Sam is a vital part of our assembly team, bringing expertise to equipment installations at local shipyards and managing maintenance, repairs, and refits globally.

In 1993, Akerboom delivered the yacht equipment on a Feadship of remarkable technical sophistication— “Double Haven”, Building Number 647, designed to explore the coastlines of Australia and the Indonesian Archipelago. Acting as a mother ship, its purpose was to enable coastal exploration, with an 8-meter-long catamaran tender, aptly named "Double Happiness," facilitating beachside activities such as barbecues and camping.

Since 1983, Akerboom Yacht Equipment has been at the forefront of crafting custom yacht equipment, renowned for its superior quality and enduring reliability. Our commitment to continuous improvement and innovation has led to a novel approach in the design, production, servicing, and enhancement of bespoke yacht equipment.

We are pleased to share the story of one of our recent service projects to a prestigious 1989 Feadship in Barcelona, Spain. This project is a great example to highlight our long term commitment to supporting our existing fleet of clients.

We're excited to share a story that exemplifies our dedication to excellence and craftsmanship. Recently, our component specialists embarked on a memorable journey to Perth, Australia, with the mission of installing a brand-new shaft line system on the magnificent M/Y JustB. As the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for this system, we take immense pride in enhancing the performance and reliability of this beautiful vessel.

Akerboom has been investing in education for many years and is a recognized training school with 3 to 5 apprentices annually. We own the monumental building "Gemeenteschool" (the Community school) from 1879, which is now being restored to its original role in education.
