Battle of the F45s

It's a question as old as "Would you like fries with that?" It's the eternal struggle between New and Used. For instance, there's the brand-new! just-launched! Feadship F45, Helix. The fifth in the series and the first with a nautical interior, she sleeps 10 in 5 cabins. She'll make her debut at this year's Monaco Yacht Show after sea trials.

It’s a question as old as “Would you like fries with that?” It’s the eternal struggle between New and Used.

For instance, there’s the brand-new! just-launched! Feadship F45, Helix.

The fifth in the series and the first with a nautical interior, she sleeps 10 in 5 cabins. She’ll make her debut at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show after sea trials.

Or, you can go for the tried and true F45 Madsummer, launched in 2008.

She’s currently for sale by Moran for €6.5 million less than her new sistership. And as Moran says, “Unlike the new F45 that only has 5 staterooms, MADSUMMER sleeps 12 guests in 6 spacious staterooms which are all uniquely located on the main and upper deck.”

So which would you pick … new or used? Either way, it’s a Feadship.
