Zeelander 5 - a luxurious 15m performance cruiser with a top speed of 40 knots.
The Zeelander 5 boasts an interior as refined as its shiny exterior and sleek design. Its deck lounge features plush sofas that accommodate six people for dining and offer sweeping views in every direction. Zeelander’s design team has cleverly removed the window frames that would otherwise obstruct the view.
Soft, curving steps lead to two luxurious cabins below. The owner’s cabin is strategically placed to maximize views and natural light, with a bed in the middle. A wide vanity desk takes up the space on the cabin’s port side, further enhanced by the cabin’s extensive storage.
Additional storage is incorporated into the lobby wall that separates the master cabin from the shower and head areas, which are thoughtfully designed to be separate yet connected.
The Zeelander 5 is crafted to be enjoyed outdoors and indoors, making it a perfect fit for the Florida Keys, Nantucket Island, and the Mediterranean as much as the Norwegian fjords. A spacious cockpit with sofas and a high-low table welcomes guests, providing a cozy shelter from the elements. In good weather, the entrance and windows of the lounge can be opened for seamless communication between the captain and the cockpit. A more open lounge on the foredeck is a prime location for sunbathing or enjoying the view comfortably.
The transom of every Zeelander yacht is not only visually stunning but also serves as a crucial feature. Its intricate curves cover the entire width and depth of the stern, enhancing the boat’s overall elegance. Additionally, it folds down to create a large bathing platform with comfortable sunbeds that are unmatched in their class. This platform can transform into a private beach area by the water’s edge, suitable for loungers, chairs, and a table. It can also be used to access the water for water sports activities by activating the hidden hydraulic system or to step onto the dock when the boat is moored.
Having spent years in the industry, Zeelander has learned that its dedicated group of enthusiastic owners often prefer eating out. However, the Zeelander 5 still comes equipped with a fully operational galley. It features a fridge, sink, wine fridge, and induction cooktop, all cleverly hidden behind a curved counter stretching along the cabin’s port side.
The Zeelander 5 is built for performance. You can opt for a twin or triple Volvo Penta IPS 650 engine, offering easy-to-use joystick controls for maneuvering in tight spaces and the thrill of reaching speeds up to 40 knots. With a range of over 450 nautical miles and a carefully crafted hull that ensures comfort in any weather, it’s effortless to spend the day exploring new sailing destinations.
Zeelander’s engineers are dedicated to minimizing noise, allowing for comfortable conversations even at high speeds. This was a key focus for founder and owner Sietse Koopmans, and his dedication has led to the development of advanced noise and vibration reduction systems that are highly regarded in the boatbuilding industry.
SHARING IS CARING - THANK YOU!
