Overview
Feadship is one of the principal international reference points for pure-custom superyacht construction. Its identity is based on the premise that every yacht is individually designed, engineered, and built around a specific owner’s requirements rather than derived from a standardized model range.
The Feadship organization brings together the shipbuilding capabilities of Royal Van Lent and Koninklijke De Vries with the naval architecture and engineering expertise of De Voogt Naval Architects. This structure creates an integrated Dutch design and construction environment while allowing individual projects to draw on specialized facilities and multidisciplinary technical teams.
Feadship is included in 1 2026 ranking category. The highest recorded classification is Tier I. Ranking status is editorial evidence rather than a substitute for client diligence.
