sterling Scott Yacht Designs said, “I ensure that my design nurtures and expresses the owner’s wishes by capturing their vision of comfort, freedom and style by listening, listening and listening to the owner. This cannot be emphasised and expressed enough. Then, once you have listened, listen some more. Only then, once they see you have really taken this on board can you start to let them see your ideas unfold.” The journey and the considerations taken during the design process are varied, starting with a great deal of fleeting inspiration and sketching out of ideas. Time is then spent changing the balances until the design works. Then, once the look has captivated its audience, the general arrangement takes shape which will follow the path of an owner’s wish list. This general arrangement will

undergo many revisions and there will usually be a 3D rendering and presentation phase detailing the specification. This is the time to action any changes and to make sure all parties, including the build partners are completely happy with the design proposal. Only then will it go to build phase. After a thoroughly monitored build process, the yacht is delivered and the owner's dream will have become reality.

A five point plan Andrew Williamson is a project director with Regent Yachts. He explained, “A successful planning process goes through five stages. Once the owner has agreed with their designer which design of yacht they want, the first stage is to decide its specifications. A thorough General Arrangement Plan (GAP) and Build Specification review is vital before the build contract is signed, to avoid expensive change orders later. “The second stage is for the builder to analyse the interdependencies between the activities during construction. Thirdly, the builder will specify the time and money required, based on cost of equipment, manpower and overheads, to build the yacht. The fourth stage requires the builder to schedule the plan, based on lead times to complete processes as well as the availability of equipment, contractors and space. A skilled planner knows that dirty trades such as surface preparation cannot work in the same zone as clean trades such as electrical

and that only a certain number of contractors can be in a cabin during fit out.” Williamson concluded, “Finally, completion of the plan! At this point, the builder will advise the owner of their two prime responsibilities – when stage payments need to be made, and when design decisions are due to meet planning milestones. If any elements are not accepted, the process needs to be worked through again.”

Broker or broke New owners contemplating a pre-loved superyacht must seek out trustworthy advice. A professional, reputable broker can guide the process from inception to enjoyment, whittling down the numerous designs and shipyards to present boats with the right specifications for the job and within budget. The new-build process is similar in that brokers can assemble a number of new-build opportunities for consideration. In conjunction with the buyer’s legal team, they can ensure that the Yacht Construction Agreement drawn up is suitable and can then work with a technical team to oversee the build to the correct specifications and standards. Brokers are just one route to dream fulfilment. Benjamin Maltby, an English barrister and director of leading yacht consultants MatrixLloyd, can be retained on a modest, fixed fee, by buyers to provide them with all the expert guidance required, from first interest through to launch and beyond.

Checking the yard's recent portfolio is a good way to make sure you have made the right choice. Backhanders and bravado Inevitably, some individuals acting on the behalf of buyers will expect illegal commissions or backhanders. Maltby said, “We neither solicit nor accept commissions, and ensure that no-one working for the buyer does either. By itself, this approach can save clients millions of Euros.” Maltby continued, “Our services are a must for first-time buyers.

if the buyer isn’t well represented throughout the build. Experienced owners save money by ensuring that commissions, backhanders and little ‘thank yous’ aren’t being paid to anyone and everyone associated with the build.”

Independent management

Pochon Lawyers & Associates in Luxembourg provide a service which includes suggesting various types of agreement to buy a superyacht, involving the incorporation of a company which could detain the vessel. Brigitte Pochon, CEO, commented, “We can draft the purchase contracts, lease agreements and all precontracts concerning the superyacht. We may also incorporate companies which would own the superyacht and include a domiciliation agreement between the company and the firm, in order to register it at the legal firm's address.”

Although yachts are used to experience pleasure, they require correct management to minimise losses and improve gains.

Derek Munro is the principle behind Yacht Consultancy Ltd, an independent company not involved in either brokerage or management.

Munro believes that although yachts are used to experience pleasure and relaxation, they require correct management to minimise losses and improve gains, as with a business. He said, “Thorough planning is imperative to help achieve the optimum end product for each client, every time. Nobody who builds or owns a yacht wishes to see their hard earned money being mismanaged and effectively thrown away.“ Philip Demler is a managing partner at Demler Marine Projects. He said, “Involving an owner‘s representative – an independent professional advisor – to look after your interests in a new build project not only reduces the owner‘s workload in the day-to-day build process, it also makes it a much more enjoyable

all-important shipyard standards. As a result, whatever problems an individual project faces, we’ve seen it before. Prior knowledge of the pros and cons relating to each type of vessel gives us, and therefore our clients, an enormous advantage.”

Architectural advice

Rules and registries

Bob Wagemakers C.Eng. MRINA a naval architect with Virtue Refit Yacht Management commented, “The key role of the owner’s representative is to look after the interests of the client only. Apart from being highly experienced in all aspects that the client desires to be represented in, perhaps one of the most important things is that this person is totally independent. Avoiding having too many intermediaries between the owner and his representative on the ground executing the wishes will result in a higher degree of independency. Whether building, buying or refitting a superyacht, a good owner’s rep will ensure that the process is smooth and straightforward for the owner and that he or she enjoys the experience, not only when on board, but also in dealing with all other aspects of ownership.“

Depending on the size and intended use of the vessel it may be required to meet classification, code or flag regulations (like SOLAS, MARPOL, IMO) in which case the buyer’s team will need to ensure these are adhered to. A first stage, especially for new-build projects, is to decide which flag the yacht will fly. Those buying second-hand should consider the ramifications of this before agreeing a purchase. Captain Desmond Howell is deputy director (technical and registry) at the Antigua and Barbuda Department of Marine Services and Merchant Shipping. He said, “Just like a person, a yacht or a ship wishing to travel between countries

Charlie Baker is an owner’s representative with CME Yachts consultancy. He offers another angle on the role of the rep, saying, “We consult in many yards, including the most prolific builders. We understand how they operate, their time-keeping, their sub-contractor control and their overall quality. We help them to raise their

needs a passport. This is set out in basic maritime law – the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). The idea is that by assigning a nationality to a ship, it is then subject to the laws of that country when on the high seas. They are not part of the sovereign territory of that country, but are subject to that country’s laws when on the high seas, and local laws when visiting another country.“ Owners are free to select their vessel’s nationality from a wide choice, and the business of registry and assigning nationality is a competitive and complex one. Choosing the right one from the outset is vitally important in delivering a yacht that can operate successfully. Howell explained, “Registries can be divided into two basic types; open and national. Open registries make no demands in so far as owner or crew nationality is concerned, but are in business to make money. National registries usually do have restrictions on nationality and domicile but are often cheaper. If a superyacht owner is resident in a country with a national register and wants to fly that country’s flag, he has that right. Open registries come in a great many flavours, from the excellent to the truly awful.”

the owner there is nothing better than a Red Ensign – namely flags including the UK and its Crown Dependencies and UK Overseas Territories. He said, “While open registries have their advantages, the security offered by well-established closed or National (British) registries in registering their title in a secure and stable jurisdiction is more suited to owners and the ownership structures of superyachts.” The Red Ensign group of British registers leads the world in establishing standards and codes for the construction and operation of superyachts. They recognised that superyachts simply didn’t fit with any established shipping conventions and so drafted codes to provide equivalence in safety, survivability, equipment and manning which have undergone revisions to keep them current. Welsh advised, “The earlier the relationship is established, the easier it is through the entire process up to delivery and afterwards in operation. Given the unique design of these yachts, a great deal of the day-to-day communication with our surveyors is discussing how to reach an equivalence with the code and how to achieve compliance in a pragmatic manner. “It is no surprise that the Red Ensign group has the lion’s share of the world’s registered superyachts. It is the advantage of the established large yacht and passenger yacht codes which set us apart in practical terms, as well as the comfort and stability of registering in a British jurisdiction.”

is key to ensuring that the vessel is operating safely, securely and compliant with the various mandatory flag state and international regulations.

surveyors you will be dramatically reducing the risk of having an accident and you may even find you save money and your reputation.

The grounding A Regs4yachts surveyor visited a yacht shortly after it had been aground which had resulted in considerable damage. The grounding occurred whilst the Master had attempted to avoid another yacht already aground on the northern edge of a sandbank. Unfortunately, the route chosen by the Master had taken the vessel on a track south of the aground vessel, resulting in being more aground than the grounded vessel. Upon investigation the surveyor found that sadly it wasn’t the skipper’s first incident. He had been aground on a previous vessel, not only running it up the beach but also running up a multi-million Euro repair bill. When asked what Cert of Competency he had, the master proudly produced a yacht skipper’s endorsement limited stating “not more than 200 miles from land.” In the light of the skipper’s previous performances the surveyor asked, without a hint of a smile, whether there was a misprint on the ticket and perhaps it should have read “not within 200 miles of land.” A fantastic true story, proving that however well qualified your crew are, even a superyacht can suffer from human error and decisions regarding the people you work with can effect even the most sturdy of ships.

Flying the flag Flag choice should be made very early in the process, and is a balancing act between legal jurisdictions, security of title, reputation, price, quality of service and support when things go wrong. A good registry will have a sound and clear set of technical standards for yacht construction, a well understood set of national laws securing title and rights, a marine administration that is knowledgeable and available to provide advice and support, and it will deliver the above unobtrusively and at a modest price. The final yacht will be safe, well constructed, properly documented and acceptable anywhere. A poor choice of registry will have none of the above. If local customs officers in a far-flung place demand certification which isn’t on board, or if there’s an accident involving the loss of a crew member, support and advice might not be there.

Management and maintenance Once the yacht is in service it is extremely important to have a strong operational management team looking after the owner’s yachting interests. This can be supplied by a specialist company set up to undertake such tasks or the owner can use existing staff employed elsewhere in his business to take on the extra responsibility. In some cases, the owner will empower the Captain to manage the yacht on his behalf.

We apply our many years of commercial and legal experience to make sure that costly mistakes are avoided. The manager should take care of the maintenance schedule for the yacht, the accounting and finance, crew recruitment, classification renewal, insurance and berthing requirements. A professional management company and a strong crew will ensure that the yacht is run and maintained correctly to maximise both the owner’s enjoyment and the ultimate residual value of the yacht. Ultimately, clients want value. Superyachts are of course ultra-high value items – and the sea is a rather precarious and demanding place in which to base such cherished and luxurious assets – but they don’t need to be as expensive as they often are. Assemble the right team; absorb the knowledge gained from other owners’ builds, successes and mistakes; develop a cutting-edge understanding of certification, compliance and regulation; and maintain an eagle eye on where the money is going at all times and the voyage from conception to delivery will be as painless as possible. n

Yacht management from ship to shore From helpful hierarchies to clever communication, learn how savvy owners keep their superyacht Bristol fashion

istorically, superyacht owners would hand over the day-to-day running of their vessel to a chosen Captain, just as the chair of the board passes the everyday control of a company to its managing director. With the increased workload and plethora of regulations that deluge captains’ desks, it is increasingly common to place the running of a superyacht into the hands of a professional yacht management company.

Prizes and pitfalls The delicate art of yacht management requires significant co-operation between shore staff and the ship’s Captain. However, it is all too easy for conflicts to develop, between a Captain who has worked hard to attain his or her position, and a management company with significant experience of applicable rules and regulations.

Captain-led methods place the entire burden of management onto one person, with the intrinsic risks of important regulatory and safety changes falling through the cracks. However, a manager operating in an overly top-down fashion risks losing sight of the fundamental purpose of the vessel: the enjoyment of owners and charter guests.

It is important to understand the roles of manager and captain. If the word ‘partnership’ is omitted, the venture is flawed.

Communication stations The Andrew Weir Yacht Management team aims to incorporate both on board and shore management into one entity. Daniel Taylor, the firm’s business development manager said, “Constant communication and efficient management systems promote a better working relationship on both sides and ensure that all parties are working toward the same goals, namely the safe operation of the yacht to the complete satisfaction of owners and guests.” Adrian McCourt is MD of London-based Watkins Superyachts. He agrees, saying, “Owners from the business community generally understand the need to entrust multi-million dollar companies to management teams rather than expose themselves to commercial risk and various liabilities by having the business handled by a single entity, but they are content to do

the opposite with their superyacht, their very high-value personal asset. It is important to understand the roles of manager and Captain. If the word ‘partnership’ is omitted, the venture is flawed.

Most managers working with captains will provide back-room resources, which would otherwise add to the workload of the crew and potentially divert them from their primary responsibilities of safety, and the comfort and enjoyment of the superyacht owner. The manager and the Captain working together will provide financial regularity, rapid response to routine and non-routine events and constructive mutual criticism and assistance for the positive benefit of their joint venture; in effect they become a corporate team, which manages the asset. As with any organisation, bringing in support resources does not diminish the role of the CEO – in this case, the Captain - but allows them to manage within a structure that protects the superyacht owner and the asset itself. Adrian McCourt says, “I know a number of captains who self-manage and do it very well indeed, but do have some fears of the risk of asset management relying on a single entity. I also know of managers who I wouldn’t trust

to tether a goat. The right manager is one that doesn’t see his role as an opportunity to upstage the Captain or create unnecessary complexity, so emphasis should be very much on the right manager.”

On shore or in situ? We asked some senior and highly experienced captains to give us their opinions on superyacht management strategy. Captain Paul Bickley of the Benetti-built motor yacht Latitude says, “The question of who is best is one of vast complexity. Firstly, the size of the yacht often determines the need and scale of management. A small vessel of 20-40m may be easily managed within the owner’s company infrastructure along with a competent Captain.” The yacht’s operational boundaries must also be assessed to determine whether or not external management will be beneficial. Private yachts used locally need different levels of assistance than those with worldwide cruising schedules. Captain Bickley says, “In my case I operate a very busy commercial charter yacht over 500GRT – a constant challenge due to the implementation of the ever changing flag and class requirements.” The selection of quality crew can also lessen the necessity for external assistance on various items in a management package. Many captains find that the demands on their

management company are relatively seasonal, and call upon their expertise more during yard periods and when class and flag inspections are due. During the cruising months, communications with shore-based managers on well run yachts are less frequent.

• hire specialist staff for guests like beauticians, masseurs or nannies

• help source the most suitable refit yard for the yacht and its budget

• secure a sought-after berth in a crowded marina or location

• organise on-board training to help the crew work in the way the manager knows the owner wants them to

Captain Carol Benbrook commands the superyacht Mariu. She has International Safety Management code (ISM) and International Ship and Port Security (ISPS) management support from Edmiston Yacht Management. Captain Benbrook says, “Edmiston have been a wonderful support to myself and my crew.” She adds, “On a commercial vessel over 500GRT, the Captain and management company should, ideally, work together for the best result for all involved. For ISM and ISPS, it is imperative to have support ashore. An effective level of communication and trust between the owner, Captain and management company should save money in the budget, ensure better safety standards on board and allow for a happier crew with a good working environment. This should show positive results by allowing yacht owners and charter guests to enjoy yachts to their full extent, safely and securely, which can be a truly amazing experience.”

Out of season requests (when the boat is in dock or over winter) are slightly different but are just as cyclical. Yacht managers are often contacted by superyacht captains to:

Seasonal demands When a boat is busy in the height of the charter season, captains typically ask their management companies to:

• help with regulatory paperwork, freeing up the Captain’s time for the guests

Superyacht Zone

• arrange for a relief Captain while he takes some well-earned shore leave

Sense and sensibility Recalling the ensuing arguments between Captain and manager when Titanic hit an iceberg, one Captain told us, “The ship would never have sunk if the manager had not been aboard and interfered.” Another Captain we spoke to reported, “Once I had a manager who wooed an unfortunate owner into buying a boat that was far too big for him. He promised that, with an appropriate refit, the owner would be able to charter it out and that it would not cost him anything. He managed a refit of the yacht at vast expense using his own workforce (which seemed to me a little suspicious), then put her to sea without any sea trials, persuading an unsuspecting delivery Captain to take it across to the Caribbean where she arrived with myriad problems including rigging failure and the steering quadrant falling off.” The new Captain continued, “She was handed over to me by the delivery Captain who left in absolute disgust. The work list was extensive, and the manager applied significant pressure on me to get the yacht ready for a charter just a few weeks away. This became increasingly

I am very upset with managers who get captains to do things they would not do themselves. unrealistic, the closer the date came. The money also began to dwindle and I was being pressed to consider using the charter revenue to fund the yacht's safety and charter equipment. The inevitable happened; I asked the owner directly to cancel the charter, as we could not be expected to fulfil our obligations under the terms of the contract, nor to fulfil the expectations of the guests. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Quite apart from rigging problems, machinery malfunction and insufficient guest equipment, there was not enough time for the new crew to familiarise themselves with the sailing of the yacht before the guests were expected to board. The manager was incensed that his charter was about to be cancelled and flew over to convince me to do it, after persuading the owner that he could. I told the manager that if he deemed the yacht ready to charter I would step off, and he could do it on his Captain's licence instead. He paled as the seriousness of my proposal dawned on him, and then withdrew. I am very upset with managers who get captains to do things they would not do themselves.â&#x20AC;?

