The Worth Avenue Yachts team announces the completion of M/Y BROADWATER refit. M/Y BROADWATER (formerly known as RASSELAS) has undergone an impressive refit and hull extension. The highly anticipated refit has converted the Feadship from 171’ (52m) to 182’ (55.5m) in length.
The new BROADWATER features numerous upgrades that make this one of the most highly regarded Feadships to date. M/Y BROADWATER will join the impressive lineup of charter yachts offered at Worth Avenue Yachts.
Captain Mark Jones says this about the completion of the new BROADWATER project, “It has been a pleasure to be a part of the BROADWATER program for over 6 years and the newest vessel is undoubtedly the most pristine product to be launched by her incredibly ambitious owner. With the technical difficulties of converting a private yacht to a commercial yacht and the stern extension, along with a full interior revamp and re-design of the sun deck, this was by far the most challenging and hence rewarding refit yet. I can’t wait for guests to enjoy this modern, classic Feadship.’”
The 182’ (55.5m) BROADWATER project is the third in the BROADWATER series. The exquisite design of BROADWATER lends itself to the fine craftsmanship of renowned designer Adam Voorhees. Responsible for the earlier BROADWATER designs, Vorhees has worked closely alongside the owner to create stunning designs and eye-catching lines throughout each of his yachts. The newest BROADWATER conversion took place at the new Huisfit premises of Dutch Masters Royal Huisman in Amsterdam. The extensive refit features a 4 m/13 ft hull extension, including a re-styled stern. Additionally, the sundeck has been completely rebuilt, featuring a new composite mast with sun awning.
The interior of the vessel has been re-styled along with modifications to the Owner’s / guest + crew areas. Additional, board systems required for a Classification change (Owner’s brief) from “private use” to “commercial use.” New teak and furniture on the main and bridge deck along with painting of the superstructure and hull.
The Feadship‘s striking design features many key elements that make this yacht a true masterpiece. The exterior contrast of navy and white exudes both luxury and class from every angle. Her sleek lines and dark blue hull stand proudly over the water as she makes her way back to the United States before embarking on the journey of a lifetime.
BROADWATER is available for Winter charter starting after New Year’s. She will be chartering in the scenic turquoise waters of the Bahamas and the Caribbean. Her interior boasts six spacious staterooms and can accommodate up to 12 guests along with 12 crew members. Noteworthy features include a jacuzzi, 38ft Wajer chase boat, and 19ft Castoldi jet tender. She includes an abundance of water toys including SeaDoo Spark Trixx 3-UP jet skis, Seabobs, paddleboards, and more.
BROADWATER is currently available for bookings and will be available to charter on New Year’s and beyond. Whether you enjoy fitness, snorkeling, jet-skiing, or simply relaxing in the sun with a good book, BROADWATER is the perfect charter yacht to take you there. Her Feadship pedigree in combination with the modern design creates an aura of luxury, confidence, and leisure that can be felt by anyone who steps aboard.
