UK DEBUTE VAN DEN HOVEN VOYAGER 50

With the launch of the first Voyager 50 in 2022, we are pleased to introduce the second Van den Hoven Voyager 50 during her debut in the UK at the British Motor Yacht Show. After the success of the Voyager 50, 56, and 61 in Europe, the new Voyager 50 Coupé combines elegance, speed, space, and comfort to perfection, making this the perfect moment for her premiere in the UK. Designed by René van der Velden, the yacht has exceeded expectations in terms of performance and looks even better in the water than she did on paper.

The Voyager 50 combines the best of both worlds, maintaining the impressive comfort levels of her bigger sisters while having seductive looks all of her own. This 15-metre ‘coupé’ yacht has a striking exterior, with her low profile and elegant lines generating a sporty feel. Built entirely in aluminium, she is significantly lighter than comparable steel boats. This translates into a faster acceleration and major savings on fuel consumption, while the sustainability of aluminium as a material adds to the attractions.

High-end comfort like all yachts in the Voyager line, the 50 Coupéhas been developed for owners looking to sail further in less time. The performance since the launch of the first model has confirmed that the Voyager 50 Coupé is everything one would expect and more. Powered by twin Volvo Penta 480 hp engines, the yacht has a top speed of 22 knots and impressive manoeuvrability. The considerable time and energy devoted to sound and vibration attenuation has paid off, making longer stays onboard very pleasant indeed. In fact, the Voyager 50 must surely be one of the quietest and most relaxed 50-footers on the market today.

Superb use of space this compact and luxurious motoryacht makes the most of its space too. A vertical windscreen gives the saloon a remarkable amount of extra volume compared to similarly sized yachts with traditional rear slanted windshields. Another key interior asset is the way the saloon, fully equipped galley and helm station are all found on the same level, ensuring that everyone feels part of the fun when sailing. The panoramic 360-degree views from the saloon make this a popular gathering place in all weathers. Below decks the Voyager 50 features a spacious owner’s suite with a bathroom plus two guest cabins with four berths.

Outdoor pleasures moving outside, the wide gangways provide ample room to move safely from fore to aft. The foredeck has a range of tempting sunbeds and seating, the ideal spot to observe the yacht’s steady progress. A cosy aft deck is set up for al fresco lounging and dining while the stern features a clever storage space with an electrically operated hatch to store bicycles, water-skis, sups and more. There is also a hydraulic swimming platform, which future clients could adapt to carry a tender of up to 3.85 metres if required.

Debute United Kingdom in all respects, the exquisite Dutch build Voyager 50 is the perfect yacht for the British Isles. The all-aluminium construction is clearly apparent throughout the Voyager 50. It has a feeling of solidity and being build to the highest standards that only a very experienced custom shipyard can provide. Van den Hoven Jachtbouw has 25 years’ experience in building beautiful bespoke vessels for its discerning customers. The shipyard has already launched over 60 yachts and has an enviable reputation in the European market. For the first time, Van den Hoven is bringing its new Voyager 50 to the British Motor Yacht show.

The configuration and sporty looks of this 50-footer will appeal to younger owners, with or without guests, while the single-level layout and low entry makes the yacht attractive to older clients too. The yacht will be extremely manoeuvrable and easy to sail, moor and operate, making it the ideal weekender for a quick trip around the Hamble or a further trip to the Isles of Scilly or Orkney islands. High comfort levels ensure the Voyager 50 is very suitable for longer stays on board too. The underfloor heating makes this a great all-season yacht, and the generous interior space is perfect enjoying incredible views through its large windows. It also features a large lazarette for storing all your toys and an engine room which wouldn’t look out of place in a much larger vessel. We look forward to welcoming you at the show and opening our doors of the new Voyager 50!
