RINa takes mega share Class body RINa invests in the yachts of the future.
I
talian society RINa reckons to have classed 40% of the global orderbook for mega yachts, and reports a 200%
growth in its yacht classification services over the last five years. Revenue from yacht services grew over 20% during 2008, reflecting both the increased orderbook and the widening of services to owners, the organisation said. At the end of 2008 RINa had over 1000
yachts, totalling over 160,000gt on its register. Half of these were Italian flag, while a further 25% flew the Red Ensign.
More importantly, over 400 yachts were on order to RINa class. During 2008 yachts were building to
RINa class in Italy, Turkey, China, UK, New Zealand, USA, Germany, Taiwan and The Netherlands. In the last case, RINa has been appointed for the first time by the Jongert shipyard to class a 40m aluminium motor yacht. 10 charter-class yachts between 30m and 60m loa were built in China to RINa class, along with 15 yachts for CE certification. A dedicated Yacht Centre was opened in Istanbul, with

its own plan approval and expert yacht team. Given its large market share, RINa
has continued to develop new services specifically for yachts. In 2008, these included the Secure Yacht Certification, High Quality Boat Certification, Green Star Clean Energy – Clean Propulsion and Layout for Yacht Maintenance. Te class body also launched a new Yacht Academy in 2008, providing courses tailored for yacht crews, masters and yacht building yards on technical matters. NA
