Building Phases

As our client, you can permanently witness your Dream Yacht being built

As our client, you will receive a password giving you exclusive and permanent access to areas where you can witness all phases of your yacht being built. It does not matter where you live or work. You can permanently follow all the building phases via the Internet. You not only accompany the building progress, but you can also send us your desired changes at any time and check their implementation.


 

All building phases of a wooden yacht

On the following pages you will find descriptions and photos of all the building phases involved in building a yacht, from the design up to the delivery.


 

Quality versus time

We have placed great emphsis on the high quality of our photos (as is the case with our yachts). We hope you will understand that, as a result of this, the pages will take a little longer to load.
For this reason we have integrated a special mechanism to speed up loading time. This, however, will only work properly when you look at the pages one after another in the order below.

If you happen to click directly on the individual pages from the list below, it can lead to longer loading time. We can assure you that the enjoyment of the uniquely beautiful photographs will be worth the wait.
