ROCK.IT is a Feadship built for people who want a full-size superyacht without the formality that often comes with one. Delivered in 2014 and refreshed again in 2023, the 60 metre hull carries the Dutch yard’s engineering pedigree lightly, wrapping it in warm mahogany, generous glass and a layout designed around long, easy days in warm water. She spends her winters in the Caribbean and the Virgin Islands, with New England and the Bahamas within comfortable reach when the seasons turn.
Her deck spaces are the headline. A spa pool sits on the sun deck, ringed by curved seating and shaded lounging, while a second pool set into the foredeck gives guests a quieter, more private place to cool off. Between them, a proper outdoor cinema turns the top deck into an open-air screening room after dark. Aft, a long alfresco table seats the whole party under cover, close to the galley and the natural flow of service.
Eleven guests travel across five staterooms, run by a crew of fourteen who know how to make a big yacht feel personal. The water program matches the volume: tenders, towables, a foredeck of toys and a beach-club platform that opens the yacht to the sea. In the Virgin Islands, where the anchorages are short hops apart, that combination turns a week aboard into a string of different days rather than one long passage.
Inside, ROCK.IT holds a classic, richly detailed interior: deep mahogany joinery, polished and precise, lifted by tall windows and careful lighting. The main salon balances sculptural seating with room to move, an easy space for the whole group. Forward, the formal dining room seats guests beneath soft light with the sea framed on both sides, and a curved onyx bar anchors the sky lounge one deck up, the natural gathering point for an evening drink. A separate study, a games area and a spiral staircase in warm timber give the interior depth and the feel of a yacht meant to be lived in.
Accommodation is calm and considered. The master stateroom runs full-beam under a domed ceiling, with framed artwork, generous storage and a marble en-suite finished to the same standard. Four further cabins, including a twin for younger guests or friends travelling together, keep the layout flexible for families and mixed groups. Every room is designed for rest first, quiet and cocooning after a day in the sun.
Under way she is smooth and unhurried, a pair of MTU engines giving a relaxed twelve knot cruise with sixteen knots in reserve. Her size and sea manners suit long-range plans as easily as a lazy week between islands, and the Feadship build keeps the experience quiet and composed at any speed.
What sets ROCK.IT apart is range of use. She is large enough to host in real comfort, informal enough to feel like a holiday, and equipped for the water in a way that rewards active charter guests. For groups who want space, toys and a genuinely relaxed atmosphere, she makes a confident case. Chartering from US$299,000 per week.
