October 26, 2011

NHC is the parent company of Newport Exhibition Group, which produces and manages multiple industry events, including the Newport International Boat Show, held at the Newport Yachting Center each year.

“This will be the third consecutive year that the Newport Charter Yacht Show will be held at the Newport Yachting Center but the first time it will be apart of the NHC family,” said Tom DeLotto, director of Newport Exhibition Group, adding that the five-day show has been in existence for 30 years and is one of only a handful of significant charter yacht shows held around the world.

“The Newport Charter Yacht Show has a solid foundation and will synergize perfectly with our company’s expertise in the yachting industry. Our 2012 show will pivot around a world-class display of luxury yachts available for charter as well as the services and amenities available to support yachts and their crews.”

The in-water vessels on display will represent primarily the Charter Yacht Industry, and an array of on-land exhibitors will add to the ambience and offer value for the captains, crews and potential charter guests. Forums and seminars also will be staged for attendees and include highly qualified industry experts speaking on subjects specific to the Charter Yacht Industry, with an emphasis on new products and technology.

“I am looking forward to having the 2012 Newport Charter Yacht Show planned by a professional organization that has experience with maximizing the potential of the show,” said Jan Henry, president of the American Yacht CharterAssociation and a charter broker with Fraser Yachts Florida, Inc.  “Marketing to the necessary industry players such as charter brokers, captains, owners and management companies will get the best showing of charter yachts and will entice the top charter brokers in the world to attend.”

Henry also noted that the 2012 Newport Charter Yacht Show will be staged while the world is focusing on Newport as the venue for the last installment of the America’s Cup World Series 2012 (June 23 through July 1).  According to DeLotto, the America’s Cup event as well as other special events slated for Newport next summer will bring new faces and energy to the already well-established show.

With a large sheltered harbor within Narragansett Bay, Newport serves as a prime destination for cruising, sailing and racing in the summer months and is highly accessible to multiple neighboring cities along the Eastern Seaboard, including New York, N.Y. and Boston, Mass.

JFA launches 43m motor yacht Axantha II – An expedition superyacht designed by Vripack

July 08, 2011

JFA shipyard is proud to announce that the delivery of motor yacht Axantha II took place in April 2011, after being launched by JFA in March 2011. Motor yacht Axantha II is an expedition style superyacht measuring 43m that was built under the hull name 22C. M/Y Axantha II was ordered by the owner of the first yacht Axantha , built and delivered by JFA in 2003. The 43m Axantha II yacht draws from the original concept of Axantha.

Also designed by the Naval Architect Vripack, expedition yacht Axantha II is by her shape and her profile destined for far reaching ocean voyages. Her hull and superstructure made of aluminium give her a moderate displacement which, combined with reasonably sized engine, allow her to reach a speed of 14.8 knots. A consumption of only 93.5 litres at 11.3 knots, allows for 7900 miles autonomy, perfect for open ocean cruising.

The interior layout and passenger flow was designed to offer guests the enjoyment of all outdoor aft areas, such as the lounges and access to the sea. The forward area is dedicated for the crew and has direct access to the forward deck. This large and clear forward deck (or tender deck) enables the storage of two 5.6 meter ribs, perfectly equipped for one day expeditions.

The interior design is conservative and elegant and is identical to the first Axantha yacht. The main deck possesses a large lounge/dining room with wide openings. A wide door gives access to the outside lounge equipped with a bar, an ideal area to relax or dine outdoors. The galley is situated on the same deck, forward of the lounge/dining room.

It includes two 750hp Cummins engines and 3 Onan generators (2×80 kW + 1x50kW). The engine room takes up the entire width of the ship in its aft part. It is extended by a lazaret that houses mainly some storage, but also a workshop equipped with a large workbench. The lazaret whose finish and details were especially meticulous, has a direct access to the swim platform. The latter is also accessible by two external staircases.

Inspired by the possibility of making long trips with a high level of comfort, Axantha II yacht leans upon technical choices that are simple, reliable and reasonable.
