Royal Dutch Shipyards
The Best of Feadship
Why Choose Feadship
Two Royal Shipyards
The Royal Van Lent yard dates back to 1949 and its yachts (that were the first to be built of steel, then aluminium) were famous as the winners of speed contests in the 1920s. The Royal De Vries Shipyard was founded by Chris De Vries in 1906 and the two joined to become Feadship - the First Export Association of Dutch Shipbuilders – in 1949.

Royal Recognition on Their Centenary
Because the Feadship quality and expertise has the royal seal of approval. If you’re looking for Dutch quality, then a Feadship yacht is about as Dutch as it gets. On their centenary, both Feadship yards were awarded the right to be called ‘Koninklijke,’ meaning Royal in Dutch. This rare honour in the Netherlands is only given to companies that can meet very strict criteria, and it marks them as companies of national importance.
