Van der Valk 25.5m new Flybridge

by Van der Valk Shipyard 6 Sep 2020 07:12 PDT

Modern looks, amazing views

The Modern Flybridge design is designed by Cor D. Rover to offer a fresh take on this very successful series. This 25,50-metre model will be built in aluminium and set new standards in terms of ease of operation and even single-handed cruising.

The Modern Flybridge will have triple Volvo Penta IPS1050 engines and fully epitomise the quality, craftsmanship and aesthetic flair for which all Van der Valk yachts are renowned.

Among the various striking elements are the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, which will offer you extraordinary panoramas of the outside world. An impressively spacious interior includes four double cabins, four bathrooms and crew quarters if required.

The contemporary life

There are many options available for the design and layout of the interior. A contemporary style with a cosy ambience is assured by a choice of three colour palettes: Cosy Cognac, Cyan Life and Sensation White. Replacing a formal dining table with a movable high-low table/bar adds to the spacious feel of the lounge, while the window mullions can be finished in black or high-gloss stainless steel. As almost all furniture is loose, ideas for the layout are welcomed.

Range & Performance

This is the expected performance on basis of a sister vessel: Engines: 3x Volvo Penta IPS-1050 EVC / D13B-G MP 588 kW (800 HP) @ 2.300 rpm Fuel capacity: 10.000 ltr (range is based on 90% of the capacity for safety precautions).
