Despite the fact that the construction on Project 714 started back in 2021, and the technical launch took place in 2023, there is still very little information about the vessel
The exterior design of the superyacht with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure was developed by British RWD studio, while the interior is allegedly owed to Chahab Interior Design. The naval architecture is by Feadship De Voogt Naval Architects.
Based on the photos available, the exterior designers came up with a skillful combination of a classic hull shape and contemporary lines of the superstructure. The vessel looks elegant, but not outdated, while the elongated bow section and the dark blue color of the hull contrasted with the white top makes her look like a true gentlemen’s yacht.
Witht a beam of 13.57 m and a draft of 3.85 m, based on the preliminary data, Project 714 has an internal volume of 2500 GT.
The project features some technical innovations, too: the vessel’s diesel-electric hybrid power system has already been tried on the innovative Obsidian superyacht. The technology was developed through the Feadship Advanced Electrical Drive (FAED) program. According to the yard, her diesel-electric hybrid power system has 4.5 times more electrical storage capacity than Feadship’s first hybrid yacht, Savannah.
The yacht is propelled and steered by two contra-rotating thrusters, which allow one to do without traditional drive shafts and rudders, significantly reducing drag and enhancing efficiency. The yard has also done some serious work to optimize and fine-tuned the pods and propellers in order to minimise vibration and enhance comfort on board.
At present, the superyacht has moved to the final stage of outfitting and is scheduled for delivery this year after the sea trials.
