Vessel overview
About this yacht
Classic Feadship lineage
Sultana was built by De Vries at the Feadship yard in Aalsmeer, the Netherlands, and was delivered in 1969. The 1969 Feadship 25.8m | 85ft belongs to the Caravelle-era collaboration between Feadship and Carlo Riva, with a classic profile retained through later works.
Sultana underwent a major rebuild at Feadship’s Makkum yard in 2012. The rebuild combined a renewed interior with restored Gardner main engines and an updated onboard power-generation and storage arrangement.
Machinery and onboard power
Twin Gardner main engines drive the yacht through a direct-drive installation. Sultana has a stated cruising speed of 10 knots and a maximum speed of 12 knots.
The electrical arrangement combines main-engine-driven alternators, batteries and diesel generators. The Gardner engines were rebuilt again during subsequent works, while the yacht also received a new generator and replacement lithium batteries.
Renewed interior and exterior areas
Sultana’s later interior works included an enclosed galley, a dedicated laundry room, new carpets and wall linings, and revised access to the master cabin that created a private crew area on the bridge. An onboard AV system and Starlink were installed throughout the yacht.
The sundeck received new teak, while a full repaint refreshed the exterior finish. The main deck and sundeck remain central outdoor areas within the yacht’s classic layout.
Steel displacement configuration
The 1969 Feadship 25.8m | 85ft has a steel displacement hull, a beam of 19.39 feet and a maximum draft of 7.48 feet. Sultana is located in Antibes, Alpes-Maritimes.
