Centuries of craftsmanship

The Netherlands has a long tradition in yacht building and cargo vessels. You will find the best yards in the world in the Netherlands. The boatbuilding skills are passed on from generation to generation. West-Friesland, the area where VMG Yachtbuilders is firmly rooted, has been a centre for yacht building for many decades. Strong family traditions, the ambition to be the best in the trade and a powerful work ethos characterize the success of this region.

Reliability

Building a new boat, working on a refit or doing a routine maintenance project: boats will be boats and, inevitably, there will be bumps in the road.

You want a yard that is reliable, works on time, delivers what is promised and communicates promptly when things don’t go according to plan. We take pride in our reliability and work hard to involve you every step of the way.

Flexibility

You have carefully considered your dream yacht, but when you see it taking shape before your eyes, things may look different than you envisioned it.

We understand that, in the course of the building stages, your ideas evolve which may lead to design changes. Our team will listen to your new plans and adjust the process accordingly.

Availability and capacity

You want the best craftsmen to work on your boat. Through our innovative set-up, we can make the right highly skilled staff available for your project in every phase: from building the hull and finishing the interior to maintenance projects and after sales projects. In our three production facilities we have the right equipment to work fast and efficient. Come and have a look; we are happy to show you around.

Knowledge and experience

Albeit a maintenance project, a refit or a brand new yacht: you have ideas about how you want it done. We listen carefully to your ideas and will pair them with our knowledge and experience to create the best solutions. Innovation starts with the exchange of ideas and mixed with skill and expertise it leads to great results.

When heritage meets modern craftsmanship

Motor Yachts

Established in 1990 as a yard that built traditional yachts, Holland Jachtbouw has emerged as one of the world’s most renowned shipyards for newly built superyachts and refits of yachts over 90 feet. Over the course of three decades, Holland Jachtbouw has built several award winning yachts including Athos, the largest two-mast schooner in history, as well as two unique J Class yachts Rainbow and Topaz.

Anjilis (former Cassiopeia)

Craftsmanship

Our newly built yachts and refits are carried out with the utmost precision, passion for detail and love for craftsmanship. Carefully-selected, high-quality materials are used by a team of highly skilled craftsmen in all aspects of yachtbuilding.

Master craftsmanship. Naturally selected elements, engineering precision and the latest technologies play their part to achieve the perfect result.

Founded in the early 1990s, Holland Jachtbouw will pursue to build its exceptional reputation from her brand-new facility with a large production capacity in Enkhuizen. Working with top naval architects worldwide, the build and project management teams continue to produce a world class product, using leading suppliers and subcontractors from the heart of the Dutch yachting industry.

Windrose of Amsterdam

When Chris Gongriep wanted to finish his 13-metre wooden barge under his own management in 1990, little did he know that the shipyard he founded for this purpose, De Hemmes , would be the start of a bright future as a world-renowned superyacht builder.

While customers continued to request well-known Lemsteraken , Chris’ ambition grew into building the ideal charter yacht. After years of extensive study, Sapphire was built in 1996, a classic 31-metre sailing yacht. This was the start for Holland Jachtbouw and the transition to aluminium sailing and motor yachts was made.

Holland Jachtbouw grew into a successful yard with an extensive delivery program for superyachts up to 130 feet. The portfolio of more than thirty prestigious classic and modern superyachts in various categories demonstrate the craftsmanship and unlimited possibilities of the yard.

Athos , Topaz and Rainbow are just a few examples of dreams becoming reality; each demonstrating the extreme precision, passion for detail and love of craftsmanship with which they are built. Only dedicated specialists with decades of experience can achieve the quality of finish in new construction as well as refits and restorations. It is this quality, expertise and love for the profession that attracted the international clientele to Holland Jachtbouw.

Chris passed away in 2016 and at the request of his heirs, VMG Yachtbuilders continues the Holland Jachtbouw legacy with great respect for its founder. Its legacy is a fitting addition to VMG’s portfolio, which is in the same segment up to about 90 feet. Holland Jachtbouw is therefore moving to Enkhuizen, the epicenter of traditional yacht building and where the love and passion for craftsmanship is passed on from generation to generation.

Like a Phoenix rising from its ashes, Holland Jachtbouw will build the next generation of future classics at its new state-of-the-art location.

• Introduction

The Enksail Orion not only has the appearance of a fast ship, and in fact she is. The hull is made entirely of aluminium. With a straight bow it is a modern ship.

Optionally, the ship can be equipped with a centreboard keel, creating a variable draught.

Our Enksails are semi-custom. This means that you can leave your mark in terms of styling and layout. The interior can be tailored to your wishes, adjusted to the number of people abourd and where you’ll be sailing. As long as it fits inside the yacht, the possibilities are limitless. If you have an Enksail built with us, you are assured of a yacht of very good quality that will meet your personal wishes.
