Worth knowing
Scheepswerf Porsius B.V.; cover, cost and conditions
Scheepswerf Porsius B.V. is a Dutch yard best known for large motorsailers, above all the Albaran range. One well documented example is the Albaran White Star of RORC, built by Porsius in aluminium in 1986 with an exterior by De Vries Lentsch and naval architecture by Oehlmann. Alongside the Albaran the yard built the Portia motor yachts and a sailing yacht called the Carena, all built for long passages; the White Star of RORC, for instance, sleeps up to twelve guests in five cabins.
Our records list 11 models: five motorsailers, two sailing yachts and four motor yachts. The Albaran range counts six of them, from the 16.1 metre Albaran 16 to the 29 metre Albaran 26; five are motorsailers, while the 18.8 metre Albaran 17 is listed as a sailing yacht. The Albaran 17, 20, 23 and 26 appear from 1979, the 16 and 19 from 1982, and the range ends in 1988 and 1989. The Portia motor yachts are older: the 9.5 metre Portia 950 and the 11.4 metre 1140 from 1966, the Portia 37 and 42 from 1970. The 12 metre Carena 39 runs from 1968 to 1982. Build years span 1966 to 1989.
Every Porsius vessel is now a classic with decades of use behind it, and most have been refitted at least once. Aluminium hulls need watchful care where fittings meet the plating, and an owner should keep paperwork on every refit. Large motorsailers like the Albaran are made for long seasons afloat, so a berth with good access for maintenance matters as much as the sailing area.
