VanDutch ® The avant-garde in Dutch yacht building
Mission
The goal was to build a fast, light weight boat with longevity and economical practicality. To achieve such a feat, the latest technologies have been used within the hull and deck design/layout/fabrication, as well as the choice in engines. The powerhouse of substance equating to the VanDutch, is attained by the structural enhancement, compromised of vacuum-injected, composite sandwich construction with Kevlar reinforcements at critical stress points. The result is a lightness yet rigid foundation that in no consequence is nimble; the definition of Van Dutch. A V-drive arrangement of the engines was chosen to induce a sharpened aft to reach the point of the VanDutchs center of gravity, optimizing speed and reducing fuel consumption.
