Selene Ocean Yachts, a beacon of maritime excellence since its inception in 1998, symbolizes the pinnacle of luxury long-range trawlers and explorer yachts. Founded on the vision of Taiwanese architect Dr. Da-Hong and propelled into the future by Howard Chen, Selene has carved a niche in the nautical realm, heralding a new era of exploration beyond the horizon.
The name "Selene," inspired by the Greek goddess of the moon, reflects the brand's ambition to explore uncharted territories. With the first yacht sailing to the United States in 1999, Selene embarked on a voyage of innovation and craftsmanship, marking the beginning of a legacy with over 400 yachts navigating global waters today.
Nestled in the industrious heart of Dongguan, China, Selene's original shipyard became a crucible of creativity and quality, utilizing locally sourced woods, veneers, and luxurious materials to craft the interiors of its majestic vessels. The shipyard's strategic relocation to Zhuhai in 2008 further amplified its capabilities, accommodating the fabrication of larger yachts and enhancing its production prowess with state-of-the-art facilities.
Under Howard Chen's stewardship, Selene has continued to redefine maritime luxury, embodying the spirit of adventure in every design. The commitment to excellence and personalized approach to yacht building ensures that each Selene yacht is not just a vessel but a home upon the waves, promising unparalleled adventures for its discerning patrons.
