Started in 1992, Hampton Yacht Building Company is one of the first companies from Taiwan to start yacht building in China. Jeff Chen, Chairman of Hampton Yacht Building Company of Shanghai, has more than 20 years experience in the boat building industry. His family has been building the Formosa line of fine yachts in Taiwan for more than 40 years and has built more than 2000 boats over the years. Jeff Chen has spent the last 13 years filling key positions in the Hampton shipyard in Shanghai with the very best people from the top yards in Taiwan. Currently, Hampton's staff includes 200 skilled workers, finish carpenters, designers, technical engineers, and naval architects.
It is the experience and expertise that we are bringing to bear on the Hampton line of fine yachts, which are designed for serious passage making. Refining the pilothouse design concept, Hampton Yachts now offers the new line of Pilothouse ranging from 50' to 74'. Hampton Yachts also offers aft cabin motor yachts and sedan motor yachts ranging from 56' to 66'.
Hampton Yachts is a semi-custom yacht builder, allowing the customers to input their ideas as to the layout of the interior arrangement, in addition to choose from various woods, veneers, fabrics, and materials. We also have various standard layouts for the customer to choose from.
Utilizing the lower labor cost of China, we are able to include more details into each boat. Compare our fine yachts with some of the world's premier yacht builders, you will realize that Hampton's quality is second to none.
With the increasing demand for Hampton yachts and to better serve Hampton's customers in the North America, Hampton Yacht International Corp., an USA corporation, was founded in 2002, as the distributor and importer of Hampton yachts. Hampton Yachts has signed up five dealers in the USA to better serve customer in each region. The current Hampton dealers are: Anchor Yachts of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Altair Yachts of Oakland, California, Adventure Yachts of Seattle, Washington, Stony Point Yachts of Webster, New York, and Golden West Yachts of Los Angeles, California. |
