First ice-class Feadship leaves construction hall

In advance of her delivery at a later date, Feadship hull #701 has seen the light of day outside the Feadship yard in Aalsmeer. While few details can be shared about this project, the fact that she is the first Feadship to be built to ice-class notation suggests the yacht will not be spending all her time in the more traditional cruising areas.

The exterior of this 51-metre custom explorer comes from the boards of Feadship’s in-house designers at Studio De Voogt and the interior has been created together with Bannenberg & Rowell Design. Twin Caterpillar C32 engines will give a top speed of 14.5 knots while the yacht has a range of 4,500 nautical miles and luxury accommodations for twelve people.

The name of this newest member of the Feadship family will be revealed after the private naming ceremony has taken place.

Official press images of the yacht will be published later.
