Bekkers Yachts
Bekkers Yachts brings superyacht standards and custom execution to the aluminum dayboat and weekender segment. Ranging from 40 to 60 feet, these motor yachts step away from mass production and fiberglass construction, targeting owners who seek uncompromising quality and distinct styling.
Award-winning superyacht designer René van der Velden shapes the design, infusing dayboats with the refined proportions, clean lines, and detailed finish usually reserved for large custom projects.
Naval architecture and structural engineering lean on trusted Dutch expertise. Studio Delta, led by Menno van Dijk, developed the naval architecture to produce a fast, stable, and seaworthy aluminum hull. Engineering office Navyk executed the structural aluminum calculations, creating a strong yet lightweight framework built to handle open-water conditions with ease.
Key figures with decades of superyacht industry experience drive the project management and construction process. Leon Bekkers created the company following years as a supplier to top Dutch and German superyacht builders, instilling a culture of exact execution, strict quality standards, and close client consultation.
Former Moonen Yachts director Emile Bilterijst serves as a key advisor, bringing valuable technical background in fast displacement hulls and large yacht construction.
By maintaining low volume and focusing on a small number of builds, Bekkers Yachts accommodates extensive client customization. Owners work directly with the team to tailor layouts, interior materials, and technical options.
