What makes a Heesen so distinctive? Custom built in Holland, it is not just a matter of style but more

importantly, the contemporary application of engineering: the architecture of performance. Our concept

has evolved over 30 years and the experience we have accrued is unlike that of any other yacht builder in

the world. Building in steel to enormously demanding tolerances, the Heesen hull-form is unique – quite

simply no other ship shape so optimises the way a yacht moves through water. Our expertise in weight

reduction allows for the inclusion of exotic materials – marble, granite, rare woods and even metals,

without compromising performance. Indeed a Heesen is a Heesen because we are dedicated to one

principle: the performance of luxury.

ady Petra is our eighth full displacement steel yacht at 47 metres. Like every one before her, she was totally custom built.

The requirements of her hugely experienced Owner proved yet again that there is no such thing as a typical 47 metre

Heesen. The benefit of our experience means that we can deliver an exceptional yacht in less than 24 months with

industry leading quality and performance specifications.

With a bulbous bow and a hull optimised to slip through the water, this

is an extremely efficient piece of naval architecture. Requiring less

power to reach a chosen speed, she uses less fuel while cruising on a

range of over 4.000 miles. Furthermore, she has the largest possible

volume while still remaining under the 500GT threshold.

esigned by Omega Architects, the balance between the yacht’s interior volume and exterior space defies belief. The result

is 240 square metres of deck space set over three levels. Sun deck statistics? More than 85 square metres of space and an

overall length of 20 metres. Quality of construction comes from our ability to control every aspect of the build process and

we manufacture a particularly high proportion of components in-house.

Lady Petra was designed as a family yacht. Dining together

often takes place on the 52 square metre aft upper deck

that also serves as a private terrace to the master suite.

Demountable carbon pillars support a set of sails that can be furled into the perfect shape to

shade the decks as required. On the sun deck, glass screens create privacy

without obscuring the spectacular views.

nterior design by Bannenberg & Rowell was

based around a highly distinctive Dutch

Industrial Design style. Built by Heesen Yachts

Interiors and Sinnex, this is another example

of the extremely complex being made to look

deceptively simple.

Stainless steel plates, curved wenge panels,

brushed spruce and thin ribbons of tan

leather all buff together perfectly.

One of the most complex features is the

main saloon ceiling with light diffusion panels

split over three levels. Beige leather with

tan strips decorate channels either side.

ith the master suite on the upper deck, the main deck has space for a full-beam media lounge. Custom built furniture in silver

oak, angled sofas, heavily stepped ceiling and wall panels create a sophisticated atmosphere. A 65 inch screen is connected

to the Kaleidescape entertainment system. Set behind this unusual open plan cinema is a study with an adjacent treadmill.

The master suite occupies the entire aft half of the upper deck apart from a private terrace. The

suite has a breakfast lounge with a custom built lacquered table that rotates through 180 degrees.

With the Owner specifying a particularly large mattress (2.100 x 2.200mm), Heesen built the room

around the bed. In the master bathroom, backlit bamboo stalks are set behind frosted glass panelling.

uest accommodation was planned around

family requirements: grandparents, parents

and lots of children. Of particular note is a VIP

twin suite on the upper deck in addition to two double and two

twin cabins on the lower deck.

Heesen believes that the quality of the technical and

professional areas directly affects the performance

both of the crew and the yacht. Piping, cabling, welding

and all other mechanical elements are installed

with meticulous care and with future maintenance

requirements in mind.

A Heesen will always stand for individuality and quality in a world

where these ideals are increasingly compromised.

A Heesen will always be hand-built by craftsmen in Holland.

A Heesen will always be custom-built to combine the Owner’s ideas with our expertise.

A Heesen will always be the highest denominator of performance and luxury.

A Heesen will always look like a Heesen because it performs like a Heesen.

44.000 SQUARE METRES SHIPYARD FROM 37-65METRES AND BEYOND 4.000.000PARTS PER YEAR OVER150YACHTS BUILT SINCE 1978

nyone looking to purchase a new yacht from Heesen, should be confident that the quality of the Company is

equal to that of the yachts. Frans Heesen founded the Company that bears his name in 1978. Building yachts

in aluminium with performance as a priority, overcoming challenges has always driven our spirit of

innovation. Having developed the most sophisticated pre-engineered platforms, our yachts are delivered

in a time scale and to a quality that is unsurpassed. Heesen is recognised as the world leader in

aluminium construction and it is particularly pleasing that our steel yachts consistently win major

awards. In one of the most modern construction facilities in the world, every aspect of every yacht is

geared towards achieving our exceptional standards of engineering. For the quality, at the price,

we believe Heesen yachts are the finest value in the world.

In 30 years we have delivered over 150 yachts. The current

range includes aluminium and steel, displacement, semi-

displacement and the new revolutionary fast displacement.

Our Oss shipyard has nine sheds and five dry docks. Each year,

over four million parts are meticulously used in the construction

of up to eight yachts. Privately owned, financially secure,

Heesen is large enough to cope with complex construction,

small enough to care about each project, motivated to pioneer

innovations and dedicated to continue the tradition of Dutch

quality shipbuilding.

In 1978 the shipyard started life as a visionary idea –

today it is a company called Heesen.
