Vandutch 55

Onboard the Vandutch 55

The Vandutch 55 carries the sharp, low-slung profile the yard is known for, and at 16 metres it reads as more sports car than yacht. Deck space is open and uncluttered, built for lounging rather than passage-making, with sightlines that keep the group together whether guests are seated forward or aft. Two cabins below give the layout a practical edge over a pure day-boat design — useful for changing, storing bags and gear, or simply stepping out of the sun for a while during a longer charter day.

With capacity for 12 guests, the Vandutch 55 suits a full group booking out of Puerto Portals or Club de Mar Palma without feeling stretched. A run west across the Bay of Palma toward Illetes, or east toward Portopetro, sits comfortably within a half-day or full-day charter, with the yacht's low freeboard making swim stops and anchoring in sheltered water straightforward. It is equally suited to a slower pace — a few hours on the water with lunch aboard, rather than a fixed point-to-point itinerary.

This is the right choice for a group that wants speed, style and open deck space over cabin-heavy cruising — a corporate outing from Puerto Portals, a family afternoon on calm water, or a couple wanting a sharper-looking boat for a few hours at sea. Bookings run as day charters from the Mallorca base, and the size makes it a straightforward option for parties who want the full 12-guest capacity without stepping up to a larger motor yacht.
