The Feadship m/y Space is the first of the new series of yacht by Feadship, called the SL series. The m/y Space was launched today, Saturday 26, May 2007 at Feadship Van Lent Yard. She is a very nice yacht in pictures.
Her keel was laid on Thursday, April 25th, 2005 at the
Kaag Island. The F45 Vantage concept took over 2 years and some 5000 man hours to complete. All of this hard work came to fruition with today's launching.
The hard work is not totally over as yet because she still has to go the the finishing hall and undergo sea trials before being handed over to the new owner.
The Second F45 is due to be launched this year as well but later on.
