The bespoke 57-metre motor yacht HALO (hull 810) has splashed in a private ceremony at the Feadship Kaag yard. Built for the owner who had previously chartered Feadship luxury yacht HELIX, superyacht HALO boasts a radical exterior styling by Eidsgaard Design, in close collaboration with the owner.
“From a quarter-front view, the signature silver arches appear to run up, over and down the aft end of the yacht,” comments Peder Eidsgaard. “As Halo drives past, however, observers will notice that the aft tip of the arch is actually turning upwards. This creates a subtle playful tail, which is an important part of the yacht’s character.”
Bernardi Peschard was responsible for the interior design of luxury yacht HALO. The beautiful interiors feature light oak, dark woods and plenty of bronze inlays in an amazingly modern style. The owner’s stateroom as well as all the main guest suites can be found on the main deck, providing fantastic views through the windows. Moreover, the bridge deck hosts a VIP stateroom with the same degree of finish as the master cabin.
Among the many remarkable features aboard HALO superyacht belongs an incredibly large sun deck, as well as an amazing dark grey coloured custom Jacuzzi which stands out visually, and can be easily covered by an innovative carbon fibre sun awning built into the canopy that slides out electrically. Further forward, the vessel features an enclosed mooring deck, with hatches that open on both sides, and a helicopter platform. Aft are two huge garages either side of the centreline beach club for two custom eight-metre tenders. The tenders are launched by an innovative system of overhead beam cranes and the door of this area slides up and under the sun pad on the main deck above to open to the water. Furthermore, HALO offers a wonderful selection of diving equipment, including 28 bottles.
Specifically designed for world cruising, super yacht HALO (hull 810) is run by twin MTU 12V4000M63 diesel engines. She can comfortably cruise at 16 knots, and has a range of 5000 nautical miles.
“We were delighted to respond to your request after you enjoyed the Feadship experience during a charter trip onboard Helix,” Feadship director Dick van Lent told the owner of HALO yacht during the launch ceremony. “After you had felt for yourself the perfect craftsmanship, fine detailing and unrivalled comfort at sea that a Feadship offers, you challenged us to build an extraordinary custom superyacht of your own. This short timeframe required an extensive amount of 3D modelling during the engineering design process and leveraged on the enormous organisational experience of the craftsmen at Feadship. Thanks to the close cooperation with the exterior and interior designers, Halo is a remarkable achievement in every respect.”
