A Landmark Moment: Yeoman Marine Shipyard Launches a Next-Generation OPV

Old is Gold—and it glitters brighter with time….

Yeoman Marine Shipyard, Ratnagiri, marked a major milestone with the successful launch of its largest vessel to date—the second ship of the Indian Navy’s Next-Generation Offshore Patrol Vessel (NGOPV) class. The flawless, textbook launch stands as a proud moment in the shipyard’s journey.

This achievement reflects the skill, passion, and determination that drive Yeoman Marine Shipyard toward excellence and innovation. Built on the strong legacy of the erstwhile Bharati Shipyard and set against the Sahyadri hills, Yeoman Marine continues to be a hub of industrial growth and nation-building.

Supported by a skilled workforce, robust infrastructure, and close collaboration with the Indian Navy, Goa Shipyard Limited, IRS Class, and key partners, Yeoman Marine Shipyard remains committed to contributing meaningfully to Aatmanirbhar Bharat and India’s growing maritime strength.
