VanDutch 40 Shadow Yacht Rental in Miami

Built for up to 10 guests, the VanDutch 40 Shadow is a 40 ft open day boat for a small group that wants the skyline and the water without a big-yacht schedule. A black soft top covers the helm, and a cabin below deck with cream sofas gives a birthday lunch, an anniversary or a swim day a place to retreat.

Start at the stern, where a bench of three cushions with bolster pillows spans the boat above a teak swim platform. Ahead of it, grey seating wraps a small table in the cockpit, and the helm sits under the soft top. A few wooden steps lead below to a cabin with cream sofa seating, a counter with a microwave and a coffee machine, skylight hatches and a porthole. Next to it is a head with a sink and a window.

Four hours ($2,000) cover a loop through the Venetian Islands and past Star Island as the light turns gold. Six hours ($2,600) add a swim stop at Nixon Sandbar, and eight hours ($3,350) leave room for a morning at Haulover Sandbar and a slow ride back down Biscayne Bay.

  • Stern Bench and Teak Platform Three cushions with bolster pillows sit one step above a teak swim platform at the water.
  • Cockpit Under a Soft Top Grey seating around a small table, with a black soft top over the helm.
  • Cabin With Skylight Hatches Cream sofa seating, a counter with a microwave and a coffee machine, and light from the hatches and a porthole.
  • Head With a Window A head with a sink, a mirror and a window, next to the cabin.
  • Golden-Hour Skyline Ride Settle on the stern bench and watch Star Island and the downtown towers turn gold.
  • Small Birthday Lunch A table in the cockpit for the toast and a cabin counter for the cake and the coffee.
  • Swim From the Teak Platform At a sandbar the group drops from the platform straight into the water.
  • Kids and Grandparents A cabin with sofas and a head gives the youngest and the oldest a calm corner between swims.

What gives the VanDutch 40 Shadow its look?

A black soft top over the helm, a bench of three bolstered cushions across the stern and cream sofas in the cabin. The teak swim platform behind the bench gives the stern a clean line at the water.

How do 10 guests spread out on the VanDutch 40 Shadow?

The cockpit seating, the stern bench and the cabin sofas share the group. Most of the time is spent outside, so a smaller group can move between the bench and the cockpit table.

Is 4 hours enough on the VanDutch 40 Shadow, or should we book 6 or 8?

Four hours are enough for one good outing: a loop of the Venetian Islands, Star Island and the skyline. Choose 6 hours for a swim at Nixon Sandbar without watching the clock, and 8 hours for two stops with a long ride between them.

What is the cabin on the VanDutch 40 Shadow used for?

It is a place to sit out of the sun and the wind. It has cream sofa seating, a counter with a microwave and a coffee machine, skylight hatches and a porthole, and the head with its sink is next to it.

How do guests get from the boat into the water?

Through the teak swim platform behind the stern bench, which sits close to the surface. At a sandbar stop the group steps off the platform, and the cockpit seating is a few steps away for drying off.
