Breehorns are timeless beauties; yachts that are created for action and long seasons. Typical features include their hull shape, spacious working deck and sheltered cockpit. They are elegant, yet sturdy, built for and by sailyacht enthusiasts. Breehorn builds every yacht in close collaboration with the client and in accordance with their wishes. The yard constructs virtually the entire yacht in-house to ensure an optimal process and material quality.
Breehorns were designed and built to sail in all conditions and you will never have to worry about the strength and seaworthiness of your craft in open waters. The short superstructure means the deck is open and spacious, ensuring the crew plenty of room to manoeuvre. By leaving the halyards at the mast the yard has chosen for simplicity to guarantee reliability and a safe performance.
The Breehorns’ high average speed allows you to increase your sailing range; from a long day of sailing to a multi-day trip, even with a minimal crew. The interior of the yachts is also built with experienced sailors in mind, with handholds wherever you may need them and plenty of places to brace yourself comfortably and safely, even at the chart table or in the U-shaped galley. The proven design is the result of many nautical miles sailed by the designers and builders, along with rigorous feedback from owners.
Why does a strongly built yacht often out-sail so many of its lightweight competitors? The yard uses a balanced hull shape, which does not need re-trimming when at an angle, allowing you to helm your boat with little effort. As the wetted surface is relatively small, you still achieve good speeds even with little wind.
Beautiful new 31-footer
This year saw the addition of a 31-foot boat to the lower end of the Breehorn range. The modernised Victoire 933 is famous as one of the top models from the Koopmans drawing board. It was already in line with the Breehorn range, and is now being built to the yard’s high-quality standard. The 31 makes it possible to own a Breehorn and enjoy its sailing properties and quality even sooner.
Sturdy 53-footer
The Breehorn 53 offers comfortable sailing in all conditions. It sees the yard fulfilling a long-standing sailors’ wish, built on the tradition of previous Breehorns and developed in accordance with the
latest design principles of the team at Simonis Voogd. This yacht combines some 40 years of building experience and hundreds of thousands of nautical miles sailed by Breehorn owners. The result is a true Breehorn, with even more power and comfort.
The Breehorn 53 is currently in development for a customer who wishes to sail in both warm and cold climes for months at a time. It was therefore given a pilothouse with ample room to comfortably spend a night or enjoy dinner while at anchor or in port. The cockpit makes no compromises where comfort and safety are concerned, and the boat is stable while heeling.
The hull and deck are in aluminium while the cockpit and superstructure are made from composite. This makes for a combination of the best of both worlds – a stiff, strong hull and a warm cockpit with cosy, graceful shapes.
