A small gathering with a clear view of the horizon
That gives a Nice day a straightforward outdoor character, supported by compact facilities below. A coastal passage and one generous pause can make fuller use of the design than a busy itinerary. This profile uses the current builder reference, while earlier VanDutch generations retain their own dimensions and fitted details.
Give a short outing one clear purpose
A few hours linked to a Nice stay can be centred on a coastal passage, a light picnic or time at a suitable stop. Pick the main experience before adding another destination. The open cockpit makes the journey part of the enjoyment, but repeated brief stops can leave little opportunity to settle. The captain’s choice of a comfortable stretch and the exact joining point should suit the hours available.
Shade and food plans belong together
A clean exterior line does not describe the cover fitted on the offered boat. Guests who need dependable shade should have that preference considered alongside the table, seating and time of day. Simple food asks less of the deck than a formal served lunch. If the meal is the principal occasion, compare the VanDutch’s actual arrangement with a model offering a larger table or enclosed saloon.
The model year keeps the comparison accurate
The model details and dimensions here follow the current builder’s VanDutch 40 reference. Earlier examples, and naming such as 40.2, have their own measurements and details. Current photographs and the stated generation keep an offer consistent. For Nice guests, that practical comparison preserves the reason for choosing the design: a direct, uncluttered open-deck experience.
Charter questions
Do all VanDutch 40 generations have identical dimensions?
No. This guide uses the current builder reference. Earlier 40 and 40.2 examples should be compared using their own year, photographs and specification.
