Luxury Power Catamaran Follow us web: http://www.aureayachts.com/ Facebook official: https://www.facebook.com/AureaYachts Instagram official: https://www.instagram.com/aurea_yachts/ Aurea Yachts è il primo costruttore italiano specializzato nella costruzione di catamarani a motore di lusso. Cura di ogni singolo dettaglio, qualità nella costruzione e selezione attenta dei componenti, rendono le nostre imbarcazioni la migliore alternativa alle comuni monocarena. Più Stile, più Spazio, più Stabilità e più Sicurezza. _______________________________________ Aurea Yachts è una delle novità più interessanti nel panorama nautico europeo, ha di fatto creato un nuovo concetto per vivere il mare. È il primo cantiere in Europa ad aver creato un catamarano (natante) pensato esclusivamente per il diporto. Aurea Yachts propone il primo catamarano a motore con gli ingombri esterni inferiori rispetto ad un gommone (larghezza fuori tutto 3,00 m), ma con tutti i vantaggi di un catamarano. Quindi minori consumi, migliori performance, molto più spazio vivibile a bordo, ma soprattutto grande stabilità, sia in navigazione che in rada. I numeri sono invidiabili per le monocarena, in base alla motorizzazione, la velocità supera i 50 nodi, e l’autonomia è di 425 miglia (680 litri di carburante, 40 l/h a 25 nodi, 17 ore di navigazione). La coperta ha un design molto accattivante e moderno, con linee semplici ed eleganti. A bordo c’è tutto lo spazio che serve per un fine settimana in pieno comfort, con il bagno più grande della sua categoria, una cabina matrimoniale con armadio e dinette, una cucina completa e tanto spazio prendisole. Aurea 30 cabin è l’unica imbarcazione al mondo di queste dimensioni, ad avere una certificazione in categoria A (quindi senza limiti di navigazione) per 20 persone. Costruzione in infusione sottovuoto, selezione attenta della migliore impiantistica di bordo, e razionalizzazione di ogni aspetto a bordo, rendono le imbarcazioni Aurea una sintesi perfetta in un prodotto di eccellenza. Il cantiere ha presentato la prima imbarcazione durante Il salone di Cannes a settembre 2017 ed è subito stata notata dal grande pubblico, vincendo inaspettatamente il secondo premio come barca più elegante del 2017. Durante il Salone di Genova 2017 invece, la Rai ha voluto fare un servizio di prova dedicato, riconoscendola come una delle novità più rilevanti degli ultimi anni, in tutto il panorama nautico, facendo anche un servizio dedicato sul tg1 motori. Il cantiere è guidato dall’ingegnere Daniele Rizzo, noto progettista di imbarcazioni da diporto per diversi cantieri, che ha deciso di creare qualcosa di completamente nuovo. Già in costruzione, la versione Open che porta a 18 le sedute comode, con una fruibilità degli spazi anomala per queste dimensioni. Infine è già avviata la costruzione del 38’, che sarà l’ammiraglia del cantiere, che con i suoi 11,6 m di lunghezza e 4,6 m di larghezza, sarà uno dei natanti più grandi in commercio. Con tutti i vantaggi del 30’ ma con ancora più spazio da vivere in pieno confort. Brand Positioning Statement Aurea Yachts is the first Italian builder specializing in the construction of luxury motor catamarans. Attention to every single detail, quality in construction and careful selection of components, make our boats the best alternative to common monohulls. More style, more space, more stability and more safety. _______________________________________ Aurea Yachts is one of the most interesting innovations in the European nautical panorama, it has in fact created a new concept for experiencing the sea. It is the first shipyard in Europe to have created a catamaran (vessel) designed exclusively for pleasure craft. Aurea Yachts offers the first motor catamaran with smaller external dimensions than a dinghy (overall width 3.00 m), but with all the advantages of a catamaran. So lower consumption, better performance, much more livable space on board, but above all great stability, both at sea and at anchor. The numbers are enviable for single hulls, based on the engine, the speed exceeds 50 knots, and the range is 425 miles (680 liters of fuel, 40 l / h at 25 knots, 17 hours of navigation). The blanket has a very attractive and modern design, with simple and elegant lines. On board there is all the space you need for a weekend in full comfort, with the largest bathroom in its category, a double cabin with wardrobe and dinette, a full kitchen and plenty of sunbathing space. Aurea 30 cabin is the only boat in the world of this size to have category A certification (therefore without navigation limits) for 20 people. Construction in vacuum infusion, careful selection of the best on-board systems, and rationalization of every aspect on board, make Aurea boats a perfect synthesis in a product of excellence.

