Yachts.

Who doesn’t love ’em? So big, so grand, so elegant, so exclusive.

Specifically, let’s talk about the Zeelander 8, the flagship of the Zeelander fleet. At a rather impressive 24 metres (or 80 feet for those of us who think in feet), this beauty is the biggest Zeelander to date, and it’s an absolute marvel.

Imagine stepping aboard and being greeted by an interior that whispers luxury and screams style. The design? Timeless, with a contemporary soul. Both inside and out, the Zeelander 8 is immaculate. The exterior boasts voluptuous lines and smooth curves that just beg to be admired. And the interior? Well, it’s simply littered with elegant touches – a symphony of fine leathers, rich woods, and deep, inviting upholstery.

This yacht is made for those who love to socialise, those who know how to throw a party, those who embrace the joy of life. Think large, inviting social spaces perfect for gatherings, from intimate dinners to full-blown yacht parties. The main deck is home to a spacious lounging and dining area, complete with a well-equipped galley. And, like all Zeelanders, the 8 features that signature huge targa sunroof overhead and retractable aft doors. This ingenious design allows owners to control their climate at the touch of a button – fully open to the cooling breeze on a summer’s day, or cosily insulated with the heating or air conditioning on when needed.

Now, let’s take a look at the yacht’s bespoke features. In this particular Zeelander 8, the owner opted to move the galley to the starboard side and shift the bar further back into the cockpit. This resulted in a brand new, beautifully open lounging area perfect for relaxing and enjoying the company of friends and family. The colour palette throughout is a calming array of neutral tones, hand-picked by the owner themselves. And the woody detailing? Oh, it’s simply exquisite. Vibrant, artistic, and masterfully painted, it enhances every edge and shape, adding a touch of warmth and sophistication. This yacht is a true masterpiece, a testament to Zeelander’s commitment to craftsmanship and design.

Moving below deck, the owner’s stateroom is positioned amidships, benefiting from huge windows and impressive headroom. The design here is pure elegance, with a king-sized bed and sound-dampening ceiling panels to ensure a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The owner’s bathroom is equally grand, featuring a large separate shower with a rainforest shower head.  And, for added privacy, the whole space can be closed off with frosted glass doors.

Two further guest cabins, each with fantastic sea views through large windows, provide generous room for comfortable overnight stays. Additionally, because Zeelander is all about customisation, the possibilities are endless. They’ve even had enquiries about turning one of the cabins into a gym! Anyone keen on getting a Zeelander for themselves should surely study up on how they want to customise their dream yacht.

Up in the saloon, the forward section is dedicated to the pilot station. Designed for owner use, this area is a dream for any boating enthusiast. Two adjustable leather seats ensure the driver can enjoy the company of a passenger while at the helm.  And with triple Garmin navigation displays, every system is at the owner’s fingertips.  So, if the mood strikes, the owner can easily take control and navigate this magnificent vessel themselves. The Zeelander 8 is more than just a yacht; it’s a statement.  A statement of style, sophistication, and a love for the open water.
