Crew quarters are taken to an exceptional quality level even by Feadship’s industry-leading standards. The interior feels like a genuine home-from-home and will have a broad appeal while being entirely unique. As well as highlighting the rich experience at the Feadship yards, it gives me as project manager a complete sense of security that everything will be finished to perfection.

“It was amazing to see how many staff members are still at the yard from previous builds with which I have been involved. The project manager for the luxury yacht Drizzle was Steve Jacover, who has built several other Feadships over the past two decades. “Drizzle is a fine example of how sophisticated owners have experienced the true difference a Feadship can make in every sense of the word quality,” explains Francis Vermeer, head of marketing at Feadship. “Only months after handover of Twizzle to the new owners, we were discussing the perfect larger version”, says Henk de Vries, “and within months we had defined the new version in detail”. Redman Whiteley Dixon created a contemporary, warm and rich interior that again takes Twizzle yacht as a reference point before being tailored to the principals’ bespoke taste. Drizzle contains the very latest systems and technologies, a reflection of how Feadship is consistently moving forward on every level.” “We also added further refinements in terms of functionality, such as the central staircase that facilitates both guest and crew access to the sun deck.

“Taking Twizzle as the design template, it was a major challenge to retain her classic light lines while extending the vessel by over 20 per cent,” says Ruud Bakker from Feadship De Voogt Naval Architects.

Now that Twizzle has been completed and is sailing, she has visited destinations in Europe. Yard number 386 ( Twizzle) can sail at a speed around 17 knots and cruise under engine power at 12 knots with a range in the region of 4,000 nautical miles. Twizzle carries a massive 1,780 square meters of sail. Keel down, she draws in the region of 10.80-meters of water while keel up she sits a mere 3.80-meters when compared. She is 11.59-meters wide and carries a variable draft. Twizzle has been built fully from aluminum and has a displacement near 550 tonnes. She also is the first fly-bridge sailing yacht for the design firm. The new flybridge ketch by Royal Huisman is a ground breaking design from a technical and technology standpoint. That is because the owner of this yacht built a Feadship with the same name in the past. The name Twizzle may sound familiar and probably it does. She has been built with Naval Architecture by Dubois Naval Architects with exterior styling interior by UK firm Redman Whiteley Dixon and interior styling and decoration by Tod Hunter Earle Associates. Since then she has been completed and formally delivered to her owner(s).
