Sharing this knowledge with clients is the engine that drives me and leads me every day to fulfillment. The constant pursuit of perfection in sailing techniques are connected to me with two words authenticity and modernity.

Together with my wife Reineke, who has a background in journalism & interior designing, we have rebuilt our company Advanced Yacht Consulting into a new form. For her designing an interior does not only mean designing a form, but also imagining the use for it. As partners in life and business for almost 30 years we are able to complement each other very well.

My working relationship with Michael is an unique one. For 22 years, we have been seeking to innovate and pursuit one goal – the pleasure of sailing for our clients. My true believe is that the YYachts reflects the new bar for sailing yachts between 70 and 100ft. The changing active lifestyle of our clientèle calls for new innovations and breaking with traditional standards.

Together with the professional team in the yard we challenge ourselves to built the YYacht that suits our clients present needs.
