Superyacht Guide Awards are editorial ratings based on available information and review criteria.
Gallant Lady is the launch name of a 51.21-metre Feadship completed in 2007 as hull 672. Feadship now lists the vessel under the name Acta. She was the eighth and final Gallant Lady created for the same owners, a remarkable sequence of commissions that allowed the design to evolve around a particularly detailed understanding of how the yacht would be used.
Unusually, the brief specified a vessel shallow enough to negotiate inland waterways and reach a private dock behind the owners' Florida home. The resulting draught is just 2.15 metres, with an overall beam of 10.07 metres. Feadship describes an aluminium build incorporating lightweight composite materials in the upper decks. The forward sections of the three superstructure levels use a pointed-oval form intended to produce a sleeker exterior appearance.
Among her defining interior features are a dramatic central stairway positioned beside three vertically arranged windows and a separate glass lift. The shipyard identifies this as the first and only elevator installed aboard a Gallant Lady. Feadship De Voogt Naval Architects supplied naval architecture; Studio De Voogt designed the exterior, and John Munford Design the interior.
Her two Caterpillar 3508B main engines are rated at 746 kilowatts apiece. The builder specifies a fuel capacity of 73,100 litres, freshwater capacity of 15,970 litres and range of 4,200 nautical miles at 12 knots. This combination of limited draught, long-range capacity and bespoke access arrangements exemplifies the owner's highly specific design priorities.

Indicative SYG estimate. Value basis: Length-and-age model using length. Central annual OPEX uses the established 14% of estimated yacht value fallback, adjusted for yacht age where available. Low and high cases reflect utilisation, condition, crewing, fuel, berthing and maintenance uncertainty. Capital reserve is shown separately from routine OPEX. Figures must be replaced or upgraded when reported accounts, invoices, court records or other yacht-specific evidence is available.
