Signal the trumpets and hoist the sails, the exquisitely designed Feadship motor yacht, Somnium has found a new owner. Representing the seller were Feadship Resale’s Folkert Schoots and senior sales broker Alex Lees-Buckley of Camper & Nicholsons. The award-winning yacht boasts a uniquely elegant look, with a sleek, all-aluminium Studio De Voogt exterior and commanding naval architecture by Feadship De Voogt.
To augment her Dutch build, Italian design studio FM - Architettura d’interni was enlisted to craft her interiors, drawing inspiration from the untamed splendour of the Galápagos Islands. Her bespoke design was recognisably superior, earning her a much-coveted Neptune at the 2022 World Superyacht Awards. And as far as price tags go, Somnium commanded an impressive €57,500,000, with VAT covered by the seller.
A breath of fresh sea air to the brokerage market, the award-winning 34-metre motor yacht ‘50 Shades of Play’ has finally surfaced for the discerning buyers. Drawing a sporty yet contemporary profile, this stunning superyacht beat the competition to bag a Neptune in the under-40-metre category at the 2025 World Superyacht Awards.
Developed by AB Yachts, a brand by the Next Yacht Group, with design inputs from Archea Associati, ‘50 Shades of Play’ boasts of not just an unmistakable modern aesthetic but also carried a suite of cutting-edge technology, setting her apart from her competitors. The highlights include the yacht’s Starlink connectivity and integrated NEXT AI system, lending the vessel a high tech appeal.
The interiors of the yacht are a testament to tasteful minimalism, presenting clean lines and a refined colour palette. Expansive windows wash the main saloon with an abundance of natural light, accentuating the modern appeal.
