Zeelander Z72: All the details of the new Zeelander flagship model

Scheduled for launch at the end of 2018, the brand new flagship Z72 from Zeelander is progressing through construction and new details have been released about the build.

Replacing the current flagship of the Dutch shipyard, the Z55, a brand new 22 metre superyacht, will be the largest yacht ever constructed by the Netherlands based shipyard.

With exteriors designed in collaboration between long term partner Cor D Rover and the talented in house design team at Zeelander, the new motor yacht is described as having a 'stylish appearance with some truly unique superyacht features'.

An extendable swim platform adds valuable socialising space for guests, which elongates the stunning S shaped deckline and rounded stern.

Whilst keeping true to the iconic shape, the Zeelander design has evolved. The exterior design was inspired by the way Porsche has incrementally evolved its designs over time.

Created in collaboration with the owner, the first unit of the Z72 has been designed to accommodate a large number of guests to enable large social gatherings onboard. 

The sophisticated interiors feature large social areas which cater to the requirements of the new owner, with stunning panoramic windows which highlight the neutral decor and let in an abundance of natural light.

The welcoming environment presented by the elegant furnishings continues into the overnight accommodation where up to six guests can be accommodated. Three staterooms can be found onboard and the configuration is comprised of a master suite and two double staterooms.

Powered by triple Volvo Penta IPS engines, the Z72 can reach impressive top speeds of 40 knots with a range of 680 nautical miles while cruising at 24 knots.

There's no doubt that the model will become a highly desirable yacht for sale.
