"Since 1795 - recalled the CEO of Meyer Werft, Bernard Meyer - we built more than 700 ships are in Papenburg. Therefore our references can be admired on all the oceans of the world. Now - he added - we are opening the next chapter of our history by entering the mega yacht market. We have already received a lot of feedback positive since we can realize ideas and ships of scope unlimited, even the seemingly craziest ones. Currently - said Meyer - we are seeing that the demand for mega yacht is on the rise, and there is room for another construction site in this segment».
