The 91.8-metre Feadship superyacht Feadship 1012 has been launched from the Makkum facility in the Netherlands. Notably, she is the first Feadship to carry full Hybrid Electric Class notation.

Her hull was later launched in December 2022 at the Slob yard and transported to Makkum, where it was joined to her superstructure.

The steel and aluminium yacht was designed for a repeat client who came to the custom project with informed requests based on his long experience of yachting.

As well as this, larger hatches can be seen further forward on the Feadship 1012‘s superstructure, to conceal her 10-metre tenders, ski boat and various water toys.

Her sundeck serves as an observation vantage point with a forward-facing sofa and sun loungers, while the aft deck is used for storing two rescue tenders.
