In addition, the yacht’s indoor and outdoor areas are seamlessly connected thanks to her full-height windows and Baglietto’s signature “cut-out” bulwarks, which strengthen connection to the sea.On her upper deck, a veranda that opens on three sides hosts a panoramic dining room, while her foredeck features a lounge area, sunpads and a Jacuzzi located at the bow.

Lacquered surfaces, experimental woods such as burnt oak, and artistic lighting all harmoniously contribute to her contemporary design profile. Lightweight materials were favoured over heavier marble and natural stone to support the yacht's high-performance credentials, with even the exterior handrails crafted from titanium to optimise weight.Unlike many of the shipyard’s earlier fast yachts, the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/13932" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto Fast 50/0149.9m (163'9&quot;)Baglietto S.p.A.2026">FAST50 yacht</a> has been developed across three full decks, featuring a wide-body owner's suite on the main deck.&nbsp;At an interior volume of 499 GT, accommodation onboard is arranged across four staterooms, including two VIP staterooms and two twin staterooms on the lower deck, all with en-suite facilities. Crew accommodation comprises four dedicated quarters, captain's quarters and a spacious crew mess.In terms of performance, the yacht is powered by four <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/1409" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="MTU (Company)">MTU</a> engines, which are expected to deliver a top speed of 30 knots.&nbsp;

According to the designers, the concept was conceived as a purpose-built world cruise cruiser capable of supporting extended voyages while accommodating a range of owner lifestyles.A key feature of the project is the availability of three distinct configurations built on a common platform.The Fisherman version is focused on a generous open aft deck designed to accommodate a substantial tender and a selection of water toys, without needing a dedicated chase boat.

