Boardwalk V Motor Yacht

A custom build carries no sister ships and no production line: every metre of Boardwalk V was drawn against one owner's brief before Feadship laid her keel. She was delivered in 2021 at 77 metres, and at 1,848 gross tons she carries the volume of a much longer yacht into her length. She is offered through Boatcrowd from Civitavecchia.

Build and provenance

Feadship built her to order as a fully custom motor yacht, on a monohull with a displacement style meant for distance rather than speed. Her beam of 12.3 metres is wide for her length, the kind of number that buys interior volume rather than corridors. No refit is on record, so a buyer's survey will read Boardwalk V as she left the yard in 2021, not as a yacht rebuilt since.

Layout and accommodation

Fourteen guests sleep across seven cabins, looked after by a crew of 22, a ratio that puts more than one crew member to every two guests. That kind of crew depth is what keeps service running rather than visible, the difference between a full day of service and a full day of asking for it.

Performance and engineering

Two 3,046 hp MTU 16V 4000 M63L engines give her a 15-knot cruise and 18.4 knots at full throttle, figures that belong to a displacement hull built for distance rather than speed, the kind of yacht an owner chooses for a long season underway rather than a fast weekend out.

On deck and at anchor

The beach club opens her stern to the water, the sun deck carries an on-deck jacuzzi, and a swimming pool sits above them. Below, a sauna, gym and spa fill out the wellness deck, and a bar, an elevator and a helipad round out the rest of the boat.

Where she lies and how to see her

Boardwalk V lies in Civitavecchia, Italy. Boatcrowd arranges viewings there and comes along to each one, and once an offer is accepted we bring in the surveyor and set the sea trial.
