Introducing the new VanDutch 75 - Mediterranean luxury and unmistakable identity
by VanDutch 12 Sep 04:14 NZST
With the new VanDutch 75 Cantiere del Pardo marks a new chapter for the legendary brand, redefining its design language with a contemporary Mediterranean flair.
The aim is clear: to evolve the unmistakable VanDutch identity into a more sophisticated expression, without losing the brand's original spirit. The result is a yacht that blends vision with coherence, destined to set the tone for the future of the VanDutch fleet.
The project retains the iconic exterior styling that made VanDutch Yachts a global benchmark in the luxury open segment: low-slung profile, clean geometry, and elegantly balanced proportions now enriched with refined technical details that double as integrated design features. A timeless aesthetic, revisited with purposeful upgrades that enhance both function and form.
Exterior design: balancing heritage and innovation
The new VanDutch 75 is the result of a meticulous evolution, involving every detail, starting with the exterior areas, which have been completely redesigned to offer new levels of comfort and practicality. The cockpit, spanning 45 square meters, provides exceptional space for socializing and outdoor living. It features two large opposing sofas and a pair of convertible tables arranged symmetrically, together accommodating up to ten guests. The new custom-designed seats, with ribbed upholstery inspired by vintage sports cars, echo the interior style and reinforce the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces, underlining a unified and coherent design vision. Completing the outdoor equipment is a Fenix galley top, fully integrated and equipped with a barbecue, two burners, refrigerator, and ice-maker designed to ensure maximum ease of use during extended stays on board.
Among the noteworthy new features is the carbon fiber Hard-Top, designed to protect the lounge area while preserving the harmony of the yacht's lines. Its seamless integration into the boat's profile avoids excessive vertical volume and helps maintain the minimalist and dynamic aesthetic that defines the VanDutch identity.
From a technical and functional standpoint, the VanDutch 75 introduces several innovative solutions: from the integrated door in the windshield, allowing direct and easy access from the cockpit to the bow, to the "invisible" anchor, which elegantly emerges from the hull, eliminating clutter and preserving the clean design. All components are brand-new and made entirely of high-grade stainless steel, a choice that reflects the shipyard's design philosophy, with no compromises, not even on the smallest details.
Another distinctive element is the natural teak deck, offered for the first time with white caulking, for a refined and contemporary aesthetic that perfectly aligns with the brand's spirit.
While classified as an open yacht, the VanDutch 75 incorporates features typically found in cruising vessels, enhancing its uniqueness and versatility: from the up & down swim platform to the tender garage with an integrated launch and recovery system, all supported by a 4,000-liter fuel capacity ideal for long-range navigation. Everything is complemented by intelligent space optimization and a wide range of customization options, ensuring comfort and livability at the highest level.
Interior vision by BurdissoCapponi Yachts&Design
The newly updated interiors are the work of BurdissoCapponi Yachts&Design, which brings a fresh approach marked by refined materials, bold contrasts, and sophisticated textures. Their design introduces a softer visual language while preserving the clean lines that define the VanDutch aesthetic.
At Cannes, the VanDutch 75 will make its world debut in the "Cool" configuration: a bright, contemporary version featuring pearl burl veneers, matte Slate Black wood accents, beige suede upholstery, and moon-toned Econyl flooring. A second variant, called "Smooth", will also be available, distinguished by warmer, enveloping tones and centered around "Fulvo" mahogany, adding richness and a welcoming ambiance.
The yacht on display will feature the standard layout, striking a perfect balance between elegance and functionality with a three-cabin configuration designed for maximum comfort in a setting of discreet luxury. The night area is primarily located aft, with the owner's suite to starboard and a twin guest cabin to port, both with en-suite heads featuring premium finishes and generous volumes for enhanced privacy and comfort. Forward, completely separate from the guest quarters, is the VIP cabin, bright and spacious, with a dual-access bathroom that also serves as a day head for the main living area. At the heart of onboard life is a generous open-space dinette with an American-style galley, large lounge area, and convertible table, perfect for both entertaining and relaxation. Completing the configuration is a fully independent crew cabin aft, with separate access, private facilities, and a well-equipped technical zone that ensures seamless management without interfering with guest spaces.
Signature details for a new "family identity"
The VanDutch 75 sets the tone for a new stylistic era. Several elements introduced on this model will shape the future VanDutch "family identity". Among them: the signature hull-side window that enhances the profile with a refined decorative touch; the horizontal lacquered slat ceiling panels that elegantly conceal the air conditioning system; and the custom-designed track lighting, specifically developed for marine use.
The high-end materials — such as burl veneers, dark woods, matte metals, and brushed copper —are treated with a modern, cohesive aesthetic that defines a new stylistic vocabulary to be carried forward across the VanDutch range. Reinforcing the project's customizable nature, multiple finish and palette options will be available to create a uniquely personal onboard atmosphere, tailored to the owner's lifestyle and preferences.
With its iconic styling, forward-thinking features, and advanced performance, thanks to triple Volvo Penta IPS propulsion capable of pushing the yacht up to 40 knots, the VanDutch 75 establishes itself as a true design icon, symbolizing the brand's evolution under the leadership of Cantiere del Pardo.
