THE BRIDGE BETWEEN PALMA & ANTIGUA

After the great success in 2017 we will be producing the new “The Y” Yachting Handbook 2018 Edition. We will be introducing a Chapter solely on Antigua, having just come back from what was an amazing boat show we feel that it is essential for this chapter to be included. We will expand our itineraries in this region as well as information and services that you would need whilst in the Caribbean. Our content will include more itineraries, places to visit, History, Culture, shopping, restaurants, as well as topics of interest. We would also like to inform our clients and partners that  as from December 2017 we will be collaborating with Anchor Concierge and Superyacht Support Antigua.

Alarming amount of crew members are not signing on and off yachts correctly in Palma

We have noticed over the past month when the season is coming to a close or yachts are preparing to leave for the Caribbean many non EU crew members are not realising that they have not correctly signed on or off their Yacht. What does this mean? When you fly into a EU country on arrival you must go with a cosignatory to Immigration and have your passport stamped so you can embark on the yacht,  this stops your 90 days being consumed. If you do not do this and you consume your days, you could be classified as an illegal and when you go to the airport to fly home you can have up to a 5 year ban for entering any EU country. If you want us to come on board and make sure that you have everything order contact us at Palma@estelashipping.net or +34 971 722 532 and of course no charge for the visit. More info at pag. 28 of “The Y” The Yachting Handbook

Leaving Spanish Waters: What do you need?

Do you have cash on board, including that of crew and guest that exceeds 10.000€?  As of this year all yachts that are coming from outside  Spanish waters, on entry must declare all cash on board including that of crew and guests if it exceeds 10.000 euros. It is a simple process you would just need to send the exact amount that is on board and we can process the paperwork before you arrive. This also comes into effect if you are planning on leaving Spanish waters and have more than 10.000€ on board you will have to declare this as well.   Next port a non-EU?   Is necessary to obtain a Departure Clearence from the authorities. Next port EU? Departure Notice will have to be presented to the authorities. For advice on any of the above matters, please contact us on +34 971 722 532 or via email: estela@superyachts.agency

The formation of the SuperYacht Aid Coalition

Each one of us realizes the tremendous destruction and the massive and long recovery road ahead.  Most of us have strong connections to the people of the Caribbean and feel a duty to act and contribute.   The formation of the SuperYacht Aid Coalition made up of the industry association leaders underscores the urgent need for us ALL to get involved, in a unified way and to make sure the collective industry response makes a statement.  A statement that we can do great things together, that we deeply care and are grateful to the people of the affected Caribbean Islands.  And the industries collective financial contribution makes a statement that reflects the value and appreciation we have for our Caribbean Island hosts.   YachtAid Global has been tapped to facilitate the yachting industries recovery efforts.  It is clear that one group needs to  advise all that want to get involved so we are not duplicating efforts and we maximize everyones contribution.  We spend several hours a day talking to people giving real time situation reports from the islands and in all of these cases we are asking “how can we compliment your program or advise on how best to get contribute”.   We should be […]

HUGE IMPACT ON SUPERYACHT BEHAVIOR!

There has been a huge impact on Superyacht behavior thanks to the Yachting Handbook, First published for the 2017, this Handbook has changed the behavior and routes of yachts that are sailing the Balearics. The handbook gives captains more information about rules and legislation than ever before. The posidonia page link is informing  captains about anchorage possibilities and warning  them on the risks if they damage the sea grass.. Owners and guests are becoming more curios of trying experiences and itineraries suggested in the handbook. With the support of Estela  Superyacht Agency for timing, booking and assistance, it aims to make  their experience unique and hassle free. Being the first season since its launch, we are seeing results that are exceeding our expectation! If you don’t have your copy on board, contact us or pop by our office!   A Good read!

IS YOUR YACHT REALLY SAFE? 7 CRITICAL QUESTIONS

 THE Y / YACHTING HANDBOOK – YACHT CHAPTER PAG. 174   If we have a look to the actual situation in our industry and all the injuries and accidents, unfortunately on many occasions fatal, we can see where the Achilles heel is. If you are in the sea, you must be aware that possible emergencies may arise. There are a few questions that you must know the right answer to in order to set a basic level of safety on board your yacht: Every emergency is a situation in which you have no control over, and eventually it can stem from a lack of preparation. In fact fear of failure, anxiety and confusion can generate chaos and paralyze the victim’s rescue procedures. SAFETY ON BOARD Q&A  ( THE Y / YACHTING HANDBOOK – YACHT CHAPTER PAG. 174)   http://www.youblisher.com/p/1839488-The-Y-Yachting-Handbook-Mallorca-Edition-01-2017/

What are Captains obliged to do on Arrival and Departure into Mallorca Marinas?

Interview with Inspector Luis Porto and Subinspector Juan A.Lemos of the foreign control. Pag 28 – The Y / Yachting Handbook – Captains Chapter   All recreational embarkations that come to Palma, the Captain being the person responsible for the embarkation has certain obligations that he must comply with at the maritime port authorities; these are not only for Mallorca but Spain the EU and all Schengen areas. The requirements that they need are the following. Crew list with nationality and passport details Guest list with nationality and passports, name surname all details, not only crew members but guests on board. I understand that some people want to stay anonymous, but we must be able to identify who is on board and who is in the country. We understand that captains want to be discreet about who they have on board but this is inevitable, not only here but all over the world.   Read More (Pag 28)
