Pamela V is a 44.9-metre motor yacht built by Royal Hakvoort Shipyard in Monnickendam and delivered in 2011. With her displacement steel hull, aluminium superstructure, and timeless canoe stern, she pays homage to the iconic DIANA yachts of the 1980s while integrating modern naval architecture and engineering.

Diana Yacht Design was responsible for the exterior design, naval architecture, and engineering of this blue-water cruiser. Built for worldwide exploration, Pamela V offers a range of 5,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 12 knots and a maximum speed of 14 knots. Her hull form and structural design prioritise fuel efficiency and seakeeping, making her capable of comfortable long-range cruising across all ocean conditions.

Environmental responsibility was central to the design brief. The yacht is equipped with an Energy Storage Inverter (ESI) system, reducing her environmental footprint while maintaining operational performance. Forward of the raised wheelhouse, an integrated tender garage stores multiple tenders and watersport equipment, an uncommon feature for a yacht of this size.

The owner’s deck is entirely dedicated to the owner’s suite, featuring a forward-positioned master stateroom with 270-degree panoramic views. This layout required a raised wheelhouse, which Diana Yacht Design integrated without compromising the yacht’s classic lines. Below deck, four VIP staterooms provide accommodation for up to 12 guests, attended by a crew of 10.
Interior design by Jacques Grange complements the yacht’s exterior with refined materials and craftsmanship. Pamela V is a successful collaboration between owner, shipyard, and design teams resulting in a yacht that balances tradition with innovation.
