GLADIATOR

GLADIATOR is a 44.6-metre steel displacement motor yacht built by Feadship to the F45 Vantage model in 2010, refitted in 2022 and registered in the Cayman Islands. Her exterior was a collaboration between De Voogt Naval Architects — Feadship's in-house design office — and Sinot Design Associates, with Sinot also responsible for the interior. Feadship's reputation as a builder is among the most established in the superyacht industry, and the F45 Vantage model represents a considered balance between ocean-going capability and refined onboard living.

GLADIATOR accommodates 10 guests across five cabins with a crew of eleven, a ratio that places her firmly in the category of formally attended charter vessels. Her operational footprint covers both the Mediterranean and the Caribbean, with active charter regions including the French Riviera, Corsica, Sardinia, Amalfi, Monaco, the Caribbean island circuit from Antigua and Saint Martin to St Barts and the Bahamas. A range of 5,182 nautical miles at 11 knots confirms her as a genuinely ocean-capable charter yacht able to make transatlantic passages under her own power. Those seeking high speed or a compact vessel will find her displacement hull and measured pace do not match those requirements.

The 2022 refit ensures her Feadship-quality structure is supported by current systems throughout. At 499 gross tonnes across 44.6 metres, she achieves the high volume-to-length ratio that Feadship's engineering approach is known for. At-anchor stabilisers are fitted, along with a full beach club and gym — the combination of a steam room and gym confirms an approach to long-range charter that accounts for guest wellbeing during extended passages, not merely at anchor.

The beach club provides direct sea-level access, complemented by a swimming platform, sun deck, sunpads, outdoor bar, and an interior jacuzzi. The water toy inventory is broad: two Sea-Doo jet-skis, two Seabobs, a foilboard, two paddleboards, three kayaks, adult and junior wakeboards, a wakesurf, a water-ski, a waterslide, a water bike, a floating golf setup, snorkelling equipment, and fishing equipment. The floating golf facility is an unusual addition that distinguishes GLADIATOR among comparable charter yachts. The overall impression is of a Feadship-quality vessel suited to parties who want genuine offshore capability alongside a full range of water-based recreation.

The provisional rating is based on available public data, reflecting acceptable standards across safety documentation, maintenance records, and operational protocols.
