HEESEN YACHTS

Notable Deliveries and Models

In the early 2000s, Heesen Yachts achieved widespread acclaim with the successful launch of the Heesen 3700 model, a swift 37-meter flybridge motor yacht constructed entirely of aluminum. Omega Architects, a prominent Dutch yacht design studio, was responsible for the exterior design, resulting in the delivery of ten units of this model.Frank Laupman, the founder of Omega Architects, has lent his design expertise to numerous Heesen yacht projects over the past two decades. His most substantial undertaking to date is the 65-meter motor yacht Galactica Star, delivered in 2013. Other notable models designed by Omega Architects and constructed by Heesen include the Heesen 4700, Heesen 5000, Heesen 55M Steel Laurentia, Heesen 50M Aluminium FDHF Home, and more recently, Heesen 50M Steel Arkadia, Heesen 5000 Aluminum Aquamarine, and Heesen 5700 Aluminum Akira.

Shipyard History

Established in 1978 by Frans Heesen in Oss, The Netherlands, Heesen Yachts pioneered the use of aluminum in yacht hulls, marking a historic milestone in Dutch shipbuilding. Since then, the company has risen to prominence as a global leader in designing, engineering, and crafting high-performance motor yachts. In 1992, Heesen expanded its portfolio to include the construction of traditional displacement yachts, featuring steel hulls. Today, Heesen Yachts continues to deliver superyachts ranging from 30 to 80 meters in length and beyond.

The current fleet encompasses a diverse range of vessels, including aluminum, steel, displacement, semi-displacement, and the innovative fast displacement (FDHF) designs developed in collaboration with Van Oossanen Naval Architects. Heesen Yachts proudly holds membership in the Superyacht Builders Association (SYBAss).
