Feadship Launches 45.7m Project 718 Hull in Aalsmeer
Feadship has technically launched the hull of Project 718, a 45.7‑metre superyacht, from the Gouwerok Shipyard in Aalsmeer, the Netherlands. The move marks the completion of the yard-based hull construction phase and the transfer of the structure to Feadship’s adjacent facility, where outfitting will continue.
The hull is all‑aluminium and has already been transported to the nearby Feadship facility for fit-out work. Delivery of Project 718 is scheduled for 2027, placing the build on a clear timeline as it progresses from structural completion into systems installation and interior outfitting.
Tri-deck 45.7m Design: Estimated 425GT and Specs
Detailed public information on Project 718 remains limited, but it is estimated that the tri‑deck yacht will measure 425GT. Naval architecture work is credited to Feadship De Voogt Naval Architects, indicating the project has been developed in‑house with Feadship’s established design and engineering standards.
The use of an all‑aluminium hull speaks to weight and performance priorities typical of contemporary Feadship builds, while the tri‑deck layout suggests a focus on generous deck space and accommodation volume within a sub‑50‑metre platform. Further technical and interior particulars are expected to emerge as outfitting progresses at Feadship’s facility.
Project 718’s Launch Signals Feadship’s Ongoing Output
Project 718 is currently the smallest of 13 Feadship new-builds under construction, a program that ranges from mid-size yachts to the 101.2-metre Project 1014, which was recently observed being transported through the Dutch canal system. The simultaneous work on multiple large projects illustrates Feadship’s capacity to manage a diverse production pipeline.
With the hull now in for outfitting and a 2027 delivery target, the immediate next steps are systems integration, interior completion, and sea trials ahead of handover. The launch of Project 718, therefore, confirms steady progress across Feadship’s yard and provides a clear milestone to watch as the build moves toward final completion.
