Famed Dutch shipyard Feadship, has just launched its largest yacht ever, the 88-metre megayacht Musashi.

The second yacht to be launched in Feadship’s XL custom yacht series, it’s the largest and most expensive Feadhsip ever built.

The Musashi’s massive steel hull was constructed by Feadship’s dedicated hull-building facility in Netherlands, and was delivered to Makkum for outfitting.

Her quadruple MTU 16V 4000 M90 marine diesel engines kick out a combined 14,600 hp, though the shipyard has not released any performance specs.

The Musashi’s naval architecture and exterior design were created by Feadship’s own De Voogt Naval Architects, while the luxe interiors including an enormous master suite were done by the Netherlands’ Sinot Yacht Design.

Very little else is currently known about the Musashi yacht, at this point, and certainly further work remains to be carried out before she will be ready for sea trials and before she has been finally finished and delivered to the yacht’s owner.
