Hargrave Custom Yachts

US design and sales house that does not own a yard: its motor yachts are built in Taiwan, mainly by long-time partner Kha Shing, with the larger steel/aluminium tri-decks built by its HSY division in Antalya, Turkey. Heavy repeat-owner business in the 25–40 m bracket, with a 56 m one-off as the high point.