NAUTICAL ENCYCLOPEDIA

Rob Tobin heads up Döhle Yacht Management, a spin-off of the commercial shipping company based on the Isle of Man. Rob said, “A Captain is expected to have an encyclopedic knowledge of all things nautical – and many do – but in order to manage and administer a yacht, one needs impeccable knowledge of the Company, Trust or Limited Liability Partnership that owns it; of top tier funding, finance, banking and accounting; of the legal and regulatory constraints of modern business; and of the employment, payroll, tax and VAT position of the seafarer. This requires a vast skill set that you simply don’t find in one person. Somewhere in that cornucopia of required knowledge, is yacht management.”

Plenty of captains succeed in managing a professionally run yacht from on board, but very few do so in isolation; management and outside experts often provide the framework for the Captain to work within. This will allow new ideas, new methods and updated technologies to be nurtured and implemented where appropriate. You would need a super human to keep up with all the new developments in the marine industry, and although most captains are very nearly at that level, by sharing the knowledge you ensure that the vessel runs at optimum level. The message to superyacht owners is to empower on-board management while giving the owner, Captain and crew comfort in the strength and depth of the shore-based team supporting them. n

HOLY BIBLE

Tobin continued, “All leaders should know how to play people to their strengths and mitigate their weaknesses while delegating effectively. This is true whether a Captain needs to delegate tasks ashore or not. If he can properly accommodate those tasks and responsibilities with his finite and precious resource on-board, he clearly should do so.” Rob Tobin concluded, “In my personal view, most so-called yacht managers are glorified port agents and, while they serve a purpose, to pretend they manage a yacht from ashore is nonsense. The Captain manages the yacht and (hopefully) delegates to the appropriately resourced and experienced experts ashore.”

WORLD ATLAS

Open channels ahead

Another Captain believes the subject of management is a never-ending story. He said, “Firstly, it depends on the owner and how much control he wants over crew and continuity. The second consideration is the Captain and what sort of guy he is. Thirdly, the management company itself should be investigated. Often it’s a one-man band or perhaps a company with a few more staff; there are also big organisations which only have a few people dedicated to that department. Finally, it depends on the size of the boat, how many crew and whether it charters or not. All of these points are so variable that I would be forced to say that it is not possible for anyone to say ”yes, all boats should have a management company’ or indeed vice versa.”

Effective Management A valuable asset to superyacht owners and captains

Why do you need effective management? There has been some debate between owners, captains and their crew regarding the yacht management industry for some years now. As operational legislation increases and regulatory requirements become more demanding on the time of captains, crew and the owners of super yachts, an effective shore based management company is becoming an essential option when planning to run a successful private or commercial vessel. Management companies can provide a number of key services which will benefit the yacht owner, aiding the enjoyment of yacht ownership at all times, onboard and ashore. The owner should never have to worry and must feel completely comfortable in the knowledge that their interests are being well maintained. The owner should feel assured that best value practice is always being undertaken in relation to operational, financial, safety, security and environmental policies, by a trustworthy and experienced team.

How to manage your management An excellent relationship with the owners, captains and crew is essential, as all parties will respond positively to a management team by whom they feel fully supported. Clear channels of communication are essential to maintain a wellmanaged yacht. Responsibilities and authority to make decisions should be designated and clearly assigned between the owner, captain and their chosen management company at an early stage. The management team must appreciate that not all owners have the same requirements and that it is crucial for a bespoke package to be compiled which will suit everyone involved.

Technical support An excellent operational knowledge and qualified technical assistance from the shore side manager will add to the onboard experience and success of the vessel. Good management is not simply a matter of keeping costs down, it requires a complete understanding of the yacht, its owners, guests, crew and their suppliers. Transparency is key, as financially the processes should be beyond reproach as well

as achievable. Mutual respect and trust are also important; a yacht crew needs to respect and value the management company as an asset to the vesselâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operation and the owner should feel the same. The management company should understand they are the support service and listen to the on-board crew when their help is required.

Look after your investment A superyacht is an investment which can quickly depreciate if it is not operating correctly. Captains and crew have exceptionally busy schedules, especially when the yacht is chartered on a regular basis. Safety, security and pollution prevention need to be areas that are never sidestepped by management and a busy captain and crew will not necessarily have time to think about changes in legislation or correct and orderly documentation. A good management company can keep abreast of these important elements, updating the owner and captain accordingly.

Commercial or private All yachts are designed to do the same job, thus making them very similar from a management

perspective. Superyachts should be fun for all parties concerned. The owner should enjoy every miniscule detail about their yacht, whether cruising on board or planning the next refit or new construction venture. Charter guests should experience a seamlessly smooth, luxurious vacation from the moment they step on-board. A commercial vessel does need the additional knowledge of constantly evolving regulation and law, however there is no doubt that the practices that develop on-board commercial vessels eventually end up on well operated private yachts.

Safety first Guests and crew on-board the yacht must feel safe and secure. A management company will update captains on the latest tools and technologies to help with this and, in accordance with the International Safety Management code, provide 24 hour assistance should it be required.

That sinking feeling Superyacht safety lessons to be learned

he superyacht was in trouble, eighteen miles off the coast. Fire had broken out and was taking hold. The Captain ordered the evacuation of all unnecessary persons on board and, with his crew, set about fighting the fire to save the yacht. Nothing went according to plan. Deep rooted in the engine room, the fire should have been extinguished with the firing of the first batch of LM200 fire fighting gas. It wasn’t. The Captain ordered the firing of the secondary backup batch, bringing the fire under control. Fire fighting tugs were ordered from a nearby port to tow the yacht to safety and, once on the scene, doused the engine room vents with water. With the blaze finally extinguished, the crippled superyacht was towed back to harbour. Ashore, the Captain had nothing but the highest of praise for his gallant crew, who had successfully fought to save the multi-million dollar asset. In turn, the crew were adamant that the Captain had saved the yacht. At the subsequent inquiry, the happy ending was put down to good crew training, strong leadership and the fact that the crew were well versed in

fire fighting drills. The Captain conceded that he had also learned much from reading Safety Reports about fires on board ships at sea and of best practice in such emergencies, and had taken the time to share this knowledge with the crew. In short, lessons had been learned from previous disasters.

Safety reporting Simon Harvey is program director at superyacht resource company Neurons 2 People Skills. He believes that personal development is a must if those aboard are to stay safe and that this starts with self-awareness – the foundation to crew resource management. He says, “Talk about Safety Reports with your crew. Learn where you may be making similar assumptions in a situation. Learn how mental models can affect behaviour and how behaviour can affect environment. Talk about how understanding your own management and leadership styles in the workplace can affect results and outcome. If you are to have a healthy safety culture on board, open communication and personal and team development are a must.”

He believes that personal development is a must if those aboard are to stay safe and that this starts with self-awareness. Safety Reports are nothing new but they are not as well utilised in the superyacht industry as in the commercial shipping industry. “That’s because we have a different attitude to confidentiality!” explained one Captain. He continued, “When an anonymous report about a watertight door closing prematurely and injuring a crewman is published, the Merchant Navy officer will read the report and take action to ensure it does not happen aboard his own ship.” “The naval Captain would immediately: • call a safety meeting to discuss the issue with his crew • ensure that his vessel’s flag state issued a safety report to its fleet • run training sessions explaining what to do, when, where and why • affix signs near the door, warning crew of its automatic nature.“

The Captain, who wished to remain anonymous, continued, “The superyacht crew member would read the report and angst over the size of the yacht, its cruising destination at the time of the incident and the flag it was flying, in a bid to determine which yacht was involved and who the injured crewman might be.” Superyacht crew and owners should learn from both the royal and merchant navies whose attitude to safety places preventative training and education very highly on their must-do lists.

Safety training for you, your yacht, crew and guests Owners spend significant sums of money on the construction, maintenance and operation of the yacht and this should include regular crew training. As the Captain is responsible for the safety of everyone on board, utilising the experience of external training companies only enhances the skills of those working on board for the benefit of all. Film companies like Clear Blue Sky specialise in crew and guest safety videos working in conjunction with crew trainers, Da Gama Maritime. Consideration should be given to utilising two professional and experienced companies to work closely with the crew to tailor individual packages for the vessel. This ensures the teams not only get pushed harder with drills

and procedures but also have the opportunity to create vessel specific films for future review, regular revision and in respect to guests, provide an informative and bespoke safety movie demonstrating the qualification and abilities of the crew. Crew are not always helped by the poor quality of some investigations. In recent times, the sinking of a 62m motor yacht was reported widely, with the wildfire coverage of social media and online channels spreading misinformation in lieu of any solid facts. Speculation as to why it happened was therefore rife and the shipyard that built her suffered as a consequence. A well-researched, concise and timely report with thoughtful recommendations may have avoided such a situation. Alas, the flag state took over a year to publish its findings and when it did, very few learned anything from it all.

Safety flyers The Cayman Islands’ Ship Registry is home to many superyachts, and its surveyors have a realistic attitude to issuing Safety Reports. They believe that by communicating advice and guidance to superyachts, accidents may be prevented. Angus McLean, the Cayman Registry’s principal surveyor for statutory compliance and casualty investigation, explains, “Normally, we do not formally investigate ‘near misses’, although we do reserve the right to do so in cases where there are significant safety

lessons to be learned.” The registry recently published a safety notice following the event mentioned earlier, which occurred on board one of its flagged superyachts. The incident was triggered when controls for the vessel’s watertight doors failed, causing them to close early and trap a crewman. He called for help and had his leg released by another member of the crew using local controls. No one was harmed but the registry seized the opportunity to issue a Safety Flyer to highlight the specific safety issues involved and to serve as a reminder of the importance of on-going training aboard. Safety Flyers contain urgent information and are produced for marine safety purposes only, on the basis of information available at the time. Their objective is to prevent future accidents through the ascertainment of an incident’s causes and circumstances; the registry is at pains to clarify that its investigations are not to determine liability or to apportion blame. It is not always possible to publish a report. In February 2000, a relatively new 45m motor cruiser sank in the Caribbean while on passage to Havana. The yacht’s Captain issued a mayday message when water started flooding the engine room. Within half an hour the sea, which was calm, was lapping at the main deck. A British Royal Navy destroyer on anti-drug operations was 35 miles from Puerto Rico's capital, San Juan, when it responded to the call and rescued the 11 crew members as they abandoned ship. There were no injuries among

the crew who were taken to San Juan in a US Coast Guard cutter. The cause of this incident was not ascertained and it is unlikely the true cause will ever be established, given the great depth of water in which the yacht sank. There was predictably much curiosity as to the cause of this incident. A likely – but not proven – suspicion is that the yacht’s sea chests were to blame; that they were either corroded and failed or were left compromised through human error (sea chests are used to import seawater into the yacht to cool its engines, generators and air-condition systems and by water makers, which convert sea water into fresh water for use on board).

Learning from loss of life

leaving a marina, a superyacht needed to transit a swing bridge requiring crew to manually fend off by placing fenders between the yacht’s hull and the bridge buttress. While doing so, a crewman was apparently struck by a fixed fender attached to the bridge structure and was pulled overboard. Caught between the bridge and the hull, the man was severely crushed and then fell into the water where he was retrieved by a small passing boat. Unfortunately, the man was pronounced dead shortly afterwards.

When outcomes are less favourable, lives can be lost. It is on these occasions that learning from official reports can be most beneficial. The Cayman Registry published an interim report (issued as a Flyer to the Large Yacht Industry) following a fatal accident during a bridge transit. The report describes how, shortly after

The interim report identified notable safety considerations, including the need for proper passage planning to identify risks and put suitable mitigation measures in place. It also highlighted the merits of crew briefings prior to any activity on board, to ensure

True or not, one safety warning that reverberated around the marine world as a result is that sea chests are a potential threat to a vessel’s safety if not operated and maintained by fully trained crew. An additional learning was that a well-drilled crew, familiar with emergency evacuation procedures, can get to safety without serious injury.

Superyacht crew and owners should learn from both the royal and merchant navies whose attitude to safety places preventative training and education very highly on their must-do lists.

everyone’s role is clear and understood. The report discussed the availability, visibility and crew deployment of life-saving appliances such as lifebuoys in an emergency. It stressed the importance of good communication in a distress situation, stating, “Although mobile telephones provide an easy way to contact shore-based emergency services, they should only be used for marine incidents after all attempts to raise the appropriate responders by VHF radio (or other GMDSS methods) have been expended or exhausted.”

Docking disaster In another incident a motor yacht involved in a docking manoeuvre was pivotal in the death of someone ashore. Wind and tidal conditions were benign and procedures were routine, so once four lines had been made fast ashore, a crew member placed the bridge wing controls in the full ahead position as usual and closed the control station. Unfortunately both engines were still running, but in idle mode. The action of putting the controls into the full ahead position engaged the propellers and the yacht surged ahead. Three mooring points in use on the quay failed and two bystanders were struck by flying debris – one on the legs and the other on the head. Both were rushed to hospital where one underwent reconstructive surgery, but the latter remained in a critical condition and died five days later. The findings of the report concluded that due to the design of the bridge wing control

It is hoped that crew reading Safety Reports will learn from othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mistakes, and it is likely they do. station, it had indeed been necessary to put the engine controls in the full ahead position before the control station could be closed. In an effort to prevent a repeat of this accident, recommendations were issued relating to the design of bridge wing control stations on yachts, the importance of proper procedural controls for mooring operations and the implementation of safety management systems under the International Safety Management (ISM) code. It is hoped that crew reading Safety Reports will learn from othersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mistakes, and it is likely they do. After the loss of a yacht to fire at sea, crew are now far more vigilant about cleaning the lint from a vesselâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tumble drier vents (the oversight of which once lead to the loss of a superyacht). There are many lessons to be learned from Safety Reports; wise owners will ensure that crew get time not only to read and learn from them, but that time and resources are allocated to ensure that similar incidents do not happen aboard. n

It's not a shower It's a symphony Reconfigure your concept of the bathroom with modular products and smart technology from Dornbracht

hen someone needs to reawaken, revive or jolt themselves back to life, a cold shower is often prescribed. This is the effect that Dornbracht’s visual and sensorial symphonies are having on the superyacht bathroom scene: they are shaking and waking it up to what can be achieved by pairing product design with new technologies and minimalist design with maximal style.

When is a shower not a shower? Not content with refining and imperceptibly tweaking their products season on season, Dornbracht bathroom technologies incorporate digital innovation, atmospheric ambience and controls so sexy they make you want to jump out of your clothes to get closer to the intimate, individualised action.

Dornbracht is a globally active family-run manufacturer of high-quality fittings and accessories for bathrooms and kitchens. With 'Culturing Life' as its brand claim. Dornbracht are connected to high end design, minimalist style and the very best you can expect from that ever so prominent “Made in Germany”. Maybe this is how the idea for their latest project came about. Matthias Voit, Key Account Manager said, “We have been working, just like anyone else in the industry, on more exciting showers. Different jets, rain drops, vapour and such, and at some point, we got to the end of this development, just like anyone else. It took a leap, not a step, and the much needed push came in the form of electronics. All we had to do (this took an entire department some 5 years!) was combine the endless means of a computer with best of Dornbracht, and out came ATT.”

The concept of the bathroom is configured anew with modular products and smart technology. Ambiance Tuning Technique ATT is Ambiance Tuning Technique, and the system stands for nothing less. A computerised shower system with numerous independent outlets and jets at a fingertip, you tell your shower exactly what you want and ATT will provide. Dornbracht can almost orchestrate a symphony of water, from a more relaxing programme to one that will energise you for the day to come with just one touch on the control panel.

Horizontal Shower Forget about what you may have heard of Vichy showers, and meet the Dornbracht Horizontal Shower. The ordinary name is a humble disguise for probably the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most advanced means to make you go wow. Lie down on a cosy, warmed bench, choose a programme and relax. Soon, six shower heads producing water in various pressures and temperatures will make a soothing beam move up and down your body. The light ambiance in the room will adjust to the

programme, as will the sound. You can choose music composed to meet and enhance the water play, or if you feel like having your favourite songs staged with your treatment, ATT can connect this to the system, too. A number of prominent places have been quick to the first to make ATT a part of their SPA, and the word is spreading fast.

Sensory Sky Available for delivery in Autumn 2013, Sensory Sky makes showering a unique experience that stimulates all the senses. Different rain, fog, light and fragrance complement one another to create complex choreographies, inspired by weather phenomena and the moods of nature. Throughout product development, the focus has been on keeping technology in the background. Sensory Sky combines technological complexity with minimalist design. The wide and flat rain panel has separate shower fields for head sprinkler, body sprinkler and rain curtain, a cold-water fog nozzle and light and fragrance functions. Controls are easy and convenient to use and with a gentle press of a button the desired scenario begins.

