Yachting in our DNA 

With Holland as our home and the world as our client base, the Van Dam Nordia Shipyard has yachting in its DNA. Combining over 125 years of shipbuilding experience with the very latest innovations gives us the inspiration and enthusiasm to create first class custom yachts.

The yachtbuilding industry as a whole has changed dramatically in recent times. At Van Dam Nordia, the core values set by our ancestors of quality, safety and value for money have survived all trends. And today they are more popular than ever among our clients.

Truly custom yachts 

As a custom yachtbuilder, we translate our client’s ideals. Building a custom yacht involves far more than designing a vessel that looks the way the owners require. We have to understand their experience, their history and most importantly their personality. There has to be a dialogue between yachtsmen in order to achieve a unique blend of character, engineering and passion. The final result should feel the way the client envisaged.

Above average owners 

A testimony to the success of our approach is that typical Van Dam Nordia owners sail their yacht for an average of 12 years. Most Nordias have also made at least one circumnavigation, clocking up mileages that exceed market averages many times over.

Our yachts inspire owners to explore the oceans, giving them the confidence to go anywhere at any time. Your Van Dam Nordia won’t only look good in a magazine or in a marina. It will thrill and entertain you.
