Royal Huisman

Headquarters:
Vollenhove
Founded:
1884
Boat types:
Motor superyachts, Sailing superyachts

Today’s Royal Huisman blends twenty-first century technology with traditional craftsmanship. Established in 1884 for building small wooden boats, it was awarded the ‘Royal’ Warrant on its 100th anniversary. Over 140 years later, Royal Huisman builds award-winning luxury custom yachts, unrivaled in quality.

As one client noted, “You might get something that looks like a Royal Huisman yacht, but it won’t be a Royal Huisman yacht.” Passion for perfection drives the team, defining “quality” not just in their yachts, but in every aspect of customer service, care, and communication.

Home to the world’s finest superyacht building

Royal Huisman employs a team of over 350 highly motivated and competent people, from skilled craftsmen to expert concept designers, with extraordinarily diverse experience and capabilities, working at facilities for custom builds in Vollenhove.

For some years now, the shipyard facilities have been extended to the Amsterdam region. This second location serves as an addition to the existing shipyard, with a focus on Huisfit projects. The shipyard from 1884 until today: a history of investments for the future.

Experience the experience

Sailing a Royal Huisman yacht is an experience like no other, and the ultimate expression of personal freedom. Whether you’re the one at the wheel – benefitting from its performance, handling and balance in demanding conditions – or the one delighting in its finish and comfort at an idyllic anchorage.
