Owners Comments

"Built by Dutchmen, for Dutchmen the Banjer 37 demonstrates the qualities for which the Dutch are rightly renowned: the hull lay-up is heavy by modern standards with extensive use of woven rovings.  The timber interior furniture, trim and sole boards are of teak and all of a generous scantling.  She is a safe, dry and predictable sea-ship with an easy motion , the weather-proof wheelhouse makes passage making a pleasure"
