Steeler presents its new World wide web showroom. Steeler is a Dutch builder from Steenwijk, founded by Hans Webbink in 2010. Coming from executive roles at Royal Dutch Shell and Philips, Hans will enter the boating industry as he founds Antaris boats in 2001 focusing on classic looking motorised day sloops and cruisers. Hans will merge Antaris with Maril and Makma to form Aquatec Industries in 2008, and will sell his share in 2010. In that year he will start Steeler, with the idea being to be an alternative to cost and design to that of production fiberglass yachts, but built in custom or semi-custom, steel or aluminium, and with displacement, semi displacement, and planning hull shapes. The first Steeler yacht the Survey 55 as designed by Vripack and built in steel will arrive at the end of 2011, and is followed by the NG43 the following year. In 2014 Steeler shows its innovative spirit and helped by Vripack will present the ground breaking Panorama Flat Floor 46, and also debuts the day runabout Bronson 36 Islander with flipping bulk heads which expand the aft deck at anchor. A year later to this Steeler also presents the alloy build planning hull NG43S. With its innovative products Steeler took immediate attention to the media, winning the European Boat of the Year award to date for three times; 2015, 2016, and 2019. On first September 2024 Steeler also acquired bankrupted yacht builder Holterman and its facilities in Meppel, with the Holterman range now renamed as Steeler Ace. Currently Steeler offers seventeen models, all made to order and divided into six ranges; Ocean Explorer, Enigma, S-Line Long Range, Ace, Bronson, and S-Line with these split in Displacement and Performance type yachts. Currently Steeler starts its range with the Bronson 50, to the just launched Ocean Explorer 85, which entered it into 24 meter plus super yacht size.
