GARCIA YARD - Route de Vire, Northern France

Williams & Smithells visit Garcia Yachts in Route de Vire - a truly eye opening experience and education in blue water boat building

Building a rounded aluminium hull in itself is an art which can easily result in having to cover up imperfections and unwanted undulations, Not at Garcia yachts their workmanship is at a level where their hulls require no such modifications after build, it comes down to experience and with 40 years under their belt this manufacturer has plenty of it.

A sister company to Allures Yachts based in Cherbourg, Garcia Yachting has recently been commissioned to build Jimmy Cornell's latest vessel to continue his Blue Planet Odyssey in which he intends to navigate the infamous North West Passage.


Aptly named the Exploration 45, it didn't take long for the blue water enthusiast to come knocking at the yards door and before they new it plans to build hull No.4 are already in place.
