Fun in the sun

Doqueve Motor Boat. We have a lovely Family cruising motor yacht for sale with excellent accommodation if you are looking for a place in the sun. Great for weekends out in the bay or exploring the coast. Made by Doqueve, a respected Spanish boat builder, the yacht has been in Spain since purchased new. All the papers are correct, with VAT documents as required. The current owner bought the yacht in December 2019 and has gone out sailing only once since then. She has been used as an apartment in the Mediterainina for the rest of the time. The engine was last serviced in October 2019—antifouling and hull check in May 2021. The owner is selling because he wants to buy a bigger boat. Available for viewings in Port Ginesta.

Stop boat smels

Dealing with a smelly boat loo (Marine Heads)

How to stop smells in my boat? It is well documented that most smell in a boat loo come from decomposing microscopic marine life. Saltwater teems with life and is used on most boats to flush a marine head. Therefore, if the saltwater is not rinsed with freshwater, like milk or fresh produce, it goes sour. You can buy all sorts of chemicals to deal with the problem. I never used any marine cleaning product. I will explain my method of avoiding a smelly loo below. Before you read that, if you suffered from a smell in the Heads compartment for some time, you might need to replace the piping. I know customers use all sorts of chemicals to eliminate a persistent smell. In the end, replacing the flexy waste pipe can be the only solution as that pipe can become degraded.

I will not get into the complex holding tank setup as the subject is worthy of another post. Let’s assume you only seek guidance on keeping a marine loo smell-free.

Keeping the Heads smelling fresh

Most boats and yachts have a head setup similar to the image on the left showing a Jabsco manual loo. Perhaps you are lucky enough to have a quiet flush electric loo? A similar principle applies. However, the electric loo does not have a hand pump and the modern ones are flushed with fresh water, as shown in the right-hand image.

Hand-pumped seawater heads have the potential to be very unhygienic. The pump handle shaft can spread lots of bacteria and is often contaminated with water passing the housing top seal.

My method of flushing includes using the hand shower freshwater system to rinse any remains of seawater from the loo system finally. This way of cleaning the loo after use has many benefits. I also leave a bottle of baby oil in the Heads compartment giving a final squirt into the bowl before pumping this out. When the seal is worn, the liquid will get onto your hands as you use the pump. That’s not good at all! The baby oil helps to add a little life to the seal that sits below the handle.

Rinse the loo with fresh water at least once a day.

Most marine compartments have an electric bilge pump that evacuates shower water. The compartment should be fully waterproof. So rinse the loo and then rinses down the compartment with fresh water at least once a day. Most boats carry an abundance of freshwater. It is essential to keep this water flowing, so liberal shower use cannot harm. Far too often, I talk to people who believe fresh water should be rationed. If you keep a boat in a marina, freshwater will look after your investment, and you should use lots of it.

Clean your bilge

The same principle applies to the above, although a slight word of caution because some marine operators get upset if you start pumping bilge water into the marina. So for the sake of being correct, let’s assume you are in a place with no restrictions.

Using plenty of hot soapy water

Washing your bilges with lots of fresh soapy water will eliminate most bilge smells. Greasy substances can be first dissolved using plenty of hot soapy water. The choice of chemical you use rests on your conscience, but for me, a concentrated household liquid soap (the same you use for dishes) works as well as anything I found in any chandlers. You also have the advantage household soap is less expensive than a specialist marine-branded product.

Consider painting it after you have washed your bilge (I have used a steamer before). In my opinion, a boat bilge should always be dry and immaculately clean. I never found a boat with a clean bilge that had a boat odour issue. No matter how old your boat is, keeping the underfloor sections of a boat clean is always the best practice.

You are selling your boat. I have been a broker for many years. I am asked to assess the value of boats daily. It’s clear to me that a boat free from nasty smells is the one that sells first for the most.

Selling Your Boat in Port Ginesta

Selling Your Boat in Port Ginesta

Do you have a boat for sale in Port Ginesta Marina Barcelona or anywhere in Spain? Perhaps with the Covid Pandemic, you haven’t been able to visit for some time? If you think buyers are not out in force now, you are wrong. We have lots of buyers for Motor Boats and Yachts in all price ranges.

Boats for Sale Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona

The market

Buyers are out in force and are busy looking for a boat for sale in Port Ginesta and have been through the winter months. Most buyers are Spanish and Northern Europeans. We haven’t seen the Brits on the scene for some time, possibly due to Brexit. There is considerable uncertainty surrounding the VAT status of boats and yachts imported and exported from the UK.

