Feadship has shared the latest photos of 70m superyacht Joy, launched just over a month ago, undergoing sea trials on the North Sea.





Spotted in IJmuiden, the Netherlands, 2 weeks ago, this Bannenberg & Rowell designed vessel features an interior style by Studio Indigo focused on blending exterior and interior spaces. Onboard, glass doors, together with air-conditioned outdoor-in zones, create a natural flow between interior and exterior areas. In total, over 250 different finishes and materials were used on Joy.

Joy can accommodate 12 guests across an owner's stateroom located forward of the yacht, 2 VIP and 3 guest cabins. The owner's cabin has been linked with the foredeck of the yacht to provide continuity between exterior and interior spaces. Together with an extensive use of glass, this link from the owner's cabin has helped reinforce the stateroom's 270-degrees view.

From a technical standpoint, the yacht is powered by twin MTU 16V 4000 engines of 1,850hp each giving Joy a maximum speed of 16 knots and allowing her to cruise for 4,5000 nautical miles at 12 knots.

The Royal Van Lent shipyard, part of Feadship, is owned by luxury conglomerate, LVMH as per Yacht Harbour's article on the hidden forces of yachting.