Yet according to Maite Murillo Galimany, Commercial Executive at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>, the nickname extends far beyond the vessels themselves. "We call <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> ‘Home of Giants’ due to the big size of the superyachts we host in Tarragona," Maite explains. "I would add that it’s the ‘Home of Giants’ as well for the professional team you find there including the companies set in the marina."Having recently celebrated her tenth anniversary at the marina, Maite has witnessed first-hand the transformation of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> from a relatively quiet facility into one of the Mediterranean's most established technical yachting hubs.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396338/image/large-fca205e48cc33ba9ee3fc59247f69023.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396338">A decade of growthMaite joined <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> after working in the hospitality industry for numerous years. Eager for a new challenge, joining <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> “felt like I was in the right place at the right moment; I usually remind my colleagues how lucky we are to work in such an industry.”&nbsp;Looking back at the last decade, it has been an exchange of experience: where Maite has brought in a lot of knowledge and know-how from the hospitality sector, as well as a fresh perspective, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> has, in turn, taught her almost everything she knows about yachting.&nbsp;During her time at the port, Maite has experienced many changes and developments “when I first started, the marina was a very different operation; much more quiet. Then we would be happy if we had all 20 berths full.” There would be time for her to get to know crew members and learn about the industry’s unique demands. For the past three years, during the high season, the 32 berths are constantly busy and it’s never quiet in the port - there is always something to do, someone to help, or a next event to organise.&nbsp;As <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> continues to grow, the challenge lies not only in meeting the increased operational demands, but also in preserving the company culture. Maite emphasises how “growth should enhance our service; it should never diminish the human connection that sits at the core of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>.” It is precisely that view that makes <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> not just a well-functioning marina, but makes it a pleasant port to berth: there is attention to detail, service that includes empathy, and always that personal touch. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396341/image/large-9c8de7b3c0dc25537ef0e8138716f5dd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396341">A human-first approachDespite the busyness of the port, Maite ensures she and her team are always available for those whose paths traverse through <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>. “I have always kept my sense of empathy towards others,” Maite shares, “we are working for people that are far away from home and their loved ones for months. Being conscious of the human side of the industry is the key to succeeding not just in this role, but as a marina."That philosophy remains central to <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>'s approach today. While the marina is renowned for its technical capabilities and infrastructure, the team places equal importance on creating an environment where crew, captains, contractors and guests feel welcomed and supported. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/64707/image/large-1ed133346042b25c7f81bc037d60865e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/64707">Maite is like the fairy godmother of the port, referring to it as “a factory of dreams coming true.” Vessels and crew that visit the port tend to be there for weeks or months at a time so the goal is to make them feel as comfortable as possible, to provide a sense of home. For Maite and her team that means helping with any type of request that they may receive. “Sometimes it’s helping someone book accommodation, sometimes it’s finding second-hand golf clubs or taking someone to the doctor. Other times it is nothing more than going for a walk with someone who just needs a listening ear.”Sometimes the requests are more technical, like finding a last-minute berthing spot for a superyacht when the marina is technically already fully booked. “Making things like that happen makes you feel fulfilled," Maite shares, “it’s a really, really good feeling.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396337/image/large-52265a745d7405de83cbd61a1434cb4b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396337">Entering the&nbsp;<a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6623" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocibar (Company)">Ocibar</a>&nbsp;eraIn 2020, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6623" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocibar (Company)">Group Ocibar</a> took over management of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>. Since then, the marina has grown exponentially, with an emphasis on creating quality experience for guests and employees alike. “There has been a huge change in <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>’s development when <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6623" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocibar (Company)">Ocibar</a> took over marina management,” Maite says. “The company projects both commercially and on the staff structure were a game changer.”The impact has been visible throughout the marina, which is constantly busy, seeing most of the 32 berths occupied, as well as facilities being expanded and improved and the reputation of the marina within the superyacht community has strengthened. “We’ll have captains who are eager to return and make a quick call to reserve a berth. But we also get a lot of superyachts via referrals, like a captain who recommends <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> to another captain.”&nbsp;Another important element of the marina is her security. With 24-hour surveillance and glass walls surrounding the entire premise, guests can feel safe and secure, as well as controlled dock access. While Maite finds that the port “has the perfect package,” the most important element of the work lies in the human element: “by being nice, providing good treatment and service to the boats, both in a technical and personal way.” <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396339/image/large-4fe39a4f831012eebfd1a87fd3917c28.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396339">Enabling growthAs <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> continues to grow, maintaining a balance between innovation and experience remains a priority. “New and fresh ideas are always on the table but experience is the base that took us where we are,” shares Maite, “so we try to strike a balance between the two.” Commercial assistant Laia Vidaller, who only recently joined the industry, highlights how working in yachting has been “dynamic and unique, every day, I get to see different parts of the industry.”The philosophy extends across the entire team. Different personalities, backgrounds and generations bring varying perspectives, but everyone shares the same objective: continuously improving the marina and the service delivered to its clients. “Nani [the Sales Business Manager at <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6623" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocibar (Company)">Ocibar</a>] is always running, he’s always one step ahead and has such a brilliant mind, this way of working has inspired me a lot,” shares Maite. While there are sometimes differences across departments, generations, or people, the overall goal is to create an environment that values the systems in place whilst looking towards innovative ideas to keep bettering the port. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/64712/image/large-3c9c102b9b04027c2f309de64732d9ef.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/64712">One such way in which the port is innovating, is by focusing its attention to greener projects. With a shift in the yachting industry towards a next generation of owners, who tend to be younger and more focused on eco-friendly and eco-forward innovations, the port is happily joining this movement. "The growth of both the industry and the marina is already moving at high speed when caring about the environment," says Maite. "We can clearly see a huge commitment from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/6623" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Ocibar (Company)">Ocibar</a>."“We’ve placed solar panels on all the buildings in the port, helping us with lighting across the facilities and along the docks,” shares Maite. Another project, which has been in place since 2023, is the water bubble barrier, which works to prevent rubbish from getting into the marina. “We are focused on keeping the marina eco-friendly and safe, but simultaneously we are also introducing two other projects that help keep the water surface in the marina as clean as possible.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/396340/image/large-154331418f761509495fc13f2bd5694d.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/396340">When looking towards the future of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>, one thing seems very clear: it’s centred on the people. While there is always an exciting new development in <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> and no day is the same, it is the people that make it all happen. “I still see this industry as a factory of dreams coming true,” Maite shares. Watching <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> grow and welcoming more yachts from around the world is a challenge that keeps me excited.”&nbsp;Having developed into one of the most established technical yachting hubs in the Western Mediterranean, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a> continues to grow and push itself in what it can achieve and provide for both its visitors and its team members. Working across generations and varying levels of expertise, the port relies on existing structure and knowledge, as well as continuously welcoming fresh ideas and innovations. Maite notes how "the never-ending momentum of the yachting industry and the commitment of the company to its growth and people, it’s a reality that should make anyone excited about working in a place such as <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2818" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Port Tarraco (Company)">Port Tarraco</a>."