What is happening to the VAT

When posting this, the news is not very clear about VAT changes to boats and yachts. It would appear that the UK-registered boats will be treated the same as boats outside the EU and will not be unfairly penalised if they stay in Europe. Travel rules are clear for boats leaving the EU and coming back. For more information about changes in VAT rules, please get in touch with us in Port Ginesta.

Flag registration

Free Valuation

Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona offers a free boat valuation service. We also operate a no-sale no-fee brokerage. Generally, yacht values have increased during the last six months. This is not the case for vessels that have not been maintained. Buyers want to see service history more than anything, so if you’re asking for the top-price boat, please ensure maintenance is up to date, and then you stand a good chance of selling.

Boats that have not seen owners for twelve months will be marked down slightly if not lifted out for service. The yard in Port Ginesta has been tranquil in recent months, no doubt, because owners cannot travel. Either the situation will remain the same, or the yard will become oversubscribed during February and March. Either way, call our office if you are considering selling or need maintenance. We will be happy to arrange this for you.

More details and local information is available from Chiara at Network Yacht Brokers Barcelona.

What is the Diesel Bug and How Can You…

maig 6, 2021
by Network BCN

Microbial contamination of diesel by Rob Woodward

Diesel bugs are the most significant cause of a diesel engine breakdown. Sure, It’s not the only cause of your engine stopping, but it’s right up there with things you don’t want to happen and can be easily avoided.
You’re very unlikely to suffer this fuel problem in your diesel car or truck because the fuel in your car passes through the system relatively quickly. Diesel bug is often found in boats’ fuel tanks with low fuel flow (not used daily).

My Background

I started sailing in 1992, and my hobby quickly became an obsession. In 1996, I moved to the coast and opened a marine engineering business in North Wales, UK. Before that, I owned a motor repair shop, having served an apprenticeship as a Deisel Mechanic looking after a fleet of trucks.
I owned several yachts over the years. I always modified the fuel system on my boats to avoid getting caught by the Deisel bug problem.

So what’s the long-term fix?

Some boat owners use a Deisel bug treatment, and I recommend adding this to your boat fuel tank as a precaution when buying a used boat or yacht. Plenty of good products exist on the market; it takes little research to find a good one. Diesel bug treatment is not a long-term fix, so you must know if the problem reoccurs. My suggestion will warn you about diesel bug infection and save you the inconvenience of sampling fuel during your daily engine checks for water contamination, the other major cause of boating breakdowns.

The solution is to fit a Glass Bowl Water Trap in the fuel line. It is a necessary upgrade; I wish it were an optional extra from new on all diesel-powered boats.

Once upon a time, It was common practice to fit a Glass Bowel Water Trap in engine compartments. Regulations have stopped manufacturers from doing this. My understanding is they are considered this practice to be a fire hazard. The jury is still out on that rule, especially now that modern water traps have become more fireproof. To remain legal, If you want to upgrade your boat or yacht, the water trap must be outside the engine space unless someone can tell me otherwise.
A decent engineer will find a safe place for the modification that’s legal and accessible. Probably good practice to keep the existing water trap and pre-filter system that will be most likely be housed in the engine compartment.

Canister water traps

If you are happy to sample a small amount of fuel from a canister-type filter, that’s your choice, but remember, every time you open the fuel system to drain down a sample, you will potentially allow air into the fuel system (and that’s not good). The other big no-no about taking a sample is Diesel stinks; it’s like fixing your bike in your home’s kitchen. To see half a litre of fuel without disturbing it or contaminating the results within a glass bowl is so simple. This is the fastest way to ensure you have no worries about the fuel supply on your boat. A glass bowl water trap can also be the first item to look at if your engine starts to stutter. If you get water in the fuel, it will show up in seconds.

Yacht Broker Job

febrer 20, 2021juny 12, 2023
by Network BCN

My experience (Rob Woodward)

Become a Yacht Broker. It all started for me over thirty years ago, launching my 21-foot Coribee Yacht called “Banana Split” for the first time, messing about and then being horrified during recovery. It fell off the trailer! Shortly after this low point, my hobby became an obsession and a profession.

Join us to become a Yacht Broker.

