CATCH - FeadShip FOR SALE

CATCH, a 26.60-meter luxury motor yachtfisher by Feadship with superyacht pedigree, returned to the water in May 2023 after a comprehensive winter refit in Amsterdam. Launched in 1984 as Gallant Lady and later known as Patriot, she now cruises proudly as CATCH. The 2023 works delivered a full repaint, fresh teak laid on the foredeck, gleaming revarnished brightwork, renewed main-deck veneers, and upgraded LED illumination, while a new sun awning enhances the lounging area. An additional cabin creates a four-stateroom arrangement accommodating up to eight guests.

Overview

CATCH, a remarkable 87’ (26.60 m) Yachtfish, stands out not only for her size and craftsmanship but also as one of the few yachts built by the prestigious Feadship. Following an extensive winter refit at Feadship in Amsterdam, she was proudly relaunched in May 2023, opening a fresh chapter in a storied lineage that began with her 1984 delivery as Gallant Lady, later renamed Patriot, and ultimately reimagined as CATCH. The latest transformation included a full exterior repaint that restores a head‑turning sheen, a newly laid teak foredeck for both tactile luxury and durability, and meticulously revarnished exterior woodwork that highlights the natural warmth of teak. The main deck veneer was renewed for a modern, refined aesthetic, upgraded LED lighting now casts a welcoming glow throughout, and a stylish sun awning adds indulgent shade for relaxed days on deck. With hydraulic outriggers discreetly at the ready, a confident 21‑knot cruise, fresh interior décor across the living spaces, and four staterooms arranged for seamless guest flow, CATCH presents in perfect condition and is comprehensively equipped, elegantly finished, and truly ready to cruise.

Cockpit

Boarding to port or starboard via the custom boarding system, the details begin immediately: natural teak cap rails meet teak decks, while a varnished teak transom and varnished teak bulkheads set an unmistakably elegant tone. Purpose‑built for both serious fishing and effortless entertaining, the cockpit leaves nothing to chance with two custom hydraulic outriggers flanking the scene and beautifully laid teak underfoot. A large lazarette and generous port‑and‑starboard storage swallow gear with ease, while shore power connections keep systems poised for action. Two seven‑inch Garmin display repeaters for speed and depth are perfectly sited to be visible from the fighting chair and mezzanine seating. The custom Murray Brothers fighting chair commands the center, complemented by a Murray cockpit table and six dining chairs complete with protective covers. Removable sunshades deploy for comfort; a dedicated baitwell supports the action; two large custom‑built bait wells with custom lights and Lexan viewing panels bring the under‑surface drama into view; and two large fish boxes stand ready for the day’s triumphs. A large crushed‑ice machine serves the starboard fish well, the engine room entrance is close at hand, and an under‑stairs locker neatly stows cleaning supplies and equipment.

Mezzanine deck seating

The raised, covered observation deck offers front‑row theater when a tournament winner is on the line and transforms seamlessly into a gracious aft‑deck lounge. A four‑person teak bench with ample storage anchors the space, while a wet bar to port with a fridge box keeps refreshments perfectly chilled. Overhead, two seven‑inch Garmin display repeaters deliver wind, speed, and depth at a glance. Under the seating, dedicated stowage holds the stainless‑steel poles for the sunshade and the boarding ladder. A teak deck underfoot, stainless‑steel handrails, and two aft‑facing cameras tied into the bridge Garmin displays elevate awareness and comfort. To port of the seating, a hot‑and‑cold stainless‑steel sink hides beneath a varnished teak top with practical storage below, a stand‑alone Creston iPad brings outside entertainment to life, and a cold box provides additional refrigeration.

Main salon

Entering from the mezzanine seating on the starboard quarter, you are immediately struck by the panoramic sweep of windows that flood the salon with natural light and captivating vistas—then vanish at the touch of a Creston control as custom electric blinds quietly cocoon the interior. Classic teak joinery pairs with rich textiles to create an atmosphere of timeless luxury and deep comfort, and all loose furnishings have been thoughtfully renewed throughout. Teak cabinetry with lockers and drawers lines the space beneath custom overheads, with LED lighting, integrated speakers, discreet a/c vents, plush carpet, and elegant curtains completing the composition. Two generous settees with concealed storage, a swivel chair, and a large ottoman that doubles as an extra stowage compartment invite effortless relaxation. An under‑counter clear‑ice maker stands ready for refined service, while a hidden 48‑inch Samsung HD flat‑screen TV descends from the starboard overhead for cinematic evenings.

