The superyacht fleet keeps expanding in size. Rybovich is in the process of dredging the east facing dock on its marina. This will increase the marina’s deep draft dock space by 140m. After this expansion, more dredging will occur at the north yard service facility.
SuperyachtNews.com speaks to Francois van Well, vice president of business development at Rybovich, “The land space we have there is three times the size of what we now use for the out-of-water works, so this will enable us to tailor the Service Facility to market demands,” says van Well.
There is a momentum going for plans and permits for a new basin capable of handling a further six 100m superyachts, though there is not an exact date set.
There are currently already three owners that are looking at Rybovich marina for the base of their large yacht.