I got my second Yacht, “Kuan Yin”, a 36-foot sailing ketch. Owning a bigger boat than a daysailer, I felt the scale of responsibility shift from forgivable and expected to the stuff of nightmares. Mistakes were going to be expensive! I realised quickly I needed help and knowledge. So, I set about getting every boating qualification I could. Circumstances fell into place (as once in a lifetime they do for a lucky few). I was allowed almost unrestricted access to my daily drug of boats and boating. I was finally selling everything to buy a Yacht Broker’s business. This was only the start of my Yacht Brokers’ life.

Five years of experience around boats is enough.

Lots of trades have an established path that delivers the ultimate goal. The Marine industry does not offer a set path to becoming a Yacht Broker. However, five years of working around boats and then learning to become a Yacht Broker is a standard route.

The most obvious candidates to slip into a job as a Yacht Broker will be ex-charter skippers or Super-yacht crews. Besides, understanding boats, skippers and crew will have mixed with people who bought a boat or might be considering buying one. Nothing strange about people who buy boats and yachts, but they are more likely to be engaged in an exciting conversation with a Broker who has boating experience. If you are a boat owner with sales experience, transferring your skills to become a yacht broker is easy, just so long as an established Brokerage supports you while you learn the trade.

Happy customers

Boat buyers don’t need to share all the circumstances of how they became lucky to afford such a luxury as a boat or yacht. Therefore, a Yacht Broker does not need to sell the idea of buying a boat to a client.

Boats for sale in Barcelona

A broker’s primary job involves sitting between two parties, getting to a deal and ensuring fair play between buyer and seller to the best of his ability. It’s the seller that pays the Brokers fee. However, the Broker is very aware when the old owner has gone; the Broker is left supporting the buyer.

Our testimonials page

Selling in a more traditional sense occurs when a new boat is sold (the subject of a future blog). It is indeed subtly different from a Yacht broker’s job.

Working for yourself as a Broker

Generally, unless you are part of a more prominent organisation that supports you through tough times, Simply starting as an independent Broker will not work. Building up a portfolio of boats that will sustain your overheads is almost impossible. If you can fund three to four years in a Great location, you might be able to build a Yacht Brokerage business. In my opinion, anyone selling a franchise operation where you don’t own a stake in that business will always be the winner, and you will be nothing more than a tool that helps the franchise grow.

Sell your boat with us.

Joining a Cooperative offers the benefits of a large organisation. All the rewards of your hard work as an individual business stay with you. Helping us all to build the brand has significant advantages in the future. Existing Network Yacht Brokers businesses have been sold to new owners wanting to enter the industry. The right to sell an existing licence to operate as a Network Yacht Broker is a fundamental principle of the Group. We also allow some selected partner companies to grow a brokerage using the Group brand as part of their business, provided they follow basic brand guidelines.

How I Became a Yacht Broker, follow this link to a video.

Is it a young man’s game? Become a Yacht Broker

Of all the mistakes I made, becoming a Yacht Broker was not one of them. As a mature person, I have life skills that I can pass on to the next generation. My customers tend to be similar to me, although I notice they are getting younger, which is odd. When I started as a Broker, my clients were much older than me. Anyway, I will work that one out when I retire… haha.

The point is you can become a Yacht Broker at any age. Essential qualifications are a passion for boats and a love of people. Honesty will sustain your career. Getting that first break is tough. My advice is, “Never Give Up”! I have trained plenty of young Brokers, who became my friends.

February 2021, if you want info about Jobs in our Group, please get in touch with us. I note that several companies are currently advertising a Yacht Broker Job. Perhaps you are thinking of setting up a business as a Yacht Broker? Talk to me; many opportunities exist in Medditerrainain if you fancy setting up your own company.

Sitges News

juliol 20, 2020juny 12, 2023
by Network BCN

Sitges is a great yachting centre.

We love the town of Sitges at Network Yachts Broker Barcelona. Apart from sailing and boating, we like the culture and art it offers, and it is a pleasure to share the latest information we have with you.

Usually, in summer, the port of Sitges is filled with music. Events take place outdoors and cater to every taste in music and festival. Time to party in Sitges begins between July and August. Most events are free of charge, including the famous “Festival Concerts de Mitjanit.

The 2019 Concerts de Mitjanit offered a full proposal with different music styles with a special tribute to all-time’s best female voices.

Other festivals and events are listed below: also Barcelona Festival and Fun.

