This is Barbara Jean
The concept was clear from the very outset: to create a modern classic superyacht with references to two previous Feadships – Aurora and Iroquois – but taking a third Feadship – Rasselas – as the primary starting point. Although her aluminum superstructure was to remain pretty much unchanged, the original plan was to stretch the hull by about two metres.
