TOM VAN OOSSANEN PHOTO Dutch boatbuilder Zeelander Yachts today announced the appointment of Floris Koopmans as business development manager. Koopmans has worked at Zeelander since 2017 in marketing, brand management and sales.
Koopmans will work alongside his father, Sietse Koopmans, Zeelander founder and chairman.
“When I started Zeelander, I aimed to create a line of yachts that were simply the best that money can buy,” Sietse Koopmans said in a statement. “Floris understands that vision, and having grown up immersed in the yachting world and Zeelander’s legacy, he brings perspective and capacity that adds great value.”
Added Floris Koopmans: “Zeelander forges objects of desire. In my new role, I want to gain a better understanding of the owners’ needs to ensure every yacht and experience is perfectly tailored to that desire.”
