A Story, Scaled —
Imagined with Precision
A tribute to craftsmanship, precision, and pride.
For this scale model, we crafted a highly detailed 1:75 scale model of the Damen Xplorer 60 , built with precision and care.
The story behind the model
For Azure Yacht Design & Naval Architecture, we built the scale model of the Damen Yachting Xplorer 60, an innovative yacht design that combines luxury, technology and functionality. The model was presented at the Monaco Yacht Show, where it attracted a lot of attention at the Azure stand.
Based on the original CAD and GA data, we translated the design into an accurate, hand-finished scale model with an exceptionally high level of detail. From the powerful hull shape to the refined deck layout, each component has been carefully constructed and finished, presented on a sleek black base plate that matches the high-end character of the yacht.
The scale model not only shows the shape and proportions of the Damen Yachting Xplorer 60, but also brings the design story to life. It demonstrates how an explorer yacht combines elegance and adventure. During the exhibition, the model proved to be a real eye-catcher and a powerful communication tool for both design and brand perception.
Scaled for Impact
A scale model of the Damen Xplorer 60 is more than a display piece, it’s a powerful marketing tool. Built to capture the yacht’s design, proportions, and overall presence, it allows potential clients to experience the yacht in a tangible, memorable way. For premium brands like Damen Yachting and Azure, a miniature yacht model offers an ideal way to showcase craftsmanship at boat shows, in showrooms, or during private presentations, enhancing brand storytelling and client engagement.
“Throughout the entire process, we stayed in close contact with the client.”

Captain’s Log: What Clients Say
Navigation your Questions:
Can you build in any scale or size?
Yes, up to full size (1:1). We craft models at any scale with a minimum finished length of 300 mm (≈11.8 in) to keep the fine details shipshape.
Can you meet a specific event date?
Usually, yes. Let’s set the course early. Share your deadline (launch, trade show, gifting) and we’ll confirm feasibility, schedule the build, and—if timing is tight—propose phased delivery or display-ready milestones.
Can you repair or modify an existing model?
Yes, our workshop keeps models in trim. We handle repairs, refurbishments, and post-finishing. Share photos and a short description; we’ll advise on feasibility and timing.
Do you ship internationally?
We don’t book transport directly, but we make the voyage simple. Your model is professionally packed for international transit. We can introduce trusted logistics partners, while most clients book the courier or freight service themselves.
Do you offer lighting, motion, or display furniture?
Aye—built-in options to suit your deck. We integrate lighting and moving elements, and can supply display furniture for exhibitions or trade shows.
What information do you need for a quote?
A clear brief keeps us on heading. Please include photos/reference images, vessel name, desired finished length, and scale (e.g., 1:20). For faster, sharper pricing: 3D/2D drawings, RAL color references, preferred base/plaque, and any extras (flight case, presentation packaging, lighting, motion).
Where are you based and who will I work with?
Port of call: Arnhem, the Netherlands. Projects are led by owners Geert van Uffelen and Stijn Cox, supported by our in-house workshop team from brief to handover.
