84-meter Feadship 710 emerges from her shed

By Nina Done 21 April 2023

The Netherlands yard has revealed their latest yacht Feadship 710 as she emerged into the daylight from their Koninklijke De Vries facilities in Aalsmeer, where onlookers were wowed by her vast proportions.

Showcasing a low profile with masculine lines and seamless tinted glazing that wraps around her plumb bow, the motor yacht bears all the hallmarks of her Feadship pedigree. She also sports a metallic gray hull with teak accents on the lower edges of each faring on her superstructure, creating a distinctive look that marks her out against her contemporaries.

Her exterior design and naval architecture are from the boards of RWD, a long-time Feadship collaborator, while her interior styling is from the pen of French studio Monk Design, also in collaboration with RWD.

Next Generation Yachting

The yard have hailed the hybrid yacht as representing true innovation and first class engineering, with 4.5 times more electrical storage capacity than their first hybrid yacht SAVANNAH, with no drive shafts or rudders. Instead, electric drive and steering are done through a pair of electric Veth contra-rotating thrusters.

Project 710 serves as "the perfect next step on Feadship's path toward building zero-emission superyachts by 2030." This includes features such as an optimized hull at cruising speed, and the ability to run her generators on HVO, which is essentially hydro-treated vegetable oil, offering a 90% reduction in greenhouse gasses, helping Feadship and their clients work towards a net zero CO² fuel goal.

Furthermore, the yacht is also able to capture waste heat from the custom variable speed generators and air conditioner chiller to supply heat to the AC system, pool water, domestic water, engine preheating, and more. Meanwhile, an innovative heat pump system allows the yacht to draw heat from seawater.

Feadship have confirmed that “all these features (and more) were developed to connect to the surrounding environment within a next gen yachting platform that leaves minimal trace within that environment.”

Some of the standout features on board the 2,555 GT yacht include an observation lounge on her bow with double-curved glass floor-to-ceiling windows, an asymmetrical atrium stairwell leading to a formal dining area that can be opened up for guests to enjoy waterside views and an Aqua Lounge in her stern offering unique underwater vistas.

She is also fitted with the latest Starlink antennas enabling download speeds of up to 350MB anywhere in the world.

Experts in yachts of this size, it’s clear that the yard have brought all of their experience to bear on their most recent project. They currently have a number in-build projects in the pipeline, including the 120-meter Feadship 821 and 67.4-meter Feadship 823.

It is expected that Feadship 710 will undertake sea trials in the North Sea later this year. It is not yet known whether she will become available for luxury yacht charters.
