The Maybach Ocean Club develops a new idea of yachting through a first-of-its-kind superyacht membership, extending the sophisticated elegance of Mercedes-Maybach to life at sea. Developed in close collaboration with Mercedes-Benz Design, the Maybach Ocean Club merges aspirational design and inspiring experiences with the benefits of yachting – including scenic ports of call and bespoke service, without the responsibilities of ownership.
The Maybach name has long been synonymous with refined prestige. Driven by a passion for excellence, the brand creates unique experiences designed for those who appreciate the extraordinary. This spirit comes to life in the Maybach Ocean Club: a curated private members’ club offering a discerning community for connoisseurs seeking excellence with substance, ushering a new chapter of tailor-made experiences that go beyond the product and embody the Maybach lifestyle.
Maybach’s maritime connection dates back to the 1920’s, when the brand drew on its visionary technical expertise to create engines that powered early automobiles, aircraft and boats, laying the foundation for collaboration with leading shipping companies. Today, the Maybach Ocean Club expands on this heritage, merging tradition with progression.
“We saw an opportunity to create a new model that enhances the joys of yachting without the burden of management and maintenance”, said Michael Hehn, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Maybach Ocean Club. “This club reflects the spirit of innovation, but also speaks to something timeless – sharing special places and experiences with people who matter most in our lives.”
Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach are credited with building one of the first motorboats powered by an internal combustion engine. “This superyacht carries the signature of the Maybach brand in every detail” notes Markus Bauer, Head of Mercedes-Maybach.
“More than a vessel, the Club’s heart lies in the private circle of friends that will come together through the shared experiences aboard the yacht, in the water, or on excursions together,” added Captain Matthias Bosse, Co-Founder and Managing Director. “Whether sailing to St. Barths or Sardinia, every journey is about more than travel, it is a chance to build lifelong memories and lasting friendships.”
A world reserved for an extraordinary few. Mercedes-Maybach continues to set benchmarks in pioneering luxury, reinforcing its founders’ guiding philosophy “the very best of the very best”. Membership in Maybach Ocean Club is by invitation only and limited to maintain intimacy and privacy.
