Our website launches in:
X-Yachts
Precision. Performance. Pure sailing pleasure. Founded in Denmark in 1979, X-Yachts has delivered over 6,000 yachts to owners who value balance, speed and engineering excellence. The range spans Pure X, X-Cruising and X-Racing — each designed to match different sailing ambitions, from fast coastal passages to blue-water comfort and competitive racing. Every yacht is built with fanatical attention to detail and a deep understanding of what matters at sea. Whether you're drawn to exhilarating performance or refined cruising, X-Yachts offers a world-class experience shaped by Scandinavian craftsmanship and sailing DNA.
VAAN Yachts
Sustainable luxury. Silent performance. A more sustainable way to explore. VAAN builds aluminium multihulls from 40 to 80 feet, crafted in the Netherlands using circular materials and electric-ready systems. These yachts offer generous living space, intuitive handling and a boutique interior experience — all with minimal environmental impact. Owners choose VAAN not just for style and comfort, but for a forward-thinking approach to sailing. From recycled aluminium hulls to natural interiors and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, VAAN represents a new chapter in premium yachting: modern, responsible and effortlessly elegant.
Leonardo Yachts
Timeless elegance. Boutique craftsmanship. Effortless sailing. Leonardo Yachts creates classic Dutch daysailers from 38 to 70 feet, blending heritage design with modern engineering and push-button simplicity. Each yacht in the Eagle range is hand-built with graceful lines, artisanal detail and a warm, personal character. Owners become part of the wider Eagle family — drawn to the romance of traditional boatbuilding and the pride of owning something truly distinctive. Whether moored in Port Grimaud or gliding through coastal waters, Leonardo Yachts turn heads and create lasting memories.

Who we are
Specialising in the facilitation of yacht ownership with end-to-end support.
For over 25 years, Fortis Marine has helped owners choose, commission and care for yachts that reflect who they are on the water. What began with X‑Yachts has grown into a trusted, relationship‑led business representing a curated collection of Europe’s most exceptional builders.
Every owner’s journey is different. Some arrive with a clear brief; others begin with a feeling — adventure, family time, quiet anchorages or the simple joy of a beautifully built boat. Our role is to listen, understand and guide each owner toward the right yacht and the right path forward.
We believe yacht ownership is more than a transaction. It’s a lifestyle, a rhythm and a way of seeing the world — and we support our clients throughout every stage of that journey.
Why use us
Specialising in tailored yacht ownership support — from first enquiry to long-term care.
At Fortis Marine, we offer more than yacht sales. With over 200 new‑build deliveries and more than 230 pre‑owned handovers, our team brings a depth of experience built over decades. We provide a structured, relationship‑led approach to yacht ownership — guiding clients through specification, commissioning, seasonal care and long‑term planning. Every step is handled with clarity, discretion and technical precision.
We represent a considered selection of builders who share our values: craftsmanship, innovation and a genuine respect for the sailing lifestyle. Whether you’re buying your first yacht or refining your fleet, we offer tailored advice, transparent processes and ongoing support.
Choosing Fortis Marine means choosing a partner who understands the full ownership journey — and who’s committed to making it seamless, rewarding and built around you.
