Why 101Marine

One yard. Every step of the build.

From concept renders to commissioning, every hull is built under one roof in the UAE. That means tighter quality control, shorter lead times, and a single point of accountability for the life of your boat.

Inside the shipyard →

Naval architecture in-house

Our marine engineers model every hull for the Gulf — sea state, draft, beam, and shading.

Interiors built to spec

A full joinery and upholstery floor lets us turn your moodboard into reality without subcontracting.

Class-ready certification

Hulls delivered to UAE FTA, RINA, or Lloyd's — your call, briefed up-front.

After-sales on the water

Berth-side service across UAE marinas. Annual maintenance plans, refits, and warranty in one team.

What people use them for

One hull, many lives.

Private living

A floating home for owners who want a quiet address on the water without leaving the city.

Rental investment

Position your boat on Airbnb or your own platform — strong nightly rates across UAE peak season.

Personal retreat

Weekend escapes, family stays, a place to disconnect — without the upkeep of a beach villa.

Floating business

Cafés, lounges, event venues, photoshoot studios — purpose-built for paid passenger operation.

Our sales office is at P2042 — Al Raha, Abu Dhabi. Houseboats are built at our Shipyard & Production facility in Abu Dhabi Industrial City — ICAD III, where naval architecture, joinery, upholstery, and final fit-out are managed by the 101Marine team.

Standard production models (Elite, Ocean, Hamda, Meera) typically deliver in 6–9 months. Bespoke commissions through the Marjan program take 9–14 months from contract to handover, including sea trials and class certification.