Smart Water Smart Water stands for the vision of enlisting the numerous possibilities for digitisation in the bathroom (and kitchen). With a single flick of the wrist, two control dials can dictate the exact temperature and water volume required. The easy-to-read display switch can be used to call

up useful pre-programmed settings and helpful functions for everyday applications. ”The bathroom is becoming digital,” Andreas Dornbracht explains. ”Even today, Smart Tools are the foundation for the bathroom and the kitchen of tomorrow.“ In this way, Smart Water is only just embarking on a new digital future. As an innovator and pioneer in the industry, Dornbracht will continue to advance this development and set new standards for product and system solutions in the bathroom and kitchen. A new era in bathroom and kitchen architecture is beginning.

Personal needs, individual spaces A completely new digital operation technology transform the product portfolio at Dornbracht into a unique modular construction kit. People's individual needs determine how they design the spaces in which they carry out their daily activities. The focus is not on the individual products but on their functions: from cleansing to cosmetic applications and even prevention against ill health. The aim is to develop even better, more intelligent and more specific forms for the presentation of water. Thanks to the benefits of 'sampling' different Dornbracht products, there are practically no limits to the ways in which customers can individually tailor the language of form, water application and water control that suits them best. The concept of the bathroom is being configured anew. n

All robes lead to Rome Slippery and sublime superyacht bathrooms

t was in the time of the Roman Empire that bathrooms first became places in which to linger longer while lavishing attention on one’s body. The Romans adored washing and bathing, as evidenced by the magnificent public bath houses built across their empire for centuries. The ultra-high net worth individuals of their day also constructed impressive baths in their own expansive villas. During emperor Augustus’ reign, there were 170 public baths in Rome alone. By 300 A.D. this had risen to over 900. Even back then, bathrooms were incredibly luxurious affairs with mirrored walls, richly seamed marble pools and mosaic-lined floors. Their fresh hot water was delivered by a furnace-fired central heating system, and larger complexes even housed restaurants, games rooms and libraries.

Soapy social networks Bathroom construction required excellent engineering skills then, as now. Houses had their water supplied via lead pipes, which were taxed according to size so, as most couldn’t

afford such luxury, the popularity of public bathing houses soared. These social hubs were full of gossip, gaiety and community spirit, allowing the locals to relax, bathe and pass on all the news of the day.

One complex built by the emperor Diocletian was the size of a football pitch. Private bathrooms became the ultimate status symbol. One complex built by the emperor Diocletian was the size of a football pitch. Like contemporary superyacht bathroom designers, the rich and thought leaders of the day wanted to make a statement. Statues jostled with massive marble columns; assistants and aides rubbed shoulders with masseurs proffering sensuous olive oil rubs and tempting treatments.

Bespoke bathing Pairing Rome’s essential blend of indulgence and sensuality with practicality, leading superyacht bathroom designers are adept at layering luxurious form over incredible functionality. Bathing aboard is reaching unimagined heights of relaxation, invigoration and, perhaps surprisingly, technological innovation. When Pendennis transformed the 20-yearold Masquerade of Sole into the almost brand new A2, they collaborated with New Yorkbased architect, Peter Marino on interior design, and Dorr and Parkway Interiors (interior build experts) on the yacht’s master en-suite bathroom. Roman Classico Travertine stone adorns the walls, floors and vanity tops for that timeless touch; the bathroom hardware and lighting is clean-lined and contemporary with polished nickel detailing. The VIP cabin features shimmering glass-frosted sycamore and grey striped Pentelikon, each marble slab meticulously chosen to blend into its new home. The guest bathrooms boast pristine slabs of grain-cut Perlino Bianco marble. The

Roman Empire epitomises wealth, opulence and longevity and their grandiose bathing style has certainly left its mark on society.

Unique, not uniform Andrew Winch Designs has created some of the most complex and exquisite bathrooms seen aboard superyachts. Each strives to evoke harmony, space and relaxation, regardless of the yacht’s size. Andrew, whose philosophy is to turn his clients’ dreams into reality, said, “Each of our projects is totally unique, reflecting our clients’ tastes and lifestyle. When it comes to bathroom design, we continue with these values to create individual areas tailored specifically to our clients’ needs.” Andrew continued, “As with every aspect of our projects, communication is essential. Establishing whether the clients would prefer separate ‘his and hers’ bathrooms and the sort of facilities preferred are all addressed from the outset, and incorporated into each project. “Attention to detail is vital to the success of each our designs. We recently designed an exquisite bath carved from a solid block of onyx marble. Weighing in at a staggering 0.5 ton, specialised engineering was incorporated to ensure the water temperature would not decrease too quickly. Experience showers and even unique details such as refrigerated make-up units have been incorporated on occasion, too.”

Emily Naumann, of Reymond Langton said, “Years ago, bathrooms were functional rooms with easy-clean tiles and standard equipment. Now, decoration and atmosphere play just as important a role as practicality. Bathrooms are seen as much more than purely functional spaces. They need to be inviting, relaxing and reviving. “Our bathrooms are always designed in conjunction with the bedrooms of the owner or guest suites. We repeat certain materials and design details from the bedroom in the bathroom, building connections between both rooms and giving the bathroom a warmer, cosier feel. “We often use sliding doors. When these doors are kept open the suites feel more spacious and enjoy better circulation. We’ve also designed open-plan suites with no doors between bedroom and bathroom. For one design, the bedroom and bathroom were under the same ceiling, divided by a medium height wall, allowing the design to flow between both areas.” Emily continued, “To heighten a bathroom’s enjoyment, adaptable lighting concepts are needed ranging from ‘getting dressed brightness’ to more relaxing ‘hot bath’ settings. As weight is always an issue on board, we use thin-cut stone where possible, though this doesn’t work for all materials. We can also introduce beautifully panelled timber walls and parquet flooring to add warmth and softness. We strive to ensure

IMAGE: ©Dornbracht2010

that our bathrooms feel like little spas within their suites.” Jonny Horsfeld, principle of London-based H2 Design, believes there are two kinds of yacht bathrooms. A functional guest bathroom, and a grand owner’s bathroom. He said, “Due to relative lack of space, the guest bathrooms are generally pretty compact and rectangular. We tend to advise clients to go with comfortable showers rather than bathtubs, or to reduce the number of tubs. “We enjoy designing bathrooms for grander owners’ suites, which combine dressing areas and bedroom. Though often open plan, in reality most clients still want some level of privacy including separate enclosed WCs for each, a bath for the wife and a large shower for the client. On Talisman 2 we designed an interesting split-level bathroom with the shower upstairs, above the bathtub.”

From bath to objet d’art In Germany, Franz Kaldewei believes that the filigree designs on their enamelled shower surfaces and bathtubs transform them into individual design objects. They told SYOG, “Nothing cheers us more after a cold winter than watching spring awaken, with buds bursting and a plethora of plants displaying their first blooms. Our floral trends are inspired by this, from baths decorated with durable ornamental lily patterns to statement

As a creative statement, it is the perfect choice for any bathroom to add a little something extra, promising a daily experience of spring in the bathroom. showers with individually enamelled surfaces.” This delicate flower décor, from award-winning design firm Phoenix Design Stuttgart/Tokyo, harmoniously adds an element of eye-catching spring freshness to Kaldewei’s timeless enamelled products.

Bathe your troubles away It is said that the bathroom denotes the start and end of every day. Making this room a space to relax in and enjoy should be a priority. Like good food, an exquisite bathroom can enhance any visit or holiday, and an average washroom can put many people off the most luxurious of locations. It seems though, that the genetic makeup of a bathroom is changing. At a recent seminar in London, the question “who actually uses a bidet anymore?” was aired, and after a stifled giggle, the room of leading superyacht experts agreed that the bidet may have had its day. 20 years ago a bathroom of any worth would include a bidet, but most modern, western bathrooms have forgone this misunderstood bathroom fitting in exchange for high-tech gadgets, separate multi-person showers, flat screen TV’s to watch your favourite show in the bath, surround sound systems and touchscreen water temperature controls.

The bath is the first room in the house you see in the morning & the last at night. Appoint it thoughtfully for years of enjoyment. The Eastern world and the Japanese in particular have taken a different view, and by 2010, 72% of their domestic toilets were a combination of the bidet and flush toilet commonly called washlets.

The age old art of keeping clean This is unsurprising when you delve into the cultural nuances surrounding the age old art of keeping clean. A typical western washing experience is short, practical and something to get out of the way before you get on with your day. Barring the occasional candlelit bath with champagne on the side, (and letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s be honest, how often does that actually happen) washing is functional and to the point. Put yourself on the other side of the world and bathing transforms into something beautiful. Washing your body is ritualistic. Slow, practised and all-encompassing, bathing is a custom, a tradition to be enjoyed but taken very seriously. You wash away the daily

grime on your skin, but also cleanse away the stresses and strains you picked up along the way. With that much emphasis on a good scrub in the tub, improvements to the commode were sure to happen. It is important to keep clean and unclean areas separated in Japan. House interiors, including bathrooms, are considered clean. The latrine is considered unclean. Special slippers are worn solely in the restroom to make sure you don’t walk from a dirty area to a clean one. While you are in there though, wearing your slippers, imagine toilets that are capable of measuring the user’s body fat, blood pressure and level of sugar in the urine and then reporting the statistic to your doctor. Contemplate seats that warm your bottom while you wait, self-deodorising units and clever little devices called the Otohime, also known as the Sound Princess, which mimic the noise of a toilet flushing to protect a ladies dignity. All of these products are widely available to the superyacht market, so whether you charter your superyacht and want to make sure your guests enjoy the best possible experience from bathroom to bow thruster, or if you simply want to future-proof your own facilities, look to the East for inspiration. However, to find out how Roman bathes, you’ll have to charter Eclipse. But to emulate the legendary lavish Romans themselves – inventors and innovators of the modern day bath as we know it – find inspiration for your superyacht in the SYOG suggestions above. n

Adding a green sheen Why eco-luxury needn’t be an oxymoron

he climate on planet Earth is changing. For many, this is indicative of the excesses of mankind. As a result, many manufacturers are seeking greener ways in which to produce their goods and operate their services, and consumers are increasingly taking a product’s ethics, integrity and environmental footprint into account when making purchasing decisions. The superyacht world – which notoriously drips with excessive consumption and personal indulgence – is an unlikely candidate for greening, being perceived as the antithesis of green. In an address to superyacht professionals, designer Michael Peters went so far as to call a ‘green superyacht’ an oxymoron. With careful thought and the appliance of science, however, improvements can be made. Though the moniker ‘eco-friendly’ is pushing the boat out a little far, ‘eco-friendlier-than-before’ is certainly

attainable and is already being achieved by certain shipyards and vessels worldwide.

Inspiration for the superyacht nation There’s no shortage of visual and conceptual inspiration when it comes to what can be achieved with insight, foresight and commitment to the green dream. British designer, Alastair Callender, was the winner of The International Superyacht Society's Excellence in Innovation - Award of Distinction, 2010 and received the coveted Condé Nast Innovation and Design Award in the Sustainability category for his stunning 58m eco-cruiser concept, Soliloquy. Her zero-emission propulsion system combines wind and hybrid marine power, with cutting edge technology from Solar Sailor Ltd. Alastair succeeded in his aim to prove that eco and luxury could become bedfellows without cynical eyebrows being raised.

Environmental friendliness is a must for a modern yacht in order to satisfy more and more demanding customers, administrations and local authorities. Registro Italiano Navale (RINA), Green Star yacht accreditation

globetrotting Tribu was launched by Mondo Marine in 2007 and though white in colour, she was ultra-green at heart. Tribu was the first yacht ever built to RINA Green Star standards, which state, “The RINA Green Star Yacht additional class notation and logo identifies yachts which are designed, constructed and operated in such a way as to ensure maximum respect for the environment.” Luciano’s conscience remains as clean as his couture empire is colourful. The classification society suggests that by following the green code, yachts will be more welcome in the world’s sensitive cruising areas like Alaska and Antarctica. Tribu has a filtered bilge water separation system and a water ballast management system that complies with the IMO resolution A868 (20); non-toxic antifouling paint; and a system of waste treatment that monitors and even analyses the strength of the effluent.

While Soliloquy remains on the drawing board at the model makers, Dutch yard Royal Huisman has already built Ethereal – the eco-friendly sailing yacht of Bill Joy, co-founder of Sun Micro Systems. Nicknamed ‘the green superyacht’, Ethereal achieved her goal of becoming the most efficient large vessel afloat when she was launched, becoming an industry ambassador for green technology. Designed by Pieter Beeldsnijder with naval architecture by Ron Holland, the yacht set new standards in energy-efficient sailing yachts. At the owner’s behest, noisy generators were dispensed with and much of the energy-efficient equipment aboard was custom built specifically for the yacht, allowing her to mirror the silent lifestyle of family cruising vessels a tenth of her size.

Kingship aims for Green Voyager to achieve the platinum level of Green Star Plus – RINA’s newest environmental accreditation.

Green Voyager is another superyacht to take sustainability seriously. Designed by Horacio Bozzo and engineered by Axis Group Yacht Design for luxury yacht builder Kingship, the 44m vessel is designed for owners desirous of a low-impact yacht without cutting corners on luxury or cruising capability. Kingship aims for Green Voyager to achieve the platinum level of Green Star Plus – RINA’s newest environmental accreditation.

Social responsibility Taking corporate social responsibility as paramount, Rob Humphreys of Humphreys Yacht Design is trying to reduce the environmental impact of yacht construction and operation, focusing on designs that utilise advanced production methods. His Tomorrow/Today design has a fully-glazed atrium spanning the entire width and height of the yacht, providing a natural and passive heating and cooling ventilation system, with automatic louvres to adjust the solar exposure and reduce power requirements dramatically. Another innovative feature is the vessel’s extensive photovoltaic sun canopy on the upper deck driven by the notion of a forest. Humphreys has also collaborated with Germanbased Skysail to produce a wind-powered trimaran that doesn’t have a single mast. Early tests with a commercial freighter have proven the viability of this idea.

Green new-builds What can be done at the planning stage to ensure that a superyacht is fundamentally as green as it can be? Despite his earlier comment about oxymorons, yacht designer Michael Peters thinks that helpful steps can be taken, such as intrinsically different shaped hulls to improve performance. Longer hulls with a narrow beam, shorter-length multi hulls with their intrinsically wide beam, and even hulls that employ the Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) concept, could all use reduced propulsion power to achieve the same end result as conventionally shaped and traditionally powered yachts. He said, “Such savings are not only to be found in the cost of fuel, but in the reduction of raw materials and weight savings achieved by building a smaller power plant.” In terms of materials, open deck spaces that would normally be covered in precious Burmese teak can be covered in more sustainable alternatives. One hundred and eighty year old teak trees are felled to deck just one 50m superyacht. Alternative deck coverings could potentially save many trees, and production boat builders who use smaller amounts of teak per unit can still play a significant part in this process by switching to alternative decking material. Teakdecking Systems has long been attuned to its environmental responsibilities and those of the boat building industry. Its vertical grain Burmese teak comes from managed Asian forests

with 30 to 50 year felling cycles. One elephant and one man spend their entire working careers together carefully removing teak logs without damaging new growths. This is quite different to some lumbering operations, which use large mechanised equipment to indiscriminately clear roads through forests. The company pioneered the concept of pre-assembled decking; built away from the vessel in controlled factory conditions some 30 years and 20,000 decks ago. The process inherently uses less teak than traditionally hand-laid decking because it precisely controls resource allocation and lumber sourcing.

Synthetic decking Gabrielle Clark of Esthec (the synthetic decking substitute for wooden decks) believes, “Sustainability is at the top of everyone’s agenda. For this reason, our mission is to highlight the environmental aspects of our products, contributing to a sustainable future.“ Esthec includes recycled material in production; reuses its own waste; uses materials which are over 90% recyclable; and sources all products locally to decrease its footprint. The manufacture of Esthec does not require the cutting of any trees, protecting the world’s natural resources.

Solvents and Chemicals Solvent-free paints are another product that can be actively chosen over less planet-friendly alternatives. Many people believe that such

IMAGE: ©Esthec 2013

products should be standard on all yachts as they reduce both the environmental impact of construction and any potential harm to crew and guests. They are also safer for shipyard workers to use, and the vessel does not need to be tightly closed up during the painting process meaning fewer man hours are needed. Many superyacht owners and captains are now issuing instructions for their crew to use nontoxic boat cleaning products. Environmental Yacht Services in the south of France works with a UK-based toxicologist to guarantee that all their yacht products are safe both for the sea and for the sailors who use them, issuing certification to confirm that yachts are operating an entirely ‘green interior programme’.