Galley

Subtly integrated into low‑profile satin teak cabinetry forward to port beneath the windshield, the galley artfully “hides away,” preserving an open, contiguous salon while delivering thoroughly modern capability with new appliances. Custom cabinet and drawer storage is cleverly installed under the counter so that equipment can disappear when not in use, maintaining clean sightlines and impeccable order. Teak cabinets with lockers, drawers, and soles are crowned by a counter‑sunk, honeycomb‑backed granite countertop, all beneath custom overheads with LED lighting, speakers, a/c vents, carpet, and curtains. A Creston‑controlled entertainment suite and electric blinds serve every window. The working heart includes a large Corian sink, a Fisher Paykel induction top paired with a Gaggenau downdraft vent stovetop, a pop‑up Jenn Air convection microwave, a Fisher Paykel dishwasher, Sub Zero drawer freezers and Sub Zero drawer refrigerators, plus the salon’s clear icemaker for polished service.

Owner stateroom

Forward down the guest companionway lies the spacious Owner’s Stateroom, continuing the yacht’s traditional elegance, comfort, and meticulous attention to detail. A queen island berth is easily accessed from either side, complemented by expansive teak cabinetry and a wardrobe with a full‑length mirror inside the door. The private ensuite head is generously proportioned for life aboard and includes a Corian stall shower. Throughout, custom overheads with thoughtful lighting, speakers, a/c vents, carpet, and curtains harmonize with teak soles and joinery, while a cedar‑lined closet and hanging locker safeguard wardrobe essentials. Modern conveniences include a central vacuum system, internet connectivity, a refined sound system, and an LG HD flat‑screen TV, with extra soundproofing installed for serene rest.

Port VIP stateroom

Descending the centerline stairway from the galley, the port‑side VIP Stateroom welcomes up to three guests with two twin berths that slide together to form a double, plus a discreet Pullman berth that folds into the bulkhead. Private access to the ensuite head underscores the suite‑style comfort, and a separate Corian stall shower enhances convenience. The ambience is refined by teak cabinetry with lockers, drawers, and soles, custom overheads with LED lighting, integrated speakers, a/c vents, carpet, and curtains. A cedar‑lined closet and hanging locker, a central vacuum system, and internet connectivity add practical luxury, while an LG HD flat‑screen TV with remote and a dedicated sound system round out the experience. Special soundproofing has been installed for tranquil repose.

Starboard guest stateroom

Opposite the VIP, the starboard Guest Stateroom also serves perfectly as a crew cabin, featuring upper‑and‑lower berths that sleep two in comfort. Across the vestibule, a head with a Corian stall shower is conveniently positioned beside a full‑size washer and dryer concealed behind doors, and this head doubles as a day head for the salon at the bottom of the stairs. Within the cabin, teak cabinetry with lockers, drawers, and soles complements custom overheads with LED lighting, speakers, a/c vents, carpet, and curtains. Practical touches include a central vacuum system, internet connection, a custom teak hinged desk, and a cedar‑lined closet with a hanging locker. Entertainment is provided by a sound system with two DVD combos and thirteen‑inch flip‑down flat‑screen TVs with remotes, while a VHF radio and a ship’s alarm monitoring screen enhance utility. A Whirlpool washer and dryer and special soundproofing complete the thoughtful specification.

Crew cabin

Careful interior redesign maximizes space for the current owner and guests, and the crew cabin reflects that philosophy with an over/under arrangement to starboard, a proper closet, and ample storage intelligently integrated to keep the area neat, functional, and restful.

Enclosed pilothouse

Completely reimagined in the major refit, the enclosed pilothouse is an expansive bridge crowned by an elaborate glass‑bridge electronics suite housed in custom teak drop‑down boxes. A single STIDD helm chair anchors the centerline helm, flanked by two inviting L‑shaped settees to port and starboard and a large settee forward of the helm, providing seating for more than eight guests to revel in the 360‑degree views under way. Teak cabinets abound, offering plentiful locker and drawer storage beneath custom overheads with LED lighting, speakers, a/c vents, carpet, and curtains. Practical luxuries include teak bench seating forward of the helm, a custom‑built teak bulkhead with teak double French doors leading aft to the outdoor seating area, a teak under‑counter stainless‑steel hot‑and‑cold sink to port, and an under‑counter drinks fridge. Aft of the wheelhouse, teak corner benches with tables invite conversation, and the STIDD chair carries a custom swing‑away box on the arm for the Garmin grid control and autopilot.

Navigation equipment

The perfectly positioned centerline helm delivers superb all‑around visibility and ergonomic ease, placing everything needed for safe, confident passagemaking at your fingertips—yet allowing the instrumentation to hide away when idle so the space seamlessly doubles as an additional entertaining area. Designed for intuitive use with the signature style only a Feadship can impart, every instrument is laid out clearly in an optimized footprint to maximize comfort under way and reduce fatigue on long runs.

