The new version of the MYBA Memorandum of Agreement

myba yacht association

Let’s look at the key points of the new version of the MYBA Memorandum of Agreement – Part One

by Federico Santini*

The Myba Memorandum of Agreement (also known as the Moa ) is a contract form approved by Myba (Mediterranean Yacht Brokers Association) and most commonly used internationally for the sale and purchase of used yachts . It is a standard contract governed by English law, which consists of a first part, corresponding to the first two pages, to be filled in with the description of the yacht and the specific conditions of sale that are the result of negotiations between the parties, and a second part consisting of standard clauses governing the Seller’s rights and obligations, and finally the general conditions of the sale. Having been widely used and respected by brokers and lawyers for many years, the Moa has been an essential instrument in the buying and selling used yachts.

MYBA

THE MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT HAS FOR MANY YEARS BEEN AN ESSENTIAL INSTRUMENT IN THE BUYING AND SELLING OF USED YACHTS.

Not everyone knows, however, that a new version of the Moa was launched in 2021. It is an update of the model that has been used since 2008 with the aim, on the one hand, to bring it more in line with current market practices and with changes in regulations and, on the other hand, to prevent a number of contractual aspects that are in practice susceptible to disputes between the parties. However, almost two years after the introduction of the E-Moa 2021, the previous version of the contract is still predominantly used, and this is undoubtedly due to the fact that the new version is electronic and can only be completed and used by brokers registered with the Myba. Therefore at least for the time being, brokers who are not members of the association and, above all, lawyers who normally assist the parties in drafting the Moa and its addenda are, at least for now, excluded from accessing this document.

The decision not to allow lawyers to prepare the contract directly and to be able to exchange the drafts prior to signing, except with the broker’s constant intervention on the text, inevitably represents a major obstacle to the dissemination of the new version and the application in the practice of the changes introduced . Therefore, it is hoped that the Myba will approve a widening of the audience of users who can have access to the E-Moa 2021, certainly by adding lawyers active in the yachting sector. This requirement has been expressed several times by many of the most established international law firms and is certainly to be welcomed since the changes made are undoubtedly useful and opportune in the light of the experience and market practice. We therefore begin our examination of these changes which we will continue in the next issue.

MYBA

A first amendment, and also the most significant, concerns Clause 15 (Seller’s Warranty) which has been extended in two respects , compared to the previous version which only provided for the warranty regarding the Seller’s ownership of the yacht and the absence of mortgages, debts and claims over the yacht. On the one hand, a specific guarantee has been inserted regarding the absence of liability for the payment of Vat on the yacht until the date of completion of the sale in relation to the Vat status of the yacht which, in fact, must be declared in the new box (L) Eu Vat Status, introduced on the first page of the Moa . On the other hand, a specific guarantee has been inserted regarding the absence of debts and/or liabilities deriving from previous charter contracts operating in the case of commercial yachts, which in fact must now be declared in the new box (K) Plesure or Commercial Yacht, introduced on the first page of the Moa .

Of particular importance is the introduction of the Vat guarantee, as this is an absolute change in perspective with obvious consequences in terms of liability . In fact, under the previous regime, the seller did not provide any guarantee and the buyer had the burden of verifying the seller’s correct application of Eu Vat law before signing the Moa and/or completing the sale, with no recourse against the seller in the event of subsequent disputes by the tax authorities. We will continue our analysis of the changes introduced in the Moa in the next issues.

What you Need to Know about MYBA and MYBA Contracts

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of a luxury yacht charter? Probably sun, sea, incredible food, fun, and relaxation, right? And you’d be correct (that and so much more)! Terms and contracts don’t really fit in this picture. However, to get to the fun and relaxation, there is a little paperwork that needs to happen.

One of our core values at Otium Yachts is TRUST , so we try to make everything as simple and transparent as possible. We want you to feel confident in us as your broker and fully informed about the process and details so there are no surprises at sea. That is why we decided to write this blog specifically about MYBA contracts, to explain what they are, and why this is our preferred contract to use with clients.

What is MYBA?

The Mediterranean Yacht Brokers Association (MYBA) is a worldwide yachting association that was founded in 1984 by a group of yacht brokers whose goal was to promote the highest standards of professionalism and ethics in the yachting industry and to set a standard for charter agreements.

MYBA created the industry’s most respected and widely used contracts – the MYBA Sales and Purchase Agreement (MoA) and the MYBA Charter Agreement . These documents are regularly updated to ensure they stay in sync with the ever-changing needs of the global yachting market. With these contracts, clients can enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing these contracts have been prepared to the highest standard by industry professionals, with the client in mind .

