Innovation Corner To Launch at Palma Superyacht Village 2023

The Palma Superyacht Village will for the first time host an ‘Innovation Corner’ in collaboration with Yachting Ventures , providing a space for startups to showcase new technologies

Palma International Boat Show (PIBS) kicks off the Mediterranean yachting season in Mallorca from 27th April-1st May 2023. With more than 300 companies exhibiting at Palma’s Moll Vell marina, the 2023 edition is set to be the biggest and best yet.

For the first time ever, PIBS will host an Innovation Corner during the 4-day event to support startups in the yachting sector. As a result of this new initiative, startups and industry professionals can talk about the future of yachting and what technology can do for us.

This year Palma Superyacht Village has generously allocated a lot of space for the Innovation Corner. This includes an outdoor terrace and is sure to attract a lot of media attention. The Yachting Ventures team will help shortlist the startups and invite them, as well as organize the logistics.

Arne Ploch, Palma Superyacht Village Managing Director, commented on the partnership:

“We are thrilled to announce that the Innovation Corner, a new initiative in collaboration with Yachting Ventures and the Palma Superyacht Village, will be featured at the 2023 edition of the Palma Boat Show. As an island, we understand the tremendous contribution of the yachting industry to our economy and acknowledge the significance of remaining innovative. We are eager to meet the selected start-ups participating in the Innovation Corner and offer them the opportunity to showcase their products and services to the attendees of PIBS this year.”

Schwimmender Palast: Megayacht von unbekanntem US-Millionär liegt vor der Playa de Palma

Mit der "infinite jest" und der "jester" liegen zwei eindrucksvolle schiffe vor can pastilla – eines ist ganz neu, das andere ein veteran.

04·07·24 | 17:45

In Ihrem Profil gespeicherter Artikel

Die "Infinite Jest" am Donnerstag (4.7.) vor Can Pastilla. Pressepool

Schichtwechsel an der Playa de Palma: Wurde Anfang der Woche noch die eindrucksvolle Yacht "Lady Moura" des mexikanischen Unternehmers Ricardo Salinas Pliego von Badegästen in Can Pastilla bestaunt, liegt am Donnerstag (4.7.) das nächste bemerkenswerte Wassergefährt vor dem Strand. Dabei handelt es sich um die 75 Meter lange Megayacht "Infinite Jest".

Unbekannter US-Eigentümer - ein Literaturfan?

Wem das in Weiß gehaltene Schiff gehört, ist nicht klar. Dem gut informierten Portal "SuperYachtFan" zufolge handelt es sich aber um einen US-Bürger, der mindestens über ein Vermögen von 500 Millionen US-Dollar verfügt. Anders wird er sich das auf 60 Millionen Dollar geschätzte Schiff mit seinen jährlichen Wartungskosten von sechs Millionen Dollar auch kaum leisten können. Womöglich könnte der Besitzer ein Literatur-Fan sein. Bei "Infinite Jest" handelt es sich um einen 1996 erschienenen Roman des US-Autors David Foster Wallace . Im Deutschen erschien das komplexe, mit vielen Fußnoten versehene Werk im Jahr 2009 unter dem Titel "Unendlicher Spaß".

Das Schiff lief im Juli 2023 in der türkischen Werft Proteksan Turquoise Yachts vom Stapel. Gestaltet wurde es von Studio Vallicelli, Sinot Yacht Design war für die Innengestaltung verantwortlich. Die Yacht fährt unter der Flagge der karibischen Cayman Islands und bietet Platz für 14 Gäste, unter anderem in eigens hergerichteten VIP-Kabinen, sowie für 21 Crew-Mitglieder.

Die Jungfernfahrt unternahm das Schiff standesgemäß durch das Mittelmeer, bevor es in Richtung Südamerika ging. Anfang des Jahres schipperte die Yacht dann los zu einem Törn in die Antarktis , wie das Magazin "Boat International" berichtet. Drei Jahre lang habe man sich auf diese Reise vorbereitet, erzählte Kapitän Tim Davison dem Magazin.

