SAIL THE WORLD.
FEEL AT HOME.

At 28m and built in aluminium for a serial boater, the first LeVen model is a lesson in combining seakeeping, speed and comfort. Built in the Netherlands at the Van der Valk shipyard, the Bahamas-ready yacht (with a shallow draft of just 1.3m) is the first known private yacht to implement Voith’s linear jet propulsion system, not to mention Dutch design studio Vripack’s innovative slide hull.

For many owners, the concept of enjoying a ‘home at sea’ is what drives their passion for yachting. But when industry standards and regulatory constraints come into play that simple vision is often lost. Not so for the owner of Vripack’s new 55m yacht, whose desire to use his boat as a family apartment became the founding principle of the entire design.

To date there have been only nine successful passages by superyacht, and five of these were made on yachts designed by Vripack. In fact, Vripack designed the first superyacht to ever make the crossing.
