Dutch Yacht Cooperation 2300 series

This boat was at the Monaco Yacht Show:

Dyc 2300

This boat is built in Turkey by Yonca-Onuk shipyard, based on their boats built for Turkish navy and coast guard. The interior designers are Art-Line of Holland and as to my knowledge Heesen team somehow had a supervisory role as a partner for DYC. The performance of the boats build for Turkish coast guard and navy has been very satisfactory during the years. Therefore, the performance figures should reflect reality.

Thanks Lars. That one really has an unusual style!

Thanks Kelly, I couldn´t find the right word....

Is there any relation to Heesen? I saw Heesen's 3700 in a magazine but it was for the Dutch Yacht Corp. instead of Heesen. Any idea?

At least it would stand out in a marina full of Sea Rays

Thanks for the laugh Ben. It's been a long day... needed that.

This boat was featured in the Nov. 2006 Yachts International. It achieved 61.3kn at those trials. They were looking for 63kn(72mph) but did not get there.They have probably reached that number by now as this was the shakedown cruise.

The interior is quite outstanding as it has four race-style bolsters at the helm. Yes the cabins are a bit unusual but with 15'11" beam you do what you have to do to make them work.

I do wish they would clean up the foredeck as it looks very cluttered. I would definitely hide that anchor if at all possible.

And you think the 2300 series look different. Have you checked out the S36 on their website!?!?

Beautiful boat, 65-70mph with either CODAG system. The twin turbine package sounds awesome;
