About Heesen Yachts
A Legacy of Dutch Innovation
Founded in 1978 by Frans Heesen in Oss, Netherlands, Heesen Yachts quickly established itself as a pioneer in all-aluminum yacht construction. The shipyard gained international acclaim in 1988 with the launch of Octopussy, a 38-meter yacht that became the fastest luxury yacht in the world at the time, reaching speeds over 50 knots. Over the decades, Heesen has delivered more than 200 yachts, solidifying its reputation for engineering excellence and innovative design.
Tailored Design Excellence
Heesen offers a versatile approach to yacht building, providing clients with options ranging from fully custom builds to semi-custom and series yachts. Collaborations with renowned designers such as Omega Architects, Winch Design, and Bannenberg & Rowell ensure that each yacht reflects the owner's unique vision while maintaining Heesen's standards of quality and performance
Notable Builds and Clientele
Heesen's portfolio includes several groundbreaking yachts, such as the 80-meter Project Cosmos, the largest and fastest all-aluminum yacht built to date, and the 55-meter Solemates, a custom steel superyacht delivered to a repeat client. These projects exemplify Heesen's commitment to pushing the boundaries of yacht design and performance.
Pioneering Sustainability and Technology
Heesen is at the forefront of sustainable yacht building, integrating hybrid propulsion systems and energy-efficient technologies into its designs.
