From the famed Doggersbank series of yachts to individual custom yachts like the 1995 Palmer Johnson build Turmoil and more, Vripack has made a significant mark on yachts and megayachts worldwide.
Indeed, over the past 50 years, Holland-based Vripack has grown from a one-person design studio, founded by Dick Boon on his own boat, to a full-service yacht design, engineering, naval architecture, and brokerage house populated by several specialists in each division. Vripack has also grown from a company where Boon literally drew each yacht by hand to one where computer-created 3D models spin and swirl on PC screens. (Interesting enough, though, even the young guns of Vripack still hand-sketch initial ideas.)
