Haute Yacht: 197-foot Feadship Yacht Paraffin Listed for $57 Million
Formally owned by Mike Kittredge of Yankee Candle Company, Paraffin is a 197-foot yacht that is back on the market for $57 million.
Kittredge sold Yankee Candle Company in 1998 for $500 million and named his Feadship superyacht Paraffin. The extremely luxurious yacht was first launched in 2001 and subsequently refitted in 2010. Kittridge and his wife, Lisa, redid the yacht to maximize entertainment options by adding a small bar in the entry foyer, traditional raised panel mahogany interior, a 400 bottle wine cellar with storage for one glass per bottle, as 12-person gym, a steam room, a whirlpool, accommodation for 12 guests and 17 crew, a large bath outfitted in yellow Onice marble and heated floors, a large walk in closet, a full-beam VIP cabin (with an extra bed, games room, flat-screen TV and home movie system) and enough space for 20 to dine.
The large Master Suite spans the full beam of Paraffin on the main deck and all guest accommodations feature full CD/DVD/entertainment centers with video on demand. All rooms on board are totally sound-isolated from the hall to ensure vibration free quiet and privacy, even when the yacht is moving.
Fraser Yachts is now selling the yacht for $57 million.

Paraffin - 60m feadship Superyacht
This huge superyacht made an appearance at Sentosa Cove in 2022. Although she isn’t the largest yacht ever to sail into the marina, she is the largest that we, personally, have witnessed in this prestigious location. This pedigree Feadship is the 62nd largest they have built, and she is ranked as 468th largest yacht in the world.
She is 60.1m in length, (197’02”), and she has a GT of 1,092. Her draft is 3.25m and her beam is 10.5m. She can carry up to 139,300 litres of fuel, plus 32,800 litres of water on board, and with her twin Caterpillar 3516B DITA Diesel engines she has a top speed of 16 knots. With a cruising speed of 12.5 knots, she has a range of 4,200 nautical miles.
This yacht was built for Mike Kittredge, the American founder of The Yankee Candle Company, hence the name!
The superyacht’s builder; Feadship delivered her in 2001 from their Royal Van Lent shipyard. She later underwent a refit in 2005, 2010 and in 2016.
She can accommodate up to 14 guests in exquisite luxury with a Master Cabin, VIP suite, 3 x double staterooms and a twin stateroom. All cabins have their own en-suite. Plus, there is accommodation for an impressive 17 crew members!
Paraffin has an aluminium superstructure, and her mono hull is steel. Her exterior design and architecture is the work of De Voogt and consists of 3 huge decks.
Lady Candy (56m), Annabella (44.5m) and Trident (46m), all look rather small when moored next to Paraffin (see photo above and video below). These 4 superyachts are still currently either moored at Sentosa Cove or exploring other locations in Southeast-Asia. Click here to read about these superyachts and more.
Her opulent dark mahogany interior was penned and refined by Larvor, and she offers endless entertainment for all onboard. Features include an extraordinary, chilled wine cellar that holds over 400 bottles, a top-deck gym with 360° views, a home cinema, indoor and outdoor bar, steam room, plus an outdoor whirlpool spa. Not to mention the armada of watersports toys.
In 2019, Paraffin had an asking price of €28,500,000. We believe that Paraffin once had charter prices of approx €254,000 p/week or approx €42,250 p/day. However, she is currently listed as a private yacht and is therefore no longer available for charter. Most recently, she has been exploring the waters between Langkawi, Malaysia and Phuket, Thailand.

