Launched in 2016, the breath-taking 70.00m (229' 8") Bannenberg & Rowell superyacht Hull 812 JOY is a striking vessel, built by the leading Dutch shipyard, Feadship. JOY features exterior design by Bannenberg & Rowell, while her interior design is by Studio Indigo Ltd. She can accommodate up to twelve guests in seven cabins and has a crew of nineteen.

NOTABLE FEATURES: ~ Spa centre ~ Beach club convertible into a nightclub ~ Elevator ~ Gym ~ Ondeck Jacuzzi ~ Stabilisers ~ Exterior & interior styling by bespoke designers ~ Abundance of natural light in the interior ~ Vast exterior sunning & entertainment areas ~ Basketball court ~ Swim platform

JOY is certainly one of the premier new superyachts available in the charter market. She features a great wealth of exterior spaces which blur the traditional boundaries between inside and outside. She is also the first superyacht to feature an exterior design by Bannenberg & Rowell and the first Feadship with an interior by the architects at Studio Indigo. The result is an astonishing private yacht which has faithfully met the owner’s brief to produce a boat that’s ‘completely different to every other yacht.’

A Joy To Behold:

Yacht JOY is a testament to Feadship’s single-minded production of quality and ongoing uncompromised attention to detail, as well as Bannenberg & Rowell (and the owners’) design flair.

M/Y JOY was launched and then delivered by Feadship to her owner in July 2016. Joy provides rare size, quality and outright prestige to the international yacht charter market. A superior superyacht in many ways she embodies a very successful collaboration of Bannenberg and Rowell Design and Feadship. While Bannenberg and Rowell penned her beautiful exterior lines, the famous Dutch yacht builder Feadship crafted her custom lines. A fresh approach to the yachts essential design shape has created rather inventive and innovative exterior styling. The yacht features gorgeous artistic, yet natural, shapes as well as slightly novel concave lines. By solving a number of the complex yacht building challenges associated with the yacht Feadship brought this wonderful project to life.

Outside In:
Joy features extensive outdoor social and private spaces throughout her impressive five decks. This along with the ample use of windows and artistic use of glass to maximise the outside views enables a wonderful harmony between the exterior and interior, which is so sought after by contemporary yacht designers. For instance, ‘winter gardens’ zones were created to further enhance the comfort of the social spaces with pockets of air conditioned areas both inside and out. The overall result is a superior ocean lifestyle experience for those aboard, so crucial for the best luxury charter yacht vacations.

Studio Indigo designed Joy’s vivacious and inspired contemporary classic interior, as seen in the images. Her flexible seven cabin layout means she can accommodate a full 12 guests comfortably, which is also a popular feature in the charter market. Additional noteworthy features include a three-deck elevator and a principal focus on health and wellness facilities, such as a large gym, a spa room and an onboard masseuse.

“Joy is a testimony to what can be achieved when you genuinely start a superyacht build with a blank sheet of paper,” concludes Feadship director Jan-Bart Verkuyl. “The owner’s wishes have been successfully combined with Feadship’s experience and the excellent teams from Studio Indigo and Bannenberg & Rowell to fashion a truly pioneering 70-meter yacht.”
