Launched; Mulder 55 Explorer "Mooie Nel"

02.11.2011 MULDER 55 EXPLORER "Mooie Nel" 
Robust elegance... Mooie Nel is a new Mulder 55 Explorer built for a client from the Netherlands. Although most Mulder yachts head for the Mediterranean region, she will mainly be cruising in Northern Europe and be berthed close to the Mulder yard in Voorschoten (NL), As the first Explorer yacht in the Mulder Shipyard range, Mooie Nel (mooie means beautiful in Dutch) is a landmark project in many respects.



Mulder Shipyard created Mooie Nel under its ‘Built by Mulder’ label, which offers clients the opportunity to utilise the expertise and craftsmanship of Mulder Shipyard and realise their own design for their dream yacht. Naturally, the design needs to be in line with the character and quality standards applied by the yard.



Mooie Nel has a round-bilged hull to ensure excellent performance in all weather conditions. Her engine system consists of two John Deere engines with 200 hp each, giving a maximum speed of 11 knots and a cruising speed of nine. The white superstructure and grey hull have been combined with various high-gloss varnished teak details and high-gloss polished stainless steel. Despite its robust character, Mooie Nel has maintained an elegant appearance.

The yacht interior consists of cherry wood with unvarnished teak floors. A unique feature is the floor heating throughout the yacht to ensure a constant temperature throughout. Mooie Nel has three suites: Two guest cabins amidships and an owner’s stateroom fore. The saloon has a spacious L-shaped sofa and the galley is fully equipped with high-end kitchen appliances.



The wheelhouse contains a comfortable L-shaped sofa with great views over the water. A press of the button slides down the automatic screens to blind the wheelhouse windows. Additionally, the wheelhouse has a large electric sliding roof for maximum ventilation and an outdoor feel. The four teak swing doors provide access to the aft deck, which is fitted with a U-shaped sofa with comfortable cushions.



Mulder Shipyard is currently working on various other projects such as a new Mulder 73 Flybridge, a 98 Flybridge and several Favorite models. The hull of the Bellagio will arrive at the yard soon.