Feadship 197 Paraffin
- By Yachting Staff
- Updated: October 4, 2007
With a traditional raised panel mahogany interior highlighted by carved rope moldings and inlaid stars, the 197-foot motoryacht Paraffin has a New England feel about her. That, and her name, are entirely appropriate, given that owners Mike and Lisa Kittredge tasked Feadship to build Paraffin after selling their business, the Yankee Candle Company.
Active owners who enjoy the yachting experience to the fullest, the Kittredges spent as many as 25 weeks per year on their previous yacht, a 142-footer built on spec by another yard. This gave them lots of time to document what they liked, what they didn’t like, and what they wanted on the next boat. The list focused on their three main interests: wining and dining, music, and exercise. The details, and there were many, filled in around these areas. For instance, Paraffin ‘s dining room has a 400-bottle “wine cellar and stowage for 450 wineglasses.
“At this stage of my life, I’ve learned a lot about potential mistakes when entertaining, and hurriedly washed wineglasses are one, Mike Kittredge said. “If we decide to hold an impromptu dinner aboard this yacht, there’ll be no need for any apologies.
The emphasis on guest enjoyment is apparent in one feature that brought a smile to my face. The main starboard entry foyer, a space that gets little use on most yachts, is enlarged just enough on Paraffin to include an intimate three-stool bar. Newly arrived guests, needing to unwind from their travels to the yacht, can get a quick snack and a drink while the crew gets their luggage to the proper stateroom.
In addition to the dining room table for 12, there is a dozen-seat table for alfresco dining aft on the bridge deck. Here, a separate pantry allows the crew to serve without disturbing guests in the sky lounge.
Between that open afterdeck and the bridge is a lounge where Mike Kittredge’s musical interests are addressed. A complete professional recording studio is integrated into the various lockers and pieces of furniture, stowed out of sight until needed. The mahogany tops slide off the custom tables, and the equipment is then raised to the proper playing height. Should nice weather beckon, most of the instruments can be moved to the main deck or aft bridge deck, where plugs await to tie them back into recording equipment in the bridge deck lounge.
Lest too much evidence of the good life start to accumulate in unwanted places, Paraffin is outfitted with a 12-person gym Feadship says is the largest and best equipped yet to grace one of its yachts. Located on the top deck, the glass-enclosed area is air conditioned, but sliding doors fore and aft open to allow a breeze through on pleasant days.
“Exercise is a high priority in our life, Lisa Kittredge said. “With each workout station having its own flat-panel TV and splendid views through the large windows, we have deliberately made the gym as appealing as possible.
After exercising, guests have access to an adjacent steam room or to a large whirlpool spa outside. In a clever bit of multitasking, the spa converts to a table that can seat 20 by adding a white multisection tabletop with teak inlays.
Even with a yacht as large as Paraffin , the inclusion of such amenities takes careful planning. Feeling that no one else could better understand what they wanted in their new yacht, the Kittredges undertook to design the yacht’s interior themselves, without a stylist or interior designer.
As Lisa Kittredge explained, “We have long enjoyed the challenge of altering, extending and redecorating our homes. While working with professional designers has many benefits, it also entails making compromises. The combination of our strong opinions and a dislike of hurting other people’s feelings made the shift toward a do-it-yourself philosophy inevitable.
Although the owners directed the design, they readily acknowledge that such a Herculean task must be a team effort. De Voogt Naval Architects, which carries out the naval architecture and marine engineering on all Feadships, worked closely with the Kittredges to integrate their ideas into the overall design.
“The great thing about De Voogt was that they didn’t seem to recognize the word ‘no,’ Mike Kittredge said. “Whatever ideas we came up with, they always tried to accommodate.
Another critical element in the design effort was the early involvement of the Kittredges’ crew, particularly Capt. Niels Ackermans and chef/personal assistant Robert Shepherd.
“We constantly asked the opinions of the entire crew, the people who really know the practical ins and outs, Lisa Kittredge said. “Mechanical functionality is equally essential to the aesthetics, and in this sense we were leading a team.
The crew’s input led to such design features as a bridge that affords a nearly 360-degree view from the helm, and a hidden niche in the guest lobby that opens to allow luggage to be brought through an after door directly to the guest staterooms. -D.D.

Motor Yacht
Luxury motor yacht Paraffin built in 2001 by Dutch shipyard Feadship, is a mixture of smooth lines and stunning décor that make her a truly atmospheric superyacht. With a steel hull and aluminium superstructure she features exterior design by De Voogt Naval Architects while her interior is the work of Larvor. This smart vessel measures 60.1 metres and can accommodate up to 12 guests.
The superyacht was built by Royal Van Lent, a Feadship member, under specific directions of the American owner, founder of Yankee Candle Company Mike Kittredge, to keep wine in mind. Remaining true to his desire, the yacht’s interior incorporates both subtle effects and bold reminders of Kittredge’s love for fine wine.
In the main saloon can be found a games table separated from the formal dining area by a chilled mahogany and glass cabinet that can hold over 400 bottles ready to be served at a moment’s notice. There is also stowage room for 450 wineglasses, the majority being Riedel and Spiegelau for wine-tasting parties. Feadship even collaborated with the yacht’s Head Chef to create transparent holdings for the glasses that would allow them to remain upright and visible by holding them by the stem even when the vessel is cruising at top speed.
Blessed with several entertaining areas, motor yacht Paraffin has formal areas on the main deck as well as a more casual area of relaxation above that includes a Jacuzzi convertible into a table to seat 24 guests if needed.
Her interior is dressed in dark mahogany with a matt varnish and furnished with traditional furniture, paintings and lighting. Perhaps the most stunning interior feature is the 1,600 stars scattered throughout the luxury yacht’s décor, covering everything from the walls and carpet to the unique artwork.
Spread lavishly over five decks, Paraffin boasts several special features including a shopping closet specifically for storing new on-shore purchases, and a hidden refrigerator made especially for housing flowers. The luxury superyacht is also home to a complete gym topped by a small observation bubble, and skylounge complete with a 61 inch television screen.
The motor yacht underwent a refit in 2005 that saw her top deck reconfigured to move the Jacuzzi forward of the gym and a generous seating are and wet bar added aft. In 2006, the interior was updated with new paint, carpets and fabrics and an upgrade of the TV and Audio systems was performed.
Amongst her six cabins are an indulgent master suite, four double rooms and a twin cabin. The master suite features a unique type of alarm clock that can be set to draw wide the curtains at a certain time in the morning.
Built originally to accommodate the owner’s family, Paraffin is now also available for charter. Featuring a dedicated crew, Paraffin is an excellent charter yacht for luxury vacations. The yacht cruises comfortably at 14 knots while her crew of 17 ensure the needs of every guest are met.
The luxury motor yacht is equipped with an armada of water toys to provide endless entertainment during any yacht charter. Onboard water toys include Boston Whalers, waverunners, sea kayaks, waterskis and tows, a dive compressor and a range of scuba, snorkelling and fishing equipment.
Although her home port is the south of France, she cruises the Mediterranean during the summer charter season and the Caribbean during winter.

