Southern Spars is very proud to once again be involved with many of the World Superyacht Awardees, supplying spars for luxury yacht Rainbow – Sailing Superyacht of the Year in 39m+ range, charter yacht Endeavour – Refitted Sailing yacht of the year, superyacht Hamilton – Judges special award for performance and Quintessential yacht – Judges special award for Catamarans.

Rainbow – Sailing Superyacht of the Year in 39m+ range

“Rainbow’s Southern Spars rig and rigging package goes hand in hand with her sleek lines. She utilises grand prix technology on her rig and rigging that some of the worlds most advanced maxis sport, including the current Volvo 70’s” says Project Manager Olivier Marthe. Her Southern Spars high modulus mast came out of the same mould as Endeavour, at 55.5m it is a little taller than Endeavour and is also equipped with the latest EC6 continuous rigging.

Endeavour – Refitted Sailing yacht of the year

Originally built in 1934 and reduced to being a complete wreck in the 1980s, luxury charter yacht Endeavour’s 2011 re-launch marked the completion of an extensive 18-month refit at Yachting Developments’ yard based in Hobsonville, Auckland. The Yachting Developments’ team has taken extreme care throughout the refit to preserve as much of the vessel as practical while taking advantage of 21st century sailing systems, such as a carbon fibre mast and EC6 carbon fibre rigging package from Southern Spars for enhanced performance and improved functionality.

Endeavour yacht’s future performance will benefit from the significant weight savings – an incredible 900kg on the boom, and three tonne on the rig and rigging from her previous rig – achieved by the Southern Spars’ Custom Projects team based in Avondale, Auckland.

Southern Spars would like to congratulate all of the boat yards, designers and suppliers involved in this years awards.

Future Fibres announce excellent 2012 and positive outlook for 2013

December 21, 2012

Future Fibres had a pleasure of announcing yesterday that the company has predicted to achieve a yearly growth of 30% in 2012, and pointed our Future Fibres’ positive outlook for 2013, with important race projects and a €30 million stronger order book.

Future Fibres

Future Fibres

Following what’s been described as ‘better-than-expected opportunities in the superyacht and race markets’, the Valencia based composite mast and rigging specialist revealed 2012 sales would, for the first time, exceed €15 million.

Commenting on the announcement, Future Fibres’ director, Phil Anniss, added: “In what remains a challenging environment, we are delivering double digital growth across our mast and rigging divisions, as well as significant developments in our special projects team. The mast division, which is just two years old, has been the biggest winner, with an increasing number of owners and yards choosing complete packages with us – demonstrating the speed by which we have become a preferred supplier at the very top end of the market.”

Perini Navi sailing yacht Hull C.2193

Perini Navi sailing yacht Hull C.2193

Helping to reinforce its position as a key player in the mast industry, 2012 saw Future Fibres chosen by one of the world’s most respected superyacht yards, Perini Navi, to supply a complete carbon mast, boom and rigging package for its latest 60m sloop. Work is well underway on the first of three 30m furling booms, which will be the largest ever constructed. This follows the completion of a complete set of Future Fibres’ TSC carbon rigging, which is due for delivery in the new year and destined for Perini’s 60m ketch, currently named sailing yacht C.2193.

“It’s great to see Future Fibres in such a strong financial position and working with the very top tier yards. The strength and quality of our order book, has enabled us to initiate a search for larger premises and an extensive recruitment drive, as we look to significantly expand the existing workforce over a three-year period. All in all, it is going to be an exciting few years!” Anniss concluded.

Future Fibres is currently looking to attract a number of key roles to the business in Valencia and is also exploring additional manufacturing sites as it looks to manage its capacity over the longer term, as Jim Lotz, Future Fibres’ sales director explains:

“Our strategy for the last three years has been about retaining the R&D crown. We created the composite rigging industry 15 years ago so we feel we have a responsibility, and a desire, to continue to push the market in the right direction by pioneering the latest materials and construction techniques. That investment is now paying off dividends. Our latest carbon products have been proven in the toughest conditions – which provides us with the detailed technical information buyers need and want. As a result, we are increasingly seeing buyers carefully assess all the available systems and making an informed choice to go with Future Fibres.”

Lotz continued: “We saw this in action recently when we won the contract to provide a complete mast, boom and rigging package for the mini maxi, Caol ila R. Her new owner wanted an out-and-out race boat that’s able to compete at the highest levels and against the very latest yachts. Having the optimum rig package goes a long way to making that possible and we are delighted he, like all our customers, feel that we are the right team, offering the best solution.”

John Hilderbrand of Darkhorse Yachting, representing Caol ila R’s owner, highlighted the reason for choosing Future Fibres adding: “Working with the Future Fibres guys is just easy. They all know their stuff, the design team is made up of some of the world’s best people and I have complete confidence in the product so it is not a tricky decision.”