Sailing in Croatia with Ladies from Jamaica: A Journey of Sun, Sea, and Sisterhood Imagine the sun dipping low into the Adriatic Sea, its golden rays dancing on the water as a sailboat glides between Croatia's idyllic islands. Now picture a group of Jamaican women, full of energy and joy, navigating these stunning blue waters. This is not your typical sailing trip—it's a fusion of culture, adventure, and the undeniable magic of the sea. The Perfect Blend: Caribbean Vibes Meets Adriatic Beauty Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast is known for its breathtaking scenery—historic towns like Dubrovnik and Split, pristine beaches, and hidden coves that feel like personal retreats. But what happens when the vibrant spirit of the Caribbean meets the calm, tranquil waters of the Adriatic? From the moment our boat left the marina, the ladies from Jamaica brought their infectious energy. The rhythm of reggae filled the air, blending perfectly with the sound of the waves. Laughter was constant, the conversations rich with stories from Jamaica’s sun-kissed shores. Sailing through Croatia became more than just a travel experience—it became a celebration of cultural exchange. Island Hopping: Adventure with a Dash of Relaxation Croatia boasts over a thousand islands, and each one is unique in its beauty and charm. Our journey started in Split, a bustling port city with ancient Roman roots. From there, we sailed to the famous island of Hvar, known for its chic vibe and crystal-clear waters. The ladies, true to their Caribbean roots, were immediately drawn to the island’s vibrant nightlife, where we danced to both reggae beats and local Croatian tunes under the stars. Next, we visited the quieter island of Vis, where untouched nature and hidden beaches welcomed us. While some of us took to snorkeling and discovering the underwater wonders, others relaxed on the deck with rum cocktails in hand—an ode to Jamaica’s signature spirit. The island of Korčula, often called "Little Dubrovnik," brought out the history buffs in us. As we explored its medieval walls and winding streets, we couldn't help but draw parallels to the fortresses of Port Royal back in Jamaica. Both islands hold deep historical significance, making the connection between our two worlds even stronger. Food and Flavor: A Culinary Fusion One of the highlights of the trip was the food. Croatia's Mediterranean-inspired cuisine, with fresh seafood and olive oil-drizzled dishes, paired beautifully with the bold flavors we brought from Jamaica. On the boat, we cooked up a storm—grilled fish marinated in jerk seasoning, served with a side of Croatian peka (a slow-cooked dish). The flavors of the Adriatic sea met the spices of the Caribbean in a delicious fusion, and we shared meals that felt like a bridge between our homes. In the coastal town of Ston, famous for its oysters, we indulged in freshly harvested seafood, while reminiscing about the rich flavors of Jamaican ackee and saltfish. The shared love for food brought us closer, as we exchanged recipes and stories, all while enjoying the stunning backdrop of the Adriatic. The Power of Sisterhood on the Sea Sailing with the ladies from Jamaica was more than just a fun trip—it was an empowering experience. There’s something about being out at sea, the wind in your hair and the sun on your skin, that makes you feel free and alive. Whether we were learning how to navigate the boat or simply lounging on deck, the sense of camaraderie was palpable. We laughed through challenges, like trying to figure out how to anchor in a busy harbor or dealing with the unpredictable Croatian winds. But more importantly, we supported one another, whether it was cheering each other on during snorkeling adventures or lending a hand when someone needed help navigating the ropes. The beauty of sailing is that it’s as much about the journey as it is about the destination. And with this group of dynamic Jamaican women, every moment was a celebration of friendship, resilience, and the sheer joy of living life to the fullest. A Lasting Connection As the trip came to an end, and we returned to the bustling port of Split, we realized that this journey was more than just a sailing adventure. It was about creating memories, building bonds, and discovering the world through each other’s eyes. The Adriatic Sea had become a place of connection—between islands, cultures, and most importantly, between us. Croatia’s calm, picturesque waters had welcomed the vibrant energy of Jamaica, and together, we created a story that will live on in our hearts. Would we sail again together? Absolutely. Because this journey wasn’t just about the places we visited; it was about the people we shared it with. Conclusion Sailing in Croatia with ladies from Jamaica turned out to be a perfect blend of adventure, culture, and sisterhood. The blend of Caribbean energy with the serenity of the Adriatic Sea was pure magic.
