Vanquish Designer
“We create fully customised fast driver’s boats with awesome agility and supreme comfort, hand- built in the Netherlands for demanding individualists.”
Tom Steentjes, Designer
Based in the Netherlands at the epicentre of the world’s premium yachting industry, VQ Yachts offers you something truly unique. VQ Yachts was established in 2012 by a man on a mission. Tom Steentjes is a Dutchman with a love for smart technology and making things happen. A master welder by trade, he set up a very successful firm building custom equipment for the fast food industry in his late teens and had sold the company by the time he hit 30. Since then he hasn’t looked back.
Combining a rich understanding of process efficiency with a desire to push the window of innovation and exceptional skills in aluminium, the first VQ32 was launched to popular acclaim in 2013. This was followed by a string of different models, all developed with clients
who share Tom’s attitude that nothing is impossible and no two boats should be the same.

Axopar 29 Cross Cabin Review for those looking for the best family boat in Australia
Raelyn and Graeme, based in Sydney Harbour, are now two-time Axopar owners, upgrading from the Axopar 28 to the Axopar 29 Cross Cabin, and for them, it’s been a natural progression into more space, comfort, and all-weather versatility for the whole family.
“The boat was far better than the 28, it’s a beautiful boat. It’s a drier ride, there’s more functionality, and a lot more headroom. With kids and grandkids, that extra space makes a big difference. It’s just a really nice progression from where the 28 was. You can use it in any condition, sunny, rainy, day or night, and it’s so safe for the family with everyone inside when you need. Honestly, just buy one.”
