Caravalle

2018 (Launched 1965)

About Caravalle

The refit of Caravelle in 2018 beautifully blended vintage charm with modern comforts. Originally launched as Quien Sabe in 1965 as one of the seven Carlo Riva-designed Caravelle series of Feadships, she had previously been extended by 1.5 metres to add a lazarette and folding swim platform. These changes had ensured the design retained its lovely soft body curves, charming blue hull, warm teak deck and gleaming chrome deck jewellery.

Delighted to find this classic yacht in the Mediterranean, the owners had her shipped to the Feadship Makkum yard for an extensive refit which was designed to ensure Caravelle lasts at least another half a century. The work included completely stripping and rebuilding the engine room and the installation of no less than four RotorSwing at-anchor stabilisers featuring Magus effect technology. In addition, the hull was repainted and the interior and systems completely upgraded to meet the full scope of Feadship’s exacting standards.
