Van der Valk Explorer 21M Motor Yacht
About Van der Valk Explorer 21M
Aluminium is the material choice that defines how the Van der Valk Explorer 21M is built. The yard completed her in 2025 in the Netherlands, and her two engines are sized for distance rather than a sprint. She was drawn to cruise with comfort as the priority, with the range to cover real passages, not just day trips between nearby anchorages.
Build and provenance
She is a monohull worked in aluminium, new from the yard with no history yet to disclose. Measuring 21 metres, or 69 feet, with a beam of six metres, she sits on a platform sized for practical seaworthiness rather than luxury tonnage.
Layout and accommodation
Three cabins sleep six guests. The accommodation is set up for practical use rather than as a showpiece: a layout built for a yacht that is meant to go somewhere, not just be admired at the dock. Storage is ample, and the galley has been arranged for provisioning long passages.
Performance and engineering
Two MAN engines, each rated at 500 hp, power her. The engineering is straightforward diesel propulsion: proven, maintainable, and sized to a steady cruising pace rather than a sprint between anchorages.
Where she lies and how to see her
The Van der Valk Explorer 21M lies in the Netherlands. Viewings are ours to arrange and we are there for every one, and once an offer is accepted, survey and sea trial follow before anything else moves.

Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
