In the exciting world of sailboats, some stories transcend sailing and become
a
uential adventures full of
adventures full of emotion and overcoming. Such is the case of Colin and Michael, two Australian Navy retirees, and their sailboat Nessaru. This is an epic story that illustrates the true spirit of sailing and highlights the importance of comprehensive ship maintenance.

An Extraordinary Maritime Adventure

Colin and Michael, eager for one last great maritime adventure, set out to take their beloved sailboat Nessaru from Barcelona to Australia through the iconic Panama Canal.

To make this monumental voyage, they needed a sailing vessel in optimal and reliable condition. This is where our history and our vital contribution as experts in comprehensive boat maintenance and boat sales begins.

Expert Advice and Purchase of the Sailboat

From the moment Colin and Michael walked into our office in Port Ginesta, we knew we were in for an exceptional adventure. Our team of specialists helped them select the Jeanneau Sun Charm 39, a boat with its own history of sailing and adventure.

After a quick and efficient transaction, Colin and Michael became the proud owners of Nessaru, ready to embark on their transoceanic voyage.

Comprehensive Maintenance: Key to a Safe Journey

Before sailing, there was a lot of work to be done. We take care of all the necessary improvements to the boat to ensure its performance and safety at sea.

Here we break down in detail every aspect of the comprehensive ship maintenance we implemented to ensure that Nessaru was in the best possible condition:

1. Checking of the Rigging and the Anti-Rotation Hood

The rigging, consisting of the ropes and cables that support the mast, is crucial to the stability and maneuverability of the sailboat. We evaluated each component to ensure that there was no wear or damage that could compromise safety.

The sprayhood, essential to protect the cockpit from splashes and adverse conditions, did not exist on this boat, so we have taken care of its manufacture and complete installation .

2. Installation of a New Trans-oceanic Autopilot

Navigating long distances without a reliable autopilot can be exhausting. We install a state-of-the-art state-of-the-art autopilot, designed specifically for transoceanic voyages.

Allowing Colin and Michael to benefit from a more relaxed and safer sailing experience, with the peace of mind of knowing that the system can handle a variety of sea conditions.

3. Liferaft Revision and Mainsail Reinforcement

Safety is our top priority. The life raft underwent a complete overhaul to ensure it was ready for any emergency.

Additionally, we reinforced the mainsail to withstand the high winds and extreme conditions that could be encountered at sea. This reinforcement is essential
to maintain the structural integrity of the sailboat during the voyage.

4. Engine and Fuel Tank Maintenance

The engine is the heart of any sailboat in terms of auxiliary propulsion and safety. We performed a thorough overhaul of the engine, making sure that all components were in perfect condition.

We also clean and check the diesel tank to avoid fuel problems, guaranteeing a clean and uninterrupted supply.

5. Change of All Bottom Taps

Bottom taps are critical points in a ship’s structure, allowing water to flow in and out for various systems. We replaced all the Nessaru’s bottom taps to ensure their optimal

and prevent any possible infiltration that could jeopardize the safety of the boat.

6. Total painting of the hull

The hull had some osmosis bubbles that needed to be treated, so we had to sand and paint the entire hull.

The work performed was as follows:

  • Remove the current paint up to the gelcoat, repairing as many bubbles as possible.
  • Apply a coat of epoxy resin.
  • Apply epoxy putty 830 on all treated areas.
  • Sand the putty and repair the flaws with more epoxy putty.
  • Apply three coats of epoxy primer.
  • Treat the keel by removing all existing material and apply seven coats of epoxy primer.
  • Apply two coats of international antifouling.
  • Hull polishing.
  • Remove vinyl from waterlines and hull trim.
  • Sand and paint the profile, applying three coats of finishing paint.

Colin and Michael left us a very detailed and appreciative review on Google. Here we translate it to share your experience with us:

“My colleague and I are retired Australian naval officers, and in 2023 we made a plan to buy a yacht in Europe and sail it back to Australia.

In August 2023, we traveled to Barcelona, where we purchased a 1990 Jeanneau Sun Charm 39, through
Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona
. Chiara Campagnaro, the Director of NYBB, and Òscar Rius were extremely helpful with the arrangements to view the boat, with the negotiations with the seller, and subsequently with the inspection and sales contract.

When we saw the yacht, it was clean and obviously well maintained, with a great layout and a bright and airy interior. However, given her age, we realized that she would need work to bring her up to the standard required for a crossing across the Atlantic and Pacific.

After returning to Australia, we engaged Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona as project managers to oversee a number of major works, including the replacement of the rigging and a complete hull refit.

They also received several packages, including nautical charts and a new Genoa, which were sent by courier to Spain. Throughout this process, Chiara and Òscar kept us fully informed with progress reports supported by many photos.

