The Friendship 22 is a quintessential Dutch pocket cruiser that bridged the gap between trailer-sailers and coastal yachts during the fiberglass boom of the late 1970s. Designed by the renowned naval architect Dick Koopmans Sr., the vessel was a runaway success for Jachtwerf Meijer in Balk, Netherlands. Its popularity was cemented following a glowing 1978 review in the German publication Die Yacht, which catalyzed a production surge resulting in nearly 80 hulls completed in a single year. The boat’s enduring appeal lies in its "big boat" feel within a compact 22-foot frame, offering a blend of stability and functional living space that remains a benchmark in the European brokerage market. While the brand eventually expanded into larger yachts, the 22 remains the definitive entry point for sailors seeking Dutch build quality in a manageable size.
