Elan Marine
Company Profile
Since 1949 ELAN has been engaged in the production of marine orientated craft beginning with making of boats, kayaks, canoes, scullers that were made out of waterproof wooden slabs which saw its biggest success in the years of 1950 to 1952. In the following six years, Elan redirected its manufacturing into the production of folding rubberized kayaks. In 1957 and 1958, having received orders from America, Elan made approximately 700 yachts and other craft, bearing the name of Olympia. In 1962 began the production of boats from reinforced polyester. The material that at that time meant a revolutionary world innovation in the construction of yachts. The first polyester model was a 3.5 metre-long boat for calm waters. It was made in three variants: Neptun 1, Neptun 2 and Fortuna. In the first year of production over 100 such boats were made and exported to Sweden. Scandinavian design series of boats followed: marked 011, 013 and 015, which had a very wide stern and relatively high freeboard. Being very stable and keeping their direction well, they were suitable for extreme weather conditions. Due to their quality and Lloyd’s Certificate, they were of interest to more demanding buyers. In the 70’s boats by the name of Turist were being manufactured. Models: T 240, 375, 400, 410, 480, 495 and finally 401. In fact, out of all the motor boats they were the most sucessfully marketed craft. At the height of its manufacture up to 600 of them were made, and over 10.000 during the 27 years of their existence. Among the motor boats that emerged in the period from the 70’s to the 90’s, the following models deserve mentioning: Elan 600 cabin, Elan 23 Walkaround and the largest yet, the 11-metre Elan 35 Power that emerged in 1988. The motor individual owners and also the police. More than 300 boats models T410, E-15c/c, Pasara, GT495F, E-17c/c, E18c/c, E-18 cabin, E20 c/c and 22FL were manufactured and sold annualy until the end of the production of smaller boats in 2003. The same year, in line with our vision to become one of the world’s major boat builders, we decided to expand our brand portfolio and to strenghten our position on the market of the motor yachts. In order to fulfill that vision, the Power range was developed. The first boat in the range is the Elan Power 35 and two years later introduced Elan Power 42, both designed by world-famous yacht designer Tony Castro.Product Range
