As head of the design department at Galeon Yachts in Gdansk, Poland, Maciej Klonecki has always enjoyed the design and creative process.
As a boy, Maciej’s love of sailing inspired his desire to build yachts. While studying Ocean Engineering & Ship Technology at the Gdansk University of Technology, he set his sights on working for Galeon Yachts. Galeon, a leading yacht manufacturer in Europe, had a reputation as a dynamic, globally minded company, ever evolving and a coveted place to work.
After multiple times pursuing a chance to join the team, persistence paid off in 2003 when Maciej came aboard as a member of the design department to support efforts for all Galeon models; calculating structures, installations and vessel stability.
In 2017, Maciej was promoted to lead the twenty person design team where he remains today overseeing all development and management aspects of the company’s designs and creative output. To assure that every yacht maintains the highest quality and finest attention to detail, the team utilizes cutting-edge management and state of the art production systems.