Die "Jester" am Donnerstag (4.7.) vor Can Pastilla. Pressepool

Auch die "Jester" liegt vor der Playa de Palma

Wie es der Zufall will, lag vor der Playa de Palma am Donnerstag noch eine andere Yacht, die einen ähnlichen Namen hat . Die "Jester" wurde 1972 in Finnland gebaut und fährt unter jamaikanischer Flagge. Mit ihren 68 Metern steht sie dem modernen Nachbarboot in Sachen Größe in nichts nach. Nur das Design weist darauf hin, dass das Schiff etwas älter sein muss.

Kids can learn to sail this summer on Long Island with classes and camps

This is how Will Bradshaw, director of the Port Jefferson Yacht Club Sailing School, reassures parents who are starting a 6-year-old off in sailing class, in the smallest sailboats available: “I always tell parents it’s like sailing a bathtub with a pillowcase,” he says.

He should know — he started sailing at the school when he was just 6 himself. Older students, ages 11 and up, start in a bigger boat. “They learn from the ground up,” Bradshaw says of all the young sailors.

Long Island offers dozens of opportunities for children to learn to sail, through sailing schools, yacht clubs and town offerings. Here is a sampling:

The WaterFront Center

1 West End Ave., Oyster Bay

The center offers a Junior Summer Program for beginners ages 8 to 18 through Aug. 16. Sign up for one week or multiple weeks; each week is the same, so repeat participants can practice their knowledge, says Katie Murcott, program coordinator. Options include a course geared toward racing from 9 a.m. to noon with participants separated by ages 8 to 12 and 13 to 18, or a course called Adventure Sailing geared toward leisurely sailing taught on a catamaran, Murcott says. Participants learn the terminology of a sailboat, the points of sail in relation to the wind, and practice sailing the boat.

Don't miss a minute out east this summer. Everything North and South Fork right in your inbox.

By clicking Sign up, you agree to our privacy policy .

Cost Racing-style weeks are $445 per person; the Adventure Sailing option is $405. No membership fee is required.

Port Jefferson Yacht Club Sailing School

No need to be a member to take sailing lessons at the Port Jefferson Yacht Club — 99%  of the students are not, says Will Bradshaw, director of the sailing school. “We’ve been operating now for over 40 years and our primary programs are summer sailing camps,” Bradshaw says. The school divides students ages 6 to 17 by skill levels into beginner, intermediate and advanced. Students can attend for multiple weeks from July through Aug. 28 and can choose a morning session from 9 a.m. to  noon or an afternoon session from 1 to 4 p.m. Sessions include indoor classroom “Chalk Talks” and Port Jefferson Harbor sails to practice skills in tacking and jibing (two ways to turn the boat), basics of navigation and more.

Cost $395 per week

“We offer kids lessons in private and small-group settings,” says owner Luke Hickling, who has taught people how to sail on Long Island for 15 years. “Most of our students are total beginners who have never sailed before,” Hickling says. They start on a Flying Scot boat with an instructor in the boat with them and can progress to sailing an Opti boat by themselves with an instructor in another boat nearby.

Cost  Families can book lessons for their children at $250 for a two-hour lesson and $50 for each additional child up to six children.

Campers sign up for Sailing Camp and sail for three hours each day Monday through Friday; sailing is Quinipet’s most popular program. Depending on their sailing ability, campers ages 9 to 16 sail different-sized boats on Peconic Bay, including OPTIs, FJs, Picos and American 18s. “Most of them get to the point where they become very comfortable sailors. They do learn quite a lot,” says Kyle Ferreira, sailing director. Sailors must complete a swim test upon arrival and be able to demonstrate donning a life jacket in deep water. Campers live in air-conditioned cabins; while Quinipet is a Methodist-owned camp, all denominations of campers are welcome.

Cost Camp runs Sunday through Saturday and is $1,210 per week. If a camper returns for another week, he or she must be picked up on Saturday and return Sunday. Quinipet also offers a day-camp sailing program.

Town and village offerings

Check with your local municipality

The Village of Amityville, for instance, offers one-hour sailing lessons for children 8 and older on either Monday and Wednesday mornings or Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The children sail sunfishes that they launch from the Village beach in the Great South Bay; each lesson has two children and one instructor in the boat and lasts one hour. Lessons run through Aug. 1. The program is open to Village residents only; other municipalities have similar programs open to their residents.

Cost  $175 per child (with a cap of $500 per family)