We return to Spain in March 2023 with the intention of embarking on our voyage in early April, weather permitting. Without the support of Chiara and Òscar, it is hard to imagine how all this would have been possible. We are indebted to them for making this happen.”

Tips for Integral Boat Maintenance

For those who are considering embarking on a similar voyage, or simply wish to keep their boat in top condition, here are some useful tips for comprehensive boat maintenance:

Performing regular inspections of all ship systems is crucial. This includes the hull, rigging, engine, electrical and plumbing systems, among others. Periodic checks help to identify and fix problems before they become serious failures.

Keeping the boat clean is not only a matter of aesthetics, but also of protection. Salt and other elements can cause corrosion and other damage. It is important to clean the boat regularly and apply protective products to preserve the materials.

Maintain a
detailed record
of all maintenance activities is essential. This includes repairs, replacements and improvements made. A detailed log makes it easier to keep track of maintenance needs and can be useful for future owners.

Using high quality products and components for maintenance and repairs ensures greater durability and performance. This is especially important for critical ship systems such as the engine and rigging.

Having the advice of experts in integral boat maintenance is a valuable investment. Professionals can provide expert insight and perform work that requires specialized skills, ensuring that the vessel is always in the best possible condition.

The Nessaru Crossing

Nessaru’s departure from Port Ginesta was a moment of great excitement and anticipation. Equipped with a sailboat in top condition thanks to our comprehensive maintenance work, Colin and Michael embarked on their voyage with confidence and security.

Throughout the journey, they faced diverse weather conditions and challenges, but their preparation and
the impeccable condition of Nessaru
enabled them to sail successfully.

The success of their voyage is a testament to the positive impact that comprehensive ship maintenance can have. It’s not just about preventing problems, it’s about ensuring that every trip is as safe and enjoyable as possible. Colin and Michael, with their sailboat Nessaru, are an inspiring example of how proper preparation and maintenance can transform an adventure into an unforgettable experience.

The America’s Cup, a sailing event that blends history, fame, fortune, international rivalry, and technology, stands as the world’s premier regatta, offering one of the most significant sports spectacles of our time. In this blog, we will delve into the captivating details of the 2024 America’s Cup, set to unfold in the beautiful city of Barcelona.

History of the America's Cup: An Epic Start in 1851

The legend of the America’s Cup dates back to 1851 when the American schooner defeated fourteen vessels from the Royal Yacht Squadron of London in a regatta around the Isle of Wight called the Queen’s Cup. The silver jug, the 100-guinea trophy, traveled across the Atlantic, marking the inception of this prestigious event’s history.

The Dominance of the New York Yacht Club: Over 100 Years of Victory

Following the victory of the schooner America, the trophy was donated to the New York Yacht Club, which accepted challenges from clubs worldwide for over a century. The New York Yacht Club’s hegemony was only broken in 1983 when the Australia II put an end to their reign, marking a milestone in the America’s Cup history.

Format of the America's Cup Event: A Unique Competition

The magic of the America’s Cup lies in its unique format. It’s a regatta of state-of-the-art sailboats but retains the essence of high-class competitions from the 19th century. The competition, a 1-on-1 showdown where the defending club faces the challenger, is governed by the “Deed of Gift,” a document acting as the regatta’s “constitution.”

The "Protocol": Defining the Rules of the Game for 2024

The “Protocol” is the document that sets the rules for the 2024 America’s Cup in Barcelona. Signed by the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron of New Zealand and the English Royal Yacht Squadron, this document defines key aspects such as dates, participation fees, and conditions for challenging clubs.

Ships and Technology: The Stunning AC75

For the 2024 America’s Cup in Barcelona, teams will compete with the AC75 model, a high-performance monohull with foils. These underwater wings allow sailboats to “fly” over the water, reaching astonishing speeds. With technical features like a mast height of 26.5 meters and maximum speeds of over 50 knots, the AC75 is the jewel of the competition.

However, before diving into this exciting world, it is important to understand the factors driving the growth of the sector and to assess the risks and challenges associated with investing in megayachts.

In the following sections, we will explore these key aspects in detail and analyze current opportunities and trends in the megayacht business.

Global Market Overview

The global megayacht market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with a steady increase in demand for these luxurious vessels. According to the annual report of the
International Yacht Builders Association (IYBA)
The value of the megayacht market has experienced steady growth in recent years.

This growth is attributed to several factors, including rising wealth in emerging economies, such as China, and the desire of the super-rich to invest in tangible assets and unique experiences.

The megayacht market is divided into different segments according to the size of the vessels. Mega yachts are classified into three main categories:

  1. small (24-40 meters in length)
  2. medium (40-60 meters in length)
  3. large (over 60 meters in length).

