📢 Join us on 16 M

⚓Day 2 in Palma as part of the Mediterranean Superyacht Forum.
Presentation of group work carried out during the previous day's mini-sessions, with a particular focus on destination, commercial activities and business strategies.

On the topic of "making the destination a yachting hub", the rapporteur highlighted the role of clusters as coordinators in developing a territorial ecosystem to support yachting.
She also discussed the value of inter-cluster relationships at the Mediterranean level, in the spirit of interconnected ecosystems.
The partnership between Balearic Marine Cluster, NAVIGO and Riviera Yachting Network is part of this approach.

For Martin Redmayne, the success of a destination rests on three criteria: crew well-being, connectivity, and owner satisfaction. It's simple !!

Camille Lopez, a member of the cluster, presented the summary of the workshop "Designing for 2036: the next generation of yachting."
It is both important and interesting to note how right the choices made by Riviera Yachting Network appear to be.

La Région Sud Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur avait convié Riviera Yachting Network au Yacht Club De Monaco, hôte d'une table ronde sur "les initiatives environnementales pour la plaisance".

Le cluster a pu détailler le pourquoi et le comment de la stratégie qu'il souhaite initier pour mettre en place une destination de refit de verdissement des yachts.

Sur la base d'un cas pratique et de mesures de consommation énergétique relevées sur 27 consommateurs d'un motor yacht de 44m -en s'appuyant sur l'expertise de Blue Wave Innovation adhérent du cluster-, des solutions reposant sur des usages, quelques aménagements ou travaux, permettent d'optimiser performances et consommation du navire.

Climatisation, eau chaude, générateurs ou autres éléments utiles à l'hôtellerie du bateau ont été passés au crible.

Des améliorations sensibles et immédiates sont possibles et l'utilisation de l'IA permet de proposer et laisser le capitaine choisir ses options d'amélioration optimisées.

SEA Index Superyacht Eco Association a présenté son outil.

L'Union des Ports de Plaisance Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur et Monaco (UPACA) a présenté la norme ISO 18725 qu'elle a élaborée et fait valider.

La Fédération des Industries Nautiques a présenté leurs outils de transition environnementale.

Tout le monde a pu constater que sur ce thème de l'environnement, le yachting avance et le travail du cluster permet de dessiner un avenir plein de promesses !!

La Région Sud Prove

La 4eme Session des Hautes Etudes Maritimes de la FMES organisait, le 2 avril au Yacht Club De Monaco, un séminaire intitulé "Quelle stratégie d'avenir pour la grande plaisance en Méditerranée".

Ce "think tank" regroupant des auditeurs issus du monde maritime dans sa diversité s'intéressait à ce marché de niche si propre à Monaco et à la Région Sud Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.

Aux côtés du commandant principal de la Police Maritime de Monaco, du Secrétaire Général du Yacht Club de Monaco, du Registre International Français (RIF) et du GEPY NEWS, Riviera Yachting Network parlait notamment de stratégie d'avenir et pour le cluster des enjeux économiques (une filière en développement constant), des défis environnementaux (posidonie, décarbonation, eau) et d'une stratégie globale (rester compétitif, transversalité).

Merci pour la richesse et la qualité des échanges à 360.

Merci à Thierry Duchesne, Bernard d'Alessandri, Matthias du Verle, Emeric Faure et Jacques Conzales.

L'Assemblée générale du Parlement de la Mer s'est tenue hier en Région Sud Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.

Le président de l'OIR Economie bleue, Commission de l'économie maritime du Parlement, a pu souligner l'aide la Région au segment du yachting professionnel et son poids économique.

Fabien ARNOUX est intervenu au nom du cluster sur le sujet du stress hydrique et de la préservation nécessaire de la ressource en eau potable dont l'ensemble des acteurs sont pleinement conscients, pour préciser la manière dont les chantiers de refit traitent désormais l'ensemble des eaux de ruissellement des plateformes pour les réutiliser à l'entretien des yachts.

Il a par ailleurs précisé l'effort des villes, à l'instar d'Antibes par exemple, qui traitent leurs eaux usées afin qu'elles puissent être réutilisées sur le port.
