The origins of the word ‘yacht’ Due to its relationship with water, shipbuilding has played a major role in the Dutch economy for centuries. In the Golden Age of the 1600 and 1700s, Holland’s large fleet of wooden ships dominated the oceans. It was at this time that wealthy residents started having their own ‘jacht’ built – the Dutch word for pleasure boat from which the international term ‘yacht’ is derived. Yachting literally and metaphorically had its origin in the Netherlands.

a boost to all the qualities on which Steeler Yachts focuses: fuel consumption, spaciousness, comfort and seaworthiness. Fuel consumption The steep bow, with the spray rail placed well above the waterline, reduces the bow wake to virtually zero at all speeds. The significant decrease leads to a further reduction in fuel consumption, as well as to substantially less spray. Space and comfort space in the foreship. In the S-line range, this translates into comfortable indoor areas, especially NG50S

for sleeping. The high position of the spray rail eliminates the usual noise of waves, eliminating a nuisance that commonly affects forward cabins. Seaworthiness The high flare of the bow protects against water flooding the foredeck in rough seas. The combination of a steep yet flared bow allows for a whole new level of safe, efficient and comfortable cruising.
