Beach House in Dana Point Becomes Yacht Brokerage

As Laguna Niguel Patch reported last year, the Beach House restauraunt at Dana Point harbor, once a landmark for years was shut down. In its place, a yacht brokerage announced it would be moving in. 

Last week Pacific Asian Enterprises, Inc., builders of Nordhavn yachts, began refurbishment of the iconic 9,000-square-foot Dana Point building that will serve as the company’s new world headquarters. The new state-of-the-art facility will house sales, project management, engineering, accounting, commissioning and shipping/receiving, which currently is spread out amongst three separate locations. Unifying all the departments into one space has been a long-term goal of P.A.E. ownership.

“Communications and efficiency will vastly improve by having the entire company together,” said P.A.E. president and owner Dan Streech. “And this will lead to a better customer experience for visiting clients.”

Last year P.A.E. was awarded a 30-year-lease of the site of the former Beach House restaurant, located just down the street from the current site of Nordhavn’s Orange County-based southwest sales office and has spent the past several months designing and reconfiguring the building to include new offices for staff, owner/guest office suites, a conference and showroom and a gallery dedicated to the history of P.A.E. and the Dana Point waterfront.

Production will continue to take place at P.A.E.’s two partner factories, Ta Shing Yacht Building Co. in Taiwan and South Coast Marine in China.

Work is scheduled to continue throughout the summer and Streech said he is hopeful the staff can move into its new offices in November.
