New CEO at Bavaria Yachts

Marc Diening is to succeed Michael Müller as CEO of Bavaria Yachts.

Diening joins Bavaria Yachts from fire protection specialist Magirus, where he has been CEO for over five years. Previously, he spent over ten years in a management position at Bombardier and worked as a consultant for well-known companies such as Knorr-Bremse and Deutsche Bahn.

“We are thrilled to welcome Marc Diening on board at Bavaria Yachts,” says Kai Brandes, managing partner of Capital Management Partners which owns Bavaria Yachts. “With his proven record of success in sustainable development of companies and his personal qualities, we are certain that Marc Diening is the right person and has the consistency required to continue the course Bavaria has mapped out and to lead us into the next chapter of new products and solid growth with his own accents. Marc Diening has been an enthusiastic sailor since he was young and knows the yachting branch extremely well.”

The handover is planned for August 1st. Müller, who took on management of Bavaria Yachts in 2019, will now be moving to the advisory board at his own request.
