Extending the lifespan of sailing yachts,
our commitment for nearly 40 years.
A family-owned boatyard on a human scale, led by Alexia and François Lesineau, our boatyard CNVP has been dedicated since 1988 to excellence in yacht restoration and complete refits of premium blue-water sailing yachts.
Owners from all over the world entrust their yachts to CNVP. Many of these vessels are 40 or even 50 years old and undergo comprehensive restorations to return them to their original condition. It is a meaningful way to extend both the lifespan of these yachts and the dreams of their owners.
Our clients share a deep attachment to their boats and the stories they carry. Each project is an opportunity to preserve a yacht’s heritage while preparing it for many more years at sea.
Our workshops are located in the nautical technical area, at the heart of La Rochelle’s historic Vieux-Port.
The boatyard’s team, made up of exceptional craftsmen and experienced sailors, brings its technical expertise to the service of a highly demanding French and international clientele.
Whether reconfiguring interior layouts, integrating new equipment, or tailoring bespoke finishes, every project presents a new challenge that inspires these passionate artisans. The yard is committed to preserving the heritage of each builder and remaining true to the yacht’s original identity, while offering owners the latest innovations to combine elegance, comfort, and performance.
Thanks to this highly personalized and bespoke approach, every yacht leaves CNVP enriched with a distinctive character and renewed soul.
