  1. Feadship 46.5-meter hull 689 arrives at De Vries for completion


    A new Feadship motoryacht is currently in the works and it recently arrived at the De Vries yard in Aalsmeer from Gouwerok who built the hull and superstructure. The design of this particular yacht, hull 689, is by Dubois Naval Architects and will have an interior by Redman Whiteley Dixon (RWD). Delivery of hull 689 is expected to be in 2015. Apart from its Dutch pegigree, the new yacht will be notable for its unusual accommodation layout; the entire upper deck is given over to a private owner’s apartment complete with a six-seat dining table on the aft deck and a comfortable saloon. The sleeping cabin occupies the forward section behind a panoramic sweep of windows. The top deck also features a private hot tub.
  2. Guests are also looked after with three spacious twin cabins and a double down below, while the VIP is found in the position more commonly claimed by the owner. This capacious main-deck suite occupies the forward section of the superstructure with spectacular sea views assured thanks to the glazed bulwarks. The hull windows will also allow plenty of daylight into the lower guest accommodation, where one of the twin cabins can convert to form a double. With a transatlantic range and displacing around 360 tonnes, this capable and luxurious craft is powered by two 1,450 horse power Caterpillar engines giving a top speed of 16.5-knots and very economical cruising at 14. If you cast your mind back a couple months ago, Feadship launched another yacht of similar length and similar overall design, called "COMO".
