Superyacht UK is a unique membership only association, our mission is to represent the interests of the UK Superyacht industry both at home and internationally. Our members cover the diversity of the UK industry from leading naval architects to award-winning manufacturers, and all of our 250 plus members draw on this island nation’s rich heritage as seafaring pioneers and spearhead truly world-class products and services.
