Timeless - VAN DER HEIJDEN FOR SALE

2009 Van der Heijden Superior 2000

A striking Dutch-built luxury motor yacht that blends serene semi-displacement cruising with exhilarating planing performance—thanks to twin 825 hp IVECO engines (1,650 hp total) and an optimized V-bottom, hard-chine hull—reaching about 24 knots. CE Category A bluewater rating, stabilizers, and hydraulic bow and stern thrusters deliver confidence and control in all conditions.

Thoughtful, yacht-class design maximizes space: the aft deck and saloon sit on one level, and when the doors fold back, the living area flows beautifully. The flybridge is perfect for piloting, open-air dining, and lounging, while the foredeck invites sunbathing. Inside, two separate stairways provide smart privacy—one leads to a full-beam owner’s domain with an additional “children’s cabin” and a panoramic aft window; the other serves two generous guest cabins forward. A refined, warm interior suits both family cruising and long-range liveaboard comfort.

Lightly used, carefully maintained, and wintered indoors, with numerous aesthetic and technical upgrades completed between 2017–2020. An elegant flybridge cruiser from a renowned Dutch shipyard—absolutely worth a viewing.

About the yacht

Van der Heijden Superior 2000 (2009) is a modern Dutch-built motor yacht that blends calm displacement-style passages with confident planing performance. Gearboxes with trolling valves enable precise slow running, while a refined V-bottom hard-chine hull and a total of one thousand six hundred fifty horsepower deliver speeds of approximately twenty-four knots. Rated CE Category A and equipped with stabilizers plus hydraulic bow and stern thrusters, she inspires confidence in open water and tight harbors alike.

Space is used intelligently: the aft deck and saloon sit on one level, and wide-opening doors create a generous, connected living area. The flybridge combines a clear helm vantage with an inviting spot for open-air meals, and the foredeck is arranged for comfortable sunbathing. Inside, two separate stairways enhance privacy—one leads to the owner’s large suite with an additional children’s cabin and a big aft window, the other serves the two roomy guest cabins forward. In total there are four cabins with eight berths and two heads with showers, making family cruising and longer stays on board easy.

Built with a steel hull, aluminum superstructure, and teak decks, the yacht measures 19.25 by 5.31 by 1.40 meters, carries an approximate displacement of 44.65 tons, and features the proven V-bottom, hard-chine form for efficient semi-displacement and planing operation. Power comes from two IVECO engines of eight hundred twenty-five horsepower each (one thousand two hundred fourteen kilowatts total), giving a maximum speed around twenty-four knots, complemented by stabilizers for added comfort under way.

On board comfort is assured with Kabola heating and air conditioning, while the practical galley includes a stove, refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher. A washing machine supports longer voyages, and entertainment is provided by a TV and audio system. The electrical system runs on 12/24/220 volts with six 210 Ah batteries, an Onan eleven-kilowatt generator, and a Victron charger and inverter to keep everything powered.

Practicality extends to generous tankage: fuel approximately four thousand three hundred liters, fresh water approximately one thousand two hundred liters, and a holding tank approximately four hundred fifty liters. Ground tackle is handled by an electric anchor windlass, and maneuvering is assisted by hydraulic bow and stern thrusters. The yacht has been lightly used, carefully maintained, wintered in warm storage, and received numerous cosmetic and technical upgrades between 2017 and 2020. Located in La Spezia, Italy, this luxury motor yacht and flybridge cruiser from a respected Dutch shipyard is a compelling bluewater, semi-displacement/planing, family-cruiser, liveaboard-ready choice—well worth a personal viewing.
