HanseYachts AG builds Sealine motor yachts at its yard in Greifswald, Germany. The English brand joined the German group in 2013, and its sister brands include Hanse, Dehler, Moody and Fjord.
Where were Sealine boats originally made?
In Kidderminster, England. Aircraft engineer Tom Murrant founded the company there as Fibrasonic Marine in 1972, and boats were built in the town for about four decades before production moved to Germany.
What models does Sealine offer today?
About a dozen models between 33 and 43 feet: the C335 and S335, the C390 and S390, the S430 and the F430 flybridge, several of them sold in additional variants.
Sealine is an English motor yacht brand, founded in Kidderminster in 1972, whose sport cruisers and flybridges are built today by HanseYachts AG in Germany. The current range runs to about a dozen models between 33 and 43 feet.
Kidderminster beginnings under Tom Murrant
Aircraft engineer Tom Murrant started the company as Fibrasonic Marine in 1972; its first boat was a 22 foot weekender built at Kidderminster, an inland town in the English Midlands. The 30 Fly, the yard's first flybridge cruiser, and the 285 Ambassador sold strongly in the late 1970s. By the late 1980s Sealine was exporting to the United States and counted among the big four British motorboat builders. Brunswick Corporation bought the company in 2004 for 68 million dollars.
German production under HanseYachts AG
In 2013 the brand passed to the group around HanseYachts AG, and production moved to Greifswald on Germany's Baltic coast, where the group also builds Hanse, Dehler and Moody sailboats and Fjord motorboats. The group's majority owner, the investment company Aurelius SE, holds the Sealine brand. Today's range covers twelve models across four styles, from the C335 and S335 at 33 feet to the S430 and the F430 flybridge at 43 feet.
Sealine on the used and charter market
Four decades of British production left plenty of Kidderminster-built Sealines on the brokerage market, and German-built models such as the F430 have joined them. GetBoat has Sealine listings for both charter and sale, including the current F430, next to sailing yachts from sister brand Hanse.
