The yacht has cruised extensively around the south coast and English Channel in present ownership and only the pressures of a young family force the sale. In her relatively short lifetime, she has clocked up several blue water passages with a voyage to West Africa, the Caribbean and home in the 90’s. She proved to be fast and seaworthy averaging 135 miles/day on a trade wind crossing to the Caribbean, very respectable indeed for a yacht with a waterline length of 24’. Easily handled by one or two people, this is a very capable boat and a fantastic value cruising yacht.

The 78 metre superyacht Venus emerged from the Feadship yard in Aalsmeer in 2012, showcasing immaculate design, extensive use of glass and an unforgettable profile in a pedigree collaboration between Philippe Starck, De Voogt Naval Architects and her visionary commissioner, who is speculated to be the design and technology icon Steve Jobs.
Immediately recognisable, opinion splitting and a genuine triumph of design, this superyacht has since been seen cruising the world and turning heads in every port. Holding expert design characteristics of the Apple empire, with specially created elements on board to enhance both use and performance.
With a layered profile and superstructure reflecting a clean, minimalist style, Venus holds a beam of 11.8 metres (38’9”) and a draught of 3 metres (9’11”) to create spacious internal volumes to take anywhere in the world. This highly secretive yacht is both part of the Top 100 and widely considered to be one of the finest yachts on the water.
