Holld 74

A New Competitor for Gunboat?

The large all-carbon catamaran sector is definitely a niche market – the cost of the material and the high-end equipment that goes with it justify prices that are double those of a “standard” fiberglass unit. Nevertheless, this sector inspires dreams and can motivate the most daring projects, with Dutch shipyard Holld set to unveil its Holld 74 in 2026.

This semi-custom catamaran features sharply inverted bows and deck lines, a sleek sail plan, and a very successful coachroof design. The overall look is somewhat reminiscent of the Gunboat 72, especially as we’re told a flybridge version is planned – except that the Holld has no daggerboards.

Based in Zwartsluis (60 km/40 mi ENE of Amsterdam), Holld is making its debut in the world of multihulls, but the yard has decades of expertise in composite construction for superyachts. The quality of finish guaranteed by Dutch builders is well known: the interiors will be superb. The Holld 74 will combine luxury and advanced technology through its onboard systems with digital controls. The builder’s catalog also features two other models, the Holld 82 and 82 Fly.
