The design brief for the Feadship motor yacht Twizzle
cited both originality and elegance. To achieve that, the owners paired the
well-known marine design firm Redman Whiteley Dixon with Todhunter Earle, a
notable Chelsea-based residential and commercial design firm with no marine
experience. The result is an appealing blend of contemporary and classic themes
executed in walnut and teak. Recently launched, the 182-foot yacht will soon
embark on her scheduled three-year circumnavigation.
 Twizzle is built in steel and aluminum to
Lloyd’s 100A1 SSC classification and the MCA Code. Powered by twin 1,500-hp
Cats, the De Voogt-designed, De Vries-built displacement vessel can
cover 4,500 nautical miles when cruising at 12 knots. (Click image to enlarge)
Christened with the owner’s daughter’s nickname, Twizzle
features a main-deck master that includes sweeping views, a study and a
bathroom with spa tub, shower and double basins. Four staterooms on the lower
deck accommodate 10 guests.
Twizzle is equipped with KoopNautic
at-anchor stabilizers, Inmarsat Fleet 77 technology, Crestron A/V
systems and an array of toys and tenders, including two personal
watercraft, two kayaks, two Laser sailboats, and one 14-foot Castoldi and two
21-foot tenders.
