Van der Valk 78 Flybridge Motor Yacht

Van der Valk Shipyard is a premium builder and storied yard located in the Netherlands about an hour south of Amsterdam in the town of Waalwijk.  This skilled yard produces completely custom, ultra high quality yachts carefully crafted, designed and built for the most discerning buyers. These are truly some of the finest yachts built and it’s rare to find a yacht like this especially in this size range located in US waters.  GyrFalcon has seen just two owners since she was launched in 2016 after being ordered and custom designed in 2013.  Her current owners purchased her in 2019 and took her back to the Van der Valk yard for some serious upgrades.  She was outfitted with new zero speed fin stabilizers, a revamped flybridge configuration thats the best place aboard to host a party or event with friends thanks to the custom bar and single level layout. The large main deck aft features a large seating area and several seats with beautiful views all around, as well as a substantial dining area. She has a beautiful bow seating area for more intiment settings which is a great place to unwind from the day watching the. sunset on the seascapes before you.  She has excellent guest accommodations and an outstanding crew area.  Being that she was built for off the grid exploring, these generous staterooms will come in handy for extended travel while aboard.   Having shown her nothing but love and care her owners are looking for the next lucky owner to continue onward in her journey.  Everything is up to date and ready to go.  The only question left is, where will you take her?  For showings, please provide 24 hour notice.
