Company Introduction
Anyone looking to purchase a new yacht from Heesen should be confident that the quality of the Company is equal to that of the yachts. The fact that this is the case is due in no small part to the principles of the founder. Frans Heesen founded the Company that bears his name in 1978. Where most yachts were made from steel, his yachts were to be built in aluminum. Where most yachts had displacement hull-forms for slow, long distance cruising, his yachts were to use semi-displacement hulls and be performance-driven. A Heesen is a Heesen because we are dedicated to one principle: the performance of luxury.
