Founded
in 1982 by CEO Jimmy Cheng, Symbol Yacht Co., Ltd. believes that the success
of any business lies in its base of good people. Recognizing the importance of
the artistry, skill, and craftsmanship of a matured boat building industry
above cutting costs, Symbol is one of a small number of Taiwanese yacht
builders that have pledged not to move or begin manufacturing our boats in
locations with cheaper labor rates.
With
well over 20 years of experience throughout various Taiwanese shipbuilders,
Jimmy Cheng founded Symbol as the first production boat builder of planning
hulls in Taiwan. 27 years later Symbol has grown to become a successful
exporter and builder of semi-custom fine luxury motor yachts, classic, and
pilothouse yachts. We have a good solid record of meeting ISO 9001 and ABS
requirements, demonstrated best amongst others by a 58’ Yacht Fisherman we
built for the government of Queensland, as well as the PIL Harbour Launch
built for Hong Kong. Our facilities, situated a short 15 minute drive from
Kaohsiung International Airport now covers over 110,500 square feet with more
than 60% under cover. Symbol employs 100+ skilled workers, carpenters,
electricians, mechanics, designers, naval architects, and engineers, most with
20+ years of experience.
In
1998 world renown naval architect with 4 decades of experience, best known for
his mega yacht designs, Jack W. Sarin, signed on to become Symbol’s exclusive
designer. Our line of fine luxury yachts now covers many models sized from 42’
upwards to 88’ with the exception of a few models, most are
designed by Jack W. Sarin Naval Architects, Inc.
At
Symbol beauty is not just skin deep. Our belief is that our customers are not
just looking for an inexpensive Sarin look-a-like; they expect a beautiful
boat with a superbly engineered base. To truly understand the benefits of
melding Jack W. Sarin’s ingenuity with Symbol’s experienced craftsmanship
we encourage you to contact your closest Symbol dealer, ask questions, and
look beneath the surface. Above all, because some of the finer details, such
as the true artistry behind Jack W. Sarin’s lines and the contour of his
hull are most apparent by experience, we urge you to request a sea-trial and
learn for yourself the difference between true value and a good bargain.
