Every brand in our portfolio was exceptional before we arrived.

Our job is to ensure they stay that way for the next generation - or more - of owners.

We've grown our portfolio with intention.

A Niche Watercraft vessel is not purchased. It is chosen.

Chosen after years of research.
Chosen after years of knowing what you want.
Chosen after years of searching for a builder that understands.

A series of decisions leading up to a yacht that is truly your own.

We steward brands that were already exceptional. Our role - quite simply - is to make sure they stay that way.

A gentle nod ✨

Some connections aren’t coincidence — they’re heritage.

Mark Bruckmann’s father built his craft in the C&C custom shop. Decades later, our new chief designer, Tim Jackett, spent part of his 49 years shaping C&C’s lines during Tartan’s stewardship of the brand.

Two threads of the same legacy, now woven into the new Bruckmann+Ellis logo.

The vacuum-infused hull.
The Harken hardware throughout.
The dovetail-joined drawers below.

A Blue Jacket is built to reward an owner who keeps their boats for decades because the details endure.

7.27.26 A refreshed brand voice that feels contemporary yet timeless.

Bruckmann Yachts built its reputation over decades on a foundation of precision craftsmanship and deep nautical heritage. The addition of Ellis to the brand name signals not a departure from these values, but an expansion of expertise, design vision and client service capability.

Bruckmann+Ellis Yachts exists for those who refuse to choose between performance and beauty. We craft vessels that are as purposeful as they are magnificent and built for a life well-lived on the water.

Tim Jackett and Bob Johnson didn't design the Blue Jacket 40 to win a prize. They designed it to be the best 40-foot performance cruiser possible. The prize simply followed.

Cruising World called it Boat of the Year. The owners who sailed them for the next decade called it the right decision.

Both were correct.
