On July 3rd, 2025, the waters of Lake Garda set the scene for the very first VanDutch Rendez-Vous — an exclusive event that brought together owners and the top management of Cantiere del Pardo, represented on this occasion by CEO Marcello Veronesi, who joined the guests on board to fully experience and share the day.
Taking center stage were six VanDutch yachts that cruised past some of the lake's most scenic locations: three VanDutch 32s, two VanDutch 40s, and one VanDutch 48 — a harmonious fleet perfectly embodying the brand's essence: minimal, refined, iconic.
The day began at the VanDutch Center Lake Garda in Moniga, where guests were welcomed with a reception and a dedicated briefing for crews and media operators.
At 11:00 AM, the VanDutch boats left the marina, setting off on a navigation that was as much a visual and emotional journey as it was a cruise. The itinerary — from Sirmione to San Felice del Benaco, passing through San Vigilio, Gardone, Salò, Manerba, and other stunning corners of the lake — framed a captivating photo and video shoot, precisely orchestrated by the media team.
Lunch was hosted at Ristorante Il Sogno in San Felice del Benaco, where guests were offered dedicated mooring. In an atmosphere that was both convivial and sophisticated, the dialogue between owners and the shipyard's top management deepened, in a shared moment of vision, values, and passion for the brand.
The VanDutch Rendez-Vous thus confirmed itself not only as an exclusive opportunity to experience the brand's philosophy up close, but also as a privileged moment of direct connection with those who, every day, choose excellence, contemporary design, and the unmistakable lifestyle that VanDutch represents.
A special thank you to Moniga Porto Nautico, our official VanDutch center on Lake Garda.
