Pride Mega Yachts

Based on China’s Yantai Peninsula on the Bohai Gulf, superyacht builder Pride Mega Yachts (formerly Pryde Mega Yachts) is dedicated to delivering wholly custom, European-quality luxury yacht projects with the competitive price tag made possible by China’s lower labour rates.

History of Pride Mega Yachts

Luxury yacht builder Pride Mega Yachts is a recent evolution of shipyard Raffles Yacht (also known as Yantai Raffles), which gained international fame when it launched the 88.15m, “proa”-style MY _Asean Lady _in 2004. The 90.1m traditional superyacht Nero delivered in 2007 also was constructed at Yantai Raffles. In 2010, the shipyard was acquired by China International Marine Containers (CIMC), a global 11-billion-dollar enterprise. CIMC rebranded the superyacht builder as Pryde Mega Yachts, then changed the name slightly to the current Pride Mega Yachts.

Notable Pride Mega Yachts

The flagship for superyacht builder Pride is Illusion Plus, an 88m motor yacht delivered in 2018. Naval architecture for the project is by world renowned Azure Naval Architects, while interior design is by Sander Sinot. The décor is Asian-inspired elegance and the yacht accommodates 16 guests in 8 staterooms with 25 crew.

Specialisations of Pride Mega Yachts

Luxury yacht builder Pride Mega Yachts specialises in the development and construction of 80- to 120-metre custom super yachts either from their own design boards or in collaboration with yacht design firms all over the world. The shipyard currently is offering two other superyacht designs, the 115m Estatement and 108.8m Tomorrow.
