Vripack are proud to announce a venture which will create a big buzz. During the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show which runs from 28 October till 1 November 2010, the legend called Doggersbank will officially re-enter the market.
Since the first Doggersbank hit the water back in 1968 the concept has proven itself over and over again with proud owners taking the sturdy explorers to the outskirts of our world. Today more than 500 Doggersbanks have been built in a multitude of different versions, in both power and sail, metal and composite. The Doggersbank is known because of the heavy duty use, low emissions, clean engine rooms and equipment that will run forever. When you look at a Doggersbank you will find an expedition vessel that combines the capacity of a ship with the interior of a first-class family yacht. During the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show this brand will re-enter the market with 3 lines, known as the Original, Modern and Green. Besides that it is good to know that even when you desire the original Doggersbank, she can be fully customized according to your wishes and demands. The enthusiastic Dutch Naval Architects and Engineers from Vripack will stay real close to the yard that builds the Doggersbank to assure the top quality of this already famous brand.
The Doggersbank is an independent concept. In other words you can say it is like “building the yardless yacht”. This odd interpretation comes in to existence because of Vripack’s innovative construction method called Smart Kit®. Because of this construction method it is possible to build your family dream wherever you would like. With Smart Kit® you can still choose your own yard after you have already chosen for Doggersbank.
Surprisingly independency is not the only advantage Smart Kit® has to offer you. Vripack is always aiming to make the next ship better than the last and is convinced that there still is a lot more potential for this sturdy design in order to reach a new pinnacle of what can be achieved. To realize this pinnacle Smart Kit® makes it possible to save 15% of metal production time, speed up the pre-assembling of units and above all, it saves al lot of man hours meaning lower costs and a quicker delivery. In other words, Vripack’s Smart Kit® shortens the whole building time and all this can be realized right in your own back yard!