Reducing fuel consumption Podded propulsion systems such as the E-Pod drives can be effective in reducing fuel consumption and the environmental impact. The E-Pod drives are powered by several diesel generators, which gives a fuel consumption that is optimised at all speeds. The diesel generators can be replaced by an alternative power solution in the years to come, which makes the yacht evolutionary. Along with higher fuel efficiency and lower pollution, podded drives bring silence and very low vibration, excellent manoeuvring capabilities and lower maintenance to the yacht. In France, Alexis Berdugo, who has lived on a yacht since his early childhood, heads up

the forward-thinking Pearl Marine Propulsion (PMP). He seeks to share his expertise in electric propulsion with superyacht owners. Using Engtek’s world-leading technology (as the official agent), PMP offers green, eco-friendly propulsion solutions that bring to the yacht manoeuvrability, silence, the absence of vibration, and low pollution in high proportions. From the outset, Berdugo has seen it as his personal mission to assist the superyacht owner, with the designer and the shipyard to integrate electric propulsion into the general design of the boat. He says, “It will turn the expense of pleasure into an investment for the future.”

Miss MARPOL Using heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems that meet or exceed all the requirements of the Montreal Protocol of 1989 (an international treaty on substances that deplete the ozone layer) is another step towards the green dream, as is the use of water-mist-based fire fighting systems rather than those charged by gas. Yards that meet or exceed MARPOL environmental standards (the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships) should be used and it is better still if they have achieved Environmental Protection class notation in their construction process.

Space saving waste Superyacht waste is of growing concern, too, with increasing amounts of food waste simply thrown

overboard, especially in popular cruising grounds like the Mediterranean. Relevant MARPOL regulations have prompted a company called Tony Team to develop a product that compresses food waste down to 14% of its original size, which is a huge boon for space-pressed chefs and crew. Tony Team’s managing director, Victoria Oates, said, “We’ve had loads of enquiries since MARPOL changes were implemented. Before, it was a nice thing to have; now people haven’t got a choice. While most of the food, packaging and cleaning products that constitute garbage have remained the same in the new MARPOL V rules, there are one or two new appearances that could make a difference. Cooking oil and animal carcasses are new to the list of garbage items, along with operational wastes and cargo residues.” Coolants such as chlorous CFKs and HCFKs deplete the ozone layer, and agreements were established in the Montreal Protocol to gradually phase them out. Heinen and Hopman Engineering in the Netherlands has developed chillers to replace existing on-board facilities with state-ofthe-art cooling systems without the need to open the hull. These are designed and manufactured as a building package and are suitable for transporting through the doors of a superyacht.

Floating footprints No matter where a yacht is owned or chartered or whatever fuel it uses, it will generate a carbon footprint. With the spotlight on sustainability, this

may well be the first environmental impact that a superyacht owner, guest, or a casual passer-by might consider. Fortunately this is one area where there is an effective and immediate response available to any yacht: carbon offsetting. Mark Robinson, from Yacht Carbon Offset, explains, “Carbon offsetting matches the greenhouse gas emissions from a yacht’s engines, tonne for tonne, with equivalent emission reductions from green energy projects on shore. Owners and guests from all around the world have welcomed this concept. No on-board equipment is needed and the service is completely flexible; we can certify a carbon offset for a single charter or for a whole season’s cruising. The yacht receives a certificate detailing exactly what has been offset, backed up by our Lloyd’s Register Quality Assurance Certification. At under three eurocents per litre of fuel, it has a very small impact on the yacht’s budget, yet the carbon funding supports projects such as geothermal and small hydro-electric projects that would otherwise not exist, so it really makes a difference.” With global warming and the ever-present pressure from environmental campaigners for the marine trade to clean up the seas and to act respectfully and responsibly, these are challenging times for shipyards and owners – challenges which can often be met head on and overcome or ameliorated with forethought, investment and technology. In the battle for the yacht dollar, it is the shipyards who embrace green technology who will win the next round in the fight for business survival and the green yachts which will be more attractive on the charter market. n

Cinematic escapes Superyacht theatre that mirrors a film's location

one are the days when having the biggest TV screen was enough to generate awe and admiration in your guests. In the world of personal entertainment, moving cinema seats, karaoke systems whose lights mirror the singer’s pitch and a fireplace with virtual flames that do not burn are just a handful of the audiovisual (AV) effects being deployed aboard modern superyachts. Here are some futuristic developments to look out for today. Moving seats that make a movie seem real are one of the special attributes of the 12-person cinema aboard the 75m superyacht in which SYOG cruised recently. They employed what is called 4D technology, a technique developed by D Box in Canada, a company that works closely with the studios at a movie’s postproduction stage to match seat movements with frame-by-frame screen action. With up to 30 separate movements a second, this process can take up to 600 hours per film. But sitting in seats that are perfectly synchronised with all on-screen action creates a realistic immersive experience, adding a new dimension to on-

board cinemas. As technology becomes more versatile, so yacht owners become more demanding. Suppliers must find ever-increasing ways to make the AV installations on board one yacht stand out and be better than the next.

Design, technology and secret spaces Alessandra De Siati, CEO of Eggzero says “What we call design technology is nothing but the clever integration of technology into design. It’s a totally different approach to technology and systems integration. This approach leads us to design advanced solutions which push the limits of what’s available on the mainstream market, making one-off requests and expectations available to those who are looking for something new and exclusive. “Imagine walking into a room where, at the merest touch of a tablet screen, you can access your own secret space. Come rain or shine you decide your own weather forecast for the day. The room’s ambience follows the mood of the images you’re watching and the music you’re listening to, and the furniture participates in the emotion of

the moment with you. One of the latest projects installed by Eggzero has been designed just like that, for a client who wished to have a private hidden space within a wider common area. “We called this La Dolce Vita,” continues De Siati. “We designed a round secret room concealed by automated swivelling doors, with integrated LED lighting fixtures. The hidden room reveals a reading space and a cinema theatre with incredible technology features. The whole idea of this space was to let the client walk into another dimension, a more emotional space that could reflect his mood at that very moment. We created a special round ceiling with monitors playing different elements in nature: from clear skies to a total eclipse of the sun.”

Tech innovations and 9D In-wall speakers that deliver dialogue with breathtaking clarity while remaining entirely hidden behind an acoustically transparent fabric are an innovation found aboard some superyachts; projectors boasting enough light output to allow viewing in bright daylight on deck (with screens as large as table tennis tables) are another. Advanced New Technologies (ANT) is currently investigating superyacht theatres and cinemas that will in the near future offer a 9D experience. This technology will combine 3D film with physical effects including chair movements and multisensory effects like smoke, rain, lighting and special aromas. 9D is set to provide a totally immersive

experience which commences as soon as you enter the room. It is created by the growing and shrinking of the theatre walls and ceiling with a highly specialised hydraulic process, putting the audience at the centre of the action by creating an atmosphere that mirrors the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s location. When the movie features a car chase through open countryside, the on-board cinema will open out to create a vast space whose gigantic screen enhances the feeling of scale. If the chase plunges into tight streets and narrow alleyways, the walls and ceiling will close in to give the viewer a real sense of the drama and claustrophobia.

Flawless integration A key requisite aboard the 54m Admiral Sea Force One superyacht is Eggzero's seamless integration of sophisticated LED lighting and music systems. Technology blends with the yacht's flowing curves and rigid lines to facilitate a complete immersion into another world. The yacht's formidable home cinema and disco bar are just two of the more fantastic AV entertainment experiences to be found on board. Another remarkable installation was during the recent refit of a large superyacht. AV specialists Veritais equipped the shadow yachtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helicopter hangar to function not only as an on-board cinema with two 5.6m (220-inch) projection screens, but also as a state-of-theart automated disco complete with nucleus lighting effects, LED pin spots, a motorised mirror ball with lasers and two smoke machines.

Its ship-wide, multi-zone music system also allowed music held on a central server to be played anywhere on board (including the external helideck) via four high-powered waterproof speakers. “We really enjoyed this project,” commented Veritais’s MD, David Milner. It’s always a pleasure to work for an owner, designer and Captain with such ambitious plans, and the seriously large internal spaces within this yacht gave us scope to create something really special. For anyone who enjoys movies, music and dancing, this has to be the ideal boat.”

4K: Superyacht super TV Even the humble TV is getting a superyacht upgrade. Many people are unaware that such incredible technology is available or feasible, whereas others have more outlandish ideas of what they are looking for from their AV solutions. As technology continues to progress, 4K and 8K televisions will be the next big thing on everyone’s wish list, offering the highest resolution television experience possible. 4K TVs are the next generation in ultra-high definition quality. They offer four times the resolution of standard high definition (HD) and offer a fully immersive experience. Home (or superyacht) viewing is much closer to what the film makers wanted it to look like and it brings us true, glasses free 3D TV. Even without 3D, the ultra-high definition images are 16-times sharper than those on a normal television. As

well as voice activation and motion controls (meaning an end to searching for the remote control), 4K televisions can also offer two separate full HD pictures, without the need to split screens. This is ideal for gaming, with each person watching independently through light and easy to wear glasses. With such advanced technology, only a few broadcasters can currently take advantage of its full potential because as programs must be recorded in 4K, but many are already moving over to shoot new footage in this format. Sony appears to be leading the way in the west with their new X series of 4K TVs and Japan is hoping to become the first country in the world to introduce 4K broadcasting nationally, with an ambitious target date of July 2014. Interestingly, YouTube already supports 4K video footage if the graphics card in your PC can handle it, most digital cameras take

still shots in at least 4K resolution and Netflix has declared that it intends to have 4K streaming via the Internet within two years. While the rest of the world is still messing around with 4K, Japan’s NHK public broadcasting service aims to carry out its first trials of 8K resolution in 2016, with an eye to having the infrastructure in place to start broadcasting to the entire country in time for the 2020 Olympics. This is technology of the future in which images are rendered more realistic and lifelike than ever before, giving the impression of experiencing the action in real time.

HD TV and liquid pool tables Meanwhile, Jetstream in Monaco is about to launch HD TV over the internet. This system will give guests access to all of their favourite TV channels wherever their superyacht is sailing – it just requires a 2.2MB Internet connection. How about TVs at the end of the bath fitted with touch-screen controls so that, with a tap of the damp toe, you can switch channels or turn the volume up? Paul Rose, from AV supplier Icon Connect, says, “That’s no problem.” How about a pool table that is made to look like a swimming pool, so that when the ball skims across its surface it creates the visual effect of a stone skittering across the surface? This is absolutely possible, stunning and indeed available right now.

The invention of the Apple iPad has revolutionised the control of on-board AV systems. Hi-tech parties and prayer rooms Icon Connect has also created a sky lounge that converts to a full nightclub featuring a DJ mixing desk, sound system, lights, lasers and smoke machines. They have also installed a 2.6m (103”) plasma screen as part of an on-board lounge area while adding a 2.1m (84”) screen in the owner’s study. On one yacht Paul Rose fitted a permanent DJ desk to the sundeck. On another, he supplied a beach party sound system that packs up into its own cases (together with portable generator) ready to be taken ashore to continue the party on the sand. If you don’t want the weight of a real aquarium inside your yacht, there are alternatives. One 80m superyacht has a virtual aquarium; an entire room with floor-to-ceiling technology that reproduces the ambience of a real aquarium. Another smaller yacht with owners in the Middle East was fitted with a virtual compass. Clients seeking to pray facing Mecca need only look at the floor in the prayer room to see in which direction it lies.

Superyacht to mass market Last year SYOG reported that gesture controlled AV was emerging in the superyacht market. A year later and the release of the Xbox one has brought this new technology to the mass market. Seamless interactivity with technology is now becoming the norm and this industry moves at a shockingly quick pace. Moore’s law states that over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors on integrated circuits doubles approximately every two years. With this in mind, just think what future technology will be available by next year.

iUbiquity and mediaglass Van Berge Henegouwen in Holland has created a specialist division to deal with their most outlandish of AV solutions: the LuxperienceLab. This is headed up by design manager Anouk van Mil, who recently joined VBH. She says, “We sell experiences, not just products. We custom design and build installations for our clients.” She cannot reveal the exclusive yachts in which VBH is involved, but talks of one with plans to install a video wall measuring 2m by 3m and an LED ‘mediaglass’ – a device that lets owners convert large areas of glass, such as windows or the yacht’s side screens into lighting displays for events such as discos. “When set to respond to music, the signal produced is analysed and used as input for custom software. The algorithms use this to create visual lighting effects that are nothing short of mind-blowing,” said Van Mil.

“You cannot call any of this ‘crazy’ because by doing so, you would be criticising the client,” says Paul Rose of Icon Connect. “I believe it is our job to put a smile on the superyacht owner’s face. Everything we do is out of the ordinary and even extraordinary in its own way, but it is what the client wants that matters here. We must never forget that these superyachts are pleasure craft, first and foremost.”

Faux fires If you thought AV was just about movies and music, it’s time for a rethink. A growing trend is that of 3D holographic display. ANT has recently brought an ingenious virtual fireplace to the superyacht marketplace. It is a display platform where real objects mix with virtual layers to produce a stunning realistic fire effect, creating a spectacular centrepiece for any room. As well as using the latest holographic technology, the 3D virtual fireplace sets the mood and creates the perfect ambience for social occasions. The virtual flames supply the visual effects, with realistic crackling fire sound effects coming from the built-in speakers. The fireplace can be integrated into existing or new customised furniture and the content can be changed by swapping the Flash Card (or remotely via the Internet). Consider changing the colour of the flames, swapping the homely fireplace effects for those of an aquarium or selecting a new 3D holographic experience from a library of ideas…the only limit is your imagination! n

The VSAT visionaries Future-proof your vessel with the three S’s of superyacht technology: size, stability and system

n the world of superyacht technology, one of the most dynamic sectors is that of VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminals) and ship-to-shore communications. Ka-band and phased array antennae are just two of the latest buzzwords to enter the superyacht owner’s vocabulary so prepare to update those dictionaries and meet tomorrow’s technologies, today.

App, app and away Increased media consumption driven by the desire of forward-thinking owners to stay connected is omnipresent. With the proliferation of online activities requiring immediate access to always-on connections, the volumes of data consumed by mobile devices is growing exponentially. Day-on-day developments make it imperative for owners to fully consider the future implications of the technologies installed on their yachts during today’s build, refit and upgrade projects. Charter guests with tech addictions and online lives to lead will be drawn to the superyacht system that is more iPhone 5 than 1990s flip-phone, as will potential buyers.

What is VSAT? A professionally designed and implemented communication infrastructure will provide the convenience of a land-based Internet connection, even when accessed from the open ocean. Factors to consider when weighing up Internet at sea options include; coverage, total cost of ownership and future proofing. Terry Birch, head of engineering at Selex ES Yacht Technologies, explains, “The prime method of Internet access at sea is VSAT. This provides access to data 24/7 with speeds increasing year on year based on the 14Ghz Ku-band, offer speeds of up to 8MB per second, otherwise known as Mbps.” VSAT antennae work by receiving information from satellites and then delivering this (often via WiFi) to user devices on board. Data is returned from these devices to the VSAT antennae then on to the satellite, which then transfers it to a land earth station (LES) to distribute via land networks.

Because size matters The first two S’s in the superyacht telecoms triumvirate are size and stability. Choosing VSAT antennae often creates a conflict of interest. Superyacht owners want smaller antennae to maintain the pleasing silhouette of their vessels, but the ugly truth is that bigger is currently better. Larger antennae provide better quality and a faster, more reliable service over greater coverage areas, and they are also less affected by atmospheric disturbances. Smaller coastal

cruisers in ideal conditions can get by with smaller antennae, but ocean-going or sailing vessels will need three-axis stabilisation in order to secure a reliable VSAT service. Antennae with two-axis stabilisation cannot compensate for the rolling and pitching movements causing them to point away from the satellite.

Larger antennae provide better quality and a faster, more reliable service over greater coverage areas. The Ka-band debut The third S lingers just within reach, and stands for system. The brand new and highly anticipated Ka-band VSAT system will burst onto the marine telecoms market during the currency of this book, bringing with it increased data speeds of significantly more than 10Mbps and at reduced costs than the existing C-band and Ku-band systems. One potential downside of Ka-band is that its digital signal could be more weather sensitive than other bands (C- and Ku-bands) and may be highly affected by rain fades. Global Xpress is one of the new highbandwidth, small antenna Ka-band services.

