Albin Motor was founded in Sweden in 1899 as a marine engine manufacturer, and in the 1960s started building small sailing yachts in order to increase the market for their engines. Albin became successful as a boatbuilder, gave up engine production, and over the next 30 years moved on from sailing to power yachts, expanding to include a factory in the USA. Albin went out of business in 2008, but the company has since been re-formed.

Bavaria Yachts was founded in the early 1970s and initially built quite small numbers of small to mid-sized yachts. Most early Bavarias were quite expensive when new, with quality hand-built interiors. As the company expanded the size and range of yachts built increased, and they started to separate out their products into definite ranges - those marked E for "exclusive" remaining better fitted out, with lead keels, whilst the other ranges included S - "Sport" or H - "Holiday " - the latter being built to a lower price and aimed at the charter market. By the mid-1990s Bavaria had given up the early high quality fit-outs, and was firmly into mass production, turning out large numbers of boats at prices other builders were struggling to match. Modern Bavarias may no longer have hand-crafted interiors with lots of solid wood, but the boats are well enough put together to survive the hard life of charter and sailing schools, and offer the private buyer a lot of boat for the money.

Benjamin Bènèteau set up a boatyard in 1884, initially building sailing fishing boats, and moving on to motorised boats as sail gave way to steam. In the 1960s the company, still with family members in control, started building yachts, and became a major producer in Europe. In 1986 Beneteau opened a factory in the USA, and between 1995 and 1997 took over Jeanneau, Lagoon catamarans, and Henri Wauquiez yachtbuilders, though Wauquiez was sold off again a few years later. As well as building yachts, Beneteau have for some time also been producing prefabricated mobile homes - the two production skills being in some ways similar. For about 15 years Beneteau's ranges of sailing yachts have been split into "First" (racing style), "Oceanis" (cruisers), and "Cyclades" (lower cost cruisers for the charter market), to which the innovative "Sense" range of larger cruisers has recently been added.

Colvic Craft was based in Essex, and was originally known as Ardleigh Laminated Plastics. They were the largest moulder of GRP hulls in the UK from the 1970s to the early 1990s. The hulls were sold in varying stages of completion, to both amateur and professional builders. Many Colvic moulded hulls were sold under other names. Colvic went into liquidation in 1999.

Contessas: Jeremy Rogers set up as a traditional wooden boatbuilder in 1961, and in 1966 built the first Contessa 26 in GRP for the designer, David Sadler. The design became very popular, and the 26 was followed by the Contessa 32. Rogers later built many other sizes of yacht under the Contessa name, but the 26 and 32 were by far the most popular. Jeremy Rogers stopped yachtbuilding for a few years in the 1990s, but now once again builds a very few Contessa 32s to special order.

Michel Dufour started Dufour Yachts in 1964, initially building the small Sylphe design sailing cruiser. In 1968 the Arpege was introduced, and became a major success. By the early 1970s Dufour was the largest yachtbuilder in Europe, though first Beneteau and later Bavaria eventually took over that position. In 1999 Dufour acquired Gib-Sea Yachts, and continued to market them as a separate lower cost range.

Etap were a large Belgian company with a variety of products, and have been building yachts since 1970. Etaps have always been cleverly engineered, with many custom-made alloy fittings. In 1990 the yacht building division was split off as a separate company, Etap Yachting. In 2008 Etap Yachting was bought by Dehler, but in 2009 Dehler then became insolvent. At present Etaps are no longer being built, but plans are in place to restart production, possibly in Eastern Europe.

Gib'Sea was brand name used by the Gibert Marine, which was founded in 1972, initially as a builder of small keelboats. They soon progressed to being a major builder of cruising-orientated yachts. Gib'Seas have always featured simply fitted but very practical interiors, on well built hulls. In the mid 1990s the company was taken over by Dufour, who continued to produce yachts under the Gib'Sea name.

In 1972 Harry Hallberg and Christoph Rassy merged their boatyard operations to become Hallberg-Rassy, building a long series of quality boats by top designers including Olle Enderlein and Germán Frers. Hallberg-Rassys have always been very expensive new, and for many sailors represent the ideal cruising yacht.

