Flevo 1495 Spiegelkotter designed by Martin Bekebrede (responsible for many other highly regarded designs including the Noordkaper range, Vri-Jon OK and Steeler NG) and built by Flevo Jachtbouw of Nikerk, Netherlands in 1996 over a period of 18 months and first commissioned in 1998. Green steel displacement round bilge hull (topsides professionally resprayed with Awlgrip paint in 2005, bottom sandblasted and coated with Jotun epoxy in 2011) with long keel profile protecting propeller and stabilising bilge keels to reduce roll (professionally fitted in 2010). Cream steel superstructure and decks professionally resprayed with Awlgrip paint in 2015. Reantifouled and new anodes 2023. Dual station hydraulic wheel steering. Her air draft is a very useful 3.5m (11'6") with the mast lowered allowing access to much of the French canal system, and 10.5m (34'5") with the mast up.

We have had the pleasure of owning 'Wave' for fifteen years and spent the summers mostly cruising the Baltic/Norwegian coastal areas, including visiting the Lofoten Islands and northern parts of Norway. Her first owner was a Dutch ship owner and when we were looking for a long term cruising boat the quality of construction, fit-out and engineering really stood out above anything else we saw. She is very well insulated so is a most comfortable and spacious boat to live on year round, she is always warm and dry, we have never needed to use a dehumidifier even in cold, damp conditions. We have maintained her to the highest standards both cosmetically and mechanically - essential when cruising in the more remote parts of Scandinavian waters. She has been stored ashore in heated halls for most of the last fifteen winters, and all of the four winters since last repainted.