Inmarsat aims to have three of its satellites in orbit and in beta test by the end of 2013, with its full constellation operational from 2014. Once running, this will offer superfast mobile broadband with download speeds of up to 50Mbps through a 60-100cm antenna. Bringing together speed, light antennae and a global service, Global Xpress is set to become a vital on-board communication tool. Imtech Marine is one superyacht-specific reseller of Inmarsat’s mobile satellite communication services. Eric van den Adel, its managing director, said, “We have a long-standing relationship with Inmarsat. The combination of its Ka-band and L-band options with our systems portfolio and worldwide network is an unbeatable one.” Terry Birch from Selex firmly recommends incorporating multiple routes to the Internet. He said, “A fairly standard fit would be VSAT as the primary communications medium, with an Inmarsat Fleet Broadband (FB) as backup for when the VSAT is out of coverage. Downsides of FB are the airtime package itself, which can be costly, and the fact that its data throughput is not as high as VSAT’s. As airtime and system providers, we have seen the level of mobile data traffic grow across all types of marine customers. In particular, VSAT systems have gone from being nice-to-have, to being a business and mission-critical system as technologies that make better use of the bandwidth are continually introduced to give a better user experience.” MTN Nexus™, MTN’s next generation network, will be incorporating standard Ku-band

and HTMS (High Throughput Multi-Spot Beam Satellite) technology as well as other frequencies including Ka-band and wireless broadband. Connectivity, coupled with caching and computing tools such as cloud computing, products and apps, will further optimise the user experience. Derik Wagner, managing director of MTN Yacht Services comments, "The beauty of MTN Nexus™ is that owners, guests and crew will benefit from the latest hybrid connectivity technologies, a distributed cloud platform, a consumptionbased business model and innovative applications and services geared to greatly improve connectivity at sea...and at the best value.

Antenna choice To protect the communications budget from rapid product obsolescence, select upgradeable antennae that allow for ready modem swapping for access to more than 100 VSAT service providers. As with unlocked mobile telephones, this then makes it easier to switch service providers should better deals and faster service become available. Antennae that offer Ku-band today and can work with Ka-band in the future, are also a wise investment. Palma-based Jan Holmen represents Maritime Network Systems. He said, “In the future, many companies will provide Ka-band coverage for areas with high traffic density, and Ku-band for more remote areas and at sea. Antennae with support for both are already available from Sea Tel.”

A final consideration should revolve around service depots. No matter how good the warranty appears, getting service away from a yacht’s home port can be problematic. MTN’s Technical Services Department has designed three hands-on training courses based on the principles of satellite communications specific to maritime VSAT technology: an Onboard Course (for captains and crew), an Operator’s Course (for VSAT operators) and an Engineer’s Course.

Fleet Broadband (FB) Marine satellite antenna builder Intellian has introduced three innovative new models for Inmarsat’s FB. Backed by a three-year warranty, each includes a broad range of IP and networking -related features such as IP routing, firewall capability and vessel fleet tracking. Intellian’s high performance FB150 provides global, high quality data and voice services for a myriad of applications in a compact and lightweight above-deck unit. The FB250 allows commercial vessels to enter the broadband arena at a low initial investment, while the FB500 is Intellian’s fastest solution, for intensive use on hard-working superyachts. All provide simultaneous voice and data services and have compact and reliable hardware; IP connection for email, internet and fax; SMS and LAN interfaces; single and multiuser router features with IP handset interface; and stylish matching domes. It is worth noting that FB offers a limited connectivity (432KBPS shared contention) and a pay per use pricing model (per time or KB usage).

Goodbye dome, hello ‘phased array’ In time, flat-profile high-gain ‘phased array’ antenna systems will replace the familiar sight of large moving parabolic dish antennae in their domes. Some manufacturers have successfully tested revolutionary new flat antennae, that are just one inch thick, on geostationary satellites. Built using thousands of static, electronically self-steerable semi-conductors, these nearinvisible antennae can already be built into aircraft fuselages, news van rooftops or military vehicles, enabling high-speed connectivity without an antenna that points directly at a satellite. Since 2005, London’s Phasor Solutions has been developing new phased array antenna technology for commercial and defence satellite communications markets. Their patented antennae allow travellers and operators in trains, planes, ships and military vehicles to obtain high bandwidth communications in the world’s most remote locations. At just an inch tall and with no moving parts, the antennae can fit any surface and are considered by the manufacturer to be more reliable than existing systems.

Early adopters Within the marine industry, superyachts are early adopters in the communications technology sector and demand is growing more quickly than on commercial vessels. While Merchant Navy captains need only communicate with their head office, superyacht

users include owners, guests, captains and crew – with voracious appetites for data and the goodies that lie therein. Video streaming is standard; iPlayer Global and Netflix are all in great demand in the superyacht seas. Dealing with on-board usage can be tricky. By default it has become the responsibility of the Captain to keep the network running – often an unwanted task for those who went to sea to become masters of yachts, not networks! Shore-based networks benefit from a full IT department, but on board, things are different. Ashore, bandwidth, usage and performance can be monitored but, until now, the esoteric tools to do so have meant that only certified network engineers can interpret the results. The superyacht industry’s IT needs have matured to the point that intelligent bandwidth monitoring has become a necessity – a challenge identified by the son of a superyacht owner while on board his father’s yacht. He realised that with the increasing importance placed on a ship’s Internet connection (which started as a novelty, morphed into a fun addition and is now a critical part of the superyacht experience), marine-centric network monitoring tools would become essential to the smooth running of the ship. He noted that as internet dependence grew, so did the frustration of those trying to use the network. Costas Charalambos is sales director at Global Marine Communications (GMC). He said, “We believe the owner’s browsing experience should not be adversely

affected by that of a member of the ship’s company, and that the owner’s internet packets should be delivered ahead of any others on board to ensure that the best possible service is experienced by the chap signing the cheques.” The Bandwidth Optimiser and Security Server (BOSS) system presents this information in a clear and meaningful way across all devices used by an authorised user. There are times when a Captain may wish to grant internet access only to senior crew and guests or perhaps to impose a ‘speed limit’ on a particularly heavy user. In short, the system provides levels of control previously unheard of and does so with minimal or no investment by the Captain beyond the initial set-up when crew budgets are first established, putting the Captain firmly in charge of this very important resource. BOSS does not record sites visited, so if the owner browses www.SellMyBoat.com or the Captain logs into www.SackMyCrew.com, it will remain their little secret! Tested aboard the White Rose of Drachs, everyone enjoyed a hugely improved user experience once meaningful

rules were placed on crew and guests to ensure a consistent level of service for all.

Future-proofing MTN Nexus™ combines three critical components into one network that, until now, have never been combined into one maritime communications solution: a hybrid satellite and wireless broadband network, a cloud computing–based optimisation platform, and new products and services enabled only through this hybrid solution to enhance the atsea connectivity experience. Plans are underway at GMC for new BOSS system modules. One such is a ‘heartbeat’ monitor to oversee essential components of a ship’s network, notifying pre-arranged individuals using an escalation procedure should any of them fail. This way if Wi-Fi access in the master suite fails whilst the owner is away, this can be rectified long before the owner is inconvenienced. GMC is also developing Social Network modules, designed to prevent crew members from discussing VIPs until it is safe to do

so, as well as a mast shadow module using predictive techniques to determine when a ship can expect to lose its connection. So what else lies around the corner? 4G LTE is already being launched globally, often with very low subscription rates and high bandwidth offerings. This is likely to affect the demand and price for VSAT as crews switch to 4G LTE services when a yacht is near shore. Rumours are rife concerning a combined 3G or 4G data device that straps a number of radios together, combining their data pipes to provide huge bandwidth at a low price. In the shape-shifting waters of marine telecoms, the only thing that SYOG can predict with any certainty is that the speed of technological change will be relentless. But rapid obsolescence and the quest for the world’s most sought-after equipment will give superyacht owners something to discuss over their canapés at Cannes. The wise owner will seek counsel from the experts listed in our reference section, and in online resources like Yachting Pages. n

CIR. Look at options for the Committed Information Rate (CIR) or dedicated and guaranteed bandwidth to avoid sharing. Steer away from using shared networks for Voice over IP (VoIP), Skype and streaming services. Your provider can help calculate your optimum CIR rate

The VSAT checklist Educate. Acquire basic VSAT knowledge before committing to anything – this is not a straightforward decision to make

24/7 support. Choose a provider with 24/7/365 network operations and technical support. Check staffing levels, holiday cover, support centre locations, languages spoken and contingency plans in case of emergency. Radio silence when the owner is aboard is not an option

Evaluate. Get references from two or three providers before signing. Don’t be rushed into something that looks cheaper on paper: small print invariably has large ramifications

Antenna. Select the appropriate VSAT dish (antenna) for your bandwidth and coverage needs. A smaller dish to suit design concerns and budgets may not provide a strong enough signal or coverage area

Connectivity. Choose the right VSAT dish (antenna) for your communications needs. On-board connectivity is essential, as is its quality. Cheaper services may cost more in the long run through ruined travel experiences for owners and guests

Flexibility. Check that any agreements have flexible options and that you’re not locked into a rigid and lengthy contract. Those allowing pauses (when in dry dock) and sudden bandwidth upgrades (busy charter weeks) are preferable

Contention. Check on shared ‘contention’ (competing with other yachts for bandwidth). A 10:1 ratio means contending with nine other superyachts. In peak season, contention increases and speeds decrease

Fair use. Confirm the provider’s fair access policy (FAP) and do not assume you’ll be free to use your connection as you want. Some limit certain high-bandwidth applications or cap service at peak times. Check terms and conditions for additional costs to raise a connectivity cap – this could double or triple a stated rate card price

Crew. Crew need to – and expect to – stay connected while away. Crew usage should be evaluated and managed, even if perhaps restricted. Cutting crew off from the world may lead to mutiny…

any believe that piracy is the security issue most likely to affect superyachts. Others will tell owners that the physical securing of the yacht and the treasures it may carry is the real worry. Yacht managers explain quietly that the biggest threat to a superyacht is the crew itself, while for many celebrities on board a charter yacht, the paparazzi pose the greatest risk.

Tough questions When it comes to piracy, most superyacht owners are only too aware of the physical threats to their yachts. Little is left to chance when it comes to protecting their vulnerable yachts against piracy. Many owners have armed their vessels with the most sophisticated, military standard security including escape pods, former SAS security guards, blinding lasers, long-range acoustic devices, citadels and even submarines. Feeling safe and protected at sea has never been more important. But how does piracy affect the superyacht industry? Is it possible for an owner to have a maritime security detail on board without it being intrusive, or affecting his or her familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enjoyment on board? Is it reasonable for a crew to be sailing in these areas in the first place without adequate protection?

In the media Hardly a week goes by without another report of an attack by pirates or news of a vessel

captured. The use of reputable maritime security specialists has many benefits. They can provide security advice; intelligence; crew training; vessel hardening; a physical presence on board; and the option of the use of arms should this become absolutely necessary. Most of the time weapons are never used, and the real value of a maritime security team lies in giving the superyacht owners and crew the confidence and support they need.

Security organisations The security specialists themselves benefit from being part of a team or organisation. The Security Association for the Maritime Industry (SAMI) was launched in 2009. It is designed to support the maritime industry, including the superyacht communities, by providing a range of solutions for specific security risks, either by using the manpower of service providers or technology and hardware. The Maritime Asset Security and Training group (MAST) are members of SAMI and are maritime security and piracy protection specialists. They believe that superyacht owners are turning to close protection amid fears of an escalation in maritime crime due to the growing instability in North Africa. MAST provides a range of technological and physical protection services to owners of superyachts around the world and has seen a marked increase in calls from owners, captains and managers about the security of yachts sailing near the African continent.

111

David Gates, head of sales at MAST, said, “We’re receiving more requests for security consultations and VIP close protection support from superyacht owners. The Suez Canal is a key route in the seasonal movement of superyachts from the Mediterranean and, as a result, owners are relying on measures such as armed transit teams to ensure the safe passage of their vessels.” Trust is at the heart of Orcas Security Associates, whether chaperoning children to school or living and working alongside you and your crew on board your yacht, they offer a fully licensed and highly qualified team of security specialists who can keep everyone at bay and deter those that come too close. They also provide you, your loved ones and your crew with the skills to help protect yourselves, through tailored security awareness training that will enable you to recognise possible risks, be alert to the threats around you and deal with them effectively and confidently.

Cyber threats – the invisible enemy Even with the world’s most high-tech security measures in place, some superyacht owners still leave themselves exposed to an even more unscrupulous, targeted and aggressive security attack. It seems superyacht owners and crew can be extremely inefficient when it comes to addressing another real, yet often overlooked threat to superyacht owners: cyber security. Worryingly, many of these attacks often happen without anyone being aware.

Flat-pack panic Superyachts visiting destinations solely for recreational purposes require different approaches in security planning. When it comes to hardware, there are plenty of security options from yard-fitted devices to handheld specialist equipment. Steve Brook is the business development director for The Panic Room

For high profile superyacht guests, it is the camera flash that infringes their security.

Company. They manufacture and install panic rooms, using flat-pack assembly techniques, inside well-protected areas on superyachts. He explains, “Shortly after we established our company, we identified interest from the superyacht industry. Our portable product has immense appeal as it is quickly installed with no welding and minimal need for specialist equipment or training. It also offers ballistic and blast protection and can keep between two and 24 people safe for up to five days with ship-to-shore communication. An independent power supply, air filtration, the ability to activate a smoke screen and basic survival essentials from fresh water to toilets can also be provided.”

Paparazzi peril For high profile superyacht guests, it is not the flash of cordite that worries them, it is the camera flash that infringes their security. Paul Kerr of Photonic Security Systems has, with the aid of others, developed the SMU-100 system. It emits a dazzling wall of light and allows security teams or crew using it to harmlessly engage potential inbound threats at a distance and to interrogate them. Resembling a rifle, the laser can dazzle and incapacitate targets up to 500m away with a wall of light up to three metres squared, and even has an infrared scope to spot infiltrators in poor visibility. Looking at the intense beam

causes a short-lived effect similar to staring at the sun, forcing the target to turn away. Paul Kerr, a former Royal Marine says, “Using the device temporarily impairs the vision of the paparazzi and keeps them out of their camera range without causing physical injury while doing so.” Secure Yacht specialises in technologically advanced security concepts geared for the protection of superyachts, their owners and the assets on board. They liaise directly with naval architects and shipyards during the design and build process and can retrofit specialist security equipment when dealing with an existing vessel. Director Dean La Vey confirms, “I have fitted biometric security devices aboard several superyachts. I do so linking specialist biometric readers to my own proprietary Net2 Marine, a computer networked access control system that is exceptionally quick and easy to learn and operate.”

Unwelcome guests While physical security protection measures are important, many superyacht owners are increasingly aware of seemingly more mundane security threats such as robbery. John Hodder heads up his own firm called Cattewater Projects. He said, “We are frequently asked to analyse the extra security risks of carrying valuable art on board, and to recommend ways of reducing risk of theft or damage using additional or improved security.” According to

116

John, one common problem is that of pan and tilt CCTV cameras. John explains that these are often left wrongly aligned, and he recommends replacing them with fixed versions. These then monitor valuable art using discreet security systems, employing miniature electronic devices affixed to frames or display cases, to allow remote satellite tracking if removed.

Security shortcomings In a bid to highlight some superyacht security shortcomings, one company told SYOG, “We regularly test the boarding security employed on superyachts. We have never yet been detected doing so. A member of our team then places printed red cards inside owners’ areas or the engine room, to let crew know someone uninvited has been aboard.” On one yacht, in Turkey, they took the owner’s 9mm pistol from his suite, returning it to him at his home the next day simply to demonstrate how insecure his yacht really was. The world of superyacht security has changed significantly in recent years and essentially, is an integral part of superyacht design, and most effective when incorporated at build stage. Piracy nightmares aside, it is the threat of attack or theft in port and at anchor that remain the most likely security breaches a superyacht will suffer. These scenarios cause the largest concerns to owners and captains alike, and it is these areas that generally require the most attention to detail. n

Sail versus Motor SYOG investigates the love-hate relationship between 'stink pots' and 'blow boats'

o sail or to motor? Clearly there are differences in the construction, operation and enjoyment of each type of craft, but which elements should be considered when making the vital decision of sail versus motor? We questioned a select panel of Superyacht Owners’ Guide experts and their responses are enlightening, educative and often surprising.

Though multi-deck motor yachts predominate the world’s fleet of superyachts, there is a significant number of sailing yachts, too. Statistics suggest that this figure already

118

exceeds 10% of the fleet, a percentage thought to be on the increase. Each type of yacht has its supporters. Motor yacht owners wax lyrical about the high volumes of space aboard their vessels dedicated to recreational use, while sail boat aficionados love the sheer romance of it all, the excitement of the race, and the more eco-friendly nature of their craft. There are detractors, too. Owners of motor yachts call sails ‘laundry’, with sailing crew referred to as ‘rag monkeys’. The sailing crowd return the favour with vigour, referring to motor yachts as ‘stink pots’ and their crews as ‘grease monkeys’.

