CECIL WRIGHT ATTEND THE 34TH MYBA CHARTER SHOW WITH CLASSIC FEADSHIP, HEAVENLY DAZE

Cecil Wright is delighted to announce that we will be attending the 2024 MYBA Charter Show, taking place from Monday April 22 to Thursday April 25 in Marina Molo Vecchio Genoa, with the 32m classic Feadship, HEAVENLY DAZE.

Built in 1972 but recently refitted she has a beautiful fresh interior with recent refinements giving her a modern style with ubiquitous guest appeal.

Step on board and you are transported back to the golden age of yachting where stellar fame and fortune from high society, US Presidents and Hollywood actors gathered by invitation only. Launched as ALDEBARAN in 1972 with naval architecture by Feadship de Voogt and exterior design by Studio de Voogt, HEAVENLY DAZE is also part of the prized Feadship Heritage Fleet and her Owner is one of the founders of this cherished fleet.

The 2011 brief to the Dutch design team at Wetzel’s Brown was to respect her heritage by retaining the original classic details whilst updating decorative elements introduced over the years, with the intention of enhancing her timeless style. Reflective of her Owner’s passion, photography is a key interior focus with pieces offering a nod to the vessel’s heritage including: a colour photograph of HM Queen Elizabeth II by Patrick Lichfield on board the Royal Yacht Britannia in March 1972 and colour photographs from the 1960s and 1970s by Slim Aarons capturing ‘attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places’ as Aarons famously once said to describe his practice. There are also several photographs discovered in the Feadship archive of ALDEBARAN, as she was named of her being built, on launch day and at sea immediately after the launch.

With an incredible Captain and crew HEAVENLY DAZE can accommodate up to 9 guests in 4 cabins with convertible configurations to adapt to guest groups and each cabin is decorated in a simple but contemporary style featuring light fabrics and furnishings.

An expansive sun deck can be configured as an outdoor gym for a morning HIIT or weights session as well as for a more zen yoga or Pilates class. Post workout there is ample space for stylish teak sun loungers, a sun pad area, and a retractable Bimini offering shade when needed in the heat of the day. For evening it transforms to a wonderful venue for a cocktail party and the highly polished mahogany aft deck dining table, which seats up to 8, nestles in the canoe stern, providing a cocoon for al fresco dining.

Across her interior and exterior decks there are a myriad of spaces for fine dining, relaxed entertaining and daytime leisure. For the active there are water-skis, wakeboards, a paddleboard, kayaks, a topper sailboat, a banana and an inflatable bathing platform. And by nature of her size HEAVENLY DAZE allows for adaptable cruising to discover places inaccessible by larger yachts.

And with all the benefits of 21st century connectivity, and engineering, including Starlink seamless internet and zero speed stabilisers, to ensure comfortable cruising and calm stay at anchor, HEAVENLY DAZE is a charter dream to be reimagined with manifold visits.

HEAVENLY DAZE is available for booking Cecil Wright from €75,500 per week.
