Projects: Van Der Heijden 2400 Superior, Van Der Heijden 3300 Superior

Dutch boat builder Van Der Heijden continues its recent strategy of expanding sizes with two new projects which put it into the Super Yacht World. Pictured above is the 2400 Superior project currently under construction in the Netherlands. This second Superior shows similar looks to the smaller 2000 model, and will be built to the same methods of a steel hull, and an alloy super structure. Project weight is an estimated 48 tons, which is light considering that this is less to a similar sized and powered glass fibre yacht. The 2400 Superior will also feature another distinction offering five guest cabins, and a single two person crew cabin aft. Not bad for a pocket Super Yacht just measuring 24 metres, and thanks to its hull length of less to this can be driven with a standard Yacht Master licence. Distinction is also shown in the second in size VIP cabin located aft. The 2400 Superior follows again the smaller 2000 sister in hull design and engines with a similar hard chine shape below waterline, and twin 825hp of power. Estimated speeds are of 18 knots of max. The project of the 3300 Superior continues Van Der Heijden further size expansion into the Super Yacht market. As it can be seen in the rendering this project continues the modern looks of the Superior range. The 3300 Superior will also feature two and a half decks, featuring a comfortable raised pilot station on top of things, this allowing for an extension of the main deck for entertainment purposes. No speeds, power options, or layout descriptions have been communicated so far.

New Model: Van Der Heijden 2000 Superior

Van Der Heijden presents the new 2000 Superior which is also the first in a new range, adding to the other four within this Dutch builder. The Superior will be an interesting challenge from Holland to other med looking yachts, and the 2000 is the first twenty metre model putting this challenge. Van Der Heijden should follow it soon with other Superior models and a 2400 is already in construction, and will be followed later on by a 27 and a 33 meters which are waiting for a unique owner on the drawing board. The new Superior series meets also the growing demand outside of Holland for a steel yacht with flybridge, and a hard chine hull. Impressive numbers are a constant feature in the 2000 Superior from its low weight for a steel construction of 38 tons, and a good performance achieving a top speed of 30 knots with twin 825hp Iveco engines. The 2000 as expected from a steel construction is also a custom built and hull one had a four double cabin with three shower heads layout. The owner cabin is located to aft. Galley is on the main deck looking to aft, and here you also have a large C-shaped relaxing sofa, and dining C-shaped table to fore. The flybridge also shows Mediterranean or sunny climates thinking thanks to its extended design.
