Two of the four new VanDutch Centers that the shipyard has decided to launch in the most iconic yachting destinations around the world have officially opened, aiming to elevate its luxury yacht brand known globally for its glamorous elegance. Positioned by the water to provide stunning views to visitors, the two inaugurated VanDutch Centers are located in Saint-Tropez and on Lake Garda, at the marina of Moniga del Garda. They were the centerpieces of two exclusive events – which took place on May 26th and June 11th, respectively – celebrating their opening. The VanDutch Centers in Miami and the Balearic Islands are set to open soon.
VanDutch Center Services
Cantiere del Pardo aims to establish private yacht clubs for VanDutch owners, focused on organizing exclusive events and gatherings, along with exceptional onshore and boating services. The opening of the four centers aligns with the strategy that Cantiere del Pardo has been pursuing over the last two years to bolster the reputation of VanDutch yachts, following its acquisition of the brand in 2020. Significant investments have been made to enhance global awareness of the high quality and performance of these motor yachts, built with the expertise and craftsmanship of this historic Italian shipyard.
“The VanDutch centers aim to completely redefine the yachting experience, raising the bar far above anything that has ever been done before,” states a release from Cantiere del Pardo. “VanDutch is centered on delivering the best possible experiences for elite yacht enthusiasts, fostering a strong sense of community among VanDutch yacht owners.”
Any owner of a VanDutch yacht can benefit from the services provided by the centers around the globe. Additionally, owners will be able to test new models at sea and will receive invitations to events organized by the company at its new locations.
The Opening of the Center on Lake Garda
The launch party of the VanDutch Center in Moniga del Garda started with a sporty vibe to reflect the lifestyle essence of VanDutch yachts, featuring an exhilarating sea trial onboard the VanDutch 32 and 40, which alternated moments of speed with more leisurely cruising, allowing attendees to enjoy the breathtaking scenery of Lake Garda. The boats navigated to some of the lake’s most exclusive spots, including Sirmione, the Island of Garda, the Gulf of Salò, and Gardone Riviera. As the sun set, guests were welcomed into the inviting ambiance of the VanDutch Center for a cocktail party accompanied by a DJ set.
The Lake Garda VanDutch Center offers a wide range of services, such as boat hauling and launching with a crane, winter storage, regular and extraordinary maintenance at the mechanical workshop, mooring assistance with skilled personnel, removal and commissioning of boat covers, year-round night surveillance, and 24-hour video monitoring of the entire marina area, reserved parking, dockside garage rentals, dinghy assistance and recovery, and supply of nautical accessories.
