Project TURNAROUND

Spring 2003: the project SURFING ENTERPRISE exists as a carcass inside a Southern France boatyard that faces insolvency immediately.
At this point in time, new founded company vB-Marine GmbH starts taking care of the project. At first, property on the existing construction is being saved. After that, the team of vB-Marine with partners supervise the continuation of construction, while simultaneously performing a Due Diligence for interested clients.

Summer/Autumn 2003: the offer for any takeover of the company can not be suggested. vB-Marine transfers the SURFING ENTERPRISE under her own engines to another boatyard, hires employees of the liquidated company and supervises the continuation of works.

Spring/Summer 2004: due to the continuing presence and organization by vB-Marine, the SURFING ENTERPRISE is launched in March 2004 and sails her first 4.000 miles from Marseille to the North Sea, reaching top speeds of 22 knots.
