Combining style with functionality, Mylin IV was the first Feadship to have a bulbous bow, designed and developed in cooperation with the Dutch Maritime Research Institute (MARIN). Used on commercial ships for over forty years, such a bow offered a 10% reduction in hull resistance at top speed for Mylin IV – as it would three years later on White Rabbit - allowing these yachts to reach speeds of 20 and 18.3 knots, respectively.
