The leading Dutch builder, Feadship, is proud to announce the launch of the brand new 44,20m (145’) motor yacht Moon Sand (hull #690) that has recently hit the water at De Vries Scheepsbouw in Makkum. Mixing up practicality with perfection, superyacht Moon Sand has been beautifully designed by Feadship De Voogt Design, with interior design by Bannenberg & Rowell.
“Over the past months we have completed an exceptional number of Feadships, ranging in size from 44 to over 100 metres,” said Feadship Sales Director Bas Nederpelt at the launch ceremony. “We have also had the pleasure to work with some marvellous exterior designers, such as Ed Dubois, Tim Heywood and Andrew Winch. Moon Sand is a testimony to the design excellence we at Feadship can offer clients ourselves.”
Created to fulfill the wishes of her highly experienced owners, the striking Moon Sand yacht boasts a relatively modern exterior profile with classic touches. Three key elements in the design of the vessel are light, space and freedom of choice in terms of recreation.
Bas Nederpelt added: “Take the way the modern superstructure element rises above the classic Feadship bow – and how this element connects with the whole design via the strong and continuous profile line – and you can see why Moon Sand is a superior fusion of contemporary and traditional styles. Her sleek look reflects the fact that her senior designer Tanno Weeda and his team at Feadship have worked tirelessly to create a unified design. And they have certainly succeeded.”
Owner’s representative James Hutchinson agreed with these sentiments: “Even the smallest details are important to Moon Sand’s owners and I am proud to have been a part of this project. Working with Feadship makes everything achievable as they know that the key to a truly magnificent yacht is not just what you see, but also the meticulous attention to detail that you don’t. Moon Sand is the result of a collective passion from the owners, designer and shipyard to deliver a truly exceptional yacht and – as one of the most specified ever in her class – she is precisely that.”
Luxury yacht Moon Sand is a family vessel providing the maximum privacy to her owners and guests, thanks to the stylish glass windscreens. There is also an amazingly generous sun deck, hosting quite untraditionally the tender, while the main deck features an ingenious swimming pool with a lifting floor system. Thanks to this, a section of the deck lowers down to provide a desirable pool depth.
Super yacht Moon Sand provides deluxe accommodation in the owners’ quarters that feature a study and a huge stateroom with two bathrooms and two walk-in dressing rooms. There is also space for six guests in three guest suites. Two of these can be converted into a single stateroom with a separate seating area, in addition to a generous full-beam VIP stateroom, positioned forward.
It is not known whether Moon Sand will be available for charter, although we’re sure many clients would like to experience this beauty. Feadships in general are renowned for their immaculate craftsmanship, safety and custom-made luxury. Most of these yachts were built with private ownership in mind, however there is a nice selection of Feadship charter yachts for those interested in experiencing an unparalleled vacation aboard one of these.
