Lürssen Opens a Service Center in Tarragona, Spain
Lürssen now has a permanent base in the Mediterranean. The new Service Center at Port Tarraco has a workshop, meeting rooms and spare parts, and it is open to any yacht, not only Lürssen builds.
Lürssen has opened a Service Center at Port Tarraco in Tarragona, Spain. It gives large motor and sailing yachts a permanent port of call for service and technical support, with a workshop, meeting rooms and a spare parts supply on site.
The move follows steady demand for the Lürssen service team, which travels worldwide to look after yachts. Many of its call-outs are in the Balearics, a short run from Tarragona.
“The doors are open to everyone.”
Noel Bandholtz, Head of Services, Lürssen
A base in the Mediterranean
Captains, chief engineers and crew can now bring parts and components to Tarragona and talk through maintenance and upgrades in person with the Lürssen team and its suppliers.
“Having our own base in the Mediterranean means we can look after our fleet and any other yacht more closely.”
York Ilgner, Managing Director, Lürssen Werft Hamburg

A family yard since 1875
Lürssen is a German shipyard based in Bremen-Vegesack. Friedrich Lürssen founded it in 1875, and the family still owns it today. Its service team supports large motor and sailing yachts around the world, and Tarragona now gives that team a home port in the Mediterranean.