Pilothouse outdoor seating

Aft of the enclosed pilothouse, through centerline double teak French doors, the upper outdoor seating area beckons with two comfortable teak loveseats to port and starboard—an extraordinary perch for soaking in the scenery. Here, a teak deck and bench conceal generous storage, stainless‑steel handrails lend security, and hidden port and starboard wing stations with full controls make docking, tight‑quarters maneuvering, or precise positioning on a fish effortless. A camera, speakers, and LED lights enhance utility, Teezer reel controls are mounted overhead, and a hidden retractable ladder provides surefooted access to the mast.

Deck equipment

CATCH presents a beautifully open foredeck that has been completely re‑teaked, with effortless access to the bow from either port or starboard. Equipment is integrated with a refined, flush aesthetic: a Maxwell vertical windlass hides neatly under its dedicated hatch, while a custom‑built flush‑mounted port‑side anchor well is formed into the hull. Ground tackle includes a 350 lb stainless‑steel Poole‑type anchor, a large chain locker with storage for dock lines and fenders, 500 ft of 13 mm G4 HT anchor chain, and a Fortress FX‑125 secondary anchor with 300 ft of rode. Handling of tenders is assured by a Nautical Structures Euro 2000#‑3 telescoping low‑profile “pop‑up” davit (rebuilt 2019). The foredeck is clean and flush, including the anchor windlass hatch; flush‑mounted screws and mounts on the foredeck keep dinghy storage secure and discreet. A teak transom bears the yacht’s name, twelve underwater lights glow white after dark, a custom mast carries all electronics and antennas, and custom hydraulic outriggers stand ready for action.

Safety equipment

Safety is comprehensively addressed with a Servowatch ships monitoring system and Honeywell fire and intrusion detection alarms, complemented by an FM‑200 fixed fire system for the engine room (185 lbs). Fire and bilge readiness is bolstered by two 150 US gel/m AC, three‑phase pumps. Life‑saving capacity includes two six‑man Winslow Valise life rafts (model 86SLOCN), each equipped with an EPIRB and a watermaker, and two ACR RLB‑35 EPIRBs with hydrostatic release. Powerful Kahlenberg horns and a whistle deliver clear signaling, custom child safety gates protect each staircase, and a Syrens remote (off‑vessel text) alarm system monitors high water and power loss for added peace of mind.

Engine room and mechanical equipment

Accessed on the centerline from the cockpit, the engine room is finished to the same exacting standard as the rest of the yacht, down to high‑polish diamond‑plate flooring with a spare set of powder‑coated plates ready for maintenance intervals. The space is exceptionally planned for routine service, with most systems rebuilt or upgraded and special attention paid to extra soundproofing and vibration damping for remarkable noise reduction. Propulsion is by two MTU 12v 2000 CR engines (installed new 2007), each rated at 1800 HP (1340 kW) at 2450 RPM, with PTOs off both engines and a cross‑over. Engine hours stand at Port 3,427 and Starboard 3,495 (Sept 2025). Power is transmitted through ZF model ZF 2555 gears, with MTU controls at three stations. Steering is by Hydro control, Germany, 6350008. The hydraulic system is a Quantum QIS‑60 MK4 with a 20 HP motor, with two PTO pumps on the main engines supporting Quantum Zero Speed stabilizers. Bow control comes from a Quantum/Wesmar QT‑60 bow thruster rated at 60 HP. Ship’s power is delivered by two Kilopak generators, 60 kW each (2006), 208 V, with generator hours at Port 3,978 and Starboard 3,919 (Sept 2025). Shore power is handled by two ASEA AC30V‑3 units totaling 60 KVA (rebuilt and upgraded 2020). Electrical storage and support include battery banks listed as House 200 (24 V) and Starting two times 200 A, three Mastervolt MASS 24/50 battery chargers, and a Xantrex SW4024MC2 UPS rated at 4000 W for uninterrupted power supply. Fire safety includes an FM‑200 fixed system for the engine room (185 lbs). Engine‑room ventilation is by Delta “T”. Climate control is robust, with three Dometic Titanium chillers comprising three 6‑ton units and ten Dometic cabin air handlers with make‑up air. Water systems include a Spectra Newport 1000AG watermaker with Z‑Brane option producing 840 US gal/day (35 GPH), two Headhunter Aquabox water pumps, a stainless‑steel water heater, a Spot Zero water softener that is hard‑plumbed, and a Headhunter Stingray saltwater washdown pump. Fuel quality is maintained by an Alpha Laval fuel polisher, while a Cathelco marine growth prevention system protects raw‑water intakes.
