The latest Zeelander 5 to hit the seas is pure, unadulterated luxury.
The 48-footer, which the Dutch yard just delivered to her Turkish owner, takes design inspiration from two of the biggest names in luxury: Bentley and Hermès.
Unveiled in 2021, the Zeelander 5 is currently the smallest model in the four-strong lineup, behind the 56-foot Zeelander 6, the 67-foot Zeelander 7, and the 79-foot Zeelander 8. The semi-custom yacht is built on a standardized hull, but offers extensive personalization options that make it feel almost fully bespoke.
“Although our Zeelander 5 is a platform that has been well proven around the world, no two yachts are alike,” Zeelander founder and chairman Sietse Koopmans said in a statement.
This particular unit was designed specifically to match the owner’s cars and aircraft. Created by Zeelander’s in-house design team in collaboration with the owner’s chosen studio, the yacht features Bentley-inspired metallic paintwork on the hull and superstructure. The shimmery “Light Gazelle” finish shifts between gray and bronze, creating a striking contrast against the dark, tinted glass on the large wraparound window.
