Meridian Yacht Wins Best FLybridge Builder Award 4th Year In A Row
Meridian Yachts, a Brunswick Boat Group company, has been named as the best-selling brand of flybridge yachts in the US for the fourth year running.
According to results by Statistical Surveys Inc, Meridian captured nearly 20 per cent of the 11m-18m (35ft-60ft) flybridge yacht market in the US last year — its highest share ever. Sea Ray, Brunswick’s other major brand in this segment, took the second highest share.
“2009 was a year of significant transition for Meridian,” says Sea Ray president Rob Parmentier. “We moved all of Meridian’s production from Seattle, Washington to Brunswick facilities on the east coast of Florida. We re-started production of two existing models and added the new 541 Sedan Bridge flagship.
“We’ll continue bringing additional production online in 2010. Meridian’s current leadership and future potential were significant considerations for Brunswick when making the substantial investment to move the brand from one corner of the country to the other. We’re pleased with Meridian’s retail performance during the transition.”

Ahh, that is one SWEET looking ride!
I’m a starving American Inventor with three patents to date. One day… one day! Thanks for letting me drool today.
All I need in life is a few Million in the Bank, a Gulfstream 200, and a Meridian Yacht… yea, that’s the ticket!
That is one beautiful flybridge on the Meridian Yacht. It is easy to see why it has been named the best-selling brand for four consecutive years in a row. It puts its competitors to shame, and its sleek, smart lines should keep it ahead of the pack in years to come.
I have been a huge fan of the Sedan 441 but i must say that the Sedan 541 is like jaw dropping. No wonder this company is considered top of the line….
Amazing Boats…I need to get my hands on one like this eventually
Have always loved Sea Ray. But good job on the Brunswick group for getting Meridian to capture 20% of the flybridge yacht market.
That’s pretty significant.
