History
Van Dam Nordia, founded in Holland and operating as a longstanding family business since 1881, stands as the epitome of generations of experience and expertise. Beginning by building commercial crafts before transitioning to pleasure boats in 1908 and finally abandoning wood altogether for aluminum to construct yachts of 50 feet to 100 feet lengths in 1956 was a pivotal turning point.
Over time, the company expanded exponentially, earning itself an unrivaled reputation for luxury, comfort, and performance. Furthermore, their brand became well known for exceptional craftsmanship as well as their ability to tailor yachts according to client requests.

TRUANT OF SARK was an exceptional investment by Van Dam Nordia artisans. Her luxurious cherry interior was designed by UK studio Field Work and executed with shadow gaps, many moldings, and lovely marquetry in ash and ebony marquetry. Additionally, its exterior boasts very low profile lines, creating sleek and sophisticated lines. It is now for sale and ready for a new owner.
Design
Dutch shipbuilders have an illustrious shipbuilding tradition, and Van Dam Nordia’s yard embodies this rich legacy.

Yachts were designed and engineered at Van Dam Nordia before being expertly handcrafted to their highest standard by skilled artisans.
