About Obsidian

The 84.20-metre Obsidian is one of the most technically advanced and dynamically designed Feadships of recent years and an important step towards Feadship’s path toward building zero-emission superyachts by 2030. Low-profile, clean shapes and strong bow aside, she is the first of a new generation of large yachts optimised at cruising speed instead of top speed, weight control, advancements in electric propulsion, she can run her generators on Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) fuel. Using Feadship’s Advanced Electrical Drive (FAED) program for diesel-electric hybrid power, Obsidian has 4.5 times more electrical storage capacity than Feadship’s first hybrid yacht, Savannah.
