Heesen Yachts
Founded by Frans Heesen in 1978 in Oss1, Netherlands, Heesen Yachts was the first Dutch shipyard to employ aluminium alloy for the building of yacht hulls. Since that time the yard has become a world leader in the design, engineering and construction of high performance, all-aluminium motor yachts. Held to the highest standards, it is not just a matter of style but more importantly, the contemporary application of engineering: the architecture of performance. 2013 saw two new releases, including the 50-meter Crazy Me, but the Heesen 65M remains the world’s largest fast displacement yacht with a 20-meter sundeck, an enormous “beach club” area, heli-pad and a glass-bottomed swimming pool with views of the bar underneath.
