The new superyacht Musashi on her maiden voyage

The 88 Musashi was launched 11 months ago at the Feadship De Vries Makkum facility, and was the second yacht launched in Feadship's XL program. She was built for an experienced yachtsman who previously owned an ever larger yacht, and many elements of the owner's previous yachts can be found on board Musashi. On May 2nd of this year, the yard launched Musashi's sistership, christened Fountainhead. To date both Mushashi and Fountainhead are the largest Feadship superyachts ever built, but Feadship has currently two larger yachts in-build; the 99 metre XL 1004 and Royal Van Lent has a contract for a 101.50 metre superyacht.