As the size of megayachts increases, so does their price, which means that investment opportunities vary according to each investor’s budget and objectives. However, regardless of size, megayachts offer an unparalleled level of luxury and exclusivity, making them an attractive investment for those seeking a unique experience at sea.

Factors Contributing to Sector Growth

The growth of the sector is due to a combination of factors that have converged to create an environment conducive to its development. One of the key factors is the increase in wealth around the world, especially in emerging economies such as China and India. As more people become affluent, so does the demand for luxurious and exclusive experiences, which has driven the demand for megayachts.

In addition, growing privacy and security concerns have also driven the growth of the mega-yacht sector. Superrich people are increasingly looking to escape the public eye and enjoy quiet moments at sea. Megayachts offer a level of privacy and exclusivity that is difficult to achieve in other settings, making them a perfect retreat for those looking to escape the stresses of everyday life.

Another important factor that has contributed to the growth of the sector is the advance of technology. The megayachts are equipped with the latest technological innovations, from state-of-the-art entertainment systems to cutting-edge safety devices. These technological improvements not only offer comfort and safety on board, but also increase the attractiveness of megayacht investment, as buyers seek vessels equipped with the latest features and technologies.

The Impact of the Megayacht Industry on Local Economies

The megayacht business not only benefits investors and boat owners, but also has a significant impact on local economies. When mega-yachts visit a destination, they generate a number of economic benefits, from job creation to increased tourism activity and boosting local industry.

When a mega-yacht docks in a port, it creates an instant demand for services, such as refueling, provisions, maintenance and repairs. This generates employment opportunities for local workers and stimulates the region’s economy. In addition, owners and guests spend money at restaurants, hotels, stores and local attractions, further boosting the local economy.

In addition to the direct direct economic benefitsmegayachts can also attract media attention and increase the visibility of a destination. This may generate an increase in tourism and attract investors interested in developing tourism projects in the region. In short, the megayacht business has a positive impact on local economies, generating employment, increasing tourism activity and stimulating economic development.

Business Investment Opportunities

The megayacht business offers a wide range of investment opportunities for those looking to enter this lucrative sector. From the buying and selling boats to participation in charter programs, there are several ways to invest in megayachts.

Below, we will explore some of the most common opportunities in the megayacht business.

Purchase and Sale of Megayachts

One of the most traditional ways to invest in megayachts is through the purchase and sale of boats. Investors can buy a megayacht and then sell it on the secondary market, benefiting from possible appreciation in the value of the vessel.

However, it is important to keep in mind that the megayacht market can be volatile and is subject to fluctuations in demand and prices. In addition, the maintenance and operating costs of a mega-yacht can be significant, which must be taken into account when evaluating the profitability of this investment.

Chartering Programs

Another popular way to invest is through charter programs. These programs allow investors to buy a part of a mega-yacht and then lease it to third parties. The income generated by the rent is shared among the investors, which can generate a significant economic return.

However, as with buying and selling boats, investors must take into account maintenance and operating costs, as well as the demand for megayacht charters in the region in which the boat is located.

Investments in the Ancillary Industry

In addition to investing directly in megayachts, investors can also look for opportunities in the ancillary industry. This includes investments in shipyards, interior design companies, equipment and service providers, and other related sectors. These investments may offer additional diversification and may be less volatile than direct investment in vessels.

In a nutshell, the megayacht business offers a variety of investment opportunities, from the purchase and sale of vessels to participation in chartering programs and investment in the ancillary industry. However, it is important to keep in mind the risks and challenges associated with investing in mega-yachts, such as market volatility and maintenance and operating costs.

Risks and Challenges of Investing in the Megayacht Industry

While the megayacht business offers lucrative opportunities, it is also associated with a number of risks and challenges that investors should be aware of. Some of the main risks include market volatility, maintenance and operating costs, and dependence on external factors, such as economic and political conditions.

The market is known to be volatile, which means that vessel prices can fluctuate significantly depending on demand and other factors. This can affect the value of a megayacht investment and make it difficult to predict future returns. In addition, the maintenance and operating costs of a mega-yacht can be significant, which must be taken into account when evaluating the profitability of an investment.

Another important challenge is the dependence on external factors, such as economic and political conditions. Changes in the global economy or government policies may have a significant impact on the business. For example, an economic downturn may reduce demand for mega-yachts, which would affect boat prices and charter revenues. In addition, changes in maritime regulations or tax policy may affect the profitability of a megayacht investment.

