Editors Comments: Week Ending 20/02/2015

With the launch of Feadship’s superyacht Kiss arriving in time to encapture the Valentines holiday spirit, this week began with a momentous story and made way for even more as the days went by.

The launch, which took place on Saturday 14th, follows two more launches from Feadship which took place at the start of 2015. While the previous launches were groundbreaking in every way, Kiss may have been smaller, but it was just as significant.

The story behind Kiss is linked in a number of ways to the 46.22m Como launched in 2014. Como made a big impact at last year’s Monaco Yacht Show and single-handedly proved that size is not the only factor in high-quality yacht building - with Kiss now reaffirming that fact.

Last weekend was not only the setting for Feadship’s third launch in 2015, but also the 27th Miami Yacht & Brokerage Show. Our team returned with a sense of positivity while industry experts joined us to not only confirm the notion, but offer an insight into exactly what contributors are at play.
