Aurelia to the water

Publication date 14 Nov '08

A yacht, vessel, or small ship designed by Willem Nieland is different. Not different for the sake of being different. Different because it wants to add something to what is already there.

Does renewal in timeless-looking motor and sailing yachts sound strange? He doesn't think so. It is the knowledge of the classics, the ‘law and order’ of the sea and daily navigational practice, but at the same time being receptive to everything that literally and figuratively moves in his world and the world of his customers.

And he always does this only to achieve improvement, always going the extra mile within the specified length or budget. Creativity not only as a naval architect but also in the form of down-to-earth inventiveness.
Trendy, but still different, with clear added value. Just that bit more, to make it stand out.
