VARNEBANK is a heavy, seaworthy, long-range expedition yacht with accommodations for ten, including crew. She was originally built in Holland for fishing in the North Sea and was later converted to a long-range yacht capable of crossing any ocean. All of the conversion work was done in Holland, beginning in 2004 and completed in 2007. In the process, the boat was stripped of all machinery, electronics, plumbing, wiring, and interior spaces, leaving only the outer steel hull. Much of the hull plating above the waterline was replaced and any damage below the waterline was repaired with new steel plate. A new interior with multiple watertight spaces was constructed of steel and finished in cherry and mahogany. There are two double guest cabins, two crew cabins, a master stateroom, five heads, four showers, and a large tub. A spacious galley on the main deck with a two-drawer stainless refrigerator, full-height stand-alone freezer, dishwasher, microwave oven, convection oven, and an advanced induction cooktop make food preparation a delight. A watertight door leads from the galley to the deck. A new wheelhouse was constructed of aluminum to reduce upper deck weight. This is the first time VARNEBANK is available in North America and she's ready for summer cruising.
