What's the similarity between a gourmet hamburger and a HopYacht 30?


Every once in a while at the HopYacht factory we order lunch from a local deli just down the road. A few weeks back, in between bites into a giant burger, Oscar Dill our procurement and project manager asked us all what we thought the similarity was between a gourmet hamburger and a HopYacht 30?


Our initial reaction was to wait for the punchline, but quickly realised he was being serious! "Great taste between two buns and great design taste between two hulls?” A bit of a stretch, but a clever response from one of the team.  “Easy to eat and easy to sail?” someone else added … equally quick off the mark.


But Oscar shook his head and responded, “it's simple, they are both fully loaded!”  After a mixture of groans and laughs, we picked up on his idea of a fully loaded HopYacht and looking back over the past 18 months we have certainly pushed hard to load more into the design and overall finishes on the boat.


HopYacht 004 is currently in Fort Lauderdale USA and HopYacht 005 is about to arrive in France and will be on display at the La Rochelle Boat Show. Both these boats are fully loaded with new features. Here's just a taste of what you can expect on our new menu!


  • new interior upholstery options

  • improved standing headroom in the shower

  • new vanity unit design with built in magazine rack

  • larger galley cupboard storage

  • an onboard system to raise and lower the mast without needing a crane

  • new awning design to fully enclose helm station in bad weather
