For thousands of years, vessels have been essential to human progress, yet seasickness has always been a persistent challenge for seafarers. Despite numerous efforts to find a solution, success was limited. In 1999, Abeking & Rasmussen took on the challenge, developing the SWATH@A&R technology to set new benchmarks in comfort and stability. Since then, the shipyard has delivered 25 SWATH@A&R vessels, known for their exceptional stability even in rough seas. This groundbreaking innovation has established the shipyard as a global leader in this specialized sector of the shipbuilding industry.
In recent years, numerous yachts launched by the shipyard have brought home multiple prizes, for instance Aviva, Elandess, Cloudbreak and Excellence.
A valuable corporate culture can only emerge when standards are continuously adapted to a changing world.

We strive to be an active part of this change and to help shape the future as a responsible company.
