As you might know we are building power yacht named ASAN 45. We named our first luxury power yacht as ASAN45 to praise the late Mr Chung(ex-CEO of Hyundai)  for his virtue. Chung Ju-yung was born of a large impoverished peasant family, but became a billionaire and founder of Hyundai Group, at one time South Korea’s largest multinational conglomerate.

He wrote under the pen name of ASAN. His fearless and courageous willingness to the success largely affected our yacht brand name ASAN. You can find more information at the link below.

I wanna recommend you a great website where you can learn about boat related things. It’s really useful and it’s free. I didn’t know anything as to this website.  So I have wondered who made this site, where this site was born. Finally I found out some about page.

“Instructables is a web-based documentation platform where passionate people share what they do and how they do it, and learn from and collaborate with others.  The seeds of Instructables germinated at the MIT Media Lab as the future founders of Squid Labs built places to share their projects and help others.”

Wow! This useful website will help you when you want to know how to make boat fenders, how to get a free yacht, etc. So I proudly recommend this site to you. Enjoy it!