Communications: Roger Horner, e3 Roger is group managing director with communication specialist e3. He came up with the company idea while captaining the Tobago Clipper, giving the defining moment as “too many blue azure bays and palm fringed beaches!”

What communications advantages does each yacht have? Motor yachts’ satellite communication systems have tracking dishes inside their big white domes, which can suffer from ‘mast shadow’, a term used to describe what happens when a fixed part of the yacht blocks the signal between the dish and the distant satellite. Motor yachts have more opportunities to find a 360˚ view of the sky so that satellites can be seen with fewer obstructions than on sailing yachts, due to the latter’s masts and rig. Motor yachts can usually sport larger dishes than sailing yachts, providing stronger reception over greater areas. With sail vessels, certain lightweight antennae can be mounted much higher than on motor yachts and can work over a greater distance. The same applies to VHF radio services and VHF and UHF tender tracking antennae. Any line-of-sight service

benefits from being mounted higher. The quality of the cable used to reach very high antennae is critical, too, so as not to undermine the height benefit with the loss of signal along the cable. In terms of sail material, some carbon fibre sails have been known to obstruct certain radio frequencies, causing mast shadow for antennae mounted below the head of the sail.

What problems can heeling and rolling create? Excessive movement will accelerate the wear and tear on tracking dishes. Though today’s tracking antennae are designed to work in most conditions at sea, it’s important to be aware that the movement felt at deck level is dramatically amplified at height, so any antennae with moving parts should ideally be mounted as low as possible to reduce wear and tear. Keeping a clear view of the sky should not be forgotten.

Interior design: Ken Freivokh Ken is a Californian-born multi-disciplinary designer renowned for his out-of-the-box design solutions. Following his architectural studies he graduated with a Masters in Design from the School of Industrial Design (Engineering) at the Royal College of Art, London.

How do interior design considerations differ? In terms of overall appearance, the only differences relate to the ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s styling preferences. However, we have found that sailing yacht owners will temper styling concerns with practicality. They are less likely to insist on vast open spaces for entertaining; expect more appropriately nautical features; and often place more emphasis on functionality and maintenance.

Which yacht is more expensive to design? The difference is unlikely to be significant. Items such as handholds and tie downs are needed for sailing yachts and a requirement for lightweight construction is also more likely to be suggested by the naval architect, which has a cost connotation.

What design constraints do heeling and pitching pose? It is quite interesting that, in most circumstances, sailing yachts offer the most stable and pleasant platform. Even with efficient zero-speed

120

stabilisers, a motor yacht is more likely to feel more lively and unstable. This is because rolling and pitching would be of a higher velocity without the major stabilising effect of the sailing yachtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s keel and rig. However, a sailing yacht when underway will heel to greater angles, and will stay heeled. This should be considered when designing stairs, doors, showers, baths and handholds.

Do you prefer sail or motor? Statistically, many superyachts do not spend enough of their lives navigating the oceans so it is largely immaterial whether their owner chooses motor or sail. However, for owners who do intend to enjoy their yacht and to travel to distant places, a sailing yacht will undoubtedly provide the greatest enjoyment; that true feeling of quietly gliding through the ocean with the power of the wind. From a green perspective, most certainly the sailing yacht can claim to be the better option, with by far the lower carbon footprint. Sailing yachts add further levels of interest and technique that must appeal strongly to all of us who really love yachts and the sea.

Naval architecture: Ed Dubois After graduating in 1974, Ed went on to design many winners of the major offshore racing trophies around the world. He has sailed on many of his racing designs over the years and still sails avidly. Living next to the sea with his family, sailing is very much on the agenda!

Which is a more involved design and why? A sailing yacht’s design is normally more involved and time consuming than a motor yacht’s of equal volume. The naval architecture of motor yacht hulls is generally more straightforward than for sailing hulls, though both require skill and full consideration of the various factors governing the concepts. The beauty in designing sailing yachts is to create the right balance for the vessel to sail well in all conditions and to be totally seaworthy. It’s also necessary to consider the correct distribution of structure with regards to supporting the ballast keel, the mast step, the rigging chain plates and the highly loaded high-aspect ratio rudder that is usual in modern sailing yachts. With regard to styling, both motor yacht and sailing yacht outboard shapes and lineflow are a vital part of our work and create the character that appeals to each individual

122

client. Usually, the volume of a motor yacht’s superstructure is far greater than a sailing yacht’s and therefore this consideration for motor yachts is more time consuming.

Do owners have different attitudes towards design? Sailing yacht clients are probably – and I hesitate, as this is a slight over-generalisation – more aware of their environment and are drawn to the natural force of the wind over the sea. Ancient seafaring history usually fascinates them and their motivation to build a large yacht is often, if not always, rooted in this passion.

Do you prefer sail or motor? I began yacht design out of a passion for sailing and the sea, alongside a competitive instinct to design yachts to win the major offshore races. My particular background is therefore built on sailing yacht design, which remains my passion.

Crew recruitment: Laurence Reymann, YPI Crew Laurence started her specialist yacht crew agency in 2002, recruiting at all levels from deckhands to captains. She has established a proven ability to match the right crew and captains with superyacht owners and their yachts worldwide.

Which type of vessel is hardest to find crew for? Sailing yachts are generally harder to recruit for, especially under 35m as this is a niche market. Analysis of our 2012 activity shows that 89% of our jobs related to motor yachts,11% to sail. This is coherent with the worldwide fleet of yachts. It is our experience that, for instance, recruiting engineers for sailing yachts is always challenging as the pool of candidates with the drive, passion and interest to succeed and make a long-term impact on board a sailing yacht is small. Also, smaller work and living space make it challenging to attract mature crew who, with time and as they go up the ranks, will be lured away by motor yachts offering more space and therefore comfort of movements. There is a clear benefit in using established crew agencies to source crew for sailing yachts, as these agencies will have the adequate network to find the best crew.

125

What are the challenges in finding sailing crew? Newcomers, especially on the interior side, are often concerned about joining a sailing yacht if they have no prior recreational sailing experience. Of course, some are not able to overcome seasickness. On the deck side, many crew rise up the ranks in sail yachts to then switch to motor yachts at chief officer level, with a view to gaining senior officer experience before going for their first motor yacht Captainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job. Experienced sailing crew looking for work are generally in demand by motor yacht captains as they are perceived as having more of a well rounded hands on experience and a team spirited attitude.

Are there differences in crew salaries? Sailing yachts used to pay a lot less than motor yachts. These days the gap is narrowing and, in fact, large sailing yachts are often on a par with motor yachts. On the engineering side, we notice that fewer rotations are being offered on large sailing yachts, putting them at a disadvantage when recruiting. It is common knowledge that the worldwide shortage of engineers is contributing to the big push towards rotation in the yachting industry.

Yacht Management: Adrian McCourt, MD Watkins Superyachts Captain Adrian McCourt, MD of yacht managers Watkins Superyachts, sailed for many years on tankers and passenger ships, coming ashore to become a commercial fleet manager.

What are the management differences? Other than the obvious technical differences, there are few differences as we adapt our management services to each yacht as a unique entity. There is a tangible difference in crew outlook of course, as both sail and motor yacht crew have different reasons for being at sea. Sail yacht crew will often accept living arrangements that most motor yacht crews would not, but this doesn’t really pose a management obstacle per se. With the larger motor yachts; leave ratios and salary demands are higher.

Do motor and sail owners have different temperaments? There are exceptions to every rule, but we all understand to the sail owner; it’s the journey that counts, to the motor owner; it’s the destination. Sail purists will accept and have a passion for the sensation of wind and waves,

and may have less interest for the lifestyle choices of the motor sailor. After a day’s sailing, an owner will still want his beautiful sail boat to make a statement alongside the dock, rather than to look like a Grimsby smack.

Do you prefer sail or motor? I have a terrible confession to make. Despite having been at sea in numerous trades, roles and ranks for almost 40 years, I experienced sail for the first time only last year. The owner and Captain knew this and so, while teasing me mercilessly as a ‘stinkpot’ man, were keen to gauge my reaction. I quite liked it, but still hankered after sailing in a straight line. I rather enjoy being upright and have never been a huge fan of getting wet! I did enjoy the silence though…it was a bit like being on the bridge of a big cargo ship, but without the sound of sliding crockery!

127

Charter: Neil Moore, Burgess Neil has been with Burgess for over 18 years, 12 of which have been spent directing the charter division, which represents 50 yachts between 30m and 95m in the company's charter management programme.

What are the marketing differences for both charter types? Sailing yacht clients tend to be more knowledgeable about yachts and are more precise about what they want. Their requirements might range from a fast modern cruiser for exhilarating regatta sailing, to the comfort and style of a traditional motor yacht or a unique varnished classic. The level of detail tends to be greater and we target these clients with bespoke marketing material, especially when a yacht is on a round-the-world cruise or in an exotic cruising location. In terms of return on investment, overall demand is greater for motor yachts, but sailing yachts are often built to their ownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; specific requirements and so offer greater variety. A popular sailing yacht which ticks all the boxes can be in just as much demand as a popular motor vessel.

128

IMAGE: ÂŠwww.markoconnell.photodeck.com

Are sail and motor yacht charterers different? Most clients who like to charter sailing yachts are yachting enthusiasts, who have a passion for sailing and enjoy making passage under sail. These clients are more likely to have started sailing in dinghies and small yachts, moving up to superyachts later. Therefore, in the main, we are marketing sailing yachts to genuine enthusiasts, whereas people new to yachting tend to gravitate towards the facilities and space of a motor yacht.

Do some locations suggest sail over motor? Absolutely. The most obvious example of this would be the Caribbean. For anyone who likes to cruise, the trade winds of the Eastern Caribbean are perfect for sailing. There can also be quite a swell running in the open sea between islands during the high season months and so, the motion on a sailing yacht is often more comfortable than on a motor yacht. The steady winds allow guests to experience the thrill of a sailing yacht performing to its optimum. n

One man, five yachts A new concept in yacht ownership

138 Sponsored Feature

rawing on 80 years of combined experience in the yachting industry and developed by superyacht captain and veteran yacht management professional Werner Trotz, MarNav(Malta) Ltd wanted to develop an attractive yacht ownership package tailored to the present global economic climate. Over the last two years, they conducted strategic market and legal research to find out what makes yacht ownership attractive and beneficial for prospective owners. Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market demands innovative thinking to set you apart from competitors and The Marnav Program seems to have done just that.

A Fleeting glimpse In todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financial climate even the ultra-highnet-worth-individuals among us are having to consider what we spend, or at the very least make sure that any large expenditure has a sound business case behind it. Reacting to this MarNav, have provided a business venture

Even the ultrahigh-net-worthindividuals among us are having to consider what we spend.

that gives you, the customer, the opportunity to combine the benefits of chartering with the luxury of ownership and the enjoyment of sailing year round without the time restrictions of actually running your own business.

When one yacht is not enough Based in Malta they offer five exclusive, handselected commercial luxury superyachts sized 35m to 60m shared between selected owners. As an owner, you would have an equal share in the luxury fleet which includes an explorertype superyacht. The fleet is strategically positioned in the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top cruising areas in attractive pre-selected parts of the world. All five yachts are available for personal use in addition to generating cost-offsetting income through global commercial chartering, and each participating owner immediately profits from huge additional financial benefits associated with cost-effective fleet ownership. Not to mention the benefit of five superyachts to choose from in superb cruising locations around the world.

Zero hassle ownership This unique offer provides an efficient, low-cost opportunity for owners to fully indulge in the exclusive world of yachting. Further advantages include combined charter revenue, tax benefits and sharing of all other associated costs. From purchase to operation, the program simplifies ownership by taking care of all the administrative tasks required for commercial

yacht ownership. They take special pride in providing professional crews of the highest caliber who adhere to the highest standards of maritime compliance and provide outstanding provisioning and concierge services. They also ensure that all flag and class requirements such as registry, insurances and maintenance programs are kept up-to-date. Not that we think you would, but, should you wish to sell your ownership, withdrawing from the program is also quick and painless. You can offer it to the remaining owners, who have the right of first refusal. Should they all pass on the option, MarNav will buy your ownership and hold it in reserve for equal ownership distribution or a new owner. As an owner, you therefore get maximum enjoyment out of five yachts for the price of one, and can relax in the knowledge that no other ownership scheme is as comprehensively cost effective or makes such good business sense.

of time. Reservations are done easily online through a secure ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s login site, which also offers additional valuable information and suggestions for both up-and-coming hotspots and tried-and-tested locations. The yachts operate within a schedule in the Mediterranean, Caribbean, North America (East and West), the Pacific Islands, Indian Ocean and Asia so year round sailing is a genuine reality without incurring hefty ocean crossing expenses. Simply pick a continent to cruise, board a plane and lift anchor in a matter of hours. No more weeks of waiting for your yacht to complete an ocean crossing at high expense.

Company of Owners

North, south, east or west

All yachts are owned by the offshore company, MarNav(BVI) Ltd, in which only the owners are shareholders. This has the advantage that shareholders can trade their shares within their own company. To provide even more cost advantages with considerable commercial tax benefits, the vessels trade under the Maltese flag but remain owned by the BVI company.

When not pre-booked by the owners, each vessel is commercially chartered and marketed internationally through their well-developed network of charter agents and brokers. As part of the MarNav family of maritime navigators, you can look forward to a range of exciting new cruising options every six months ahead of the season. This allows you to plan and handpick your cruising weeks and locations in plenty

A truly flexible approach to superyacht ownership, The MarNav Program offers a fleet of business opportunities and the option to sail around the world at your leisure. A unique and tailored approach, this should be seriously considered whether you are looking for the next step up from chartering or want a nautical business that can essentially run itself. n

Successful chartering What makes a superyacht stand out from the crowd?

142

ome superyacht owners claim ‘Mine is bigger than yours’. But as charter guests swap stories of luxury adventures in superyachts while cruising fabulous destinations around the world, the ‘Mine is better than yours’ chant is gaining ground as the accolade to hold. SYOG goes undercover to unravel what makes a great charter. Bespoke with a capital B, the chartering of a superyacht creates a personally customised holiday experience that is hard to match anywhere on land. Go where you want, when you want; surround yourself with chosen guests; become indulged by ever-attentive crew; and discuss dinner with your own personal chef. You will never get it this good anywhere else. But with some 5,000 superyachts cruising around the world and a large percentage available for charter it makes you wonder: what makes one charter yacht more successful than her sisters? How does a superyacht owner make his or her vessel stand out from the crowd and attract the lion’s share of charter bookings?

To charter, or not to charter Ultimately, it is the superyacht owner who makes the most difference and everything else stems from his or her decision to do so. He must genuinely want to charter his yacht out in the market place, which means that quite apart from the money, he must want people to enjoy her as much as he does and make the yacht available for this purpose.

143

Welcome to the ultimate holiday experience. Whether it’s a family reunion, a long awaited honeymoon or just for the heck of it, a private charter is the only way to travel. Don’t just take it easy, take it easier. Your only job will be to enjoy being pampered by the crew, the unsurpassed beauty of the Greek Islands and the magic of a truly unique experience. You’ll have plenty of time to make unforgettable memories - the greatest luxury of all.

Michelle Blore, managing director of Dream Sailing says, “One quite often hears the phrase the owner isn’t really that interested in chartering. To my ears this says the owner has little respect for his or her clients so don’t expect the owner to pay much attention to their needs, the crew won’t be particularly motivated to deliver a great charter experience, and the yacht is probably over-priced.”

Well-equipped vessels A successful charter yacht will be well kitted out and this equipment will be in full working order. Something can always break during a charter due to bad luck but often the problem is poor maintenance or misuse. Responsibility for this goes right back to the owner, who must ensure a system is in place and funds are available to equip and maintain his yacht properly on a continual basis. Penelope Kellie, of Worldwide Yacht Charter and Tours, agrees that the positive input of an owner makes a huge difference to a charter yacht. She said, “I was once on board Silolona, owned by American Patti Seery who has lived in Indonesia for the last thirty years. Trust me, there is not much she does not know about anywhere in Indonesia. We cruised the Raja Ampat, West Papua area and Patti was the most wonderful guide. There were seventeen crew on board to look after the guests and nothing was too much trouble. You left your cabin and it was cleaned as if by a fairy within

145

two minutes. Once, arriving near some caves, I noticed the yacht’s tender moving off towing kayaks astern but thought nothing of it. Then Patti announced we were going to visit the caves. We got into another tender and set off into these caves in the middle of nowhere. There we found crew with kayaks ready to take each of us on a personally guided tour of the caves, cold drinks at the ready. What an amazing experience! On another occasion while using the kayak to paddle round an island in the early morning, we found the tender waiting for us on the other side ready to serve Bucks Fizz!”

