A modern statement at 77 metres
Delivered in 2019 at 77.25 metres from the Feadship yard in Kaag, Pi arrived as one of the yard's most distinctive modern yachts. Built as project 818, she was known during construction under the working names 818 and Syzygy. At 11.2 metres in the beam and 1,592 GT she carries generous volume for her length. She wears a confident modern face with a purposeful bow that sets her apart at anchor. She stands among the boldest Feadship profiles of the late 2010s.
Her significance lies in her strong, contemporary look. Pi shows how the yard can deliver a striking single vision to the highest standard. Her monochrome hull and crisp detailing give her a purposeful, contemporary presence. For buyers drawn to modern design she set a clear reference. She still reads as fresh and current more than five years after her delivery from the yard.
Jarkko Jamsen draws a bold bow
The exterior is the work of the Finnish designer Jarkko Jamsen, who gave Pi a strong and modern profile with a near vertical bow. The lines are clean and purposeful, with generous glazing opening the interior to the sea. The look is contemporary and assured, carrying her volume with balance. De Voogt Naval Architects developed the hull form beneath. The near vertical bow lengthens her waterline and helps the hull move cleanly through the water.
The exterior spaces are arranged for relaxed cruising in warm grounds. Broad decks give owner and guests room to spread out across several levels. A beach club at the stern brings guests down close to the water. Sun and shaded areas offer a range of settings through the day. Wide walkways and low guardrails keep the connection to the sea open across the deck.

Sinot volume below decks
The interior is the work of Sinot Yacht Design, in the calm and refined style the studio is known for. Pi accommodates 12 guests across five cabins, supported by a crew of up to 18. The owner's quarters are given a generous private area away from the guest flow. The interior reads as serene and contemporary in keeping with the exterior. Soft neutral tones and natural materials set the calm mood throughout.
The volume of a 77 metre hull allows generous social and private spaces. There is room for dining, lounging and wellness areas across the decks. Light fills the guest areas through large windows. Feadship joinery gives the interior the depth expected at this level. The five-cabin layout gives each guest suite an unusual generosity of space for a yacht of her length.
MTU power for long passages
Pi is powered by twin MTU 16V 4000 M63 diesel engines that give her a top speed of around 18.4 knots and a comfortable cruise near 16 knots. The displacement hull is set up for long ocean passages and time in remote grounds. Her fuel tanks hold well over one million litres for genuine ocean autonomy. The naval architecture keeps motion settled when the sea builds. Her steel hull and aluminium superstructure keep weight in check for a yacht built to cover long distances.
A yacht of this value carries redundancy across its critical systems for cruising far from support. The volume of the hull allows generous technical and storage spaces below the guest areas. Stabilisation keeps her steady at anchor and under way. The machinery is arranged for reliable voyages over long distances. Her substantial tankage supports extended time away from port.
A design-led modern cruiser
Pi answers the brief of an owner who wanted a striking modern yacht built to the highest standard. Her bold profile gives her an identity that stands out at any anchorage. Yachts of this quality and character hold steady interest on the market. She is a confident modern cruiser for a design-minded owner. A crew of up to 18 supports her twelve guests in real comfort across five generous cabins.
For an owner she offers generous private quarters, calm social spaces and the reach of a genuine ocean cruiser. The size suits family groups and long itineraries in comfort. Running a 77 metre yacht is a long-term commitment that rewards an owner who plans to use her fully. Pi stands among the most distinctive modern Feadships of her era. Her strong profile keeps her memorable at any harbour.

Что сообщают владельцы и экипажи
A short, high-value ownership history rather than one settled owner
She was delivered in September 2019 as Syzygy 818, sold roughly three months later and renamed Pi, and has since changed hands again and been renamed back to 818 - an unusually fast turnover for a full-custom 77 metre Feadship, which points to strong secondary-market demand for the Jarkko Jamsen and Sinot design pairing.

Сильные стороны и что учесть
Сильные стороны
- A proven, in-demand full-custom design pairingJarkko Jamsen (Aivan) drew the exterior and Sinot Yacht Design the interior, a pairing well documented across Boat International, SuperyachtTimes and YachtBuyer, and one that has kept her changing hands at high values rather than sitting unsold.
- Genuine ocean-capable engineeringTwin MTU 16V 4000 M63 diesels and a steel hull with aluminium superstructure give her a real 18.4 knot top speed, per YachtBuyer's specification listing, not just a stated cruising figure.
На что обратить внимание
- Current ownership cannot be confirmedSuperYachtFan names Sergey Brin as a subsequent owner, but this could not be corroborated against Brin's independently confirmed fleet (Dragonfly and the former Capricorn), and Feadship has never named an owner for this hull. This page treats current ownership as unconfirmed.
- The name has changed twice since delivery, and a second, unrelated 100 metre Feadship also called Pi existsDelivered as Syzygy 818, sold and renamed Pi within about three months, then resold and renamed back to 818. Howard Schultz, who owned her as Pi, separately commissioned an unrelated, much larger 100 metre Feadship delivered in 2025 that also carries the name Pi - the two are frequently confused in press coverage and search results.