The Festival of the Virgen del Carmen,
“La Gran Noche Lírica”,
The Sitges Big Band, short films with the collaboration of the International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia.
Urban Art Show,

This was possible thanks to Sònia Felip, the Foundation of the Port of Aiguadolç. To her, culture is everyone’s heritage, and she feels it is of utmost importance but also a great joy to bring it closer to the people of the port, boat owners or not.

Unfortunately, this year, the “Concerts de Mitjanit” is suspended for the first time in sixteen years due to the risk of contagion by Covid19.

The port of Sitges and its Foundation have tried to resist until the last moment to continue celebrating it for another year.

Although they are following government guidelines, the current situation seems to be aggravated, and therefore, it is better to be patient and wait for 2021. They are forced to prioritize and make difficult decisions in these challenging times.

If you want, you can also visit the new “Library of the Port”, where people give a second life to books, which remains open all year round.

We propose other fun and curious plans at Network Yacht Broker Barcelona by the new guidelines.

@NetworkYachtBrokerBarcelona

We look forward to answering any queries and giving you information about buying or renting a boat in Stiges with Network Yacht Broker Barcelona.

Today, in Network Yacht Broker Barcelona, we will tell you more about environmental certification. We will speak about Sitges and The Biosphere Destination.

First of all, what is the Biosphere Destination Certification?

Biosphere Destination is a voluntary and independent certification system based on sustainability and continuous improvement.

The certification is internationally recognized by the Institute of Responsible Tourism, a non-profit entity supporting UNESCO and the World Tourism Organization.

It is an excellent reference to international tourism.

Sitges constantly improves its culture and environment.

The city of Sitges has successfully supered the audit, and now the new objective of Sitges is to achieve the Gold category.

Therefore, getting to the next level implies that Sitges will adhere to several companies that follow the Biosphere commitment.

Currently, 15 companies have to start the process of joining this 2020. The mayor of Sitges highlights that “it is one more step to be more present” and “the importance of the work between public and private companies.”

Sitges should respect more than 112 objectives to have the Biosphere Destination Certification. The company values if tourism, social and economic policy support for the local community, and improving cultural and environmental heritage. Thanks to the audit, Sitges understood his strengths and opportunities, which will establish a new plan of action for the following year.

The town hall and its advisers have created a thirty improvement list and eight strength points that must be maintained and further improved.

The most important projects are the Sitges Online Reputation Study which includes concrete measures like a new cleaning contract, encouraging the resident’s recovery task, and maintaining the raft of the “Jardines de Terramar.

Advisors of Sitges constantly work to improve and sustain the certification, which accredits Stiges as a development model.

Luís Miguel García (tourism conciliar)

He said it is essential for Sitges to have better private-sector involvement. However, Sitges needs to keep its position as a sustainable tourist destination of international recognition”.

At Network Yacht Broker Barcelona, we think the best way to visit a place like Sitges, following and respecting guidelines, is to travel by boat. It permits visiting different places without taking a car o a plane, booking different hotels, and many other things, as we explain on our web page.

If you want more information about buying a yacht or yacht charter, follow us on Instagram @NetworkYachtBrokersBarcelona or visit http://www.networkyachtbrokersbarcelona.com.

We look forward to answering any queries and giving you all the information you want about boats and Sitges.

Barcelona festivals and fun in June 2018

juny 21, 2018juny 28, 2023
by Network BCN

What is Barcelona like to visit in June?

Barcelona Festivals and Fun June 2018. The summer starts the festival season, making Barcelona Province buzz with activity. June is a great month to be here because it is still not very crowded for most of the month. The hoards arrive at the end of July/August when many Spanish companies close for the holidays. You can still get a table in any excellent restaurant, and the beaches are not yet a sea of colourful parasols. This year, we have had tons of rain already. The surrounding area has had plenty of water, so it is greener and healthier than usual. Now, the sun is well and truly out, and the temperature is up. This time of year usually gives us excellent beach weather, but it´s still cool at night. In Barcelona city, one of the most significant festival events each year is the “Nit de St Joan” on 23-24 June. The festival honours both the birth of St. John the Baptist and the Summer Solstice. This festival does bring in crowds, with around 70,000 people in the city for the weekend. It´s like Bonfire Night and New Year´s Eve rolled into one. Beach bonfires are lit, fireworks are everywhere, and an epic street party rocks until the small hours. Revellers often opt for a midnight swim, an age-old custom representing a ¨Baptismal cleanse¨ (or having fun after a few glasses of cava!). Sitges and Castelldefels have smaller versions of the party for those who don´t want to be among many people in the city.

