The annual Newport Charter Show, set for this summer in New England, has been an industry-only event for the past 29 years. That’s changing, with new ownership embracing a new philosophy. And, as part of that philosophy, the Newport Charter Show will encourage yacht owners and charter guests alike to support the well-known nonprofit organization YachtAid Global.
The annual St. Barths Bucket is always a big deal in the megayacht sailing realm. Open only to yachts measuring 100 feet and larger, it attracts competitors at heart but emphasizes fun and safety above all. This year’s race, from March 22 to 25, is particularly interesting, presenting some impressive statistics as well as challenges.
One of the world’s largest sailing yachts just made history as being the largest megayacht ever to undergo a refit in New Zealand. Athena, the Royal Huisman launch coming in at 295 feet LOA (90 meters), wrapped up a nine-month stay at Orams Marine Services.
A few years ago, Hodgdon Yachts branched out beyond building custom power- and sailing yachts, with the introduction of its Custom Tenders Line. The Maine-based shipyard has four new tender orders on its books, with design input coming from two well-known yacht designers.
The replica of the famed 1934 America’s Cup winner Rainbow gently touched salt water for the first time in mid-February, christened by the owner’s daughter.
The United States has long been a strong market for targeting yacht buyers and owners. One of the highest concentration of both can be found in the cities stretching from Baltimore to Boston. All of this explains why MarineMax now has an exclusive representation deal in the Northeastern United States for Benetti and Azimut Grande.
Last month saw the launch of Tsumat at Trinity Yachts. Measuring 164 feet (49.9 meters), Tsumat is for experienced megayacht owners.
What started as a tender design project turned into a two-boat deal. Tasmania-based Imaginocean Yacht Design is working with fellow Aussie company C.Way to build a 26-foot tender and a 154-foot motoryacht.
Who says you can’t go home again? With this 97-foot design created in conjunction with Vripack, Burger Boat Company is returning to a successful size range.
Heesen Yachts’ new 50-Meter Semi-Displacement series seems to be catching on. The Dutch yard just sold a yacht in that series that was started on spec.
The Ferretti Group, the parent company of CRN, Ferretti Yachts, Ferretti Custom Line, and five other Italian yacht and megayacht brands, formally announced it is being acquired by China-based Shandong Heavy Industry Group.