Benefits of MYBA Contracts

1. Professional Industry Standard

The MYBA contract is the result of 40 years of experience from pioneers in the yachting industry. Some owners and agencies have their own charter terms and conditions – therefore, their own contracts. However, we prefer to trust something that has been prepared by industry professionals with decades of experience booking yachts around the world.

MYBA contracts are not available to all brokers . To have access to a MYBA contract you need to be an established and experienced broker with a proven record of professional excellence in the yachting industry. Such brokers invest a lot of time, money, and energy traveling to charter shows, inspecting yachts, and meeting the crews, owners, and Central Agents. So, brokers who have access to MYBA contracts typically only work with Central Agents or Stakeholders that they have personally met or reference-checked with their trusted colleagues. All of this benefits the client.

2. MYBA Contracts can still Work with Gulet Terms

As we mentioned in our last blog (Yacht Charter Terms and Agreements Explained), there are two sets of terms under which yachts usually operate and they are quite contrary (operating terms – the terms under which a yacht operates, and lays out what is, or is not included in the charter rate):

  • Western Mediterranean Terms (WMT), also known as “MYBA Terms”

Under WMT (OR MYBA) terms the charter fee includes charter of the yacht and equipment, crew wages and food, ship's laundry , basic operating consumables, and insurance of the yacht for marine risk, third-party claims, and the crew for employer's liability insurance. The charterer will be charged extra  and at a cost to the yacht, for all other expenses. These expenses include food and all beverages for the charter guests, fue l for the yacht and auxiliary craft, dockage , VAT if applicable, taxes , harbor fees , communications , guest laundry , and shore-side electricity and water . 

  • Gulet Terms

Generally speaking, larger luxury crewed charter yachts operate under “MYBA terms” , and smaller standard crewed yachts (gulets) operate under “Gulet terms” . As we explained in our previous blog, different terms suit yachts for different reasons. However, regardless of the terms under which a yacht operates, we can (and prefer to) use MYBA contracts. Under Clause 8 of the MYBA contract, it states what is included in the charter rate and what is extra . However, there is a SPECIAL CONDITIONS section where we can state anything that is contrary between certain terms. For example, under SPECIAL CONDITIONS section we can put “contrary to Clause 8) of this Agreement Charter Price Includes: fuel for 4 h of the engine work daily, fuel for the generator 24/7, fuel for tender transfers to/from the yacht, Wi-Fi, VAT...” and other conditions specific to yachts operating according to the Gulet Terms. Hence, we can make adjustments required by certain terms and still use our favorite type of contract.

3. MYBA Contracts Offer the Best Protection for Clients

The MYBA contract clearly defines all terms related to yacht charter; from delivery, crew, and captain’s authority, to cancellation, breakdown, insurance, and the very important Clause 20 regarding payment of the charter fee. Every possible scenario has been covered ; the MYBA contract offers protection to the client like no other contract. Clause 20 is the essence of the MYBA terms and contracts. It states that all funds received by the broker are immediately transferred to a Stakeholder (if the broker is not the Stakeholder) and then held by the Stakeholder in a designated account – safeguarding the client’s money . Fifty percent of the Charter Fee is paid to the owner of the yacht on the first day of the charter . The APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is also paid to the Captain or the owner prior to embarkation . The remaining 50% of the charter fee is not paid to the owner until the first working day following the successful completion of the charter . If there are any complaints or issues raised, the funds are held until there is a resolution between the parties (with or without arbitration). In short, clients can trust that their money is safeguarded .

MYBA Contracts are our Preferred Contract

For all of these reasons, MYBA contracts are our preferred contract . We hope these two blogs (this blog and Yacht Charter Terms Explained ), help clear up this side of chartering a yacht. As always, contact us if you have any questions, and trust that we will handle your inquiry with care and professionalism from beginning to end. Otium Yachts , we are here for you.

MYBA Celebrates Thirty Years

Boat entering port cropped 140

As MYBA celebrates its 30th anniversary, it can say without reservation that the last decade has been a doozy.

The changing times have challenged the bedrock yachting association on nearly every front. The technological revolution pushed its signature database to the brink. The rapid and unchecked expansion of the market caused friction between established players and newcomers. And that’s to say nothing of the massive haemorrhaging that occurred following the financial crisis.

Throughout, MYBA has fought to maintain its position as the most influential association in the yachting industry.

And it would be hard to argue that it hasn’t.

