In the world of luxury yachts, where exquisite design, superior craftsmanship, and unrivaled quality define the playing field, the sale of a noteworthy vessel always stirs the seas of the industry. Today, we recount such a story, the tale of the stunning Feadship yacht Callisto, which recently found a new harbor to call home.
Masterfully brokered by industry veterans Alex Lees-Buckley of Camper & Nicholsons and Bruce Brakenhoff of Edmiston USA, this sale marks a pivotal transition. Lees-Buckley, a C&N senior sales broker, expertly represented the seller, while Brakenhoff, renowned for his knack for the perfect buyer-seller match, was instrumental in introducing the buyer.
Callisto, a gem among yachts, emerged from the esteemed shipyards of De Vries Feadship in 2006. With its impressive length of 65.20 meters (214 feet), this floating marvel was home to 6 luxurious cabins, providing luxurious accommodation for 12 guests and a crew of 16.
The Callisto's allure lies not only in its significant size but its blend of classic and contemporary. With exterior design and naval architecture firmly rooted in the Feadship tradition, Callisto exudes an air of timeless elegance, a beacon of nautical heritage. Yet, step inside, and guests are greeted by the subtle sophistication of a Terence Disdale interior, a perfect marriage of luxury and comfort.
Other key features that set Callisto apart include its expansive interior volume, a guest elevator adding a touch of convenience to opulence, a fully-equipped gym to cater to the wellness needs of its residents, and vast exterior deck spaces perfect for social gatherings or serene oceanic solitude.
In 2021, Callisto underwent a multi-million euro refit by Feadship, further enhancing its appeal and affirming its place among the best yachts afloat. A round of applause is due to the sellers, captains, and crew for maintaining this magnificent vessel to the highest of standards.
As we congratulate the new owners of Callisto, we anticipate this sale marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter in luxury yachting.
