A larger network goes on the road
Marina amenities, reservations and digital access can materially shape an owner’s itinerary. D-Marin is taking its existing network and service proposition to the autumn boat-show circuit. D-Marin is presenting its expanded portfolio of 28 marinas across nine countries during the 2026 autumn boat-show season. The group attended Cannes Yachting Festival and is due at the Genoa International Boat Show from 1 to 6 October, using both events to demonstrate its digital services and destination network.
The announcement follows additions in Sardinia and continued expansion around the Mediterranean and Gulf. It is primarily a customer and industry outreach programme rather than the opening of another marina.
The app brings several marina functions together
D-Marin says its app allows customers to search for a marina, request or book a berth, manage services and monitor information from connected equipment. Smart Sensor technology and smart pedestals can also show boat status and utility consumption where those systems are installed.
Digital control can make routine marina administration easier for captains and owners, but capability can vary by location and berth. Critical operational arrangements should still be confirmed with the local marina team.
Shows provide a place to compare routes and destinations
Regional staff are using interactive displays to help visitors explore cruising routes and match yacht requirements with individual marinas. D-Marin also offers consultations and follow-up quotations based on visitor enquiries rather than limiting the stand to brochures.
The group reports more than 14,300 berths across its portfolio, including dedicated superyacht berths, and more than 50,000 customers annually. Those are company-reported network figures and do not indicate that every site can accommodate the same yacht size.
Hospitality and technology are being presented together
D-Marin's current strategy combines shoreside hospitality with connected systems intended to reduce administrative friction around a berth. For superyacht crews, the useful measure will be whether those systems translate into quicker service and better visibility during an actual stay.
The official company release provides the show dates, network figures and specific campaign image. Luxury Yacht Guide has linked D-Marin's existing company record and has not treated the two show appearances as separate news stories. The official announcement supplies the stated details and the subject-specific image. Luxury Yacht Guide readers should check availability, specification and booking arrangements directly with the provider before relying on them.
