Founded in 1968, INACE – Indústria Naval do Ceará Ltda. was established to serve Brazil’s growing fishing industry. From the very beginning, naval engineering has been at the core of its operations. Over more than 55 years of history, Inace has continuously expanded its technical and industrial capabilities, becoming a benchmark shipyard for demanding clients across the defense, heavy shipbuilding, offshore and yachting sectors.

The expertise gained through the construction of technically complex vessels many designed to operate under severe conditions and meet the highest reliability standards led Inace to enter the long-range yacht segment in 1987. Since then, the shipyard has built more than 45 explorer yachts, internationally recognized for their structural strength, extended range, safety and ocean-going performance, earning the trust of owners worldwide.

Built upon this solid foundation, INACE Superyachts was created as the division dedicated to the construction of world-class motor yachts. Working in partnership with internationally renowned designers, naval architects and equipment suppliers, INACE Superyachts delivers vessels that combine proven naval engineering, precise construction and classic, robust luxury, always guided by functionality, durability and a true seagoing experience.

A national reference in the construction of luxury yachts and patrol vessels, INACE is also among Brazil’s leading suppliers of offshore vessels. Its distinguishing strength lies in the combination of proprietary construction techniques, continuous technological development and a high level of customization, enabling the shipyard to meet the most specific requirements of private clients, corporations and governments in Brazil and abroad.

Headquartered in the state of Ceará and operating globally, INACE is a 100% Brazilian shipyard, recognized as a pioneer in the use of aluminum, steel and clad bar technology in shipbuilding. Throughout its history, the company has established a solid reputation in the construction of military vessels, luxury yachts, workboats, fishing vessels and offshore boats, with more than 600 vessels delivered to date.

Driven by a robust industrial infrastructure and a clear mission, INACE Superyachts designs and builds yachts that reflect the individual character of each owner, meeting the most demanding technical standards and the most meticulous expectations. From the heart of the shipyard, new projects continue to emerge engineered for long-distance passages and designed to make a lasting impression on seas around the world.
