Sunreef Yachts President Francis Lapp and his wife Munira attended the opening of the Sunreef Eco Club at the Citychamp Dartong Yacht Club in Fuzhou, the capital of Fujian province on China’s southeast coast. Fuzhou is situated almost equidistant between Hong Kong and Shanghai.
“With the Sunreef Eco Club in Fuzhou, we unlock new possibilities and enter a dynamic and proactive local yachting scene,” said Lapp, who founded Sunreef in 2002. “The region provides an outstanding environment to grow and keep promoting sustainable yachting technologies.”
The Sunreef Eco Club’s high-profile opening ceremony featured many VIPs including the President of the China Sports Chamber of Commerce, swimmer Luomeng Ren, a former world champion in the women’s 800m, and former China volleyball star Ting Qiao.

The Sunreef Eco Club will “serve as a showroom and promote clean boating locally”, according to the Polish shipyard, which is the world leader in large luxury power and sailing catamarans and a pioneer of energy-efficient luxury yachts through its Eco series and green technology.
Nina Lee Boudoul, Sunreef’s Director of Asia Pacific, delivered a presentation on the vision and mission of the Sunreef Eco Club, emphasising its role in fostering sustainable yachting practices in the region.

As a key part of Sunreef’s strategy in Asia-Pacific and globally, the selection of Citychamp Dartong Yacht Club was due to its prime location and its vision of sustainable development, including its support of electric vessels.
“The successful launch of the Sunreef Eco Club not only reinforces Sunreef Yachts’ dedication to sustainability but also enhances its presence in the Asia-Pacific market,” Sunreef stated.
