About Leonardo Yachts

Leonardo Yachts was founded by two brothers, Steven & Melle Boersma. Located at the heart of the premium Dutch yacht building industry in the Northern part of the Netherlands.

In 2011 the Eagle 44 was nominated as European boat of the year at "Special boats" category. Many boats have been build and delivered worldwide. From Australia to North America. "Our dream is to build beautiful daysailers that make heads turn. Our staff is committed to support our customers during the ownership of an Eagle as much as possible. We work with leading designers and maintain long-term relationships with our partners", Leonardo Yachts.

Meet the models below!

Eagle 38

Leonardo Yachts' mission with the Eagle 38: to build the ultimate daysailer. With every imaginable luxury and comfort and with excellent sailing characteristics. Exploring the coastline with the Eagle 38 is an absolute joy. The Eagle is a fast daysailer such as the classic J-class lines but with a modern keel and rudder shape. Her long overhangs make her very elegant.

Eagle 44

The Eagle 44 is designed by Gerard Dykstra & Partners where the designers have reaped enormous experience with recent J-class projects such as Hanuman and Rainbow. And the lines plan is equally inspired by other famous racing J's of the 1930's. The use of modern materials and a modern keel shape has resulted in a beautiful daysailer with an enormous cockpit. Practical functionality and stylish design meet throughout the Eagle 44, with a fine balance between the various materials, white panels, mahogany, teak, stainless steel and luxury fabrics.

Eagle 54

In 2017 the Eagle 54 was introduced. The 54 is designed in close cooperation with Hoek design and will offer the same spacious cockpit as the Eagle 44, but where the Eagle 44 is a true daysailer, the 54 will provide more for a longer stay onboard.

Needless to say that with size comes more speed and comfort. As you would expect from Leonardo Yachts there are no compromises on beauty and elegance. The boat is designed with shorthanded cruising in mind.
