Heesen News

I counter... it is a fairly well-balanced design... kudos Winch!

Expect to see these four yachts from Heesen delivered this year.

Two of them have been launched already, Project "Triton" and a sister to 50M hybrid yacht 'Electra'. Triton project is below.

...and that said Viking 93 is currently for sale too.

"Laurentia"...

Well..."Book Ends", the Heesen 47-meter has been sold now finally.

For those wanting to know, Heesen has a number of projects currently under construction at the yard in Oss and some are expected to complete soon, here is a little insight into some of the vessels they are building at present.
Shed 1: 50-meter Project 'SAPPHIRE' "BOOK ENDS" (YN19850) Delivery on track for end of June 2022.
Shed 2: 80-meter Project 'Cosmos' (YN19480) Delivery April 1 2022.

"Book Ends Team Hookers" (ex. "Book Ends") has been sold.

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.

The 2017-built "HOME" is now for sale.

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."
