The Waarschip 870 represents a pivotal chapter in the evolution of the Dutch "selfbuild" legacy, bridging the gap between the aggressive racing spirit of the Quarter Tonners and the requirements of a dedicated family cruiser. Introduced as a more voluminous successor to the smaller 700series, the 870 utilizes the shipyard’s hallmark multichine, lapstrake construction, which confers both structural rigidity and a distinctive aesthetic. Built primarily from highgrade marine plywood (often Okoumé) and encapsulated in epoxy, the 870 was designed to be a "Half Tonner" for the cruising family, offering a balance of 8.70 meters (approximately 28.5 feet) in length and a generous 3.00meter beam that was significantly wider than its predecessors.
