MARINAWORLD@20 Multi

MARINAWORLD@20 Multi award-winning Port Denarau Marina has put Fiji firmly on the superyacht circuit. It is now the largest superyacht marina in the South Pacific. the largest and most technologically advanced megayacht marinas in the Caribbean, offering 71 slips for yachts of 50-240ft (15-73m). Part of a luxury marina resort community, the marina offers slips via membership of the Albany Yacht Club and was designed by Turrell, Hall & Associates. “Albany Marina has been constructed to serve the needs of the world’s changing fleet of large yachts, providing wider vessel beams, longer slips and an amenity package to suit every vessel.” Todd Turrell, principal Turrell, Hall & Associates. Rybovich in West Palm Beach was the world’s first integrated superyacht centre and now has 57 slips for the largest of yachts. Six berths of 50-90m (164-295ft) • were created by Waterfront Auckland in late 2011 in the Wynyard Quarter. Total Marine Services supplied the floating concrete pontoons. The move was an initial project in the extensive plan to revitalise the Auckland waterfront. Update to 2020: Now developed as Silo Marina and New Zealand’s premier superyacht facility. The marina can accommodate vessels up to 116m/381ft and offers full security, servicing and refuelling. Originally built for the • 1992 Olympic Games, from 2010 onwards Marina Port Vell in the heart of Barcelona, Spain was transformed from a 410-berth facility for boats of 10-30m (33-98ft) into a 151- berth desirable superyacht destination. Berths were built for vessels of 10-190m (33-620ft) with the highest demand expected in the 60- 90m (197-295ft) range. Construction started in late 2014 • on Golfito Marina Village & Resort, a yachting, sportfishing and eco-tourism destination in Costa Rica. With the benefit of a safe, deep water harbour, the marina will ultimately offer private, secure slips for up to 132 yachts with 350ft (100m) berths in the mix. Wide-ranging facilities complement an extraordinary location. “Golfito and the surrounding areas are environmentally sacred places, which we will embrace through our design. This truly will be a luxury vacation destination unlike any other.” Noam Schwartz, principal of development team Hacienda El Dorado. In 2008 Ingemar won the prestigious • turnkey contract for the new Marina di Loano near Genoa on the Italian Riviera. The marina, which called for over 1,000 berths at fixed quays and floating pontoons, opened in 2011. By 2014, some reconfiguration was completed in order to create seven superyacht berths of 55-77m (180-253ft). The new system was installed by CM Ferrer, Bellingham Marine’s licensee in Europe. The decision to add a 46- • berth floating superyacht jetty at Port Denarau Marina in 2010 proved a successful bid for the Fiji marina to attract ever larger visiting boats. Unfortunately, In 2017, Sovren Ibiza secured a pole position for year-round superyacht mooring in the Balearics. 26 www.marinaworld.com - July/August 2020
