Enjoy one of our incredible experiences at sea surrounded by the comfort and service that only the VanDutch 40′ can offer, as one of the few yachts with such great power, speed and luxury.

Inside, there is a V-shaped room with a table, perfect for keeping out of the sun. It also has a kitchen with sink, microwave, and refrigerator.

Sail down Washington’s Potomac River to enjoy a unique perspective on the nation’s capital - appreciate the famous monuments from an entirely new perspective. Cruise by some of the city’s many landmarks including the memorials on the National Mall, Old Town Alexandria and National Harbour. Watch the sunset aboard your yacht as you see the monuments in an entirely new light.

Washington, DC, the capital of the United States, was founded after the American Revolution as the homeplace for the newly established government and named after one of the Founding Fathers and first president of the US, George Washington. It sits along a part of the Potomac River and is defined by its imposing neoclassical monuments and buildings – such as the Capitol, White House and Supreme Court. 

Washington is also home to iconic museums and performing venues such as the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Board your yacht at Washington Harbour to begin your cruise through this scenic city. Located on the banks of the Potomac River, you will surely cruise by this Washington icon as you explore the river. This building is one of the largest and most prominent in the nation's capital. As you continue sailing, you will cruise by the beautiful Georgetown University with a Gothic and Georgian brick architecture campus; the view from the river is simply picture perfect.

Washington DC may be considered one of the most scenic cities in the nation and many of the best views of the city are seen as you cruise the Potomac River. Make your way around the Little Island and begin sailing down the river, under the Arlington Memorial Bridge, and past the Lincoln Memorial and the Washington Monument. These are two of the most iconic national landmarks in the nation's capital and the view from the river is arguably one of the best in the city.

Continuing your cruise making your way to the Capital Yacht Club, you will pass by other landmarks such as The White House, The Pentagon, and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. As you dock at the Yacht Club, disembark and spend the evening at this private club sipping champagne and admiring the stunning view of the White House as the day fades and her lights shine brighter.
