Feadship has unveiled its latest superyacht, 59.5m (195ft) Project 713, the first Feadship to incorporate solar cells for auxiliary power generation. It is also equipped with diesel-electric propulsion and can run on non-fossil HVO.
The custom-made solar panels, utilizing the most efficient silicon cells available, are designed for optimal performance and durability, contributing significantly to the yacht's energy efficiency by producing up to 24MWh annually. Furthermore, Project 713's hull is optimized for cruising speed rather than top speed.
Further enhancing its eco-friendly credentials, the Project 713 superyacht has a high-efficiency diesel-electric power system, which includes four generators and a 400kWh battery to supply energy for propulsion and hotel loads. It is also the first new-build Feadship to feature FSC-certified plantation teak for all decking, ensuring sustainable wood harvesting practices.
The yacht has also undergone a Yacht Environmental Transparency Index (YETI) Assessment, scoring 35% below the average impact, making it one of the best in the fleet for minimizing ecological impact through various efficiency enhancements.
The exterior design of Project 713, characterized by its blue-grey hull and white superstructure, was designed by Studio De Voogt, while Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design delivered the contemporary interior.
The new launch signifies another progressive step towards Feadship's ambitious goal of becoming climate-neutral by 2030, following in the wake of OBSIDIAN and Project 821.
