<p>一项期待已久的跨境独立旅行计划将允许来自澳门和香港的游艇轻松驶向大湾区西部约六个指定港口，政策预计最早将在今夏敲定，《南华早报》获悉。一份广东省政府文件显示，推荐了多个适合休闲的航线，如青衣湾水域、珠江三角洲和大屿山海峡的范刘角。根据提案，休闲游艇旅游将被允许在位于香港西南的万山群岛周围水域，以及南部城市的白草湾、南湾、乱石湾和蒲头湾等海湾的小岛上进行。该文件还建议，持有本地许可证的游艇可以获得临时的大陆船舶国籍证书，在指定区域内多次运营，期限为 180 天。提案的指导方针在初始阶段严格限制申请者为持有大陆旅行许可证的香港和澳门居民，排除持有回乡证的外国人。一位消息人士表示，该政策可能在今夏实施——这一构想首次提出已有十多年。在去年十月的最新施政报告中，行政长官李家超将该计划视为发展高消费游艇经济的一种方式。“香港和澳门的游艇应从指定港口进出，并在划定的水域内进行水上休闲活动，” 草案文件中提到。根据草案提案，进入大陆水域的船只将不得不将其休闲活动限制在珠江三角洲和深圳湾的特定群岛位置。但当局将保留动态调整这些批准的休闲区域的权力。根据文件，广州南沙客运港、深圳蛇口邮轮母港、深圳机场渡轮码头、珠海万山港、珠海九洲港和中山港是政策初步实施中开放的六个指定入境点。政府还将实施对符合条件的入境船只免除担保的政策，并提供加快边境通关渠道，允许乘客在检查后直接返回游艇，文件补充道。该计划严格禁止游艇在进入大陆后运输货物或进行转让、抵押或其他用途。任何提交虚假材料以获取证书的参与者将面临立即撤销和三年内禁止重新申请的处罚。草案还指出，游艇需保持活跃的自动识别系统（AIS），而船主需与认可的大陆俱乐部签署管理协议，以确保安全和污染控制协议。AIS 应答器旨在自动向沿海当局和其他船只提供船舶的位置、身份和其他信息。香港树仁大学经济与金融系主任李树鑫表示，提议的独立旅行计划高度限制的单向性质在短期内将为香港带来微薄的经济利益，地方财富主要流向大陆。他补充说，当前框架主要可以作为一个受控的试点计划，用于测试跨境监测机制，然后可能放宽对国际参与者的监管。李表示，为了提升政策对香港的经济效益，当局可以通过将其限制为投资激励或开设家族办公室的方式进行修订，以便游艇所有者可以通过香港返回大陆。未来向外资船只和海外居民开放海上边界可能成为吸引富裕个人在香港建立家族办公室的强大吸引力，这位学者表示。这种扩展将推动对商业领域中高度专业化的服务的持续需求，包括法律、金融、海洋保险和游艇维护等，李补充道。根据香港机场管理局的数据，全球游艇市场的价值预计到 2032 年将达到 450 亿美元。该管理局表示，香港目前有 12,500 艘持牌游艇，但仅有 4,300 个泊位，迫切需要新的基础设施，例如法定机构最近推出的 “天空乌托邦” 码头。</p>

<p>一项新的跨境旅行计划将允许来自香港和澳门的游艇驶往大湾区六个指定港口，预计将在今夏实施。该提案包括特定的休闲航线，并允许当地游艇获得临时的大陆船舶国籍证书。然而，该计划最初仅限于持有大陆旅行许可证的香港和澳门居民。专家建议，该计划在短期内的经济效益可能有限，但未来的扩展可能会吸引外资并增强当地游艇经济</p>

<p>A long-awaited cross-border solo travel scheme will allow yachts from Macau and Hong Kong to easily sail to about six designated ports in the western waters off the Greater Bay Area, with the policy to be finalised as early as this summer, the South China Morning Post has learned. A Guangdong provincial government document, seen by the SCMP, also showed several routes that were recommended for leisure, such as the waters off Castle Peak Bay, the Pearl River Delta and Fan Lau Kok of the Lantau Channel. Under the proposal, leisure yachting tours would be allowed in the waters around the Wanshan islands, which are southwest of Hong Kong, and the smaller islands at bays such as Baicaowan, Nanwan, Luanshi Bay and Putouwan to the south of the city. The document also suggested that yachts with local licences could obtain a temporary mainland vessel nationality certificate to operate multiple times in designated areas for 180 days. The proposed guidelines limited applicants strictly to Hong Kong and Macau residents holding mainland travel permits in the initial stage, excluding foreigners who hold home-return permits. A source said that the policy might be implemented as early as this summer – more than a decade after the idea first emerged. In his latest policy address last October, Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu identified the scheme as a way to develop a high-spending yacht economy. “Hong Kong and Macau yachts should enter and exit from designated ports, and carry out water leisure activities within the delineated water areas,” the draft document said. Under the draft proposal, vessels entering mainland waters will have to restrict their leisure activities to specific locations in archipelagos within the Pearl River Delta and Shenzhen Bay. But authorities would retain the power to dynamically adjust these approved leisure zones. According to the document, Guangzhou Nansha passenger port, Shenzhen Shekou cruise homeport, Shenzhen airport ferry terminal, Zhuhai Wanshan port, Zhuhai Jiuzhou port and Zhongshan port were among the six designated entry points opened up in the initial roll-out of the policy. The government would also implement an exemption from needing a guarantee for eligible incoming vessels and offer expedited border clearance channels that allowed passengers to return directly to their yachts after inspection, the document added. The scheme strictly prohibited yachts from transporting cargo or engaging in transfers, mortgages or alternative uses after entering the mainland. Any participants who submitted false materials for their certificates would face immediate revocation and a three-year ban from reapplying. The draft also stated that yachts would be required to maintain active automatic identification systems (AIS), while owners would need to sign management agreements with recognised mainland clubs to ensure safety and pollution control protocols. AIS transponders are designed to automatically provide position, identification and other information about the ship to coastal authorities and other vessels. Lee Shu-kam, head of Hong Kong Shue Yan University’s economics and finance department, said that the proposed solo travel scheme’s highly restricted, one-way nature would yield minimal economic benefits for the city in the short term, with local wealth primarily flowing across the border. The current framework could serve primarily as a controlled pilot scheme for testing cross-border monitoring mechanisms before potentially easing regulations for international participants, he added. Lee said that to boost the policy’s economic benefit to Hong Kong, authorities could amend it by restricting it as an incentive for investment or to open a family office, so that yacht owners could return to the mainland via Hong Kong. Opening the maritime borders to foreign-owned vessels and overseas residents in the future could act as a powerful draw to attract wealthy individuals to the city to establish family offices, the academic said. Such an expansion would drive sustained demand for highly specialised professional services across the business sector, including legal, financial, marine insurance and yacht maintenance, Lee added. According to the Airport Authority Hong Kong, the value of the global yachting market is projected to reach US$45 billion by 2032. The authority said the city currently had 12,500 licensed yachts, which competed for only 4,300 berths, necessitating new infrastructure such as the statutory body’s recently launched “Skytopia” marina.</p>
