    Must be a typo, press release stated berths for 19 crew? 80 meter and 19 crew. Good luck with that...

    Pretty similar to Oceanco's Project Shark.

    Seems somewhat consistent with the Silver series I believe but that is a 77 meter yacht at 850GT versus 1700GT.

    She seems to be an enlarged Galactica Super Nova, with a comparable crew size. they have definitely pushed up the gross tonnage though, that superstructure looks huge.

    Heesen’s 47m Book Ends has been listed for sale. Just noticed today that the first Viking 93 has been sold and now is named Book Ends. Looks like the owner might have downsized a bit here.

    They owned previously a Viking 62 and 72 besides their bigger yacht.

    That makes sense to have as those are sportfishers but the 93 is a motoryacht and not even a cockpit motoryacht. They added outriggers still but not designed as a tournament fisher like the other Vikings.

    The "BOOK ENDS" name continues on with the sale of the under construction Project Sapphire. This couple purchased the yacht and it will become the new BOOK ENDS when delivered in June 2022.

    Two Russian board members at Heesen have allegedly stepped down. "We have worked closely with Heesen's board of directors for over ten years with passion and dedication to develop what once was a family-owned business into an internationally reputed shipyard," says Pavel Sukhoruchkin and Pavel Novoselov in a statement. "The current situation imposes us to step back for the good of a company that is close to our hearts. We wish success and strength through these times to the Heesen board of directors and all the employees."

    Heesen is now 100% Dutch owned again. This situation really has this yard on the run just like many of the owner-sanctioned yachts. An independent Dutch Foundation is now the owner. The Board of the Dutch Foundation consists of Arthur Brouwer and Anjo Joldersma. Its' objective is to "guarantee the successful future of the shipyard and the continuity of employment for the highly qualified employees of Heesen Yachts."