Accessible owners Some yachts are harder than others to sell to potential charter guests. This is particularly true of explorer style yachts but an enthusiastic owner can make all the difference. The rugged appearance of the yacht can be off-putting to some but once guests have been on board they cannot believe the space available and often return for a repeat charter. Jacqui Lockhart, with Select Charter Services, is central agent for the 36m explorer yacht Private Lives. She says, “Over the years, the crew have done an excellent job but for me, the reason for the yacht’s continued success in an ever difficult market is due to the owner’s accessibility, commerciality and gentlemanly approach to charter. I recall several occasions when I contacted him to undertake a charter at short notice because I had been let down by another owner. He always made

146

his yacht available at short notice and dealt with the situation very smoothly. I believe this attitude is quite rare and it makes this yacht and her owner stand out from so many others.”

Oh Captain, my Captain The crew are always integral to a yacht’s success, especially the Captain. No matter how large or small a vessel, the Captain and his or her leadership style will significantly impact the atmosphere on board so it is important that he plays his part in making the yacht stand out from the crowd. Crew move around and when captains change it is common for crew to change, too. Younger crew such as deckhands and junior stewardesses may stay on a yacht for just one season and it is not unusual for changes to take place during a season. Michelle Blore does not see this as a problem. She says, “We have regular clients who often charter the same yacht with different crew and they have just as good a time as on previous occasions, so there’s nothing magical about ‘the crew’. That’s not to say that crew aren’t an important part of the mix, but if they have the right basic qualities and are properly trained and supported, they’ll do a good job.” Most crew want guests to enjoy themselves and, given the right training and tools, will apply themselves to achieving this. The advantage of a really good crew is that when the yacht is not on charter, they work hard to maintain the bits you cannot see. They do

not just rely on the superficial niceties such as clean decks and polished stainless steel, but equally service the toilets and ensure the water drains properly out of a shower. If the air conditioning is not working or the guests cannot be picked up in the tender because it has broken down, those guests are not going to be happy. Sometimes it takes a special crew to overcome a potentially disastrous charter and June Montagne, of Yachtzoo, described one charter that began with an enquiry from a tough business-like lawyer. She said, “Nothing seemed to be what he was looking for, he was negative about the whole process. Then we got to the paperwork stage. As a lawyer he wanted the standard Yacht Charter Agreement amended to include many clauses that weren’t even negotiable. Eventually he signed the contract and inevitably the funds took forever to arrive. If that wasn’t enough, the short-range weather forecast put the islands he was visiting in the track of an approaching tropical storm packing hurricane force winds. Thankfully the storm settled, the guests boarded on schedule and then spent a few days limited to sheltered anchorages close to the yacht’s base. All attempts to contact my client failed until I got hold of him after the charter. It turned out he could not have had a better time, the boat was excellent, the crew were fantastic, the food was out of this world and they’d enjoyed one of their best vacations ever!”

147

Charter guests are used to excellent food and expect high standards.

Cuisine, cuisine, cuisine Food quality on board is of paramount importance. Even if the accommodation is spotless and the crew excellent, a mediocre chef can spoil the guests’ enjoyment. Robert Shepherd, charter broker with Edmiston agrees. He said, “Once I match the yacht and location to my clients’ needs, the next thing I do is to ensure that the chef can work his or her magic.” Charter guests are used to excellent food and expect high standards – rivalling those of the top chefs ashore – as they spend much of their time on board eating. Leisurely breakfasts glide into lunch, which eases into late afternoon snacks followed by canapés just before sitting down to dinner! There is quality time on a charter – often not found in a normal busy life – to enjoy these meals in the company of family and friends, so when tremendous foods rounds off a fabulous holiday, it really is the icing on the cake. Superyacht chef Peter Quarrie understands this. He said, “I have one or maybe two days to get it right. The key to cooking well on charters is listening to what the guests want rather than trying to show them everything you can do. Some guests are happy to be led; others are more specific about their needs. A good chef will work well with the service team to figure out those needs straight away.” If guests experience inclement weather and holiday activities are interrupted then the food focus becomes even more important. Kevin Feinberg, head chef aboard 65m Seanna

148

agrees. He said, “I try to give guests an amazing week on board, serving meals prepared specifically to their palate using fresh, seasonal ingredients and also ensuring menus are relevant to the area in which the yacht is cruising. Good food and good wine play a key role in keeping guests happy if the weather isn’t perfect and can also save a charter if everything isn’t going quite to plan.”

Unique yachts If the superyacht owner and crew are the people part of a charter yacht’s success, the yacht itself is the physical embodiment of the holiday. For many potential charter guests she is the starting point when selecting their holiday home. Size, style, location and price are all important considerations. A few years ago price was rarely negotiable but this is no longer true; with an increased number of yachts available for charter and worldwide economic gloom, there is often room for discussion and discounts are more common. For the superyacht owner keen to charter this is a mixed blessing. By reducing the price more bookings may follow, while too low a figure means the charter won’t cover its costs. Making your yacht stand out is also all about deciding on style and this process begins when she is being built or refitted. Is she aimed at couples? If so add in king-sized beds. Is the boat for families? Consider twin beds and plenty of water toys. Where owners plan to use the boat regularly themselves, this too will reflect

149

their personal style and family requirements. Summer Osterman, a charter broker with Burgess, thinks the world’s largest luxury sailing catamaran Hemisphere offers a fantastic experience for family fun, providing the perfect marriage of luxury and adventure. She boasts a fully equipped PADI dive centre with two dive instructors as part of her crew. She features a wide array of water toys in addition to a 16.4m custom sports fishing tender. Summer said, “I have had charter clients on board whose children were constantly busy having the time of their lives with multiple new fun experiences in the water, under the safe and expert guidance of the crew. Additionally, the phenomenal chef is wowing the adults’ refined and sophisticated palates while also satisfying the simple requests of the young children, keeping the entire family happy.” Rupert Connor, of the Luxury Yacht Group, added, “It is taken for granted that the yacht will be clean, functional and well presented. The details that make it stand out are the ones that make it special.” Yachts that are stars in the charter fleet shine for different reasons as Sylvia Weston from Nicholson Yacht Charters points out. She said, “There are several favourite yachts I love to offer, and as we all know, the crew and personal attention levels are their top asset. However, what makes them stand out from the crowd are the added incentives that owners put into making the accommodations comfortable and beautiful and the variety of sporting gear offered. Extras such as an elevator, gym and even a piano make a yacht more

150

appealing.” Sometimes the crew themselves are the highlight and attract attention, though this comes with the risk that they may leave and need replacing. Rupert Connor highlights a deckhand on Solemates. He says, “It’s taken for granted that he’s good at keeping the yacht clean but it’s a real plus that he’s also won a world championship in the Laser class sailing.”

Added extras Robert Shepherd believes it is very difficult to single out one yacht from the 1,400-plus vessels he can offer, but says, “I would say Lazy Z for toys and family friendly crew, Alfa Nero for her swimming pool and aggressive design and Snowbird for her extensive art collection and expansive selection of toys.” Cindy Brown, president of Ultra Marine Yacht Charters definitely agrees that it is the added extras aboard that make it easy to attract charter guests. “New-fangled toys seem to be all the rage. From inflatable climbing walls to recreational islands or electric bikes, the trend is for toys that are designed with environmental awareness, something I am particularly happy to see.” She is enthusiastic about the 42m motor yacht Just Enough, saying, “I think she is a great charter boat without an outrageous price tag.” Again emphasising the importance of the owner’s input, Cindy concludes, “The owner’s enthusiasm in creating a charter yacht geared for fun with innovative amenities makes her one of my favourite picks this year.”

151

Seamless connectivity is paramount aboard charter superyachts, giving one vessel the technological edge over another. Set your superyacht apart from the fleet by incorporating world-leading and upgradeable communication systems into your refit or new-build wish list from the outset. SYOG spoke to leading satellite communications company MTN to glean their top three VSAT tips for charter. n

Check your itinerary Check that your provider’s coverage extends to each cruising destination, and that the yacht is correctly equipped. Credible VSAT companies will provide references from other vessels who have recently cruised those waters, for peace of mind. Don’t just assume there’ll be a satellite ahead.

Plan bandwidth ahead Evaluate your communications needs with your VSAT provider in advance, as the open ocean is the wrong place to realise a deficit in bandwidth. During peak periods, temporary bandwidth upgrades can be planned to keep owners and charter guests smiling.

Sing the cyber praises Superior connectivity aboard is a real differentiator, providing a competitive advantage in a tough charter market; use it to attract clients. Being able to provide high-speed internet, HD TV, VoIP, streaming and other services will nudge your vessel ahead of the pack.

To refit or rebuild, that is the question When multi-millions are involved, this type of R&R isn't as restful as it sounds

uy a palace in Versailles, a farm in the Gloucestershire countryside or a villa in a Tuscan olive grove and chances are that, once purchased, you will quickly decide to call in the decorators. No matter how perfect it seems at first, there will come a time when the tradesmen are called in to etch your distinctive mark on the property.

For potential new owners (and indeed experienced yachtsmen who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be separated from their loves for long), refit rather than new build is a very attractive option for time critical factors. To build a superyacht within the 50m range, an owner could expect a twoyear wait from concept to delivery, yet refitting one could reduce that time by two thirds.

The same is true of superyachts. In times when superyacht owners think to keep their craft rather than selling them, many choose to spend their money on the very best of refits instead. There are many reasons why owners consider a refit. It may be in a bid to increase the value or the performance of an existing yacht, or simply because they love their present yacht and want to keep it at its best. Alternatively, they may deliberately have bought a yacht that needs refitting, taking advantage of the financial benefits behind this approach.

The process the owner must first consider is often referred to as the three Rs of yachting: rebuild, restore and refit. These three words can, and sometimes do, blur together into one general term labelled refit. No matter how they are used, they generally involve the expenditure of large amounts of time and money for those at every level of involvement. Refits are frequently classified as minor, routine or major. A driving force behind major refits is the strong desire to ensure a yacht remains

A light bulb moment The changing regulations around the world can play an important role in choosing which of the three Rs to follow. Marco Struik, managing director of Struik & Hamerslag (an interior outfitters with facilities in Holland and the UK) tells us of a refit which was triggered by the worldwide energy saving rules banning the sale of traditional light bulbs. That refit, on a yacht we cannot name, is ongoing and will finish just as this book is published. Struik & Hamerslag had originally completed the interior of the yacht some 20 years ago and technically there was nothing wrong with the existing interior. Marco Struik takes up the story. “The owner was forced into asking himself the question, why, when you have to change the light fittings, do you not undertake some other changes at the same time? True, his yacht’s styling was around 20 years old, and was definitely different from contemporary fashion trends. So he became open to the idea of an interior refit rather than a maintenance project. As every owner knows, once an interior designer starts developing his ideas: creativity rules. The end result of that creativity has seen the yacht undergo a complete refit of the main saloon and dining area. “We have not simply removed the existing décor and replaced it with a new interior,” continues

in, or is brought into line with compliance of current regulations, particularly now that the MLC convention is in place and Port State Control inspections are becoming normal.

The process the owner must first consider is often referred to as the three Rs of yachting: rebuild, restore and refit. Marco. “By being smart and working with the owner and his team we have re-used those components that were still as good as new, rather than waste good elements. In practice, the structures of the storage units and basic constructions have been saved and re-used. Decorative surfaces and other visible elements were renewed. Unique elements, like decorative tabletops and items, have been saved and refinished for an extended life. At the end of the day, no superyacht owner wants to waste good material. The result will look as if the yacht has had a complete makeover. Her appearance will be totally different, even though the original interior structural fabric has been preserved and re-used for the greater part. Apart from saving precious money, the refit will have been completed in a much shorter time than if we had ripped the yacht apart.”

It’s a love thing If light bulbs were the trigger for a cosmetic makeover, then love was to blame for the

rebuild of superyacht Fenna. Originally built in The Netherlands, the owner of this motor yacht found Fenna in the USA. He fell in love with her classic lines and history and sought to restore her to her former glory. As is often the case with old yachts, the interior volumes were disappointing by modern day standards so he commissioned the Balk shipyard on the Dutch island of Urk to rebuild her, cutting the vessel in half and adding two metres to her overall length. Daan Balk, the yard’s managing director, said, “For us it was a very nice project. The yacht looks much better. The yacht gained a lot of volume in the interior, which made the owner incredibly happy and satisfied with the end result.” The same Dutch shipyard worked its magic on Berzinc, originally built by Camper & Nicholsons in the seventies. Here again, the owner was deeply in love with the classic lines of the yacht’s exterior, but did not like the traditional interior styling that he considered old fashioned. Daan Balk told us, “Designers became involved in creating a full redesign of the interior. Because they asked for some changes in the general arrangement we had to make some modifications in the deckhouses as well. But it turned out to be a successful refit and the yacht is now performing very well in the charter market.“

A matter of class Maintaining the classification in which the yacht was first built is another consideration that can, at times, lead to a major refit. The vast majority of superyachts are kept in class by their owners

Pendennis' rebuild project A2 was recently awarded ‘Best Rebuild’ in the 2013 World Superyacht Awards.

obtaining certificates issued by the classification society that have a five-year life span. During that period, the yacht is considered in class as long as any provisos noted on the previous certificates are complied with and an annual inspection is carried out. At the end of the five year period of class, a renewal survey must be carried out in order to restart the class certificate for the next five years. Since the renewal survey has the scope of assigning a new five year period of class, it requires a special regulated inspection in order to assess the condition of the structures and the working machinery. During the annual survey, a surveyor will verify that the fire pump delivers the proper jet of water; in the renewal survey he will require an overhauling and perhaps refitting of that pump dependant on, for example, the condition of the impeller. The same is true for engines and other machinery.

Surprising savings When, for example superyacht Paraiso was due to undergo her 20 year class inspection survey, so great was the work required by Lloyds (the classification society involved) that it was deemed more economical to strip out the engine room entirely, replacing old engines with new in a refit that would take Spanish shipyard Astilleros de Mallorca two years to finish. Not only was it cheaper to replace rather than rebuild â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the new engines were cheaper to run, burning 30% less fuel and producing the

158

At the same time as the engine overhaul, the yacht received a new electrical system, new generators and changes to the superstructure to enable the fitting of a new Jacuzzi and better use of the exterior deck area. Riccardo Peirano, project manager at Astilleros de Mallorca takes up the story. “We called it a Class Survey refit but I guess when you consider the time we took and the scope of work we undertook, the term rebuild might seem more appropriate! “Over those two years the owner chose to renew all interior furniture, lighting and sanitary piping. He instructed the yard to replace with new all the hotel equipment; he upgraded the air conditioning system; and he wanted them to install a very big Jacuzzi on the main deck where a deck locker storage area once stood. “I believe that a refit always offers a bigger challenge when compared to a new build, because you are working on a yacht that already exists. This might sound an obvious statement, but there are many times when it is easy to forget or better not to say during the process. A project manager of a new build can start with a white canvas but I could not do that. I had to accommodate the engineering for

Apart from saving precious money, the refit will have been completed in a much shorter time than if we had ripped the yacht apart. the new power plant with total respect to the original layout and I had to redistribute the new equipment with a future ease of maintenance in view. While supervising the interior redesign I had to make sure we did not lose that original feeling for a Bannenberg design, which is what makes this yacht so very special. “There were many funny stories along the way – not least the one that involved the Jacuzzi! The original was definitely much smaller than the final one and the funny thing was the almost daily growth in size of this new Jacuzzi. The most important thing is that the owner was very happy with the final result. He was especially pleased with the notable decrease in fuel consumption, vibration and other shipboard noises. He was delighted with his new supersized Jacuzzi area and loves the feeling being almost part of the sea when he uses it, now that it has been repositioned in the bow at a much lower level than before.”

What to keep, what to scrap? The refit of A2 (the Feadship formerly known as Masquerade of Sole) at the UK’s Pendennis shipyard in Falmouth was equally dramatic. The objective behind the concept was to completely transform the 1983-built yacht into one reflective of modern design and technology. Plans were substantial and more in line with a rebuild. The yacht arrived in Cornwall during the spring of 2011 with the initial task being the complete removal of the vessel’s interior and systems, leaving the bare steel hull and aluminium superstructure. For such an extreme refit the initial question raised was, how much of the yacht should be maintained within the new proposals. This became a crucial part of the design and planning stage, with huge implications on the schedule and of course the cost. A full structural survey assessed the structural integrity of the yacht, which in turn determined the extent of the work. The owner made the decision to completely strip out the yacht including crew areas, guest areas and the engine rooms returning the vessel to bare bulkheads. Structural engineers at BMT Nigel Gee - a leading independent naval architecture and marine engineering design consultancy – worked alongside the technical team at the shipyard to design a five-metre extension across three levels, increasing her LOA from 42.5m to 47m, thereby substantially enhancing

159

same speed despite their lower power output. The resulting improvement in the yacht’s cruising range offers her owner a far greater choice of destinations world wide and from all points of view the rebuild has been considered a win-win scenario.

the on-board social areas. The hull extension presented several challenges, with the new structure needing to be faired precisely into the existing structure (while having sufficient volume to support the additional structural weight); optimum transom immersion for dynamic trim and low resistance; and suitable section shapes to reduce the effects of bottom slamming.

