FELIX Yacht – Epic $49 Million Superyacht

FELIX yacht is a 70-meter superyacht that was built in 1969 by Jadewerft and designed by Reymond Langton Design. This 1662-ton beauty has a steel superstructure and a steel hull.

Powered by Caterpillar engines, she can reach a maximum speed of 16 knots and cruise comfortably at 13.5 knots.

FELIX yacht interior

The interior of FELIX was designed by François Zuretti, who began designing yachts in 1975 with Triad Condos.

With over 40 years of experience in the industry, it comes as no surprise that François Zuretti is a very well-known name in the yachting industry.

François Zuretti has also been involved in several notable yacht designs, such as the Scheherazade Yacht, a 140-meter superyacht, listed as the 14th largest yacht globally.

Another yacht by François Zuretti is SYMPHONY , a 101.5-meter superyacht capable of carrying up to 20 guests at a time and can be accommodated by 38 qualified crew members in 16 spacious cabins.

Aboard the FELIX yacht, guests are greeted with a stainless steel and glass elevator, a gym, work-out-related types of equipment, an owner’s deck, a 14-person cinema, full air-conditioning, Wifi signal, and zero-speed stabilizers to keep guests safe and steady when traveling the rough seas.

FELIX yacht specifications

FELIX yacht has a length of 70 meters (229.8 feet), a beam of 11.5 m (37.9 feet), and a draft of 4.2 meters (13.10 feet).

She weighs 1662 tons and is powered by Diesel type two Caterpillar engines capable of outputting 1875 hp each, which enable this behemoth to cruise at speeds of 13.5 knots and reach a top speed of 16 knots.

She has twin-screw propulsion and can hold 77,000 liters of fresh water and 282,000 liters of fuel. Her massive fuel tank allows her to cover a distance of over 9500 nautical miles.

Exterior Design

This stunning vessel was designed by Reymond Langton Design , a design studio that specializes in superyachts founded back in 2011 by Pascale Reymond and Andrew Langton.

They have extensive experience when it comes to designing superyachts and were responsible for the design of SERENE Yacht.

Mystery superyacht The Felix is docked in the Port River, but who owns it?

IT’S the superyacht that has Port Adelaide buzzing with ­rumours. Is it a Hollywood hunk’s floating palace? A luxury base for a billionaire for a penchant for batteries and space rockets?

Don't miss out on the headlines from SA News. Followed categories will be added to My News.

IT’S the super yacht that has Port Adelaide buzzing with ­rumours. Could it be Hollywood hunk Chris Hemsworth’s floating palace while on Tourism Australia duties, or a luxury base for Elon Musk while keeping an eye on his big battery?

The Felix is moored at Port Adelaide after meandering down the east coast with stops in Sydney and Hobart.

The former research vessel was converted to be the super yacht Amadeus in 2007 for French luxury goods billionaire Bernard Arnault.

It was renamed the Felix in early 2016 following its sale to a mystery buyer for an undisclosed price. At the time one valuation put it at being worth 65 million euro ($A100 million).

Felix is a world away from a fishing tinny. The 70m ship is configured to take 12 guests in six cabins, plus 18 crew, with ­facilities such as jacuzzi, gym, cinema, elevator serving three decks and golf driving range.

In 2008 the Power and Motor Yacht website listed it as the 64th largest motor yacht in the world, noting “Former British prime minister Tony Blair, his wife Cherie, and rock star Bono cruised together aboard this yacht last summer”.

What Felix is doing in Adelaide is a mystery, although there are many theories. Comments on social media include claims it is owned by a North American businessman.

Meanwhile, Chris Hems­worth has left SA and Elon Musk has been busy launching a rocket taking one of his Tesla cars into space.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

All aboard S.S. Facebook.

Mark Zuckerberg has reportedly gifted himself a $300 million megayacht, dubbed “Launchpad,” ahead of his 40th birthday.

The staggering 387-foot-long vessel was seen floating at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., after arriving at its berth earlier this week, The Sun reported Thursday.

The multi-layered luxury ship’s sleek exterior was designed by Espen Øino International and boasts a steel hull and an aluminum superstructure, according to SuperYacht Times.

Reportedly ranking as the 45th largest yacht in the world, the interiors are just as aesthetically pleasing and reportedly executed by Zuretti Interior Design company, a France-based company specializing in unique and custom yacht design.

The breathtakingly beautiful floater stands out with a navy blue theme matching an American flag perched proudly on its wood-paneled stern.

There are several outdoor areas where the social media maven will be able to relax with his family and the indoor levels feature glass paneling allowing for tons of natural light.

There also appears to be a helipad perfect for whenever the Facebook co-founder wants to travel to his vessel by air.

The Feadship-built yacht, built in 2022, can comfortably fit 24 guests aboard, requires a crew of 48, and is said to cost $30 million a year for upkeep and usage, according to Superyachtfan.com .

Boatworld insiders have been buzzing with speculation that Zuckerberg is the owner of the newly minted mega-cruise ever since it made its main voyage from the Netherlands last week.

The tech titan was spotted touring the Russian-commissioned megayacht in early March, though the impressive boat didn’t arrive stateside until this week due to sanctions, according to The Sun.

The website reported that Zuckerberg purchased the pricey yacht – along with its own $30 million partner boat — most likely as an early 40th birthday present to himself.

The boat reportedly traveled to Florida after being granted special permission to be imported just weeks ahead of Zuckerberg’s birthday on May 14.

Zuckerberg’s yacht is just 30 feet shorter than the length of fellow billionaire Jeff Bezos’ 417-foot megayacht Koru, which the Amazon boss snagged for a whopping $500 million.

Zuckerberg’s rep did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
