News: Heesen Sells 55M Project 'Antares'

55-meter Project 'Antares' Sold At Heesen
​

Another 55-meter build at Dutch builder Heesen has been sold. The vessel is currently under construction and is called Project 'Antares' or hull YN18455. She features a hull boasting the Van Oossanen Naval Architects Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF). Exterior design is by Omega Design while the interior is by Francesco Paszkowski. The yacht has been sold to an American client who is described as a seasoned owner with sportfisherman experience. As a result of this, Project Antares will feature a number of custom facets to fulfill the owner's wishes.

The use for the yacht is one that is interesting. We spoke about the owner's interest in sportfishing and they are planning to utilize this new yacht in a mothership role where it could support a small fleet of sport fishing vessels with fuel and supplies. Project Antares will still be a luxury yacht featuring comfortable and voluminous interior of 740GT. Back in March we alerted you to the sale of Project 'Alida', another 55-meter from Heesen. Project Antares is a very near sister to her but the interior layout is a bit different. The owner's suite is actually a bit larger comprising 80 square meters and located in the tradition forward main deck position. Guests can enjoy two twins, two doubles and a full-width VIP-grade suite on the lower deck. The interior is by Francesco Paszkowski with collaboration with Margherita Casprini. Some materials you can expect to see onboard include Alpilignum Teak, Travertino and Calacatta marbles. Look out for this new Heesen to be delivered to her owner in November 2018.
