Claasen Shipyards

Pride in their work

Claasen Shipyards has always attracted people of the highest calibre across the spectrum of metalwork, engineering, carpentry and all the other disciplines involved in yachtbuilding. This is partly due to the location we were just discussing – the Zaanstreek area of the Netherlands has been home to countless generations of shipbuilders and the tradition of combining hard graft with serious craftsmanship is engrained in the mindset. The Claasen yard taps into this heritage with pleasure!

Many smart features are introduced to Claasen yachts based on practical experience gained at sea.

But there’s more. As well as being specialists in their own field, many of the Claasen workforce are also highly experienced sailors. They know what it takes to run a yacht and why she must be seaworthy, exceptionally safe and easy for the crew to maintain and operate. And our people also enjoy sailing for what it ultimately revolves around – that unrivalled feeling one gets when out on the water, however big (or small) your yacht is! Many smart features are introduced to Claasen yachts based on practical experience gained at sea.

The yard also pushes the window of innovation with co-makers from Holland’s renowned marine equipment industry, and the world’s top designers and naval architects. Training and development is another key aspect at Claasen. Our craftsmen, engineers and technicians are meticulous in the application of their skills and take pride in their inventiveness. As a yard we ensure they have all the support they could need to grow in their profession.
