Beyond 'super': unique yacht design with Burgess
The power of three: new build deliveries
Published 11 septembre 2025
August 2025 ended on a high note for the Burgess New Build team, with two Benetti yachts and a pedigree Feadship being delivered to their new owners. Behind every milestone is our team’s expertise – discover their story, and how we can guide you on your journey to ownership.
FORTITUDE1
Working in close partnership with the shipyard and the owner, FORTITUDE1 was introduced by Burgess 15 months from delivery and exemplifies what can be achieved through clear vision, expert guidance, and exceptional teamwork. Sold in-house, expertly managed by the local Burgess New Build team and now part of our charter fleet, she's a striking example that speaks to the strength of our full service approach.
‘FORTITUDE1 is the result of shared ambition, creativity and precision. We are proud to have supported her new owner throughout the new build journey. Our thanks go to Benetti for their outstanding craftsmanship and to the owner for their trust in Burgess.’ Rory Boyle, Partner, Head of New Build Sales, Burgess
STELLA M
STELLA M (ex PROJECT SAKURA) is an exceptional 71.8m (235.5ft) Dutch pedigree from Feadship, Royal Van Lent. Burgess sold PROJECT SAKURA to her new owner in July 2023 after just six weeks on the market, and it’s been remarkable to witness her progress over the past two years. This adds to our over 40 Feadship transactions to date, including the 2024 delivery of ALVIA – now a successful Burgess charter yacht – and the recent sale of ONE.
‘We were pleased to support the owner on his build journey – from initial enquiry to delivery – and be a part of such an exceptional project. Her Dutch pedigree coupled with complete collaboration between all parties resulted in a vessel that meets the owner’s forward-thinking vision. We extend our congratulations to her owner and everyone involved.’ Richard Lambert, Senior Partner, Managing Director of Semi-Custom Yachting Burgess
XWAVE
This custom B.Now 50 was developed entirely around the owner’s unique vision, and it was the first comprehensive collab with British design studio RWD. Blurring the boundaries between inside and out, designers ensured the sea remains at the forefront of the on board experience, facilitating both larger family gatherings as well as more intimate moments.
‘The enormous success of the B.Now series reflects how this RWD design exceptionally delivers on the desires and needs of today’s modern yacht buyer. It has been a pleasure to work with our discerning client and the inimitable Italian powerhouse Benetti.’ Barry Gray, Technical Representative at Burgess