Glasshape Ltd brings DuraShield® Superyacht Glass product line to America

November 02, 2012

Glasshape Ltd, who manufactures the renowned DuraShield® Superyacht Glass product line, has officially announced their presence in USA with the opening of their office on the west coast of North America this month. The opening of the USA office was announced by key directors of Glasshape, including Managing Director Andrew Forrest.

Glasshape

Glasshape

Glasshape Ltd, an ISO-9001 and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) endorsed facility, has catered to the Australasian Superyacht industry for many years, specializing in both Curved and Flat IACS Classed Superyacht Glazing.

American yards, catching wind of the company’s revolutionary “turn-key” measure-supply-install programs, soon grew to the point where presence in the North American marketplace became mandatory to fulfil demand of the industry’s high end manufacturers.

ABS and MCA LY2 Code Glass requirements quickly endorsed the company, whose unique glass manufacturing processes offers Superstructure Glazing which exceeds design pressure requirements stipulated by the industry’s governing Class Societies.

Located in Washington State, the ‘West Coast Superyacht hub’, Glasshape’s new project and support facility services the existing Superyacht customer base across the United States, and additionally providing support to the growing refit market. “Landed presence in the States was inevitable-actually a demand” mentioned Forrest, “the demand for our unique product has been overwhelming throughout the past 24 months”.

Centred in Seattle, the new facility is headed by Mr Ian Gracey of Torrid Marine Systems. Gracey, having many years’ experience in the high-end yacht and Superyacht sector was well associated with the DuraShield® branding. “We were well aware of Glasshape’s ever increasing presence and demand in North America, and I desired to be part of the Most Innovative Marine Glass Company in the World” Gracey said at Fort Lauderdale. “When the opportunity came, it was just too good to ignore” he added.

Glasshape posted increased USA sales of 37% in the 12 months ending September 2012. Such excellent results have been produced due to the wide glass range, having attained full certification to American Bureau of Shipping.

Lady Linda superyacht

Glasshape have their DuraShield® Marine Glass installed on many significant projects in the States already. Some examples of their expertise can be seen on Superyacht Lady Linda, motor yacht DB9 and yacht Tzumat among others. New and innovative marine glass applications can also be viewed on sailing yacht Ohana, which is scheduled for launching shortly. This unique Dubois built superyacht features spectacular glass, including an all-glass interior staircase designed and built by Glasshape.

New Hybrid propulsion system by WhisperPower USA introduced at the 2012 FLIBS

October 26, 2012

WhisperPower USA are to unveil their new hybrid propulsion and power systems for megayachts to the North American market at the 2012 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show. The new green technology of the hybrid propulsion and power systems reduces emissions, noise and fuel usage. The WhisperPower Hybrid Power System has been under development and testing for more than two years. One system is in operation aboard a new 40m J-class sailing yacht Rainbow, built by Holland Jachtbouw and two others are being installed on large sailing yachts in the Netherlands.

New Hybrid propulsion system by WhisperPower USA introduced at the 2012 FLIBS

New Hybrid propulsion system by WhisperPower USA introduced at the 2012 FLIBS

The Hybrid Power System is based on WhisperPower’s variable-speed Genverter technology, which consists of an intelligent permanent magnet alternator with an ultra-compact diesel engine fitted inside a sound shield. The Genverter feeds a DC-power bus connected to the propulsion systems and the DC-AC power conversion system for the hotel load. The system also includes deep-cycle long-life Lithium-Ion batteries, a DC-power distribution system, an efficient DC-AC inverter, high-efficiency electric drive motors for the propeller shaft and an overall power management system.

Installation options are parallel hybrid or serial hybrid drive. The parallel hybrid system maintains the mechanical connection between the engine and propeller shaft, with the electric motor acting on the drive shaft in parallel with the engine. You can drive the propeller directly from the engine or from the electric motor, or from both. You can also disconnect the propeller for a stand-alone generator function. The engine is disconnected during regeneration. In a serial hybrid system, the conventional diesel engine is replaced by an electric motor. A battery bank is connected to the common electric power bus, which is connected to the motor. The electrical energy is either provided by the variable speed Genverter or by the battery bank. With large batteries, you can have long periods of electric propulsion and running electrical appliances without resorting to the generator.

The batteries are charged from the Genverter power pack or shore power. They can also be recharged during sailing by the shaft generator.