“As a charter manager, every day, every hour, I use the MYBA charter agreement and I’m always on the YACHTFOLIO database,” says Nicolas Fry, charter manager with Camper & Nicholsons in Monaco. “They are my tools that I use every day, all the time. I go to the MYBA Genoa Charter Show, and that’s the most important show of the year if you want to promote your boats.”

MYBA Charter Show motor and sailing yachts on display

Everything you need to know about the MYBA Charter Show 2024

With the 2024 Mediterranean yachting season on the horizon, the much-anticipated MYBA Charter Show , sponsored by BOAT International, is preparing to return to Marina Molo Vecchio in Genoa, Italy, on 22-25 April. Founded in 1984, 2024 marks a significant milestone for MYBA as the worldwide yachting association celebrates its 40th anniversary. With the show launched in 1990 and managed by MYBA since 2001, the MYBA Charter Show is now in its 34th edition. The renowned trade event is poised to unveil the most sought-after yachts on the charter market to leading charter professionals and serves as a pivotal platform for industry players to connect and strategise ahead of the bustling season. 

BOAT delves into what awaits attendees at this year's show, from the revamped layout and the impressive lineup of superyachts on display to the much-loved annual Superyacht Chefs' Competition.

New year, new layout

This year, the MYBA Charter Show introduces a dynamic new layout aimed at maximising exposure for exhibitors and enhancing the experience for visitors. The redesigned walkways guide attendees through the show, ensuring they can navigate the various offerings without missing a beat. Divided into eight steps, the show boasts amenities catering to every aspect of the charter industry. Additionally, a dedicated bar for relaxation between viewings and a crew lounge, bar and meeting area elevate the experience. The hospitality lounge and seminar rooms further enhance the networking potential of the event, providing ample opportunities for industry professionals to connect and collaborate.

The 2024 show once again promises a series of exclusive events designed to foster connections within the yacht charter community. The festivities kick off with the Captains' Dinner on Sunday 21 April, sponsored by Pesto Sea Group and Catalano Shipping Services, promising an evening of fine dining and socialising. Additionally, there will be a Show Opening Cocktail on Tuesday 23 April, sponsored by Begum Yachting, at the Villa Lo Zerbino. Notably, the Exhibitors' Party is poised to facilitate closer connections among participants, with a more centralised layout at the heart of the exhibiting area.

The coolest charter yachts on display

Ranging from 20 to 100 metres in length, the MYBA Charter Show is set to showcase some of the best charter yachts currently on the market. Amongst the standout vessels, the 97.2-metre, Lürssen -built Carinthia VII is the largest yacht in attendance, represented by Fraser .

Also represented by Fraser is the 82.5-metre, Golden Yachts -built Emir . Additionally, Burgess will proudly represent two of the largest yachts on display - the 85.6-metre, Derecktor -built Aquila and the Freire Shipyard , 73.6-metre Naia . As well as this, attendees can expect the Golden Yachts -built, 77.7-metre Malia , represented by Northrop & Johnson , and the Amels , 76.6-metre Boadicea , represented by Yachting Partners International .

The Superyacht Chefs' Competition

Visitors and crews will be thrilled to know that the beloved annual Superyacht Chefs' Competition will return to the MYBA Charter Show 2024. This year, superyacht chefs are invited to showcase their culinary creativity under the theme of 'An Italian Fusion Dinner Party', paying homage to the show's return to Italy. Tasked with preparing a three-course dinner, chefs are challenged to fuse Italian cuisine with the flavours of another country of their choice.

But the culinary creativity doesn't stop there. In parallel, interior crews will engage in a competition of their own, tasked with crafting a table setting that symbolises the essence of the Italian fusion dinner theme. As an added twist, they must also provide subtle clues to the judges regarding the cuisine of the second country they have chosen to incorporate into the fusion experience.

Registrations open on a first-come, first-served basis, so crews are encouraged to secure their spots early. For detailed guidelines and competition briefs, competition registration or show tickets, visit the MYBA Charter Show 2024 website or contact the team for more information .

By Nina Done   23 June 2023

The Worldwide Yachting Association has announced the MYBA Charter Show is to move back to Genoa, Italy for its 34th Edition next year.

The show, which has been hosted in Barcelona for the last 5 years, will temporarily return to its original location at the historic Marina Molo Vecchio in Genoa for 2024. Under a temporary one-year agreement, the Italian port will serve as an interim solution until a decision can be reached with regard to the show’s future location.  

Marina Molo Vecchio, Genoa

Annually attracting more than 2,000 industry professionals, brokers and influencers, the MYBA Charter Show is a mainstay fixture in the yachting calendar, offering a prime opportunity to get an up-close encounter with some of the most iconic luxury charter yachts  on the market.

