Icon Yachts
ICON Yachts is a relatively new name amongst luxury yacht builders.
The company is based in Holland and offers customized superyachts built on a pre-determined, technically optimized and operational platform giving almost endless customizable possibilities.
Unfortunately, Icon Yachts went bankrupt in early 2014, after severe losses in 2012 and 2013.
Who Owns Icon Yachts?
The company was purchased for EUR 415.000 by the Russian billionaire Alexander Mazanov. He also bought the yacht Icon.
Mazanov was a shareholder at the – now-bankrupt – Transport Bank in Moscow.
Owner
The yacht’s owner is Martin Bouygues. Martin’s wife Melissa Bouygues was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Which may explain the yacht’s name...
