About us
AML International
Specialist in navigation, communication and marine electronics
AML International is back on the water. After a period as part of Holland Nautic, we are sailing under our own name again as a subsidiary, operating from Apeldoorn and Bruinisse. From these two locations, we supply navigation electronics, communication, and monitoring equipment to watersports enthusiasts in the Benelux and Germany.
With over fifty years of experience in the maritime world, we know what happens on board. Sailboat or motorboat, inland waters or the North Sea, a weekend on the Grevelingen or a crossing to England: the questions are always the same. What do I see, what do I hear, and where am I? That is what our entire business is about.
We are an official dealer for B&G, Simrad, Actisense, Maretron, and ACR. This is deliberately not an endless list of brands. They are the brands whose technology we know, for which we keep parts in stock, and where we have a direct line of communication if something goes wrong along the way.
Our mission
Technology that works, explanations you understand
Our mission is simple: ensuring your equipment does what you expect it to, even when it is blowing hard and getting dark. Reliable, properly connected, and tailored to the way you sail.
That often means we advise you differently than what you originally called for. A larger screen solves nothing if the underlying network isn't right, and the most expensive autopilot steers poorly if the drive unit doesn't suit your boat. We prefer to calculate everything correctly once rather than having a box returned later.
What we focus on
- Personal. We translate your plans into clear choices and take the research work off your hands.
- Expert. We work with the manufacturer's specifications, not assumptions. If we aren't sure about something, we look it up.
- Reliable. After delivery, we remain available for support, parts, and maintenance.
Our services
From advice to installation and service
We don't just supply boxes. For boaters who want peace of mind on board, we handle the entire process, from the first sketch on the kitchen table to maintenance a few seasons later.
Advice and design. Personal and practical, based on your vessel, your sailing area, and your requirements. Call or email with your boat details, and we will help calculate the requirements. We will also tell you when it is better to choose something simpler.
Installation and integration. Installation and linking of equipment and networks. NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183, and ethernet, set up in a way that allows you to expand later rather than starting over.
Maintenance and service. Software updates, replacement parts, and repairs. We keep your system reliable, even if the device is a few years old.
Our brands
Five brands, one cohesive system on board
The brands we carry complement each other. Whoever combines them has everything related to an on-board network under one roof: navigation, communication, monitoring, and safety.
Navigation for sailors. Chartplotters, radar, instruments, and autopilots, with sailing features you won't find on other brands.
View B&G
Navigation for motorboats and sports fishermen. Multifunction displays, radar, sonar, and complete VHF radio systems.
View Simrad
The connections. Gateways and converters between NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183, and your laptop or tablet, plus the components for the backbone.
View Actisense
Monitoring. Tank levels, batteries, temperature, wind, and weather, read and monitored on a screen.
View Maretron
Safety. Emergency beacons, SART transponders, survival VHF radios, rescue lighting, and searchlights.
View ACR
Locations
Apeldoorn and Bruinisse
Two locations, one team. Visits are by appointment only; please call or email in advance.
Background
Certified and well-connected
As a subsidiary of Holland Nautic and an authorized dealer for the brands we carry, we have direct lines for support, parts, and documentation. That means quick help, the right parts, and configurations that actually work. It also means the information on our product pages comes directly from the manufacturer, not a price comparison site.
