The Atelier

Where French Savoir-Faire Meets the Sea

A Maison in les Sables d’Olonne

Privilège Marine is not a factory; it is a Maison . anchored in the historic port of Les Sables d’Olonne. For 40 years, this is where our knowledge stands, and where we have cultivated a specific art of living at sea.

Here, we reject the rush of mass production. Instead, we embrace the luxury of time. We believe that precision requires patience and that true quality cannot be a race against the clock. In our workshops, time stands still so that every detail can take its rightful place , ensuring that the result lasts a lifetime.

Meet the Dream Shapers

A Privilège catamaran is not built; it is shaped by human hands. We do not have workers—we have Dream Shapers.

They are cabinetmakers, laminators, engineers, and sailors. They are the guardians of a rare heritage, passing down expertise from one generation to the next. Each Dream Shaper brings a specific talent to the vessel, working with the meticulousness of a couturier

Haute Couture Shipbuilding

Haute Couture Shipbuilding

We define ourselves by “Haute Couture Shipbuilding”. Just as a great fashion house tailors a garment to the individual, we treat every hull as a unique signature.

To walk through our shipyard is to witness a sensory experience. It is the scent of teak and new leather ; it is the sound of focused silence as a team perfects the soundproofing of a cabin. It is the fusion of engineering luxury and artisanal tradition.

Crafted for the Long Term

Our Dream Shapers do not just assemble parts; they build stories that live on for years. They build with the knowledge that this vessel will cross oceans. From the robustness of the rostrum to the softness of the upholstery, every element is designed to withstand the years as well as the waves.

At Privilège Marine, we take the time to do things right , so you can enjoy the privilege of time regained on the water.
