It has been over a year since <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a>, a distinguished marine inspection, certification and engineering consultancy company, unveiled their latest yachting brand, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima, at the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Event/122" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Monaco Yacht Show - 2022">Monaco Yacht Show</a> in 2022. It caters to clients with custom superyachts made of steel or aluminium, typically over 40m in length. The introduction of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima serves a dual purpose: addressing the evolving regulatory landscape and embracing emerging technologies and innovations. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a>'s commitment is to provide comprehensive support, offering a 360-degree approach that spans beyond certification, extending to invaluable consultancy services.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/294066/image/large-4a8e39f94bd21884e32dde1d67b779fa.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/294066"><a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">SuperYacht Times</a> spoke with Fiorenzo Spadoni, the Senior Director of the Marine North Europe Region on the solutions offered by <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima, as well as the evolution of this service since its launch.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima is built on five key pillars, each addressing a specific challenge within yacht design, construction and operation:1. Specialised team with the highest of qualifications <a href="#managed-by-system" title="RINA (Company)" data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"></a><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima employs dedicated personnel, including technicians and surveyors, who exclusively focus on the yachting industry, rather than other types of ships. This specialisation enables <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> to enhance their colleagues' expertise, expanding their knowledge of various yacht codes and fostering stronger relationships with major flag administrations, such as the Cayman Islands, Malta, and the Marshall Islands.Mr. Spadoni highlighted a recent initiative, stating, “A few weeks ago, we launched a workshop in Northern Europe, bringing together representatives from the Cayman Islands and our technicians and surveyors. This collaborative effort facilitated the exchange of experiences and knowledge, with a particular emphasis on practical application of yacht code. This initiative that will be replicated in different parts of the world and with different Flags as well, will provide valuable insights, promoting integration and networking between <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> and the flag authorities, ultimately enhancing the services we offer to shipyards.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/294065/image/large-e40e4b871a7c438487901826b415b675.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/294065">2. Digitalisation&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima's second pillar, Digitalization, introduces a powerful tool known as <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Sertica. This tool benefits yacht management companies, captains, and shipyards. The suite offers various valuable functionalities. For shipyards, it provides a means to effectively handle the yacht's warranty period and after-sales service. Meanwhile, management companies can use it for streamlined yacht management.One of the key features is the ability to implement a Planned Maintenance System (PMS) onboard. Instead of relying on periodic visits, this system ensures equipment is inspected based on manufacturer specifications. For instance, if a manufacturer recommends inspecting certain equipment after a specific number of hours of operation, the PMS schedules maintenance accordingly. This is achieved through software that collects equipment information and creates a maintenance schedule for the yacht.Additionally, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Sertica allows for the creation of a 'digital twin' of the yacht. This digital replica captures every modification and detail throughout the yacht's life. It stores not only geometrical information and 3D models but also manufacturer details, technical data, and material specifications. The aim is to centralise all critical information in one place, ensuring it remains accessible throughout the yacht's entire lifecycle.3. Core services for safety, comfort and security<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima’s third pillar focuses on core services that enhance safety, comfort, and security, offering added value to yachts of certain sizes. This includes specialised services in noise and vibration prediction, consultancy, and onboard assessment.With <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Marine Consulting, a detailed model of the yacht is created to accurately predict the noise and vibration levels on board with exceptional precision. Subsequently, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> services team can visit the yacht to measure the actual noise and vibration levels when required by the client. Based on these measurements, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> can issue an additional class certification to acknowledge compliance with established noise and vibration standards. Moreover, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> is also well- equipped to address specific noise and vibration issues that occur at particular speeds, providing a proposed solution. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a>’s state-of-the-art instruments include a camera that can pinpoint the source of noise and amplify the vibration displacement, enabling precise and swift problem resolution.&nbsp;Furthermore, as yachts become increasingly digital, they face greater exposure to cybersecurity threats. Recognizing this, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> has the capability to perform cybersecurity assessments, vulnerability assessments, and even employ ethical hackers to identify network weaknesses. If vulnerabilities are identified, they propose solutions to enhance network security. This can be conducted at various stages of construction, following a secure-by-design approach, or after the entire structure is in place. Cybersecurity assessments are becoming more critical in the evolving landscape of yacht technology.4. Decarbonisation and Sustainability&nbsp;Another vital pillar of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima is centred around decarbonization and sustainability. This involves a strong commitment to building and operating greener yachts, focusing on both efficiency and the adoption of alternative fuels. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> brings substantial expertise in alternative fuels to the table. This expertise extends to a range of options such as hydrogen and methanol. Their knowledge in these areas doesn't just stem from the yachting industry but also draws from various sectors, particularly energy, where they worked extensively on sustainability and decarbonisation of the sector.One noteworthy example is the use of methanol, which is gaining prominence in yachting for decarbonisation efforts. Methanol, when produced from renewable energy sources, is considered a "green" fuel. When used in internal combustion engines, it can significantly reduce or even eliminate emissions, making it an attractive option. Additionally, fuel cells, powered by methanol, offer another avenue. Methanol can be reformed to produce hydrogen, which is then fed into the fuel cell. This approach eliminates the need to store hydrogen on board, which can be challenging and potentially hazardous.HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) is a solution that's gaining traction in the yachting sector. What's particularly appealing is that most engine manufacturers provide full authorisation to use this fuel without requiring any modifications. Additionally, when HVO is produced from biofuels, it offers an environmentally friendly solution. Biofuels like HVO reduce the CO2 emissions by up to 90 percent when considering the entire lifecycle, making them a highly sustainable choice.Moreover, biofuels, particularly HVO, offer unique advantages in the yachting sector. Firstly, HVO is virtually odourless and produces minimal particulates, eliminating the issue of smoke that can soil the yacht's hull. This results in reduced cleaning requirements, making it a popular choice among captains and yacht owners. While HVO may be somewhat more expensive than traditional fuels, it's a feasible investment in the yachting industry, where owners are more often keen to prioritise sustainability even if it comes at a higher cost.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> recognizes the potential of HVO and has introduced an additional class notation called "biofuel &nbsp;yacht." Furthermore, “we've formed a strategic partnership with ENI, a prominent fuel company in Italy, to collaborate on projects involving the use of HVO. This partnership demonstrates our commitment to alternative fuels and sustainability.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a>'s expertise extends beyond environmental considerations; it also encompasses social aspects of sustainability. We offer a sustainability yacht notation that addresses both environmental and social aspects. This notation spans various additional class notations, from the "green plus" focusing on environmental concerns to the "comfort class" emphasising onboard well-being. Also "MLC 2006" voluntary compliance is taken into account, which pertains to the working condition of the crew on board&nbsp;Additionally, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> has introduced a carbon index that evaluates the operational impact of yachts, measuring how much fuel and emissions savings occur year after year. This notation is goal-based, requiring specific ratings in various categories to achieve the "sustainable yacht" notation. (Yachts that have this notation include the 69-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1661" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Tankoa Yachts S.p.A. (Company)">Tankoa</a> superyacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/2852" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Suerte69.0m (226'5&quot;)Tankoa Yachts S.p.A.2015">Suerte</a> and the 63-metre <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1080" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Rossinavi (Company)">Rossinavi</a> yacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/5696" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Utopia IV63.0m (206'8&quot;)Rossinavi2018">Utopia IV</a>).&nbsp;5. Shared Platform Ship Model Approval&nbsp;This last pillar is particularly relevant to the superyacht market, and offers a more efficient and cost-effective way to approve yachts.Traditionally, the process involved creating drawings, submitting them to the classification society (class), receiving remarks or notes from the class, and then engaging in a back-and-forth exchange with the designer to address these remarks. This process was time-consuming and often expensive.However, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> has adopted a new, digital platform where <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> technicians and designers can collaborate in real-time on the drawings, &nbsp;or even directly on the 3D model of the yacht. With this approach, the model is approved, when it meets all the rules and requirements, eliminating the need for subsequent remarks or modifications.Spadoni affirms that “Our goal is to prevent any deviations from the rules being more efficient. Additionally, having the 3D model in place opens up new possibilities, such as creating a digital twin for various purposes, including conducting analyses related to noise, vibration, CFD and structural aspects. We understand that transitioning to this new way of approval may not always be straightforward, as some designers are more accustomed to working with traditional 2D drawings. However, our platform is adaptable and accommodates both 2D drawings and 3D models. The primary focus is on real-time collaboration with our technicians, which significantly streamlines the approval process, saving both time and resources”.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima is continuously evolving and expanding its services to meet the changing needs of the industry. Among the newest additions being developed is a classification known as Comf Stab, short for Comfort Stabiliser. This specific classification is designed to thoroughly evaluate the performance of the Fin Stabiliser system, ensuring that it meets the highest standards of comfort and stabilisation.The evaluation process involves conducting Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses, which are rigorously validated. During Sea trials, the onboard stabilisation system's performance is thoroughly examined. The notation will become an integral part of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima suite of services.<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> Maxima is dedicated to staying at the forefront of industry transformation and innovation. <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1457" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="RINA (Company)">RINA</a> is more than just a classification society that checks completed projects; they actively participate in the realisation of projects and work to enable innovation within the industry.
