Moonen Yachts History & Heritage
Moonen Yachts, a distinguished shipyard steeped in the tradition of luxury yacht construction, traces its origins back to 1963 in the Netherlands. Founded by the visionary sailor and entrepreneur Willem Moonen, the shipyard quickly gained renown for its commitment to crafting exceptional vessels characterized by elegance, craftsmanship, and unparalleled quality.
Moonen's passion for the sea and his aspiration to create extraordinary yachts laid the foundation for the shipyard's legacy. As industry trends evolved, Moonen Yachts embraced innovation and advancements in yacht construction, expanding its capabilities to include the use of steel and aluminum in addition to traditional materials.
Throughout its history, Moonen Yachts has curated an impressive portfolio of bespoke yachts tailored to the unique preferences and needs of its clientele. From luxurious superyachts to rugged expedition vessels designed for extended cruising, each Moonen yacht exemplifies a combination of sophistication and modern functionality.
The shipyard's dedication to quality and innovation has earned it numerous accolades and widespread acclaim within the industry. Furthermore, the builder has attracted a loyal following of yacht enthusiasts from across the globe who seek nothing less than the finest in yacht craftsmanship and design.
As a result, in 2008 Moonen opened a second shipyard in Groot-Ammers that gave it the space and scope to construct superyachts up to 45m in length.
