History of the company
Good Scandinavian cruisers have been launched under the Faurby brand since 1976. However, the shipyard’s name has never been heard. She has never pursued fame or volume, only quality and customers who share her aesthetics. The company consistently produces no more than 10-15 yachts per year and, as Faurby is particularly proud of, all its yachts are still on the move.
Niels Peter Faurby founded the shipyard and in 2010 the company was taken over by Thomas Dan Hougaard. He follows the same ideology and wants Faurby sailing yachts to be seen as Porshe 911:
«We do not want to be modern and do not want to be a classic. We want to be out of time; we want to build boats that will look good and sail well even after 20 years.
