YYachts strengthens Management Team

YYachts is enlarging its sales organization as the company celebrates its tenth anniversary this year. Effective June 1, Bredenbeck has assumed responsibility for the worldwide sales operations of the shipyard. In addition to leading sales, he will drive the internationalization of the YYachts brand and further expand the company’s brokerage and charter activities.

Bredenbeck brings decades of industry experience to the role. He began his career in 1990 building racing yachts before moving into the sales of premium yachts, where he has spent many years working with discerning international clients.

The 55-year-old commented: “I felt it was time for a new challenge in my professional career, and I did not have to think twice when YYachts approached me. I have worked with several of my new colleagues in the past, and over recent years YYachts has built a truly exceptional team.”

An accomplished sailor himself, Bredenbeck believes the company is exceptionally well positioned for the future: “The design, quality and, of course, the performance of these yachts are outstanding and virtually unmatched anywhere in the world. We are confident that YYachts will inspire many new owners in the years ahead.”

Michael Schmidt, founder of YYachts, warmly welcomed the new addition to the team: “Gregor and I have successfully completed numerous projects together over the years. I have always admired the professionalism he demonstrated in every role he held. With Gregor on board, we are entering a new chapter in the development of our global sales activities.”
