Northrop & Johnson Named Exclusive Europe-Wide Agent for Doggersbank’s Latest Models

Posted September 13, 2024 in Company by Ashleigh King

Earlier this week, during the 2024 Cannes Yachting Festival, Doggersbank, in partnership with its European partner Northrop & Johnson, proudly unveiled two highly anticipated models: the Doggersbank 90 Offshore and the flagship Doggersbank 105 Offshore. Northrop & Johnson Yacht Broker Jaap Havenga has been appointed the exclusive Europe-wide agent for the sale of this innovative new range.

Designed by Vripack, both yachts build on Doggersbank’s renowned explorer yacht pedigree while incorporating significant upgrades in guest comfort and crew accommodations. The 90 Offshore offers enhanced guest spaces and larger crew quarters, while the 105 Offshore, as the flagship, boasts an additional en-suite guest cabin, bringing the total to four, including a full-beam owner’s suite, and expanded crew accommodations for five.

Doggersbank Sales Director Joost Mertens highlighted the driving force behind these new models, stating “We recognized the growing demand for larger yachts that could integrate modern-day technologies while offering more usable space for both guests and crew. Thanks to our close relationship with Patrick Coote and the Northrop & Johnson team, we saw an opportunity to evolve our designs and meet the market’s desire for well-built, capable explorer yachts.”

Both models represent a significant leap in space, efficiency and style. Featuring bolder, more muscular designs, the Doggersbank 90 and 105 Offshore models were crafted to appeal to adventurous yacht owners who seek to explore the world with up to eight guests in tow. Feedback from owners inspired many of the upgrades, including an additional crew cabin on the 105 Offshore, ensuring improved service and a crew of five for longer voyages.

The exterior design updates include sharpened aft fashion plates, an inclined bow and wide exterior angles that give these yachts a strikingly adventurous aesthetic. The modern black window mullions, larger glazing and sleek sunshade frames create an enhanced connection to the sea, especially from the central helm position, allowing for better views of the horizon.

“The new Offshore series redefines Doggersbank’s reputation for safety, comfort and experience, making it even more appealing to a younger, outdoor-oriented audience,” Mertens added. “With features like the forward eight-person Jacuzzi and versatile aft deck, these yachts are built for both luxury and adventure.”

Key highlights of both models include expansive outdoor living spaces, an upper-deck Jacuzzi and increased storage capacity with flexible loose storage boxes, offering owners the ability to carry more water toys and equipment. The yachts also offer hybrid propulsion options, providing silent cruising for those seeking a little extra tranquility while underway.

With Dutch design by Vripack and Dutch craftsmanship, the two models are built with family cruising in mind, combining luxurious comfort with true explorer yacht capabilities.
