Nowhere near the design capabilities of the Italian/ euros though. Maybe in ten years“Shipyards in Taiwan and Mainland China have been exporting yachts around the world for many years and there is now a growing market in mainland China for locally built yachts,” Mike Simpson, Founder & CEO of Simpson Marine, commented. “Local builders are learning fast from their more established western counterparts and the quality is improving, but Asian buyers have come to expect cutting edge design, innovation and build quality – and throughout Asia they generally prefer to buy yachts from more established western shipyards. The ‘Designer Label’ is as important for yacht buyers as it is for buyers of cars, watches or handbags.”
Photo: Jinlong Mega YachtJinlong Mega Yacht is one such shipyard that is developing quickly. The yacht builder is owned by the conglomerate that recently acquired Balk Shipyard, Zhongying Int’l Holding Group Ltd. The Dutch shipyard will soon be working closely with Jinlong Mega Yachts, as the Chinese shipyard rolls out its expansion plans. Daan Balk confirmed this when the initial announcement was made, stating that his team will support the training activities at Jinlong Mega Yacht.
Will there be an upsurge of yacht building in China?
With a growing appetite for superyachts in China and Hong Kong, can we expect to see an increased activity in shipbuilding?www.superyachttimes.com
