Story
The pioneering new 35m expedition-style motor yacht FOX was delivered in the Spring of 2024.
Proudly British, FOX hails from the drawing boards of Q London, with Falmouth-based shipyard Pendennis in charge of her engineering and construction. Burgess has been working with the team since inception and is excited to see her out on the water.
Ian Sherwood, broker, Burgess, says ‘It is fantastic to witness her maiden voyage down to the Mediterranean. As her delivery was eagerly anticipated, we are certain that she will be well regarded by all those she encounters.’
As a compact explorer, FOX is going to entice a new breed of adventure traveller. She is ideal for those seeking an alternative to the traditional milk run and therefore will be highly popular with those searching for something different.
FOX is aptly named after one of Falmouth's most famous sons: Robert Were Fox the Younger. He was a 19th century scientist who enabled exploration by inventing a compass that measured magnetic dip at sea in high latitudes, a compass that ultimately guided the expedition that discovered the South Pole. The associations between FOX, Falmouth and exploration are ones that resonate strongly in one of the very few genuine explorer yachts of this size.
Her striking exterior design is muscular and practical, almost military, in appearance, and her beach-house style interiors are bright and modern with an emphasis on comfort, versatility and safety. Key to her design is the 103.5sqm (1,114sqft) main deck aft, which enables her to carry a huge range of equipment, from water toys and two 7.5m (24.6ft) tenders to amphibious vehicles and submersibles, launched by two 2.5T SWL deck cranes - carrying capacity usually unheard of in a yacht of this size.
With the toys launched, the main deck aft has endless possibilities for relaxation and entertainment. The space includes a DJ station, open-air dining and bar with optional shade from awnings. A glass-walled family room or media sky lounge, with a wine cellar in the lobby, opens onto a 46sqm (495sqft) terrace with BBQ and open-air dining, as well as walkaround sidedecks that lead to lounge seating forward of the bridge.
