    Nordhavn`s new brand Lanzarote being built in China is a luxury yacht in direct competition to Euro brands like Princess etc.
    Its a tough market so will be interesting to see how it progresses, the 1st boat seems to be set out for the far east market with a gaming table included.

    Lanzarote (pronounced: [lanθaˈɾote] or [lansaˈɾote]), a Spanish island, is the easternmost of the autonomous Canary Islands, in the Atlantic Ocean, approximately 125 km off the coast of Africa and 1,000 km from the Iberian Peninsula. Covering 845.9 km2, it stands as the fourth largest of the islands. The first recorded name for the island, given by Angelino Dulcert, was Insula de Lanzarotus Marocelus, after the Genoese navigator Lancelotto Malocello, from which the modern name is derived. The island's name in the native language was Titerro(y)gatra, which may mean "the red mountains".
