EXPLORE THE WORLD At Heesen, we understand that a sea voyage brings people together. It is not a way to escape life, but for life not to escape us. We also know that exploration is the engine that drives innovation… Four years ago we launched Xventure, Heesen’s first explorer concept design, which coupled our technical expertise with the creative flair of Winch Design. The result was a 57-metre motor yacht with dramatic good looks and rugged capability. Following the latest design and technology developments, we’ve now revisited the concept and refreshed it with new solutions, new layouts and new appeal to create the XV67.
EXTERIOR | 11
The new XV67 remains true to our original design intent: to create an exceptionally capable and beautiful bluewater voyager that will inspire owners to venture into new terrain. And turn heads wherever they go.

Engineered to travel off the beaten track in total safety and five-star comfort, the robust steel hull remains, but at 67 metres, she is 10 metres longer than her predecessor. The option of hybrid propulsion is now available on all Heesen yachts and the XV67 is no exception. The clean-cut and avant-garde exterior lines make a bold statement: this is a yacht designed to roam the Galapagos islands or even the Arctic Ocean, but still look elegant and utterly at home in St Tropez or Portofino. That’s why we call it a cross-over.

OUR DNA We have long pursued one consistent mission: to create yachts with exceptional engineering and high attention to detail. We achieve this with a highly-skilled workforce and a passion for perfection. The aim is to fulfill every customer’s dream. Each yacht is built in-house, using the hardest steel and the strongest aluminium. This craftsmanship is matched by a hunger for innovation and challenge. The result: designs that continue to push limits and set the industry’s benchmark. But the Heesen experience goes beyond building a perfect yacht. It’s about exceeding the client’s expectations with first-class service throughout the customer journey.

PRIME TECHNOLOGY Building a yacht is one of the most challenging construction processes in the world. Few activities require as much skill or expertise. What’s more, in this high-tech era of robots and automated production, a Heesen yacht is still largely crafted by hand. We are known worldwide for our expert welding. It is always a magical moment when the first curves of the hull appear, and the yacht’s design comes to life. We construct our yachts out of aluminium – which requires highly skilled and experienced welders – and steel. The exterior outfitting stage is the biggest challenge within yacht building; difficult to do but we execute it to perfection.
SHIPYARD | 61
HAND-BUILT IMAGINATION As one of the few yacht builders to have an entire in-house department of interior specialists, we guarantee quality and custom design solutions to spark your imagination. Our main interior workshop is in Winterswijk, just over an hour’s drive from Oss. It provides more than 8,100 square metres of working space, allowing craftspeople to work on up to five Heesen projects at the same time. This is where all the luxury areas – such as the dining area, owner’s stateroom and guest suites – are created. At the shipyard in Oss, a large group of craftspeople work on the service areas, interiors and sky lounges. Interior building requires a lot of skill and machinery and is one of the reasons why we invest so heavily in young talent. “The interior workshop has evolved over time, and we are very proud of it and our many award-winning yacht interiors,” says Henry Schreur, director of Heesen Interiors. Examples include the acclaimed My Sky, Galactica Star, Elena, Amore Mio, Galactica Super Nova and the mighty Galactica.
SHIPYARD | 63
Mock-up The interior construction process consists of two phases: The first is the creation of a full-sized, fullyfinished interior mock-up fitted with handles, switches, lamps, fabrics and flooring. If the owner approves the concept, the interior team begins the workshop drawings and materials sourcing. Exquisite materials The second phase is the creation of the interior. The craftspeople work with all types of exclusive wood, including teak, wenge and Macassar ebony. We also use glass, ray and goat skin, marble, onyx and other minerals. There are no limits to what our interior specialists can create. Perfect finish Raw materials, such as bamboo, wood and leather, differ from each other in their colour or texture. To create uniformity, our interior specialists treat each piece of wood and animal skin by bleaching, staining or dying. Every piece needs to look exactly like its proposed design. Interior assembly All the interior elements are created in the wood shops in Oss and Winterswijk and are then assembled and finished on board the yacht. This requires a range of skills and expertise to achieve a perfect result.

AFTER SALES AND YACHT SERVICES With an ever-expanding fleet of superyachts cruising the world, it was only natural for us to broaden our scope of services and launch a comprehensive programme called ‘Yacht Services by Heesen’. Alongside the shipyard’s existing After Sales, which ensures premium care and provides maintenance and technical support throughout the yacht’s entire lifespan, the Yacht Services programme enhances owners’ overall experience and improves the operational reliability of their assets. In addition, we proactively reach out to all owners with the range of yacht services detailed on the following pages. Original Spare Parts & Provisioning By offering original components at all hours, we ensure operational reliability and avoid a delayed or cancelled cruise due to technical failures. We also offer owners a complete package of recommended spare parts before they take delivery. To be able to offer this, we maintain excellent relations with all equipment suppliers in food, beverage, crew clothing and medical equipment, etc., to make sure high-quality, warranty-protected and competitively priced parts arrive on time.
SHIPYARD | 67
Refit We introduced our refit service to ensure Heesen’s Dutch quality standards are maintained throughout the lifecycle of our yachts. Owners sometimes need to fall back on local shipyards and subcontractors when maintenance and repair work is required. Therefore, we provide managerial assistance on necessary refit, repair and renewal work, either from a distance or on location. A flying squad of technicians is ready to travel at a moment’s notice to any location in the world. Customer Support & Warranty Our Warranty team looks after all claims and warranty requirements. Our Customer Support provides general 24/7 assistance to any Heesen client in need, even on location thanks to our flying squad. By offering a 5-year, 10-year or 15-year Class Survey to all our yachts through our dedicated After Sales team, we ensure the Heesen quality-standard continues long after delivery.
