High Performance Sailing Yachts. The Zeydon Z series.
With a solid background in automotive construction
and a passion for sea and sailing, Ben Van Hool and David Van
Nieuwenhove started a shipyard from scratch, and are currently building
the first Z60. In fact, what quite fascinated them was the gap between
traditional ocean-cruisers and racer-cruisers.
However, one cannot deny yachting in general is still missing the
expressive design which distinguishes for instance automotive brands
from one another. Following this philosophy, the Zeydon concept was
born: a functional and sophisticated no-nonsense design, a highly
advanced and innovative technology & pure dedication and passion into
every single detail.
Driven by an uncompromising pursuit of perfection, Zeydon Shipyard
represents a remarkable collective effort from a team of skilled
designers, engineers, naval architects and experienced boat builders.
The people at Zeydon are multi-skilled, capable of carpentry one week,
and working on electrics or plumbing the following week. To be able to
do one job in this business, you need to have practical experience of
many others. Too often at boat yards you will see workmen installing the
interior of a yacht without thinking about the influence of their action
on other installed parts in the yacht.
The Z® series
The Z® series are combining wide cruising potential with impressive
sailing speeds and luxurious accommodation for a variety of uses. They
are exceptionally manoeuvrable and offer superb efficiency of
performance and handling.
"If you look down from a hill onto the bay you want to see that your
yacht is the most attractive around."
This means an outside expressive and exciting gesture which emphasizes a
performance and ambitious character (for him) with inside a luxury and
spacious lounge feeling (for her). This is a potential solution to merge
the contrasting desires of sailors into an innovative interpretation of
the traditional yachting experience.
Innovation, performance, functional & no-nonsense design, comfort,
reliability and quality are the core values of the Z® Series.

" Zeydon: Z60 Yacht. Dynamic Offshore YachtingDesign
Challenge: Belgian yacht manufacturer Zeydon challenged DesignworksUSA
to create a design for their Z® series 60-foot class premium performance
cruisers. Zeydon wished the crusiers' new design to make a unique and
compelling statement that represents Zeydon's progressive approach to
sailing.
Design Solution: A yacht with a formidable performance-oriented exterior
and a spacious lounge-like interior. DesignworksUSA depicted Zeydon's
core brand values of innovation, performance, functional and no-nonsense
design, comfort, reliability, and premium quality down to the last
detail. The Zeydon Z60 combines the sailing performance potential of an
offshore racing yacht with an uncompromising range of equipment features
and the elegance of a modern pleasure cruiser. The design incorporates
both impressive sailing speeds and luxurious accommodations, merging the
contrasting desires of sailors into an innovative interpretation of the
traditional yachting experience.
Eye-catching in any port, this design guarantees a unique sailing
experience. Regatta-oriented functionality and effortless handling are
combined with a generously designed deck area incorporating features
usually found only on much larger yachts. The remarkable concept is also
distinctively accentuated by the dynamic form and exiting gesture of the
hull and superstructures. The high-quality materials and styling focus
on precision and optimum functionality. Even the smallest details
reflect design quality standards in line with Zeydon's aspiration to
achieve a high degree of workmanship coupled with innovative
manufacturing methods. With the Z60, yachting enthusiasts are offered
something truly new and exclusive".
