Feadship Heritage Fleet

Feadship Heritage Fleet The Feadship Heritage Fleet is an association for the owners of registered Feadships that are more than thirty years old.

It has three key objectives:
- To unite the owners of classic Feadship yachts
- To promote the continuance of the Feadship yachting heritage
- To organise events for members and offer them services related to their yachts. There are an incredible number of Feadships still sailing that were launched more than three decades ago. As well as being a testimony to Feadship standards of construction

, many of these yachts have been scrupulously maintained by their owners. They are very proud of the heritage of their yacht and still enjoy cruising the world in the style and comfort which is so very unique to the Feadship brand. The inaugural meeting of the association took place on 16 April 2013 in the historic De Roode Leeuw restaurant in Amsterdam, which was also the location of the very first Feadship meeting in late 1949. Now the activities of the Feadship Heritage Fleet continue to make history as we bring together the classics in a unique way.

History in the making โš“

The legendary designer Henri de Voogt set up his own company in 1913, and won races himself in his early โ€“ self-built โ€“ boats. Once the focus shifted exclusively to naval architecture, De Voogt began cooperating with the De Vries and Van Lent yards.

The partnership flourished after the creation of Feadship, and today this technical office for naval architecture and engineering is the creative center of the organization. As well as designing yachts in the classic Feadship tradition, De Voogt is increasingly asked to develop revolutionary new concepts. Thanks to generations of resourceful interaction between De Voogt and the Feadship yards, the final results are always spectacular.

The rich, multi-generational history of Feadship shapes everything we do today as a global leader in high-tech superyacht building. While our contemporary Feadships are literal and figurative giants of the global fleet, we remain dedicated to preserving our heritage whenever possible.A prime example is the radical rebuild of the 12-metre Mira at our Makkum yard. This project is revitalizing one of the very first yachts ever constructed under the Feadship name. Not only does it evoke fond memories of our early days, but the circular approach we're applying to this rebuild also underscores our commitment to future-compatible practices.Discover the fascinating journey of Miraโ€™s transformation and explore more about our legacy and innovation by watching our incredible series. Join us in celebrating the past while creating a brighter future!

History in the making! ๐Ÿ’Ž

This years marks 75 years since the formation of Feadship. While the three main participants in the "First Export Association of Dutch Shipbuilders" all have histories dating back decades further, the official establishment of what is today the world's leading superyacht brand took place in a cafรฉ in Amsterdam in 1949.

Pictured is the New York boat show in January 1953, where various Feadship ambassadors were celebrating the success of the Dutch brand in the United States.ย 

Stay tuned as over the course of this year we will share a snapshot of highlights of the first seven and a half decades of Feadship using rare and, in some cases, never previously published images to illustrate our ongoing quest for pure custom creation.ย

In 1978, Feadship delivered a yacht to E Clayton Gengras, a self-made millionaire who built his fortune through car sales, starting with the Stutz Bearcat before World War II. The Feadship, which was designed by De Voogt Naval Architects, was named Claybeth in honor of Gengras' daughters and was primarily used for family purposes and entertaining friends in Connecticut.

Although smoking was permitted on board, strict rules were in place, as evidenced by the standing orders found by one of Calypso's latest captains from that time period. The orders prohibited smoking in the main saloon and bunkrooms after 6 pm. This was a time when smoking was allowed on airlines.

Claybeth underwent a complete renovation in 2016, during which the interior was refreshed. Despite having new custom teakwork, furniture, systems, and paint, the yacht, now known as Calypso, still exudes the classic Feadship style from 1978.
