Business Profile

Oceanco has been designing and building tailor-made luxury superyachts since 1990. A leading specialist in the niche market of 80m+ (262ft), this Dutch yacht builder is one of the world’s finest. The company’s experienced team of naval architects, marine engineers and talented craftsmen ensure that all Oceanco yachts are built to unsurpassed world-class standards with meticulous attention to detail and dedication to the utmost quality.

Oceanco has to date successfully delivered twenty spectacular and industry-renowned superyachts. In 2004, Oceanco began constructing a new type of yacht for a very particular type of owner – yachts for yachtsmen. Entirely committed to realising the owners’ vision for their yacht, the company provides the ultimate in innovation and style, based upon thorough and superior engineering. Totally custom-built yachts such as the 80m (262.47ft) Amevi, the 82m (269.03ft) Alfa Nero and the 75.50m (247.70ft) Anastasia – all winners of several prestigious industry awards – are the ultimate in sophistication and state-of-the-art design. In 2009, Oceanco delivered another innovative megayacht –the 85.47m (280.41ft) Vibrant Curiosity.

Four new tailor-made yachts are currently under various stages of construction. The next in line is the 85.50m (280.52ft) Y705 with sleek and elegant exterior design by Björn Johansson and interior by Terence Disdale. This yacht will be launched at the end of 2009. The 86m (282.15ft) Y706 designed by Nuvolari & Lenard will be delivered in 2010, followed by the 87m (285.43ft) Y707 in 2011. The latest one under development at Oceanco is the impressive and innovative Y708. This 85.50m (280.52ft) superyacht designed by Igor Lobanov is scheduled for delivery in 2012.

As a yacht-building company, Oceanco is conscious of the environmental impact of building, owning and operating a large yacht. As such, the company is dedicated to the pursuit of green technology research and development, and is actively integrating optimized alternative technology systems on all newly built yachts. Y708 will be the first Oceanco yacht to feature an Environmental Protection Notation from Lloyd’s Register which serves as a mark of high level environmental performance of the yacht.
