The best launches from the show
By Frances & Michael Howorth
Helix (Feadship)
What is it? The fifth in the F45 Vantage custom series built by Feadship’s Royal Van Lent yard. Unlike her sisters Harle, Space, TV and Gladiator, however, she features the first nautical interior created by the team at Sinot Design Associates.
Why is it so special? Guest cabins on the main deck give everyone a prime location, so the yacht is perfect for chartering. Despite the mahogany interior, this yacht feels light, an effect achieved by fabric-lined wall panels, off-white carpets and large windows.
Look out for: The skylight over the master suite bed that floods the area with light.
Would appeal to: An owner who wants transatlantic range and accommodation that means the guests feel as privileged as he does.
