RODRIQUEZ YACHTS BRINGS LUXURIOUS, ITALIAN STYLE TO U.S. MARKET

Coral Gables, FL - July 11, 2006 -The Rodriquez 600 Sport Silver Edition will now be available in SharedYachts' fractional-ownership and lease-back programs. Rodriquez Yachts, a leading European luxury yacht manufacturer, recently launched sales in the U.S. market through an exclusive partnership with South Florida-based BRB Yachts. Rodriquez Yachts is an award-winning shipyard that will bring advanced military technology and stylish, Italian design to American waters.

"BRB Yachts is pleased to announce this partnership with SharedYachts that will allow people with the knowledge and interest-not just the money-a chance to enjoy world-class yachting for at least a portion of the year," said Daniel Berrebi, the owner and president of BRB Yachts.

The Rodriquez 600 Sport Silver Edition, normally an investment starting at $1.5 million, can be purchased for a portion of the price through SharedYachts' fractional-ownership program, granting access to the yacht for 12 weeks out of the year. SharedYachts can also help yacht owners generate the income to pay the yachting expenses by placing the yacht in the lease-back program. In addition, the financial burden of upkeep and maintenance is diminished.

Crafted from reinforced fiberglass in eye-catching silver, the Rodriquez 600 Sport Silver Edition is a standout vessel powered by two 800hp diesel engines that will easily take the yacht to a smooth 35 knots. The 600 Sport is characterized by four cabins, two large sunbathing areas, spacious dining areas, a flat screen television, DVD player, surround sound stereo system and complete onboard instrumentation.

"The Rodriquez 600 Sport Silver Edition is the first Italian yacht in our exclusive fleet," said SharedYachts CEO Mark Casburn. "The synergies available at Rodriquez and the line's design philosophies match the SharedYachts' approach to quality customer service while maintaining a fleet of the yachting industry's crème of the crop."

SharedYachts' is a young, burgeoning company on a mission to provide the best yacht management and ownership programs available in the yachting industry. The company's strategic vision includes an operations center to coordinate, track and maintain the yachts in its growing fleet while providing customers with an array of services tailored for nautical fun.

The Rodriquez 600 Sport Silver Edition is one of several Rodriquez yachts available in the U.S. market through BRB Yachts. Rodriquez yachts range from 50 to 220 feet, and the models available to American consumers are the 500 Sport, 600 Sport, 600 Widebody, 800 Widebody and 800 Sport, which are customizable to suit the needs of each yachtsman. Some of the high-tech solutions available on a Rodriquez yacht include a retractable top, touch screen controls and user friendly instrumentation, on-board monitoring, control and stabilization equipment (including the patented intruder system), engine room camera, a specially designed hull for skimming at low speeds and fuel efficiency.
