Sunreef

IYC serves as the Exclusive Commercial Agent for Sunreef Yachts in the United Kingdom. This strategic alliance underscores IYC's commitment to providing unparalleled yachting experiences and reinforces its position at the forefront of the luxury yachting industry.

At the heart of Sunreef Yachts' innovation is Francis Lapp, its founder and leader. Born in France in 1958, Lapp began his career in electric power and construction, eventually starting his own business. A passionate rally racer, he first visited Poland for a rally and saw its potential for growth in the 1990s. He established himself there, producing electrical devices for international brands and expanding into design and installation services for large industrial sites.

In Poland, Lapp discovered a passion for sailing, starting with small racing catamarans and progressing to larger cruising catamarans. He set up a travel agency offering charters in the Indian Ocean, which flourished due to demand for spacious, luxurious catamarans. Realizing a market gap for such yachts, he founded Sunreef Yachts to build large, custom luxury multihulls.

Lapp established a shipyard in Gdansk, known for its shipbuilding heritage, and in 2003, Sunreef Yachts launched the world's first 74ft luxury ocean-going catamaran with a flybridge. This innovation marked a new era in yacht design.

Today, Sunreef Yachts is a global leader in luxury sail and power catamarans, known for their bespoke designs and showcased at premier yacht shows worldwide, including Cannes, Monaco, Miami, and Singapore.
