Description
One-of-a-Kind Classic: Hand-Built Friesian Dutch Tjotter | 6.5 m | Now in Panama
Offered for sale is an exceptionally rare custom-built Dutch tjotter, a true piece of maritime heritage now located in Panama. Measuring 6.5 meters, this traditional vessel was hand-built in the Netherlands from dune oak, following authentic historic tjotter lines and construction methods.
Lovingly maintained by the builder’s own family since launch, this boat is not a replica or production craft, but a genuine, thoughtfully executed classic. It has successfully competed and won sailing races in its class, proving that its beauty is matched by performance.
This classic Friesian tjotter is turnkey and easy to enjoy:
Comes with its own trailer for simple transport and storage
Includes a full canvas cover
Equipped with an outboard engine
Easy to launch and sail, ideal for solo sailors or relaxed day sailing
With its flat-bottom hull and leeboards, the boat has an extremely shallow draft, allowing access to waters most vessels can’t reach. Perfect for bays, estuaries, rivers, and protected coastal areas.
Additional highlights:
Beautifully varnished topsides showcasing the dune oak craftsmanship
Bottom paint applied and maintained
Full set of sails in good condition
Classic gaff-rig proportions with excellent balance and handling
Recently relocated to Panama, this tjotter is absolutely unique in the region. There is nothing else like it currently available locally. It will appeal strongly to classic yacht enthusiasts, traditional sailing aficionados, and outdoor lovers seeking a distinctive, character-rich boat that turns heads wherever it goes.
This is more than a sailboat — it is a living piece of Dutch maritime tradition, ready to be sailed, admired, and cherished.