Megayacht Ownership Options for Investors

The megayacht business offers a variety of ownership options for investors. One of the most common approaches is individual ownership, where a person or a company acquires a megayacht for personal use. This option allows the owner to enjoy the exclusivity and privacy that a megayacht offers, as well as the freedom to customize it according to their tastes and preferences. However, owning an individual megayacht also entails significant costs, such as maintenance, crew and operating expenses.

Another popular option is shared ownership, where several investors join together to acquire a megayacht and share the costs and time of use. This option may be attractive for those who wish to enjoy the megayacht experience without taking on the full financial burden. In addition, shared ownership can also provide the opportunity to meet others with similar interests and establish connections in the megayachting community.

In addition to individual and shared ownership, there are also megayacht charter options, where investors can purchase a megayacht and charter it to others to generate income. This option may be especially attractive for those who wish to invest in the megayacht business without committing to full ownership. However, it is important to keep in mind that megayacht chartering also comes with challenges, such as booking management, maintenance and legal liability.

Exploring the benefits of second-hand boats

WHY SECOND-HAND BOATS ARE THE BEST OPTION

Do you dream of sailing the high seas, but are worried about the cost of a new boat? Well, fear not. The second hand boats are here to save the day and make your nautical dreams come true. Although buying a new boat may seem like the most obvious choice, there are numerous advantages to opting for a second-hand boat. Not only can you save a significant amount of money, but you also have the opportunity to find a boat with all the features and amenities you want.

The second-hand boats offer a wide range of options, allowing you to choose from different sizes, styles and manufacturers. In addition, second-hand boats usually come with a history of maintenanceThis gives you peace of mind knowing that the boat has been well cared for. So, if you’re ready to set sail without going broke, let’s dive into the world of pre-owned boats and explore why they’re the best choice for any aspiring captain.

Advantages of buying a used boat

Cost savings on the purchase of a second-hand boat

When it comes to buying a boat, cost can be a barrier for many boating enthusiasts. However, opting for a second-hand boat can result in significant savings. New boats tend to command a higher price due to their impeccable condition and the state-of-the-art features they offer.

On the other hand, second-hand boats are usually more affordably priced, allowing you to get a quality boat without having to shell out a large sum of money. This is especially beneficial for those who are just starting out in the world of sailing and wish to try it out before making a more significant investment.

In addition to the lower initial price, used boats can also save you money in other ways. For example, insurance for a second-hand boat is likely to be cheaper than for a new one. In addition, the taxes and fees associated with buying a used boat are also usually lower. In short, buying a used boat allows you to save money on both the initial purchase and the ongoing costs associated with owning a boat.

Wide selection and availability of second-hand boats

One of the biggest advantages of advantages of buying a second-hand boat is the is the
wide selection and availability of boats on the market.
. While new boats are limited to current models and styles, pre-owned boats offer a much greater variety in terms of size, style and manufacturer. You can find boats of all periods and designs, allowing you to choose the one that best suits your needs and preferences.

In addition, the availability of second-hand boats is much higher than that of new boats. While new boats often have waiting lists and may require an extended waiting time before they can be obtained, pre-owned boats are readily available. This is especially beneficial if you are eager to start your adventure on the water and don’t want to wait months to get a new boat. With used boats, you can find one that meets your requirements and be sailing in no time.

Avoiding depreciation with a second-hand boat

Depreciation is an important factor to consider when buying a boat. New boats tend to lose value rapidly in the first few years after purchase. This means that if you decide to sell the boat after a short period of time, you are likely to lose a significant portion of its original value. On the other hand, second-hand boats have already gone through the initial stage of depreciation and their value tends to remain more stable over time.

By opting for a second-hand boat, you can avoid the initial drop in value and potentially recoup more of your investment if you decide to sell later. This makes buying a second-hand boat a more cost-effective option in the long run. Moreover, if you take good care of your second-hand boat, you may even be able to sell it for a similar price to what you initially paid, which would allow you to recover your entire investment.

Tips for buying a used boat

Inspection and maintenance considerations for used vessels

To buying a second-hand boatIf you are buying a boat in good condition, it is important to carry out a thorough inspection to ensure that you are purchasing a boat in good condition. This involves checking the hull, engine, electrical systems and any other vital parts of the boat. If you do not feel comfortable performing the inspection yourself, it is advisable to hire a professional to do it for you. A boat expert will be able to identify any potential problems and give you an accurate assessment of the boat’s condition.

In addition to the initial inspection, it is also important to consider ongoing maintenance of the vessel. Be sure to check the boat’s maintenance history to get an idea of how it has been cared for in the past. If the boat has been well maintained and has received regular maintenance, it is likely to be in top condition. However, if there is little or no maintenance history, you may want to exercise caution and perform a more detailed inspection prior to purchase.

Financing options for used boats

While buying a used boat may be a cheaper option than buying new, you may still need financing to make the purchase.
