Headquartered in the Netherlands, Feadship is an iconic shipyard that partners with owners across every continent. They often describe building a Feadship as one of the most thrilling – and fun – experiences of their life.
There are several key reasons why Feadship has achieved this iconic status. Firstly, it builds purely custom superyachts. What does this mean? In a nutshell, every yacht the yard builds is totally unique. Clients arrive with a vision, and Feadship starts with a blank sheet of paper to translate that vision into bespoke reality. Another key factor is Feadship’s experience, gained from a pedigree dating back to the 1800s. ‘Feadship’ is short for the First Export Association of Dutch Shipbuilders, and was established in 1949 when the founding family shipyards of De Vries and Van Lent and naval architect De Voogt came together to pitch their high-quality yachts to the American market.