The physics of perfection The height of the aft bathing platform was also an important design consideration to be defined prior to the refit. The bathing platform needed to be high enough above the waterline so that it did not become wet in transit, yet low enough for the owner and guests to comfortably access the water at anchor. Prior to the refit a series of wave profile trials were conducted on the yacht while she was Masquerade of Sole, whereby videos and photographs of the transom were taken to assess the dynamic waterline at a range of speeds, and to subsequently confirm trim and sinkage effects. The result of this careful design is a bathing platform that can be used comfortably while at anchor and underway. The wave profile data was also used to position the underwater exhaust outlets. The yachtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exterior social areas also benefited from the new transom with increased al fresco dining spaces and redesigned twin access stairwells (rather than the previous single ladder system) giving more convenient access to the new swim platform and boarding passerelle.

The creation of a full-width master stateroom dramatically increased the level of luxury within the owner’s accommodation and the interior now includes a much larger main lounge with the addition of a second lounge area on the top deck. The majority of the interior layout was reconfigured, manufactured and installed by the shipyard team who worked closely with both Dörr interiors in The Netherlands, and the UK’s Parkway Interiors. The furniture chosen for the master suite is a mixture of leather and bronze. Its key piece is a beautiful chest of drawers designed by Parisian sculptor Ingrid Donat, with detailed bronze handles and parchment doors.

Engineering excellence Completely gutting the engine room and machinery spaces presented the Pendennis engineering department with a unique opportunity to recommend and plan the most appropriate design and performance led systems for this type of yacht. The shipyard completely redesigned and rewired the vessel’s electricals throughout. The resulting systems are now highly efficient, with new Northern Lights generators backed up by a load bank system for effective power management. The owner’s brief was to increase both the range and cruising speed of the yacht following her rebuild, and success was achieved in both areas. Her cruising speed is now a steady 14 knots (from 12 knots) using new MTU main engines, and A2 now comfortably achieves

a maximum of 15.8 knots with dramatically improved fuel consumption that has increased her fuel range from 3,500 nautical miles (NM) at 12 knots to 4,200NM cruising at 14 knots. Pendennis worked in conjunction with both the New York-based architect Peter Marino (who undertook the interior design) and with BMT Nigel Gee, who directly advised on the practicalities of the new layout. This was to ensure that the yacht could be future-proofed to a certain extent, pre-planning easy access for ongoing systems maintenance and balancing aesthetic solutions with spatial planning for practical living. Sixteen months later, following her complete transformation and re-launch as A2, this superyacht sailed away in a condition equal to that of a brand new yacht.

Going Dutch The choice of the refit shipyard is sometimes left to the captain. This was the case with Skat, a yacht that maintains a very active annual cruising schedule throughout the Med, Northern Europe, Scandinavia, the Caribbean, Bahamas and the USA. The Captain explained why he chose Huisfit, the refit division of the Royal Huisman shipyard, saying, “Much earlier in my career I was involved with two refit projects as crew then captain on board Royal Huisman-built yachts. I enjoyed sailing and maintaining these quality yachts and was impressed by the attitude and expertise I witnessed at the yard. “Choosing the refit yard is a key component to the successful operation of a yacht. Owner confidence, cost, schedule and crew morale are just some of the significant factors at stake. Once a work list is determined, the technical solutions must be proposed, agreed and quoted by qualified yards and their subcontractors. We aim to find referenced expertise with a facility appropriate to our work list, then make every effort to ensure it can all come together in a very specific time frame with a high level of cooperation and trust. “After completing our due diligence with current references such as SY Eos, meetings

with yard management and visiting the facility in Harlingen, I had every confidence the team would do a great job with Skat. In the end, the shipyard completed our entire work list, the budget was respected, the standard of work was exceptional and our departure deadline was met to the day. The time and cost to relocate to the Netherlands was easily overcome by these results. “Did everything go according to plan? Not entirely: some logistical issues were identified early on, all sides were extremely responsive with solutions and additional support was supplied with no question.”

Sailing yacht refit Sailing yachts need their refits just as motor yachts do. At the Oyster Group’s Southampton Yacht Services (SYS) yard they completed the refit of the super sailing yacht Leopard 3 in time for her owner Mike Slade to celebrate 25 years of yacht racing. Launched in 2007 by

The complete systems upgrade has left the vessel more akin to a newly built Feadship than a 20-year old one.

McConaghy Boats in New Zealand, this 30m super maxi yacht was conceived by Farr Yacht Design with styling by Ken Freivokh. This speed machine boasts a Southern Spars carbon mast, canting keel and is said to be one of the fastest sailing yachts of the world, capable of top speeds in excess of 35 knots under sail. Following four years of racing, the owner wanted her prepared for a new lease of life. A modern and ultra-light interior by Design Unlimited was fitted to accommodate guests on board. “She was always meant to have an interior but for several reasons she was originally built without one,” said Matthew Townsend, project manager at SYS. “The owner has always wanted to cruise Leopard with his friends and family and he loves to live on board.” Chris Sherlock, Leopard’s captain said, “Besides setting numerous world records and racing at grand prix regattas, Leopard 3 is also in high demand for corporate charter and a full interior would definitely provide better facilities for guests.” The SYS shipyard is based in the UK, where Leopard 3 is registered, so was the logical yard to consider. Guest accommodations were added forward of the saloon, comprising a master, two double and two single cabins. The galley area was also refitted. The yacht will continue racing even though she is now ready to accommodate eight guests overnight. She was seen during the JP Morgan Round the Island Race where she held the title and the monohull record set in 2008 of 03:53:05. The champagne was out on board Mike Slade's

giant ICAP Leopard after they broke their own monohull record, by nine minutes and 45 seconds. Crossing the finishing line at 8.43am, they completed the race in three hours, 43 minutes and 50 seconds. Slade said “When we were rounding St Catherine's Point we were concerned the wind would start drying off Shanklin - but it stayed up all the way round the island.”

R&R The refit market is becoming increasingly competitive, with the most financially stable yards appearing most attractive to superyacht owners and potential owners. When in a position to seek a yard it is best to research them carefully before asking them to tender. Look at their reputation for getting the job done well, on time and within budget, and ask other captains and owners for their first-hand experiences. Yards need as much detail as possible upfront, including ideal time frames and work lists. This is best done as a collaborative exercise between the owner, the captain, his engineer and his crew together with an independent third party, such as a naval architect or surveyor. Do not just base the project on getting a rock bottom price at the nearest location; an initial outlay to reach a further flung yard may reap financial dividends in the long run. No one ever said the process of refitting was an easy one, but this is multi-million pound superyacht refit and rebuild after all – not your typical R&R. n See the new Yachting Pages Refit Guide, available September 2013.

Pricing of the submersibles ranges from £1.2m to £1.8m for the base models, then customise at will.

without damaging the colourful coral beneath; all are possible with hovercrafts like the HovPod. Fun, easy to drive, safe and reliable, these amphibious vehicles will hover over any flat surface from water, ice and snow to sand, mud and grass. Popular with superyacht owners seeking something a little different for their guests, the ride sensation is akin to levitation. It is smooth and comfortable at speeds of up to 65kph (40mph) and produces no distracting wake or exhaust fumes. The driver can flit from surface to surface, from land to water and back again, performing 180° turns and 360° spins in an instant. The HovPod will not damage surfaceswimming marine life such as sea turtles or manatees. They can even fly over a bird’s egg without cracking it; the weight whilst hovering is similar to that of a seagull standing on one leg.

Designed for saltwater use, they feature marine-grade stainless steel parts as standard with a durable, almost impossible to rip skirt material. The superyacht special is the HovPod SPX TCC+ 120hp Turbo model, with prices starting around the £17,000 mark. Season to taste with custom options including military cooling systems, ballast control, customised colour schemes and, if you’re hungry and handy with a rod, fish finders.

Amphibious innovations Superyachts usually need to be alongside in order for their prestige

IMAGE: ©ICON Aircraft vehicles to hit the shore, unless they are amphibious creations that can be driven directly from the vessel à la James Bond. Amphibious vehicles are not a new concept – 007 has destroyed several and the UK’s Top Gear presenters have raced theirs across the English Channel – but designing one from the ground up is unusual. The latest model from WaterCar is the Panther. Resembling a Jeep and with ample room for four adults to enjoy a fun ride on board, these are built to order starting from a base cost of around £82,000. The Panther’s Honda V6 3.7 litre engine ensures an

impressive water speed of up to 70kph (44mph) and a top land speed of around 130kph (80mph), with transitions between modes taking just 10 seconds. For super speed freaks seeking a real wow factor, upgrade to the Python. It achieves 0-60mph on land in a staggering 4.5 seconds and even on water nudges an impressive 60mph (almost 100kph).

Come fly with me Normally you need an aircraft carrier to keep a plane on a ship but Icon Aircraft plans to change all that with their new two-seater Icon A5. When USA regulations for small planes were changed in 2004 and the new Sport Pilot License was created, Icon’s Kirk Hawkins and Steen Strand decided to develop a new amphibious project.

They have now created a fun recreational aircraft that is as easy to use as a Jet Ski. Their twoseater plane is built of carbon fibre and epoxy composites and comes with an intuitive sports car styled cockpit. Light enough to crane aboard a superyacht, it has folding wings for easy stowage, can take off from land or water, and uses ordinary petrol as fuel. Icon is now manufacturing the components for its first production aircraft and already has over 900 orders – some from superyacht owners. Orders are now being accepted with a refundable £3,250 deposit.

Fun for one On first impressions this looks like a domestic fan without a stand, but take a Bladefish Seajet underwater and the real fun begins. Charter

guests don’t even need to exert themselves using fins or trying to swim against currents – they can simply hold on tightly and let the Seajet whizz them effortlessly along past tropical fish and stunning coral creations. One charge lasts up to two hours and this brilliant bit of kit has a top speed of 6.5kph (4mph). The top of the range Seajet 7000 Turbo model weighs less than 5kg, while the entry level Seajet 1000 is even lighter. Happily, both are buoyant so there is no risk of losing them underwater. Costing from £299.99 to £749.99 each, some well-stocked charter vessels have half a dozen aboard for group pleasure, too.

Superyacht sea pool A private, made-to-measure ocean pool is one superyacht accessory that little boys and girls will appreciate just as much as the adults. These

172

pools of safer seawater make it far easier to enjoy the life aquatic directly from the swim platform without encountering the creatures that can bite, sting and otherwise ruin a lazy day’s relaxation. Pools like those from expert tube manufacturers Henshaw Inflatables will offer protection from passing craft as well as from underwater nasties. The Henshaw pool also offers a strong and rigid inflatable surround, with a robust non-slip top that’s perfect for supporting several sunbathers at once. It’s designed to retain its firm shape even in strong winds or rougher conditions… though SYOG suspects that superyacht guests

and their children will already be ensconced in the comfort of the on-board cinema if conditions have become so inclement! Crew will love this product too, for it deflates and folds down into a compact package for stowing on board, leaving plenty of space for other toys in the tender garage. Inventors of the original air sealed, hook over the railing yacht slide, Poseidon Inflatables also have a number of new products coming soon. The Poseidon Sea Stairs, Sea Bridge, Self Lifter Slide and Dock Slide are apparently just the tip of the trident so SYOG will be keeping an eye on them in the months ahead.

need to help start your lifelong quest for the title. They supply superyachts with the finest collection of indoor toys from new and vintage pinball machines to brand new or classically cool jukeboxes, all lovingly restored to their former glory by their workshop’s team of dedicated craftspeople. Both adults and children will enjoy their luxury retro games coffee table. Custommade to match the yacht and inspired by 1980s’ gaming tables, it has the look and feel of a classic arcade table with LCD monitor, toughened glass top, buttons and joystick controller and arrives stocked with 60 well-loved vintage games. An air hockey table that is specially designed for smaller children is bound to be a hit with younger guests, or adorn your sundeck with table football to get everyone outside.

More than a toy Sailing on a world cruise with young children is a life-changing experience, but their education with private tuition still needs to continue. Advanced New Technologies (ANT) has partnered with U-Touch and other suppliers to create a specialised electronic classroom, enhanced with HD data projectors, LCD panels, computers and learning systems with amazing interactivity for children. It includes high technology kit that allows children to draw all over the bulkheads with a multicolour ‘brush’ and ‘eraser’, and features a ‘magic wand’ to bring their drawings to life. With no messy clean-up operation required, this is fantastic interactive education meets chief stew’s delight.

Killer whales For a thrilling ride away from the theme park itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to beat a Seabreacher, the high-performance submersible watercraft from Innespace Productions. Designed to flip and twist, it can also sustain high-speed dives just beneath the surface before breaching skywards, launching the entire vessel and two passengers clear out of the water. Their first version resembled a dolphin and a new super high performance model has now joined the range with more aggressive looking shark styling. Innespace has also created a killer whale form, complete with pectoral fins, a large whale tail, a fully functioning blowhole and a panoramic bubble canopy. With its 260hp super-charged engine, the craft can speed along at over 88kph (55mph) on the surface and 40kph (25mph) below. Its thrust system mimics the tail articulation of a real aquatic animal which allows for radical freestyle manoeuvres. Live video from a snorkel-mounted camera transmits to the LCD screens for the pilot and passenger, with appropriately wild and watery music emanating from the in-board iPod dock.

Personal flying craft The creative genius behind the Seabreacher submersible has masterminded a second new experience in aquatic flight: enter the Jetovator. This new water sports accessory combines the acrobatic capabilities of an aircraft with the

THE ULTIMATE DIVING MACHINE

Fly through the water with the grace and agility of a dolphin in your very own Seabreacher Submersible watercraft. Each hand built vessel can be tailored to the individual yacht owners specifications., including upholstery, dashboard layouts and paint scheme. The Seabreacher can be mounted on the deck of most yachts, and can be easily launched and retrieved using a standard watercraft lifting davit. Reach surface speeds of up to 55mph, dive 5ft below the surface at 20mph and then launch 90 degrees in the air!

simplicity of riding a bike, quickly elevating a standard personal watercraft into a totally new three-dimensional riding experience. Simply attach the 12m (40ft) connecting hose and thrust adapter to the high-output Sea-Doo, Kawasaki or Yamaha of your choice to fly 9m (30ft) in the air and dive down 3m (10ft) below the water. Attain flight speeds of 40kph (25mph) and perform aerial stunts like back flips. The suspension landing gear option even allows experienced Jetovator pilots to take off from and land on docks or decks. This accessory is so easy to use, that most guests can be flying comfortably within minutes. Calm and mild or wet and wild – create your own unforgettable ride to suit your skill and adrenalin levels.

Amphibian jet ski New Zealander Alan Gibbs once owned Senses, a spectacular superyacht which carried aboard the prototype Gibbs Aquada motor car. This became one of the era’s musthave superyacht toys. The yacht toy scene is moving on apace and the company is keeping up admirably with the introduction of the revolutionary Quad Ski. This high-speed amphibian is the product of millions of research pounds and years of development work in the USA, New Zealand and the UK and is an entirely new form of transportation. The Quad Ski can reach speeds of 72kph (45mph) on both land and water and transitions between modes in under five seconds. Equipped with a 175hp BMW engine and

transmission, its wheels retract when entering the water and deploy when approaching land at the touch of a button. Weighing in at just 590kg, it is equipped with a 68 litre fuel tank and comes in a variety of colours. Currently available as a one-seater with a length of 3.2m (10.5ft), watch this space for details of a larger, two-person option.

Making tracks… A French company is making tracks into the superyacht toy market – quite literally. Iguana Yachts equip high-performance boats with tracks, giving them the ability to emerge from the water onto dry land independently. Two rubber tracks and motorised hydraulic arms can be fitted to almost any type of tender. Controlled using a smart command, they can then be deployed in seconds or quickly folded away into the sides of the boat without compromising the tender’s sleek lines. They can climb an 11° variable slope, even on unstable ground, and can reach 7kph (4mph). With a ground pressure barely greater than a pedestrian, the vessel’s weight is distributed evenly on its tracks. No matter what the age of the kids on board (or the mental age of the adults…) there is a toy to suit everyone’s taste and level of engagement in the superyacht world. SYOG challenges you and shouts from the decks, let the games begin! n
