Specifications describe the model. Your quote confirms the yacht, equipment and permitted guest number for your dates.
A design that keeps the horizon open
The cockpit is the main gathering space; compact facilities below support a day outside rather than turning it into a large-yacht interior experience. The current builder reference lists 12.48 metres overall and 3.42 metres in beam.
Earlier VanDutch 40 examples differ in dimensions and details, so the model year matters when comparing offers. This entry covers a current builder exterior reference.
A short coastal outing with a purpose
A Mandelieu departure can stay focused on the nearby gulf and Théoule coast, particularly when the group wants only a few hours afloat. If lunch or a swim is the highlight, leave a useful block of time for that moment instead of filling the programme with several destinations. For an island outing, allow the passage and return to shape the duration. The open cockpit makes the journey part of the experience, but guests should also be comfortable with the weather and sun exposure for the proposed hours.
Choose the day around outdoor comfort
Tell us about shade preferences, children and anyone who would prefer a sheltered seat. An open model’s clean lines are appealing, yet the canopy fitted to the actual boat is a practical part of the decision. Comfortable space for the group matters more than filling a design capacity.
Bring the catering plan into the same brief. Refreshments and a light picnic ask less of the deck than a formal seated meal. If dining is the central occasion, compare the VanDutch with a yacht that provides a more substantial table or enclosed saloon.
Charter questions
Is VanDutch 40 the same as VanDutch 40.2?
The naming and specifications have changed over time. State the preferred generation if it matters, and compare the actual offered yacht rather than combining specifications from different versions.
Is there an enclosed upper saloon?
The model reference is an open day-yacht arrangement with compact facilities below. For an indoor social area, consider a sports cruiser or flybridge yacht instead.
