Heesen Project Grace - 50M Steel brochure

FIRST GLANCE AT OUR NEW 50M STEEL

All roads start with the guts to dream

Chasing it wherever it takes you

That dream is the fuel, required to create

Driven by passion, guided by expertise

Follow that path, to explore, to feel

THIS IS WHAT WE DO

CRAFTED IN HOLLAND

Home of yacht building! It is no coincidence that the best shipyards in the world are found in Holland. Our passion for yacht building and our commitment to quality is unmatched. And that is what makes Heesen the world’s leading builder of high-performance yachts.

STEEL & ALUMINIUM 50 - 80M

All of our yachts – displacement, semi-displacement and fast displacement – are engineered and built in the nine sheds at our shipyard in Oss. All our yachts are recognised for their innovative engineering and exceptional performance, stability and comfort. We build in-house using the hardest steel and the strongest aluminium.

ON BOARD SERVICES

We make sure your crew are fully involved throughout the build process, from start to finish. Even after the yacht is delivered, we continue to train them and proactively maintain your yacht on board, at our shipyard or at one of our maintenance and refitpartners around the world.

SUSTAINABLE YACHTING

We all must take responsibility to better protect what we love. By introducing BlueNautech, we continue to support the future of sustainable yachting through improved efficiencies, alternative materials, energy savings and alternative production methods.

PROJECT GRACE IS A HEESEN SERIES YACHT

All of our Heesen Series yachts have a proven track record, based upon the experience we have gained from previous builds. These yachts are fully designed and engineered. We can deliver them faster because we build them as speculative ventures. Customisations to the interior can still be made but are dependent on delivery times and schedule.

Total proven yacht engineering and design

Fast delivery due to our speculation programme

Customisation options possible to a certain extent

Our Smart Custom yachts are fully engineered above and below the main deck but can be offered with a custom- designed superstructure. These yachts benefit from our proven track record in hull design and technology. All together, our Smart Custom yachts enjoy a smart balance between performance, speed of delivery and customisation.

Proven hull engineering and design

Faster delivery due to shorter engineering times

Custom choice of superstructure and more elements

Our Full Custom offer starts with a blank sheet of paper or is inspired by one of our concepts. All the client’s wishes are fully considered by our naval architects and designers. If requested by the client, we offer ideas and insight based on our previous full-custom yachts. To highlight our design and building capabilities, we also create concepts to inspire potential clients and stakeholders in the market.

A YACHT THAT WILL STAND THE TEST OF TIME

At Heesen, we do not sit on our laurels. We like to embrace the future by crafting it. This is how the new 50-metre series came to be. The sales and marketing department and our engineers put their brains together to conceive the brief for a yacht that will stand the test of time. Harrison Eidsgaard put their pencils to paper inspired by our team’s vision.

GRACE AND THE SIX PRINCIPLES OF TIMELESS BEAUTY

SIMPLICITY

Renowned design studio Harrison Eidsgaard created a profile that is not radical or extravagant, but refined in its simplicity, conceived to stand the test of time.

ELEGANCE

Grace is all about subtle sophistication and craftsmanship, with an interior penned by Harrison Eidsgaard to holistically complement her exterior lines and created in-house by Heesen artisans using the finest materials.

FLOW

The interior layout offers optimal lifestyle space for the guests, while ensuring the perfect workflow for the crew to deliver a top-notch experience.

SPORTINESS

In keeping with Heesen’s DNA, the fast and sporty appearance reflects her dynamic performance. She’s available with Heesen’s hybrid technology offering intelligent power management and silent cruising.

CONFIDENCE

At 50 metres and 499 GT, Heesen’s new series will feature a Fast Displacement steel hull of great seaworthiness for optimal comfort in all sea conditions.

NATURAL

The interior connection to the outdoors comes from plenty of natural light and fresh air from sliding windows in the main saloon on the main deck.

A NEW DEPARTURE IN YACHT DESIGN

Bringing nature together with the visual language of luxury living in one bold and persuasive styling statement.

The latest 50-metre steel hulled yacht marks a bold departure for the shipyard, combining advanced sustainable technologies with visual inspiration drawn from across the luxury design industry.

FORGING TIMELESS LUXURY WITH PEDER EIDSGAARD

“The design of Heesen’s 50-metre steel exudes confidence,” commented Peder Eidsgaard. “In keeping with the company DNA, it translates the fast and sporty look of the aluminium yachts into dynamic and agile forms. The profile is not radical or extravagant but refined and timeless. This is a yacht conceived to stand the test of time.”

Eidsgaard added: “The keys to a successful layout in a 499GT yacht are simplicity and versatility. We want to achieve the maximum possible lifestyle space for the guests while ensuring that the crew have the perfect working space to deliver a top-notch experience. Features such as the infinity pool, or the unique coffee table on the sundeck, which doubles as an atrium skylight, will be focal points that invite guests to gather together. The sundeck will be large enough to hold up to 20 guests for outdoor dining. Hospitality is such an important element in yachting, and we wanted to ensure that visiting day-guests can be properly entertained too.”

For the next six months, Heesen engineers and the Harrison Eidsgaard team will work together on translating this design into a perfectly engineered superyacht. Construction is scheduled to commence in Summer 2024.

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.

INTRODUCING

INSPIRED BY THE OCEAN SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIES

INCREASING HULL EFFICIENCY

We have an impressive track record in creating lightweight and ultraefficient hull forms. The Fast Displacement Hull Form already decreases fuel consumption by 30%. Less weight means greater efficiency.

IMPROVING PROPULSION EFFICIENCY

Alternative fuels may be the future, but there are still huge possibilities to increase the efficiency of diesel-powered yachts. These include our acclaimed hybrid propulsion system, standard applications of SCR emission control and more efficient propeller designs.

SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION METHODS

Reducing yachting’s footprint includes a sustainable build process.

3D Printing, electrostatic paint-spraying, waste reduction and recycling can significantly reduce environmental impact.

SUSTAINABLE OPERATIONS

Improved waste management and electric-powered tenders are just two examples of how to reduce environmental impact and improve a yacht’s operational efficiency.

ALTERNATIVE MATERIALS AND RECYCLING

Each yacht is built from tons of steel, aluminium, wood and other materials that require sourcing and production. Innovation in this field includes extensive recycling and the use of alternative materials, such as sustainable woods.

ENERGY SAVING AT ANCHOR

On average, a yacht remains at anchor for 95% of the time. Sustainable power generators and waste heat recovery systems are therefore highly effective in reducing a yacht’s total energy consumption by increasing generator power and HVAC efficiency.
