Feadship launches Project 827 SAKURA: A vision of modern luxury
Feadship celebrates another milestone as Project 827 SAKURA emerges from the shed at the Amsterdam facility. Measuring 71.76 metres, this graceful and forward-thinking yacht is now ready for final outfitting and sea trials, marking a refined new entry into the Feadship fleet.
This Feadship Custom motor yacht features exterior design and naval architecture by De Voogt Naval Architects. With her elegant lines, low bulwark, and perfect proportions from bow to stern, she projects a distinctive sense of poise and calm. From the extended sundeck forward to the wide swim platform aft, the yacht masterfully blends spacious deck areas with generous interiors designed for multi-generational enjoyment. Five decks of living space, enhanced by floor-to-ceiling glass, offer a social layout that prioritises natural light, connection and flexibility.
Project 827’s propulsion is driven by a next-generation diesel-electric system, a testament to Feadship’s unmatched experience in hybrid innovation since the launch of SAVANNAH in 2015. This future-focused approach combines IMO Tier III-compliant generators with electric thrusters, ensuring a cruising experience that is quieter, cleaner, and more responsive, with a system that is engineered to support sustainable energy solutions. Specifically, SAKURA is powered by twin 1700Hp Veth diesel engines, which allow a top speed of 14.5 knots and a cruising range of 4500 Nautical miles.
A dedicated owner’s deck, rare for a yacht of this size, offers a panoramic master stateroom with wrap-around glass, direct access to a private breakfast area, and a hot tub. This secluded level is made possible by the raised pilothouse.
The main deck aft is the yacht’s social centre. The saloon, enclosed by full-height glass, opens onto an expansive aft deck with a 7.00-metre pool and sun loungers. Teak-clad stadium steps lead down to the swim platform, reinforcing Project 827’s distinctive profile.
Her brand-new interior, after a design by FM Architettura, can accommodate up to 14 guests across 7 capacious staterooms, with 10 additional cabins available for use as preferred. All guest accommodation is located on the main deck, where larger windows and increased ceiling height enhance the sense of space. Four staterooms and two VIP suites offer flexible comfort, with the VIPs able to combine into a full-beam suite. Beneath the aft deck, a wellness space sits just steps from the swim platform and is easily accessible to everyone on board.
Project 827 will boast both ample up-to-date equipment and luxurious amenities that will safeguard an unrivalled luxury yacht experience on board, setting the stage for innovation, luxury, and excellence in craftsmanship for the Dutch-built yacht industry.
