YACHT CHARTER PORTO CERVO: THE EXCLUSIVITY OF COSTA SMERALDA

Porto cervo is the symbol of the exclusive costa smeralda in gallura, the northernmost coastal region of sardinia. the town's name, porto cervo (deer harbor), refers to its deer-shaped natural harbour morphology. approaching sardinia on a luxury porto cervo yacht charter fills the eye with beauty as nature blends harmonically with the elegant villas and resorts disseminated on its territory..

Porto Cervo’s beating heart is its famous Piazzetta, surrounded by elegant shops, the ateliers of the leading international luxury brands, and plush cafés. Premium clubs rule the nightlife of this lovely town to hit on a Porto Cervo yacht charter .

To the south of Costa Smeralda is Cala di Volpe, a natural bay protected from the winds that are a perfect spot to visit during your luxury yacht charter in Porto Cervo , boasting a sandy seabed, transparent waters, and the fragrant scent of the Mediterranean vegetation.

Travellers seeking tranquillity and leisure on their Porto Cervo yacht rental cannot but adore Baia Romazzino, a picturesque stretch of pink-coloured sand nestled among elegant villas. You can stay at the hotel by the same name, which, with Romazzino and Pitrizza, is in the top tier of Costa Smeralda’s best resorts.

A Porto Cervo yacht charter, the perfect destination for sailing and golf enthusiasts

While the unique charm of Porto Cervo’s regattas attracts sailing fans, golf enthusiasts will find an exclusive 18-hole course at Pevero Golf Club that owes its other name, “Golf Dei Due Golfi” (Two Gulfs Golf), to its view of the bays of Pevero and Cala di Volpe – a truly unique sight!

IN THE PARIOLI DISTRICT

The new restaurant

Johnny’s name is now known all over the world. Johnny Micalusi ai Parioli is the result of a lifetime of opening restaurants worldwide, from Rome to Milan via Barcelona, London, Porto Cervo, Moscow and Circeo.

Johnny Micalusi in Rome

Only restaurants bearing the name Johnny Micalusi can be traced back to me. I have no other business interests or consultancies.

My Rome restaurant, where you’ll find me every day, is at Viale Parioli 103C. There are currently 2 other Johnny Micalusi locations, one in Porto Cervo and one in San Felice Circeo, open exclusively during the summer.

Ever been this close to the sea?

The secret of my success has always been visible to everyone at the entrance to my restaurants: it’s the fish, sourced from Terracina and the other local auctions. Every day, as soon as it arrives, it is displayed at the entrance to the restaurant. Brilliant that only I can find thanks to my 40 years of experience as a fisherman, fishmonger and restaurateur.

“People have to feast first with their eyes. Then with their palate”.

Two private rooms for your exclusive events

To make the experience at Johnny Micalusi even more exclusive, I created two private rooms on the first floor of the restaurant, ideal for any type of occasion, for a business meeting or to celebrate an anniversary.

Exclusive dishes and the freshest ingredients

The Great Seafood Plateau, the Tuna Tartare with potato mash, the Sea Bass Tartare with avocado, the Red Shrimp or Amberjack Carpaccio are just some of the most popular dishes in our restaurant. Each dish is the result of our daily pledge to bring the true taste of the sea to your table.

VESSEL REVIEW | Sinichka – Electric commuter boats designed for Russia’s Moskva River

A series of three new electric monohull commuter ferries have already begun operational sailings on the Moskva River in the Russian capital Moscow.

Built by Russian shipyard Emperium, sister vessels Sinichka , Filka , and Presnya – all named after rivers in Moscow – are being operated by the Moscow Department of Transport and Road Infrastructure Development (Moscow Deptrans). They are the first units of a planned fleet of 20 vessels that will serve the capital city and other nearby communities. The new ferry system will be the water transport system to be operated on the Moskva River in 16 years.

Each vessel has a welded aluminium hull, an LOA of 21 metres, a beam of 6.2 metres, a draught of only 1.4 metres, a displacement of 40 tonnes, and capacity for 80 passengers plus two crewmembers. Seating is available for 42 passengers on each ferry, and the main cabins are also fitted with USB charging ports, wifi connectivity, tables, toilets, and space for bicycles and scooters. The cabin layout can be rearranged to allow the operator to adjust the distances between the seats and to install armrests of varying widths.

An open upper deck is also accessible to passengers and is the only area on each ferry where smoking is allowed.

The ferries are all of modular construction with each ferry's wheelhouse, main cabin, and other structural elements being built as complete, separate components. This enables the ferries to be easily dismantled for transport to anywhere in Russia by rail and then quickly re-assembled within seven days.

The ferries are also ice-capable. Recently completed operational trials on the Moskva showed that the vessels can also easily navigate under mild winter conditions with broken surface ice, though year-round operations are planned for the entire fleet.

The ferries are each fitted with 500kWh lithium iron phosphate battery packs that supply power to two 134kW motors. This configuration can deliver a maximum speed of 11.8 knots, a cruising speed of just under 10 knots, and a range of 150 kilometres.

Emperium said the transfer of rotation of electric motors to the propeller is carried out by direct drive. As a propulsion installation, a pulling rotary propeller-steering column with double screws is used. The installation of double pulling screws, with similar power, allows an operator to increase the efficiency of the propulsion system to deliver a slightly higher speed or to reduce energy consumption. This arrangement also provides the ferries with enhanced manoeuvrability necessary for navigating in close quarters.

The batteries themselves have projected service lives of 10 to 12 years and are fitted with safety features such as built-in fire extinguishers and gas vents. Quick-disconnect features allow the batteries to be easily removed for replacement or maintenance.

Some of our readers have expressed disquiet at our publication of reviews and articles describing new vessels from Russia. We at Baird Maritime can understand and sympathise with those views. However, despite the behaviour of the country's leaders, we believe that the maritime world needs to learn of the latest developments in vessel design and construction there.
