VIRGINIAN is a 62.3-metre motor yacht built by the legendary Dutch shipyard Feadship, launched in 1990 and kept thoroughly current through a refurbishment in 2020 and a further refit in 2024. Naval architecture and exterior design come from Feadshipu2019s own De Voogt Naval Architects, and more than three decades after her delivery she remains a genuine showcase of the quiet, enduring quality that defines the Feadship name.
Her interiors, originally created by American designer David Easton and refreshed by Alain Raynaud in the 2017/2018 refit, offer a world of classic grace at sea, closer in feeling to a high-end luxury villa than a conventional motor yacht. Sleek, modern-classic styling runs throughout, with contemporary decor and plush, comfortable living spaces designed specifically to make discerning guests feel genuinely at home rather than simply impressed.
Life on board follows an unhurried, sophisticated rhythm. Mornings begin with al fresco breakfast on the upper deck aft, accompanied by a smoothie from the fully equipped bar, before guests make their way to the sun deck Jacuzzi and lounge area to relax on the sun pads ahead of an afternoon spent on the water toys. A workout in the gym is easily followed by drinks in the upper deck bar, and two of VIRGINIANu2019s standout interior spaces, the observation lounge and library, both feature ornate decoration and working fireplaces that lend real character on cooler evenings.
A state-of-the-art movie theatre gives guests a dedicated space for evening entertainment, while the yachtu2019s full-displacement steel hull and aluminium superstructure deliver exceptional stability and comfort at anchor, supported by at-anchor stabilisers. VIRGINIAN cruises at around 13 to 14.5 knots with a genuinely impressive range of up to 7,000 nautical miles, giving her real flexibility across an extended Mediterranean season.
Accommodation comfortably sleeps 12 guests across six staterooms: a master suite on the main deck, two double cabins and three twin cabins. A particularly thoughtful touch is the twin cabin configured as part of the main-deck master suite, making VIRGINIAN an especially strong choice for families travelling with young children who want to stay close by at night. Two further double cabins and two twin cabins on the lower deck round out the accommodation for the rest of the charter party.
VIRGINIAN carries an extensive and genuinely varied water toy collection, including towable toys, waterskis, wakeboards, kayaks, windsurfers, fishing equipment, scuba diving gear and kneeboards, launched from a fleet of five tenders led by a 6.4-metre Edgewater. The combination of family-friendly accommodation and a broad activity offering has made her a particularly popular choice for multi-generational groups.
With a crew of up to 18 on board, VIRGINIAN is available for charter through the summer Mediterranean season, cruising popular destinations across the East and West Mediterranean including the Amalfi Coast, Corsica, the French Riviera, Sardinia, the Balearics and Greece. For guests seeking timeless Feadship craftsmanship over the loudest, newest profile on the water, VIRGINIAN remains one of the charter marketu2019s most quietly compelling choices.
Built in 1990 and kept thoroughly current through refits in 2020 and 2024, VIRGINIAN showcases the quiet, enduring quality Feadship has built its reputation on.
