Good work, good rest, good fun
Despite Lürssen’s reputation for being obsessed with quality and engineering excellence, we firmly believe that neglecting the fun factor would be a big mistake. After all, yachting is all about the pleasure and joy of luxury travel at sea, and only well rested, satisfied and loyal crew members can ensure the perfect atmosphere on board at all times.

We provide not only practical assistance, but also recreational activities that create memorable moments. Lürssen fun competitions like our rowing regatta – see video below – have become special favourites among crews from all over the world.
The Lürssen rowing regatta
Our rowing regatta is a big favourite. The fittest and fastest team takes possession of the coveted trophy, until it’s time to pass it on to the next winner. The race has become legendary for its thrills and spills!
The Lürssen Bossel tour
Each January, we invite our guests to venture out into the snow for a traditional winter ball-throwing sport: the Bossel tour. It’s always a fun and heartwarming experience of northern Germany’s famous customs and hospitality.
The Lürssen Mini-Cupper Regatta
Small is beautiful: our mini-cupper regatta is a great opportunity to demonstrate your mastery of the rules of the sea. Even seasoned mariners will be surprised at the treachery of the winds and currents – when piloting a 1–2-meter sailboat.
