The Monaco Yacht Show 2014 is fulfilling the great expectations generated. This time was the official launching of the OneOcean Ventures that captured the crowd's attention and interest. OneOcean will provide superior services and facilities to the owners of superyachts with operations in Barcelona and South Florida; they intend to become the pre-eminent provider of services and facilities to the upper end of the superyacht industry and a trusted advisor to yacht owners.
OneOcean will incorporate Marine operations, including maintenance, refit, marina dockage and project management. It will also include great facilities, including marinas, restaurants, private members club, hotels and residential real estate. Furthermore the Client Advisory Services will include acquisitions and disposals, insurance introductions, project management, advisory and a range of private office skills and capabilities for Salamanca Group Clients.
Salamanca Group, the UK Based Merchant Banking and Operational Risk business are the creators and owners of this innovative project thought especially for the superyacht industry. The base of this massive project will be located, as stated previously, in Barcelona and South Florida. More specifically, the soon to be completed Marina Port Vell in Barcelona will be entirely for OneOcean, and on top of it all it is also intended to invest in the Marina Barcelona'92 (MB'92), which happens to be only Europe's largest superyacht repair facility. This will simply transform Barcelona into the most important superyacth hub of the Mediterranean Sea. Still, OneOcean is willing to double the bet by investing in Rybovich, the Huizenga family owned marina and refit shipyard in South Florida. This will not only align two of the world's largest nautical clusters, but also allow to establish coordinated operations from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
OneOcean will be a trusted international service network that aims to simplify yachting lifestyle and giving it the luxury it deserves. This brand will surprise you with its development of the OneOcean Club concept; in fact, the first private member's club is opening in Barcelona in November this year! But their expectations go even further while wanting to establish several private member clubs and even hotels and residencies in iconic locations around the world.
This great brand's new project is ideal for nautical enthusiasts! Together with the wider range of services, provided from its two key hubs, and its capability to berth and service yachts up to 180 meters, it is something worth to take a look at.