Music is in everyone´s minds as June is also the start of the music festival season.

Primavera (Spring) Sound is a rock and pop festival at the beginning of June – in its 19th year – with open-air concert stages all over the city. The middle of the month also gives us Sonar – a DJ festival offering a chance to dance in the city´s squares. Live appearances by well-known artists are happening this month at the Festival Jardins de Pedralbes. We will see Simple Minds, Elvis Costello, and Emili Sande, and it´s not unusual for us to have another visit from Tom Jones! Shakira is playing at the Palau St. Jordi. There are often free concerts in the main square at the fascinating miniature village of Poble Espanyol. This is worth visiting to see the miniature version of Spain´s (architectural) greatest hits. At the end of the month is the Gay Pride Parade and festival in Barcelona. A smaller version of this festival has already happened in Sitges. This is a very

social occasion with several free music events and the opportunity to dress up in wacky costumes for the parade. For a real Catalan experience, go and see the Castellers. This month several of the nearby towns of St. Pere de Ribes or Sant Cugat are hosting the ¨human tower¨ competitions, which run nearly yearly. Try not to think about ¨health and safety¨ while you watch a brave five-year-old child scamper to the top of up to 5 levels of people!

AMEL Super Maramu Yacht SOLD by Network Yacht Brokers

març 15, 2018juny 28, 2023
by Network BCN

Amel Super Maramu Yacht

Step onboard and sail away on this Amel Super Maramu Yacht. We think you might want this if you’re getting ready to travel the globe. Designed by Henri Amel & Jaques Carteau in 1993, she is an AMEL Super Maramu. She represents a premier brand that became a famous well-found globetrotter. We do have, from time to time, yachts listed for sale that include everything on board. However, she has got everything you might need. We spent time below the deck and enjoyed looking at the impressive stack of charts. They showed many parts of the world. The inventory is so good that it could be possible to set sail around the globe shortly after purchase.

Interior

Some design features are unique to AMEL. Even the gamble on the food bows is excellent. We did like the aft cabin. It is an excellent distance from the main saloon and gives an owner or skipper distance from the crew for contemplation, should it be needed. The below deck is well-kept, and the beautiful yacht is pleasing to the eye. The owner has agreed to leave behind a lovely oil painting of Nice, France. This is on the wall in the saloon. This painting, along with the luxurious fabric replaced when the reupholstery work was done, helps to give this AMEL Yacht an individual feel.

On deck, Amel Super Maramu Yacht

The running rigging was replaced in 2016. It’s a welcome improvement to the look of this yacht. When she was in Greece, we were told the engine was replaced, and at the time, she underwent extensive engineering work. The hardtop offers excellent shelter from the inevitable spray one encounter during a passage. Reefing the yacht is easy, as the primary and forestay have electric motors positioned at the base. This direct power reefing system is a great design feature that has been replicated recently on other brands. Follow this link to the spec for more technical details.

Keep your boat in Spain

febrer 20, 2018juliol 24, 2023
by Network BCN

Have you thought about moving your boat to the sunshine?

Perhaps you wonder where to keep your boat in Spain to make the most of the precious time you have on it. We think Port Ginesta Marina will be an excellent choice for a base and well worth investigating. Below are just a few reasons why we like it.

Port Ginesta Marina is just a short distance from Barcelona International Airport. It is the biggest marina in the area and can hold up to 1500 boats and yachts. Being about ten miles outside the city centre, we benefit from a bit of quiet away from the hustle and bustle of Europe’s most vibrant city. Port Ginesta is close to a lovely marina within the Sitges’ holiday town.

We cannot think you would not like our marina as you can easily sail to Barcelona city centre for lunch or overnight and Mallorca is only a short sail away. We have miles of beautiful beaches and bars waiting for you to enjoy. Over 600 flights a month arrive in Barcelona from the UK. We are a little over an hour away by plane from many European cities.

So if you are looking for something different or have a family who wants more than just boats, beaches and bars, Port Ginesta should be on your radar for a place to keep your boat in 2018. We put a short page together about Port Ginesta’s facilities; please follow the link and call us if you need further information.
