About
About Lion Yachting
An independent, practical and international approach to boating.
An independent marine company
Lion Yachting is an independent marine company based in Port Camargue, in the south of France.
We support boat owners, buyers, shipyards, manufacturers and marine-industry partners with vessel management, decision-making and the development of specialist boating projects.
Our role is to make projects clearer, smoother and easier to control: understanding the objectives, structuring the process, selecting the right specialists, coordinating execution and protecting the client’s interests.
Boating from the client’s perspective
A boat or marine project quickly involves many different areas: technical work, financing, insurance, regulations, logistics, marketing, maintenance and operation.
Lion Yachting acts as a single point of contact, connecting these subjects while maintaining an overall view of the project.
We do not impose a standard solution. Every assignment is defined around the vessel, its intended use, its owner and the required outcome.
Experience built in the field
Our experience covers a broad range of environments: sailing and motor yachts, monohulls and catamarans, inland craft, classic and neo-retro boats, charter management, private charter, brokerage, refit, delivery, owner familiarisation and commercial development for shipyards and marine brands.
This diversity allows us to assess a project as a whole, rather than reducing a boat to a transaction or an isolated technical intervention.
Marcin Kupiec, founder
Lion Yachting was founded and is managed by Marcin Kupiec.
Originally from Poland and based in France for more than thirteen years, he has developed his career across boating, vessel management, sales, consultancy, project coordination and international business development.
He works in French, English and Polish, and regularly coordinates between owners, shipyards and partners from different countries.
His approach combines practical experience, direct communication and a commitment to realistic solutions aligned with the client’s priorities.
Two client groups, two ways of working
Professionals
Shipyards, brands, investors and operators: business development, representation, floating projects, fleets and operations.

Understand
We begin with the vessel, the project, the real constraints and the client’s objectives.
Structure
We clarify priorities, responsibilities, budget, timing and decision stages.

We prioritise clear communication, useful reporting and documented decisions.
Protect the client’s interests
Our responsibility is to maintain an independent overview and seek the most coherent solution for the project.
Our commitments
Independence
We assess solutions according to their relevance to the client, rather than applying a predetermined formula.
Practical thinking
Recommendations must remain workable under the real conditions of the project.
Transparency
Roles, costs, limitations and decisions should be understood by all parties.
Tailored solutions
Every boat, owner and operating programme requires an appropriate structure.
Long-term perspective
We aim to protect the vessel’s value, usability and overall coherence beyond the immediate assignment.
Local presence, international network
Based in Port Camargue, Lion Yachting operates across the south of France and supports projects throughout France, Europe and internationally.
Our network includes shipyards, manufacturers, surveyors, technicians, brokers, transport specialists, crew and commercial partners.
This combination of local presence and international experience keeps us close to operational reality while giving each project access to the most appropriate solutions.