The British company Hunter Boats was set up in 1969 near Rochford, Essex, initially building keelboats and small cruisers. Sizes of yachts built increased, though the biggest British Hunter to date is the Mystery 35. In 2003 Hunter Boats was taken over by Select Yachts (builders of Cornish Crabbers). In 2008 Select Yachts went into administration, and Lauren Marine took over the Hunter name, and rights to some smaller Hunter models. In 2009 they set up Hunter Boats Ltd again, currently building a limited range of models. A re-formed Cornish Crabbers now builds the Mystery range under a new name of Mystery Yachts.

The US-based Hunter Marine Corporation evolved from Warren Luhrs boatyard operation, and started building sailing yachts in 1973. Hunter became a large-scale builder, aiming at the lower cost end of the market, and developing a distinctive range of yachts – currently 15 to 50 ft – most with the backstay-less B & R rig. When marketed in the UK, American Hunters were sold as “Hunter Legends” to avoid confusion with the British Hunters. For a time the US Hunter Marine operated a second factory in England, but this has now closed.

Henri Jeanneau in sold his first boat in Les Herbiers, France in 1957, and by 1960 was producing small GRP motor boats on a production basis. The range expanded to sail in the mid 1960s, and from 1970 to 1990 the company was US-owned, building a wide range of sailing and power yachts in both France and the USA. In 1990 Jeanneau was sold back into French ownership, and in 1995 was bought out by Beneteau, who chose to continue the Jeanneau range as a separate marque, with different styles and construction methods to Beneteaus.

There has been a Moody boatyard at Swanwick, near Southampton since the 1870s, though it was in the 1930s that Alexander Moody first started to build yachts. Moody was traditionally a high quality wooden yacht builder, moving into GRP hulls in the 1960s. In 1972 Moodys entered into a joint venture with Marine Projects Ltd of Plymouth (now Princess Yachts) to build a range of production GRP boats. For a time in the 1990s some Moodys were also built by Prout - builders of a range of catamarans. The Moody boatyard at Swanwick steadily turned into a sales and service centre for Moody, and a marina operation. In 2007 Moodys was bought by Hanse Yachts of Germany. Production Moodys are generally well built yachts, with a good quality fit-out, though the fitout quality on the lower-priced Prout-built Excel and Elite models is more basic. Under Hanse ownership, Moodys have created two ranges - innovative deck-saloon designs, and a consciously "retro" series of more traditional yachts.

Camper & Nicholson can trace the roots of their company history in Gosport as boat and shipbuilders back to 1782, and throughout most of the 20th century were one of the premier quality builders of cruising and racing yachts. In the 1960s they started building GRP production yachts, with moulding and fitouts largely subcontracted. In the 1990s the company became Crest Nicholson, and moved into housing and marina development, though a few more yachts were built under the Nicholson name until 2005.

Parker Yachts started with racing dinghy building, but took over building the Super Seal lift-keel small yacht design from John Baker in 1983. Parker went on to build series of larger fairly high performance lift-keeler yachts, the largest being the 335. Parker ceased trading in 2009.

The Rival range of yachts, from 31 to 41 ft, were all designed by Peter Brett and built by Southen Boatbuilding, though some bare hulls were sold for fit-out. All are distinctively styled and have a very good reputation for seaworthiness.

Rustlers started with a 31-footer, and for quite a long period this and the 36 were the only Rustlers, both essentially bigger Folkboat types. Rustler Yachts now builds a wider range of yachts from 24 to 44 ft, with plans to build 57 ft and 63 ft models - like all builders fewer and fewer smaller yachts are being sold.

Sadler Yachts started in 1974 with Martin Sadler building the Sadler 25, as a more modern replacement for his father's Contessa 26 design. The range of Sadlers expanded with boats up to 46 ft. In 1989 the company went into administration, but for a time it was one of the larger British boatbuilding companies. The last of the Sadlers were the Sadler Starlights, which were then taken on by other builders.

Westerly Yachts was for many years the largest British boatbuilder, starting in 1963 with plywood bilge-keelers, moving on to GRP production in the late 60s. Many of their boats were built in large numbers, most being solidly built family cruisers. The marque survived several company closures and re-starts, until it finally expired in the late 1990s. The name was briefly resurrected in 2008, but only two boats were built. The boats themselves were always good - but the economics of UK boatbuilding, and a failure to follow trends, was probably their downfall.
