Gallant lady
Few - if any - owners understand the complexities of motoryacht design and construction like Jim and Jan Moran. Over a period of 50 years or more, they have commissioned scores of major projects, including no less than seven Feadships. Launched between 1984 and 1995, all the Feadship Gallant Lady's had a definite signature of their own, with Jim creating a design for each exterior and Jan overseeing the interior. The De Vries yard was therefore delighted to accommodate their request for 'one more Feadship', which at 5121m (168'0') will be shallow enough to cruise the inland waterways and park at a designated dock behind the Moran's home.
The new Gallant Lady has been built in aluminum with lightweight and high-tech composites for the upper decks. In many ways her exterior profile sees a renaissance of the most recent Gallant Lady built at De Vries, while taking into account the latest developments at Feadship in terms of complex shapes. A key new styling feature is the pointed oval design of the forward section of the three superstructure decks, which helps give the yacht a 'sleeker' look.

FB235 58m displacement motor yacht
Built for a European owner, 58m SUNDAY has evolved from the successful 56m full displacement yachts GALAXY and ALLEGRO, delivered in 2005.
The yacht comprises five decks. Her profile is very similar to that of her predecessors, but SUNDAY’s lines are considerably enhanced by the addition of two metres in length overall. This has been achieved in “slices” - one metre amidships and the other forward. This, combined with SUNDAY’s smart navy blue paint job makes for a very sleek and elegant yacht indeed.
A further, contemporary variation has been the addition of wing control station balconies on each side of the bridge deck .
The boat’s interior design is the result of the collaboration between Studio IPSO architects and the owner’s wife, a very important collector and connoisseur of modern art. Studio IPSO drew their inspiration from the famous architects who designed and created the “Normandy” ocean liner back in the 1930s.
All exterior lines of the boat are by Stefano Natucci.

All too often new additions to the global luxury motoryacht fleet are described as revolutionary breakthroughs, claims that are justified in terms of size, technology or new heights of splendor. A truly radical shift in thinking is much rarer, however... And the phenomenal new 72.80 meter Feadship Predator might just fit the billing.
During the launch ceremony at the Koninklijke De Vries yard in Aalsmeer (NL) on 5 January 2008, all eyes were on Predator's sensational reverse bow. This bow forms part of the aggressive new styling brief at the core of the client's wish-list.
'The owner arrived at the yard in late 2004 with a request that we partner on something different than anything else afloat," comments Henk de Vries. "Together with De Voogt Naval Architects and Bannenberg Designs (interior), we have created a super-sleek and highly sophisticated yacht that is genuinely innovative."
