Air
This is Air
The 81-metre Air was completed in 2011 for repeat clients as the first superyacht built under Annex 2 of LY2 to have a fully certified commercial helicopter pad. The owners had stated their intention to showcase the unique matt black hull to the world and within the first six years clocked up around 80,000 nautical miles' the equivalent of three and a half circumnavigations. Such a high amount of cruising obviously necessitates keeping any yacht in tip-top condition and the owners of Air know that Feadship is the best place by far to do that. In 2017 the Makkum yard prepared a tank capacity upgrade of 45,600 litres and conducted various works throughout the vessel. In 2011 we repainted Air's superstructure, applied antifoul, made adaptations to the helicopter deck to accommodate larger craft, and carried out a range of technical maintenance activities and upgrades.
