The history of Franck Roy's boatyard

The Franck Roy boatyard was founded in 1998 by Franck Roy, a passionate of boats and vintage cars. Originally trained as a shipbuilder, Franck Roy worked for over ten years at Sysba Marine and Latitude 46 before creating his own boatyard. The yard quickly gained recognition for its neo-classical sailboats, combining traditional aesthetics with modern technology. In 2019, the yard was acquired by Romuald Tuffery, a young Vendée-based entrepreneur, who aimed to modernize processes while preserving the know-how and DNA of the yard. Despite challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the yard continues to produce high-quality boats appreciated for their design and performance.
