Van der Valk Yachts
Founded in 1967 by passionate yachtsman Wim van der Valk, Van der Valk Shipyard has built a reputation for craftsmanship and innovation in the Netherlands. With more than 50 years of experience, this family-owned shipyard has evolved from building compact cruisers to delivering world-class semi-custom and custom motor yachts up to 38 meters.
Van der Valk specializes in building fully customized steel and aluminum yachts, constructed entirely in-house to ensure meticulous attention to detail and unmatched quality. Each yacht is tailored to the owner’s vision, offering flexibility in layout, propulsion, and onboard features to create a truly one-of-a-kind vessel.
The yard has produced over 100 yachts, including the acclaimed “The Next Episode,” an 89-foot Continental III designed by Guido de Groot. Another milestone was “Santa Maria T,” the world’s first yacht fitted with a two-axis fin anti-roll damping system, showcasing Van der Valk’s commitment to pioneering solutions.
Van der Valk’s in-house R&D team collaborates with leading designers and engineers to integrate the latest technology—from hybrid propulsion to advanced hull design.
