High performance yachts, combining safety and easy handling. Baltic Yachts is today a well-known builder of light-weight sailing yachts. We build semi-custom (ranging from 47-66 feet) and full custom yachts up to 200 feet. In order to enable us to build light and strong yachts, we utilize the latest high-tech materials and methods. The skillful people working here at the yard have a huge knowledge in boatbuilding and can make almost any sailing dream come true. This is a heritage based on local boatbuilding traditions, spanning as far back as the early 13th century. “So many things are machine-made today. I’m not saying that is bad, because I enjoy having a lot of the things that machines make, but they are very happy to be involved in the building of something that is still done by hand. There is a special sort of feeling there.

In yacht design and construction, the same rules apply as with many other things in life. No matter which way you decide to go-that alone will not guarantee a positive result. So many “smaller” decisions made along the way influence the final outcome. However, at Baltic Yachts they are convinced that a moderate light displacement boat is the best decision for a safe, comfortable cruising boat, as well as for an all-round racing boat and highly competitive ocean racers. Yet, in order to discover a yard’s actual philosophy, and how they live up to this philosophy, one must go into details. Delve into the yard’s thinking, ideas and real-world actions. Since the beginning, over thirty years ago, they have strived to keep themselves among the most progressive yacht builders in the world. In order to create superior yachts with regard to quality, comfort and speed, they chose to base their models on light-to-medium displacement designs.
