This 55-metre Heesen 55m Steel motor yacht is a modern Dutch-built displacement superyacht offering refined engineering, contemporary styling, impressive range, and a comprehensive 2023 refit. Delivered in 2017 as the second hull in the successful Heesen 55m Steel series, she combines Omega Architects exterior design, Van Oossanen naval architecture, Radyca interiors, and the build quality associated with Heesen’s Northern European pedigree.

Build, Design & Exterior Character:
Constructed with a full displacement steel hull and aluminium superstructure, the yacht measures 55 metres in length with a 9.6-metre beam and 3.2-metre draft. Her 740 GT volume is arranged across three teak decks. The white hull and superstructure, black boot top, low profile, raked bow, and long horizontal lines create a clean and elegant profile. Built to Lloyd’s Register standards and flying the Marshall Islands flag, she offers international cruising flexibility and strong technical credibility.

Performance, Range & Engineering:
Twin MTU 8V 4000 M63 diesel engines produce 1,350 hp each for a combined 2,700 hp. Twin screw propulsion delivers smooth, efficient, and reliable cruising. The yacht reaches approximately 16 knots and cruises at 13 knots, with an estimated range of 4,500 nautical miles from 106,749 litres of fuel capacity. Freshwater capacity totals 24,999 litres. Stabilizers operate underway and at anchor, while bow thrusters improve docking and marina handling. Engineering systems include professional engine mounts, cooling systems, fuel filtration, exhaust systems, vibration reduction, shore power, battery banks, electrical distribution, inverter and charger systems, generators, and compliant plumbing systems.

Guest Accommodation & Interior Design:
The yacht accommodates up to 12 guests across six cabins. The forward main deck owner’s suite spans the beam and features large vertical windows, private study, walk-in wardrobe, lounge area, and ensuite bathroom with separate bath and shower. Guest accommodation includes one VIP suite, two double cabins, and two twin cabins with Pullman berths. Interiors by Radyca use whitened oak, wengé, marble, leather, and soft grey tones to create a calm, refined, and contemporary onboard atmosphere.

Social Spaces & Entertainment:
The main deck saloon integrates formal dining for 12 guests within an open flowing space, supported by expansive side windows and low-profile furnishings to preserve views. A central staircase connects the decks, while the sky lounge offers lounge seating, bar area, and access to an exterior terrace with sun protection. Entertainment systems include satellite television, Starlink connectivity, Wi-Fi, synchronized audio and media systems, and an outdoor cinema with advanced 360-degree projection visible from interior and exterior areas.

Additional features include gym equipment, shared-space gym area, massage room, underwater lights, exterior cinema, and well-arranged outdoor entertainment spaces.
