Manufacturer’s Comments:
VAYU is a Nordia 70 PC customized and finished by Dokar Yachts in Istanbul. She embodies all the characteristics of a true Nordia—strong, elegant, and luxurious—now enhanced with performance.

Van Dam’s long-held ambition was a yacht with sleeker lines, more aggressive styling, and sharper handling. While Nordias are already celebrated for their long-distance cruising, VAYU is a Performance Cruiser that retains comfort and stability. She is a true Grand Tourer, offering exhilarating sailing without compromising refinement.
