In the realm of superyachts, where exquisite craftsmanship meets unparalleled luxury, one name resounds louder than any other: Feadship. Their most recent accomplishments at the 2023 BOAT International World Superyacht Awards (WSA), held on May 20th, have only served to underscore this reputation, marking a remarkable hat-trick of wins that's set the superyacht industry abuzz.
At the glittering gala held in Istanbul, Turkey, Feadship brought home not one but three prestigious prizes. Callisto, a bespoke gem in the crown of Feadship's fleet, triumphed over the fierce competition, securing the coveted Neptune award for 'best semi-displacement motor yacht 42m and above.' Simultaneously, the trailblazing Shinkai earned a Judges’ Special Award, and Juice, the third nominated jewel, received a Judges’ Commendation, rounding out Feadship's triad of triumphs.
Feadship, an epitome of excellence in the realm of large custom yachts, demonstrated that grandeur isn't merely about size. Their dual Neptunes and Judges’ Commendation at this year’s World Superyacht Awards is a testament to their unwavering dedication to delivering unparalleled quality and their continuous push for innovation, regardless of yacht dimensions.
On the 65-meter Callisto, Feadship has skillfully balanced the time-honored charm of classic lines with a modern edge, ensuring the owners' satisfaction. This sleek, contemporary vessel emerged as a deserving victor, captivating the judges with her impeccable construction standards and elegant aesthetics.
Shinkai, an extraordinary 54.90-meter explorer yacht, stood out for its unique capabilities. Furnished with state-of-the-art exploration gear, including FLIR night-vision cameras, 3D sonar, and seafloor-charting equipment, it's indeed a force to be reckoned with, drawing unanimous approval from the judges.
Juice, the third jewel in Feadship's triumphant triad, impressed with its sleek exterior lines and innovative design that promotes natural light flow. Such an exceptional build quality didn't go unnoticed, earning it a well-deserved Judges’ Commendation.
Feadship Sales Director, Bas Nederpelt, was present to receive the awards on stage. He commented, "We are very proud of our clients’ trust to build a Feadship, whether they dream of a swift, comfortable bespoke yacht like the 42.50-meter Callisto, a full custom expedition yacht like the 54.90-meter Shinkai, or a very refined and timeless masterpiece like the 71.10-meter Juice."
