The Bestevaer 36 S/Y

A new kid in town

Together with Dykstra Naval Architects we are on a journey to develop the smallest Bestevaer yet. A yacht for legendary sailor and the original designer of the Bestevaer series Gerard Dijkstra to explore the waters he never got to explore before: shallow waters. A yacht that would allow him to moor in smaller marinas. Also, with the gorgeous Wadden Sea nearby, he wanted a yacht that was able to dry out. That yacht is currently in development: the Bestevaer 36 S/Y.

When Gerard Dijkstra set out to design his own dream yacht, he had a crystal clear vision: a yacht offering excellent performance, even in the toughest of conditions. A yacht that he could comfortably sail single-handedly. A strong yacht. And: a gorgeous yacht. That yacht was the very first Bestevaer.

The BV 36 S/Y will be everything you expect from a Bestevaer: high performance, strength, and a beautiful design. We’re also on a mission to develop our most sustainable yacht yet. Come and join our expedition, let’s go places.
