Feadship News

Interior looks very nice,
but when you look at the first picture of the upper deck, it's still a small landing area for a helicopter with that stairway on the side.

Its amazing the yacht now somehow looks like it was made for a chinese client.

These tiny patched on helicopter pads are just incredibly dangerous... any tiny thing that goes wrong and you have a big mess... and there is no firefighting team and rescue team standing by.

And it will go wrong... unless you never use it.

No, YN, I have not read a propaganda release... as they are generally designed to gain free advertising... and lure you in with self promoting dribble.

But I did think, adding that helicopter pad could not really be a real helicopter pad unless it was some micro mini home built crash-0-matic.

And, I just thought stylistically it made the thing look like a Junk... !

As to the F45 Feadship model other than being a little bit of an ugly duckling in exterior look...

The F45 probably has the best plan layout for a yacht its size ever... but it leaves me a bit cold as far as the standard none designer interiors and the cookie cutter exterior style. If you are spending 30 million plus... do you really want an off the rack one size fits all deal.

If Feadship had gone to a defined platform like the F45 with planned in ability to customize the exterior design and have within the layout format custom designer interiors they would have had a real winner. Prebuilt the thing and then add the exterior style features and interior to meet each customer... and really cut lead time and costs. While providing a sound well engineered, proven and reliable basic boat platform.

No truer words have ever been spoken. I cringe at some of the flotsam that drifts around the industry.

YF... is that the 62m Rasselas... wasn't it listed for 57 million dollars last I heard... ???

That is one of the nicer Feadships of recent memory.

I remember seeing that a target price for her was about $42 million but I know the article where you saw this number.

April Fool was sold at a ridiculous price for a Feadship!
