Pollard Fides OC - 15m
The Pollard Fides OC is a steel motor yacht designed around comfort, usability and long-distance cruising. Built by Pollard Jachtbouw, the yacht reflects a clear and understated design language: practical in function, calm in appearance and timeless in character.
For this project, Trimm Design was responsible for the yacht design and naval architecture. The result is a balanced 14.99-metre motor yacht with generous proportions, strong visual identity and a layout focused on relaxed life on board.
The Fides OC is not designed to follow short-lived trends. Instead, every line, volume and detail supports a yacht that feels reliable, refined and purposeful — both at the quay and underway.
COMPACT IN SIZE, GENEROUS IN EXPERIENCE
Behind the calm exterior profile of the Pollard Fides OC lies an intelligent spatial concept. Designed around the Center Sleeper configuration, the yacht creates additional usable volume below deck by slightly lowering the central floor level beneath the saloon — all without compromising its balanced proportions or timeless exterior character.
This smart design solution gives the layout greater flexibility, with the possibility of two or even three cabins depending on the owner’s wishes. Combined with practical features such as side access doors, a stern garage with electric hatch and a hydraulically operated mast, the Fides OC offers a refined balance between comfort, functionality and elegant styling.
The result is a compact steel motor yacht with surprising interior volume, thoughtful usability and a calm, enduring design language.

From design vision to steel construction
The Pollard Fides OC is being built by Pollard Jachtbouw in Steenwijk, a Dutch shipyard known for high-quality steel yachts and hands-on craftsmanship.
For this project, Trimm Design supported the layout development, exterior styling and construction-oriented design. In close collaboration with Pollard’s in-house team, each design choice was aligned with the yard’s practical build philosophy and proven steel construction methods.
The result is a well-balanced steel motor yacht where elegant proportions, smart space planning and buildability come together — designed for comfort, ease of maintenance and the flexibility to be tailored to the owner’s preferences.
