The 42.1 metre classic Feadship yacht Istros, listed for sale by Cecil Wright & Partners, has been sold with the buyer introduced by Cornelius Gerling of Edmiston & Company.

First delivered in 1954 by Dutch shipyard De Vries Lentsch, Istros's restoration was originally started in 2013 with a new interior by Van Geest Design but was stalled due to financial difficulties. After the yacht was sold in 2018, the restoration resumed at Feadship and was finally completed in 2020.

The mammoth task included the complete overhaul of the interior into "family-orientated, sunny Scandinavian style", as well as the installation of a brand new engine room. The quality of the refit was recognised at the 2021 World Superyacht Awards, where the yacht scooped a Neptune in the Rebuilt Yachts category.