1,000 rounds of ammunition and fireworks were onboard yacht that burned in Marina del Rey: Owner MARINA DEL REY, Calif. (KABC) -- The owner of a luxury yacht that erupted in flames and sank in Marina del Rey said 1,000 rounds of "unspent ammunition and fireworks" were onboard the vessel, according to fire officials. The Los Angeles County Fire Department provided an update on the incident in a social media post Thursday morning. The fire was reported shortly after 8:30 p.m. Wednesday at 211 Basin A, where flames engulfed the multi-level, 100-foot boat, the agency said. Residents in the area said they heard multiple explosions resonating throughout the harbor as yacht was consumed by flames. Fire officials said two people were able to get off the boat uninjured. Fire crews poured water onto the burning vessel, which later sank into the harbor.  An environmental hazard team was expected to arrive in Marina del Rey Thursday to assist with the cleanup of the burned vessel. A United States Coast Guard Incident Management Team from Sector Los Angeles-Long Beach is monitoring the cleanup efforts, according to the Coast Guard, which said that the yacht "caught fire and discharged red-dye diesel." "The fire did not appear to damage any other vessels in the harbor," the USCG said in a statement Thursday. "The Coast Guard is working with Patriot Environmental Services and Clean Harbors organizations to contain and recover the discharge from the yacht." The yacht's fuel capacity was reported to be 6,000 gallons, according to the Coast Guard. Crews from California Department of Fish and Wildlife's Office of Spill Prevention and Response and the L.A. County Sheriff's Department are also assisting in the efforts. The Oiled Wildlife Care Network was also notified and was on standby for wildlife response. "No observations of oiled wildlife have been reported at this time," the Coast Guard said Thursday morning. "For your safety and the safety of the animals, do not attempt to capture oiled animals." Witnesses were urged to report oiled wildlife to (877) 823-6926. City News Service contributed to this report. Related Topics

 53m Damen Yachting support vessel Five Oceans delivered to her ownerRelated articles, superyacht directory. Dutch yard Damen Yachting has delivered its second 53.3-metre support vessel, Five Oceans . This follows her launch in March 2024, which was completed in the presence of her "delighted owner" Tommy Allen. According to BOATPro , she is currently anchored in Nice, France ahead of her debut at this year's Monaco Yacht Show . Five Oceans will now assist Allen with his company Five Oceans Global Solutions – an organisation dedicated to marine conservation, resource management and safe, responsible deep-sea exploration. " Five Oceans will be used to research life below the surface of our oceans, a topic and cause central to Mr. Allen's operations and an important vision that we are honoured to be contributing to with this Yacht Support platform," said Jan van Hogerwou, commercial executive at Damen Yachting. He added: "Seeing her out in the open and ready for the final stages of her build before her delivery just a couple of months from now is the start of something truly exciting." Construction on Five Oceans began in December 2022 after two years of design and development. The YS 53 series is an evolution of the YS 5009 , which was originally based on Damen's commercial platforms. Highlights include a vast aft deck across a nine-metre beam for carrying toys and tenders with a 15-tonne deck crane for launch and recovery. The support yacht is powered by two Rolls Royce MTU engines delivering a combined total of 6,000hp and a top speed of 19 knots. The vessel is also fully IMO Tier III compliant, reducing harmful emissions by 70 per cent for full-range operations with a 5,000 nautical-mile range. According to the shipyard, Five Oceans is "strongly focused on highly demanding performance, efficiency and comfort." Five Oceans sits beneath the 500GT threshold and can carry anywhere between six and 16 guests or staff, depending on how the owner wishes to use the vessel, as well as accommodation for a crew of 10. According to BOATPro , Damen Yachting has seven units currently under construction, including a second YS 53. The news follows the delivery of the 60-metre superyacht Satemi .
