Feadship has unveiled its impressive 101.00-metre yacht “Moonrise” at its facility in Makkum. The new build incorporates numerous technological enhancements.
The new “Moonrise” has a predecessor—also called Moonrise—which was delivered in 2020. The new vessel carries forward the same graceful design traits, from the sleek exterior lines and powerful vertical bow to the elegant paintwork in grey and snow-white tones, the shipyard states.
Although the two vessels share similar exterior lines by Studio De Voogt and sophisticated interior designs by Rémi Tessier, the new “Moonrise” incorporates numerous technological enhancements, as well as many design refinements that further enhance the yacht’s beauty and functionality.
“Moonrise” uses Starlink
The most obvious exterior change—and a first for Feadship—is the complete absence of the domes typically found on superyachts. The previous vessel had five domes housing VSAT and TVRO antennas, but the new version features Starlink satellite receivers seamlessly integrated into the yacht’s superstructure.
This not only improves communication and streaming capabilities but also preserves the yacht’s sleek aesthetic. The mast is taller, the sun deck more expansive—featuring a massage area, gym, and hairdressing salon—while the exterior decks and swim platform have been extended. The yacht also boasts an owner’s deck and a private cinema on the bridge deck.
Less noise on board
The naval architecture has been optimised to ensure maximum comfort, whether underway or at anchor. Special attention was paid to minimising noise levels, with the design of the propellers and appendages reducing both underwater noise and interior sound levels, ensuring an exceptional onboard experience.
This achievement was made possible by the first known fully resilient-mounted anchor winch foundation, featuring optimised chain routing.
Moonrise is currently undergoing further outfitting and will proceed with sea trials before being delivered to its owner. The level of detail and custom engineering once again showcases Feadship’s commitment to innovation and luxury in superyacht design.
