About Highlander
Built by Feadship in 1986 and refitted in 2021, Highlander is a 164ft (50m) superyacht that pairs classic pedigree with a refreshed interior and modern amenities. She offers 7 staterooms arranged as 1 King, 1 Queen, 2 Double, 2 Twin, welcoming 13 overnight guests or up to 12 for a day at sea, supported by a dedicated crew of 14.
Aboard Highlander
The refit refreshed Highlander’s living spaces without losing the character that defines a well-built superyacht. Generous deck areas invite long lunches and sunset gatherings, while the interior cabins provide a quiet retreat at the end of each day. Cruising at 13 knots, she covers ground efficiently between anchorages. Key features include a deck jacuzzi, a swim platform, an on-board gym, a spa, an outdoor cinema, and a helipad, and the crew sets the pace – whether guests want a packed day of activities or a slow morning with nowhere particular to be.
Activities & Water Toys
Highlander carries 15 water toys including two wave runners, two Seabobs, an e-foil, two SUP boards, water skis, a wakeboard, a kayak, towable inflatables, and surf and kite gear – enough variety for groups with mixed interests. The 37ft Scout tender, 15ft Zodiac runs guests to beaches, dive sites, and shoreside restaurants throughout the day. Equipment is prepped and managed by the crew, keeping the experience effortless from start to finish.
