Saffier SE 27 Leisure wins European Yacht of the Year 2021
For the third time in our history, we are proud to announce that Saffier Yachts has won the prestigious European Yacht of the Year Award. This year, the honour goes to the Saffier SE 27 Leisure, a model that reflects our ongoing commitment to quality, innovation and the pure joy of sailing.

The European Yacht of the Year is considered the most important award in the sailing industry. It is judged by a panel of twelve independent yachting journalists from across Europe. Each year, they test and evaluate dozens of new yachts on design, performance, and overall sailing experience. To be named winner by such an experienced and respected jury is a true mark of excellence.
This latest recognition for the SE 27 Leisure is not just a celebration of one model — it’s a confirmation of our long-term vision. A vision focused on combining single-handed sailing, comfort and craftsmanship in every yacht we build.
We thank everyone who has been part of the journey — from our team in IJmuiden to our loyal owners and dealers worldwide. This award fuels our drive to keep pushing forward, delivering exceptional yachts that offer pure sailing joy.
“To be selected as a winner by such a professional jury for the third time is incredible. It places us in a very select group of yacht builders, and we are proud to represent Dutch craftsmanship on this level.”
Dennis Hennevanger, CEO of Saffier Yachts
