Featured Section: Why Consider Perulla Boats

We’re proud to highlight Perulla as one of our flagship brands. Perulla is innovating in yacht design by embracing advanced materials and bold engineering choices:

  • The company is led by Vladimir Gusev, whose background blends hands-on construction roots and design ambition.
  • One of Perulla’s breakthroughs is its use of polyethylene hull construction - a departure from traditional fiberglass or composite boats. While unconventional, this material offers advantages in robustness, impact resistance, and longevity when properly engineered.
  • To address issues such as warping and aesthetic finish when welding polyethylene, Perulla developed novel welding standards (T-joint, double-sided extruder welding) and painting techniques to yield superior results.
  • These innovations position Perulla to offer yachts that are not just durable but also visually compelling, with the aim of blending performance, style, and lower lifecycle upkeep.

By featuring Perulla, we aim to give you a window into what’s possible when fresh thinking meets boating tradition.
