ABOUT GLACIER YACHTS:
On a sandy coast of Riga Golf amongst golden dunes and beautiful pine forests a Glacier Yachts brand was born. Its history takes place when Dutch designer Guido de Groot, Dutch Naval Architects Menno van Dijk and the family-owned BIC Aluminium shipyard came together and joined their experience to create a unique product. This union of highly skilled professionals managed to create motor yachts with impressive performance, uncompromising safety and outstanding design.
BIC Aluminium specialises in marine industry, building both the small and medium hulls up to 24-meter-length as well as upper aluminium structures for a wide range of applications: yachts, leisure, fishing and patrol boats. Founded in 2001. Over the past 24 years it has grown into a modern and innovative factory, employing more than 85 skilled workers and engineers.
