Established in 1985 by Nico Claasen, our yard typifies the unique benefits that have made the Dutch yachtbuilding industry a global phenomenon. From the outset our goal was to combine the traditional Dutch characteristics of workmanship and dedication to perfection with a constant willingness to incorporate new technologies.
The Claasen success story has also been driven by our ability to offer a truly customised approach to boatbuilding. This is hugely appreciated by the growing number of proud Claasen owners, each of whom has been able to incorporate their own tastes and preferences into their yacht.
At Claasen we build and refit sailing yachts of the highest calibre. Our location close to Amsterdam is ideal for owners and their representatives. It also means we are at the heart of the legendary Dutch marine equipment industry. By working with leading specialists in the many disciplines that make up a first class superyacht, you are assured f the finest possible quality. In addition to these suppliers, we also work with several premium business partners.
Our craftsmen, engineers and technicians are meticulous in the application of their skills and take pride in their inventiveness. The maritime works of art that leave the Claasen yard are ready to take you across the world’s oceans in total comfort and safety.
