Yesterday the launch process of the 118-metre Feadship 1010 started, but due to her impressive size and draft, the stern had to be lifted before she could be floated out. By the end of the day yesterday she was halfway out of the shed and her build number NB 1010 could be seen embellished across her transom. This morning the shipyard continued with the launch and SuperYacht Times was onside to capture the first images as the 118-metre Feadship 1010 came out of her build shed.

Featuring exterior design from Espen Øino International, the superyacht was first unveiled in late 2020 when she was moved from the metal construction facility near Rotterdam, to the Feadship outfitting facility in Makkum.

The yacht Feadship 1010 is only slightly smaller than the 118.8-metre Feadship Project 821, currently under construction, making her the second largest superyacht built by the Dutch yacht builder and the largest to have been launched.

The 117-metre Oceanco superyacht Infinity, which was launched and delivered this year, has a volume of 4,978 GT so the two yachts are likely in close competition for the top spot. The position as the largest yacht by volume built in the Netherlands will be taken by the Feadship 821 when the yacht is completed next year, with her estimated interior volume of over 7,000 GT.

Another very large superyacht currently under construction by a Dutch shipyard is the 120-metre Amels superyacht Signature, which is due for delivery in 2025 and has an estimated interior volume of over 5,500 GT.
