About Fleming Yachts

Semi-custom

The pilothouse passagemaker marque founded in 1985 by Tony Fleming, former technical director of Grand Banks' builder American Marine — five semi-displacement models from the 18.5-metre Fleming 55 to the 26-metre Fleming 85, every one built by the Tung Hwa yard near Kaohsiung, Taiwan, and sold from Costa Mesa, California.

Tony Fleming was technical director of American Marine in Hong Kong, builder of the Grand Banks trawlers, from 1961 to 1983 and set up its Singapore yard; after leaving in 1983 he and his partner Anton Emmerton developed an all-new pilothouse design with the San Diego naval architect Larry Drake, chose the Tung Hwa yard near Kaohsiung in Taiwan in the summer of 1985, and began hull number one -- 50 feet at first, then the Fleming 53 and 55 from hull nine. By 1997 over a hundred 55s had been delivered, the Fleming 75 was launched in 2000, Tony's nephew Adi Shard joined in 1998 and Duncan Cowie in 2001, and the Fleming 65 of 2005 -- hull one being Tony's own VENTURE -- let him hand daily operations to his team and set off on his 'voyages of personal discovery'; by 2006, 170 55s, twelve 75s and five 65s had been delivered. The 25th anniversary fell in 2011, the 300th Fleming shipped in December 2015, the 78 Classic launched in 2017, a second yard dedicated to the F85 flagship was funded in 2021 with the first F85 launched in 2022, the F60 arrived in 2024, and in 2025 a site for a new factory was bought -- all Flemings still built by Tung Hwa.
