MB92 La Ciotat

MB92 La Ciotat is the Provence facility of the MB92 Group, an international specialist in the refit and maintenance of large yachts. The shipyard sits in the heart of La Ciotat, between the Calanques National Park and the Mediterranean coastline, close to Marseille international airport and to the main French Riviera cruising grounds. It is part of La Ciotat Shipyards, whose entrances are staffed and monitored 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Dry docking capacity covers the full range of large vessels. La Grande Forme, a dry dock measuring 200 by 60 metres and around 12,000 square metres, is fitted with shore connections and gantry cranes, with the potential to be extended to 300 metres. A 4,300-tonne shiplift can accommodate up to six yachts of 115 metres LOA, with haul-out completed in under three hours, and a 2,000-tonne syncrolift completes the set-up. The Origins facility is dedicated to the refit of yachts up to 300 tonnes displacement. The site offers more than 1,600 metres of berthing and a 14,000 square metre hard working area.

The yard handles general works, from scheduled surveys to individual repairs, as well as major refits, the group having delivered more than 3,000 projects on yachts from 30 metres LOA upwards. Painting is served by a 50-metre shed. Interiors, project management and technical office teams support every project from brief to delivery, alongside the Refit for the Future programme dedicated to improving the sustainability and the value of each vessel.

Yachts alongside or ashore benefit from DSL and fibre connections, fresh water, grey water discharge, compressed air, air conditioning, a mobile crane, storage areas and shore power of up to 400V / 800kW and 6kV / 1,800kW, together with a fire prevention system. A crew lounge and dedicated customer care complete the welcome given to crews.

Safety and sustainability shape the way the site operates: controlled access, procedures aligned with the highest standards, water treatment, waste recycling and cleaning centres, and electric vehicle charging points.
