He also held a key commercial position at Greenline Yachts, a pioneer in hybrid and eco-friendly propulsion systems. There, Raumland helped drive international sales growth and positioned the brand as a leader in the sustainable yachting segment—an area of growing relevance to the next generation of yacht owners.

Since joining Lürssen as Head of Sales, Raumland has led several successful custom yacht projects and played a central role in client acquisition, brokerage relations, and long-term business development.

Easing into New Leadership

As he steps into his new role, Raumland will collaborate closely with Michael Breman, one of the most recognized figures in Lürssen’s sales history. Their collaboration is designed to ensure a seamless transition and to maintain the company’s high standards in client relations, continuity, and strategic vision.

“Working alongside Michael, who has been a pillar of Lürssen’s client interface for decades, is both a privilege and a tremendous learning opportunity,” Raumland noted. “I’m committed to preserving the personal approach and trusted relationships that define the Lürssen experience.”

A Legacy of Icons: Lürssen’s Unforgettable Superyachts
