1. ZEYDON MOVED INTO ITS NEW PRODUCTION FACILITY

In view of continuous improvement and to be prepared for expansion, Zeydon moved into its new production facility in Arendonk (Belgium) last August. The new production hall is 5.000 square meter and attached to it is a new 700 square meter office building. The total available shipyard space is now more than 30.000 square meter. State-of-the-art machinery, including a 24 meter long spraybooth and curing oven are now operational and will contribute to the quality of the Z60's under construction.

These significant and continued investments are creating a strong future for our company, our employees and our customers. It also reinforces our strong foundations.

The new facility in Arendonk allows Zeydon to secure and increase the production capacity, ensures flexible and fast reactions to market demands, guarantees the quality of our yachts and allows an intensified contact with the customers.

2. Z60 SELECTED AMONG 100 MOST BEAUTIFUL OBJECTS OF 2007

Last October 2007, the Zeydon Z60 was selected among the 100 world's most beautiful architectural objects by AD Magazine.

The Z60 also received nice coverage in the Belgium and Luxembourg edition of the BMW Magazine last September.

Other articles were published in Yacht, EOS Magazine, Boat International, Navegar and The World Of Yachts and Boats. All articles are available on the Zeydon Website

3. ZEYDON 1 INTO FINISHING STAGE AND ZEYDON 2 WELL ON SCHEDULE

During the summer months we had to organize the complete move of the shipyard to Arendonk, and we must admit that we lost some precious production time on the first yacht. The positive side, however, is that we are now much better located and equipped in order to organize the production of the Zeydon’s over the coming years.

Today, the first Zeydon Z60 is already equipped with the full interior and we are now working very hard to incorporate all the techniques on board. The first Z60 is due to be splashed in the first half of 2008.

The production of the second yacht has advanced on schedule though. Most structural composite work is completed and hull, stringers and bulkheads are almost ready to be assembled.