Organized by MYBA, the show is a shining example of the association’s dedication to setting, promoting and upholding high standards across all realms of the superyacht industry.

Ignacio Erroz, CEO of Marina Port Vell Barcelona, confirmed that it had “been a pleasure to host the MYBA Charter Show, for five editions, in our facilities,” before adding the show had also helped to reinforce Barcelona as a superyacht destination, as well as boost the local economy and create greater opportunities for the industry as a whole. 

myba yacht association

Meanwhile, Raphael Sauleau, MYBA vice president and AYSAS chairman, expressed their “heartfelt gratitude to the team at Marina Port Vell Barcelona for their dedication and efforts in hosting the MYBA Charter Show over the past years. Under Ignacio Erroz's leadership, the team's passion, professionalism, and commitment to excellence, have made the Shows unique experiences irrespective of the post pandemic challenges.” 

The two marinas are working closely with each other to ensure a smooth transition for all parties involved. 

Dates for the MYBA Charter Show 2024 have yet to be announced. If you're interested in learning more about yachts in Barcelona or want to attend the event, speak to your preferred yacht charter broker today for more details.

History of Novosibirsk Oblast

Over thousands of years, the territory of the Novosibirsk region, due to its location on the border of natural zones and cultural regions (the Siberian taiga and the Eurasian steppe), played the role of a buffer zone or border zone of different peoples.

In the 13th-15th centuries, this land was the eastern outskirts of the Golden Horde. Later, until the end of the 16th century, it was part of the Siberian Khanate. In the 18th century, the territory of the present Novosibirsk region became part of the Russian Empire.

Despite the relatively favorable climate, the Russians began to settle here relatively late. The Barabin Tatars were the indigenous people. Today, their total population is about 10,000 people living mainly in the western parts of the region.

The Barabin Tatars were subjected to constant attacks of the Kalmyks (the Oyrates and Teleuts). Russian villages were also under the threat. That’s why people preferred to settle in the north, near Tomsk. Only at the end of the 17th century, Novosibirsk province became attractive to settlers.

More Historical Facts…

The first settlement was founded by the boyar son Alexey Kruglik in 1695. Later, this settlement became the village of Kruglikovo. Today, it is located in Bolotninsky district. In the early 18th century, Berdsky stockaded town was built. Over time, the threat from the nomads decreased and the number of settlers increased.

In 1722, the Siberian line of fortresses along the Irtysh River was constructed. The locals were mainly engaged in soil tilling, fishing and hunting. In the early 19th century, the famous Ural manufacturer Akinfiy Demidov constructed two copper melting plants here - Kolyvansky and Barnaulsky.

In 1893, due to the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and the railway bridge across the Ob River, Alexandrovsky settlement was built (from 1895 - Novonikolayevsky). Thanks to its convenient geographical location (the Trans-Siberian Railway crossing the Ob River, transportation ways connecting Siberia with the European part of the Russian Empire), its trade importance grew rapidly. In 1909, Novonikolayevsk became a town. In 1925, it was renamed in Novosibirsk.

Before 1921, the territory of Novosibirsk oblast was part of Tomsk gubernia, from 1921 to 1925 - of Novonikolayevsk gubernia, from 1925 to 1930 - of Siberian krai, from 1930 to 1937 - of West Siberian krai. September 28, 1937, West Siberian krai was divided into Novosibirsk oblast and Altay krai. This date is considered the official date of the region formation.

Novosibirsk Oblast - Features

Novosibirsk Oblast is located in the south east of the East-Siberian Plain, in the steppe, forest-steppe and taiga zones, between the Ob and the Irtysh rivers. The length of the region from west to east - 642 km, from north to south - 444 km.

The southern part of Vasyugan swamp, the largest swamp in the world, occupies the territory in the north and north-west of the province. In the southwest, it borders with Pavlodar oblast of Kazakhstan.

There are about 3,000 lakes on the territory of the Novosibirsk region. The largest lakes are Chany, Ubinskoye, Sartlan. Novosibirsk Reservoir also known as “the Ob Sea” (1,082 sq. km.) was created for Novosibirsk Hydroelectric Power Plant.

Novosibirsk is one the largest industrial, transport, scientific, and cultural center of Russia, the third most populous city in the country after Moscow and St. Petersburg. It is also the capital of the Siberian Federal District.

Natural gas and oil fields are located in the north-western part of the region. There are significant reserves of underground thermal and mineral waters. Forests cover about 4 million hectares, more than 20% of the territory.