“The design goal was to create a sophisticated power management system that can provide silent electric propulsion for an hour or more and manage the ship’s house loads for extended periods of time strictly on battery power,” said Rudolf Mes, general manager of WhisperPower USA. “Our Genverter-based system reduces emissions and audible noise inside and outside the vessel and reduces fuel consumption by up to 30 percent by running the ship’s propulsion from the batteries during periods of low energy consumption, such as nighttime.”

In addition to the Hybrid Power System, WhisperPower USA will show a full range of power generation and management solutions at the Fort Lauderdale Show.

“With WhisperPower’s wide selection of generators, chargers and electrical management products, we can supply complete integrated electrical systems for recreational and commercial vessels of all sizes,” Mes said. “We also stock a complete inventory of WhisperPower replacement parts and consumables for all Mastervolt generators currently in the market.”

WhisperPower USA is showing in Booth 1236 at the Fort Lauderdale Show.

Saturn Marine – a New Zealand based consultancy for HALYARD products and services

October 10, 2012

One of the top specialists in the science of effectively decreasing noise and vibration on any type of vessel, from working commercial craft to luxury superyachts, HALYARD, has teamed up with Saturn Marine in New Zealand who will assist local boat builders and users benefit from noise and vibration reduction on their boats.

Halyard Products and Services

Halyard Products and Services

Saturn Marine is headed by Bob Doyle, who was formerly based in the UK and has 20 years of expertise working with Halyard.  Halyard is recognised as one of the largest designers and manufacturers of bespoke marine exhaust systems and supplier of equipment designed to reduce airborne, structural and engine noise on boats.

Now based at premises in Picton, Doyle and his team have been involved with installing Halyard products and services on board a variety of vessels from commercial working boats to bespoke superyachts.  He says, “Reducing noise and vibration significantly improves well-being at sea, and can even reduce the effects of sea-sickness and fatigue.  This is especially the case on working boats, where crew can spend many hours on board.  Excessive engine noise or vibration can be easily rectified through specifically designed engine and generator silencers, or products such as the Aquadrive, which correctly aligns the propeller shaft drive with the engine reducing structural vibration.”

While some working boat manufacturers have only recently started adopting measures to increase crew well-being at sea, at the other end of the scale, superyacht designers and manufacturers have always placed great importance on making the experience on board as quiet and smooth as possible for guests and crew.

Peter Dorrington, Systems Engineer at Fitzroy Yachts says, “The company has worked with Halyard for many years and is pleased that there is now a local representative in New Zealand.  Using email and CAD drawings, Halyard has created a number of bespoke silencer systems for Fitzroy working directly with the design team in the UK, and the company is involved with its latest G50 custom design aluminum hull 50 metre yacht”.  Rodney Martin, Managing Director says, “We always like to deal with the manufacturers direct, but the fact that Halyard now has a representative with extensive experience in country does help a lot.”

World’s two tallest masts of sailing yacht Salute and superyacht M5 serviced by Marine Results

October 05, 2012

Marine Results, an international rigging and structural inspection company has just carried out service work on the masts of sailing yacht M5 and superyacht Salute – two of the world’s tallest masts.  Marine Results inspected the rig of fast cruising sloop Salute which has the world’s tallest aluminium mast at a towering 75 metres.  But even that measurement was dwarfed by the next project on the schedule, that of the giant 89 metres high rig belonging to the 75m yacht M5 (ex Mirabella).  Sailing yacht M5 is not only the world’s largest sailing sloop but she has the world’s tallest carbon rig.

Marine Results personnel work on the gigantic M5 sailing yacht mast.

“We have worked extensively with both yachts since they were launched,” comments Jon Morris of Marine Results. “Following completion of the two most recent projects we reflected that we had just carried out work on the world’s two largest rigs in their particular construction category.  We are pretty proud of that achievement and the way that it illustrates our capabilities.”

In the case of the 56m Perini Navi yacht Salute, Marine Results carried out an extensive inspection after the team un-stepped the rig at the Perini Navi yard in La Spezia, where she was originally built.  Marine Results then worked with Perini’s mast division to complete the inspection on the mast and rigging systems. Marine Results specialises in a range of non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques to check for concealed stressing and damage.

The second of the two record breakers, the M5 yacht had her mast pulled out as part of a substantial one-year refit at Pendennis Shipyard in Cornwall.  Marine Results was called in to unstep the rig prior to an extensive modification programme which is expected to last until the end of 2012.

“Unstepping the rig was no small job,” said Morris. “The rig weighs a colossal 46 tonnes. To give you an idea of the size of the job, when we removed the boom vang, this alone was 9.5 metres long and weighed 900 kg.

“One of our strengths is our ability to deploy our teams around the world to carry out service work on dozens of the world’s most advanced racing and cruising superyachts,” concludes Jon Morris.  Marine Results is based in Hamble, England and La Ciotat, France.
