SELENE YACHTS ARE NOT PRODUCTION BOATS, BUT SEMI-CUSTOM, HANDCRAFTED, SOLID VESSELS THAT ARE AVAILABLE TO YOU AT COMPARABLE PRODUCTION BOAT PRICING
THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A RECREATIONAL “TRAWLER” AND A TRUE OCEAN GOING PASSAGEMAKER LIKE A SELENE. THE ABILITY TO POWER WITH CONFIDENCE ACROSS ANY SEA OR OCEAN IN SAFETY AND COMFORT IS CHIEF AMONG REASONS EXPERIENCED BOATERS GO TO SELENE, WHETHER THEIR ADVENTURES ARE COASTAL, GLOBAL OR SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN. THE DIFFERENCES INCLUDE STRONGER HULLS, WATERTIGHT BULKHEADS AND DOORS, FULL SKEG PROTECTED PROPELLER AND RUDDER, BACKUP BILGE PUMPS, LARGE SCUPPERS, CONTINUOUS DUTY ENGINES, AND AUTOMATIC ENGINE ROOM FIRE EXTINGUISHER SYSTEMS. WE DESIGN AND BUILD OUR YACHTS, IN OUR FACTORY FROM THE FIRST DRUM OF RESIN AND ROLL OF CLOTH TO THE UPHOLSTERY OF THE SALON! WE DON’T SUBCONTRACT THE WORK TO A THIRD-PARTY “PARTNER SHIPYARD” LIKE MANY OTHER BRANDS. WE HAVE BUILT OVER 400 YACHTS TO DATE.
HOWARD CHEN CONTINUES TO REMAIN INTIMATELY INVOLVED WITH EVERY PROJECT AND LIKES NOTHING BETTER THAN COMING UP WITH NEW IDEAS TO REFRESH HIS DESIGNS. IF YOU DECIDE TO BUY A NEW SELENE YACHT YOU CAN BE SURE THAT IT WILL COME WITH VERY PERSONAL ATTENTION FROM HOWARD AND HIS STAFF.

WHETHER CROSSING THE SEAS TO SEARCH THE LEGEND OF ANCIENT GREECE, MEANDERING THROUGH TROPICAL ISLANDS WITH WARM TRADE WINDS AT YOUR STERN, NEGOTIATING THREATENING RAPIDS IN BRITISH COLUMBIA OR DODGING ICEBERGS IN ALASKA OR THE INSIDE PASSAGE, SELENE EXPLORERS TAKE UP THE GAUNTLET ! CAPABLE OF A 3,000 NM RANGE AND 10 KNOTS CRUISE SPEED, SELENE EXPLORERS AFFORD THE ABILITY TO EXPLORE THE WORLD WHEREVER THE MOON AND STARS LEAD YOU… WHETHER YOU HAVE IN MIND THE GREAT LOOP, A SAFE AND RELAXED OCEAN PASSAGE, GUNK-HOLING IN THE BAHAMAS, ISLANDS HOPPING IN INDONESIA, EXTENDED COASTAL CRUISING IN STYLE IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA, EXPLORING THE HIGH LATITUDES OR A FAMILY WEEK-END AT SEA ON A HAPPY BOAT, BE YOUR OWN SKIPPER OR HAVE A CREW, SELENE EXPLORERS CAN BUILD YOUR DREAM YACHT. SELENE BOATS HAVE IN COMMON TO BE ELEGANT, RELIABLE AND THEY CAN SAFELY FACE THE OCEAN IN COMFORT. SELENE’S PHILOSOPHY IS THAT A GOOD BOAT MUST ALSO BE A BEAUTIFUL BOAT…
SELENE OCEAN EXPLORER
THE NAME SAYS IT ALL, THOSE SELENE YACHTS HAVE NO LIMITS, NOT EVEN THE HORIZON… BEYOND THE CLASSIC LINE OF OWNER-OPERATED OCEAN SELENE TRAWLERS-EXPLORERS, THE EXPEDITION BOATS ARE IN FACT VERSATILE SMALL LINERS THAT CAN STILL BE OPERATED BY A SMALL CREW. THE EXPEDITION YACHTS ARE TAILORED FOR A DISCERNING OWNER, WITH EIGHT GUESTS AND A CREW OF THREE TO FIVE, WHO WANT TO CRUISE EXTENSIVELY AND WANT TO SPEND MONTHS, IF NOT YEARS AT SEA, IN ABSOLUTE COMFORT AND INDEPENDENCE. THE SELENE EXPEDITION YACHTS CAN ALSO BE DESIGNED FOR CHARTER USE, WITH A CAPTAIN CABIN BEHIND THE BRIDGE, A SELENE EXPEDITION IS DESIGNED AS A VERY PROFESSIONAL VESSEL. FUEL TANKAGE AND SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN ADJUSTED TO THE INTENDED USE. A GYM, A JACUZZI, A STEAM BATH, TWO LARGE TENDERS, A DIVE CENTER, JUST NAME IT, A SELENE EXPEDITION CAN TAKE IT ALL. OF COURSE THEY CAN BE CUSTOMISED TO THE SMALLEST DETAILS FOR THEIR OWNERS. AND THE EXPEDITION LINE IS RINA AND ABS-CERTIFIED.
SELENE VOYAGER
THE SELENE VOYAGER LINE IS A NEWER DESIGN, THAT SELENE YACHTS HAS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE ORIGINAL SELENE ARCHER HULL. WITH THIS NEW LINE, SELENE CONTINUES TO BUILD UPON SELENE YACHTS’ TRADITION OF COMBINING THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF INDIVIDUALIZED CRAFTSMANSHIP WITH SUPERLATIVE DESIGN.
