Dutch shipyard Heesen has a solid reputation for building redefined, luxurious superyachts which are known throughout the industry for their exceptional performance, cutting-edge technology and timeless design. Established in 1978 by Frans Heesen, the yard has launched more than 170 yachts to date. Working from its facility in Oss, the yard builds semi-custom and fully custom long-range superyachts up to 80 metres in aluminium and steel. Over the years, Heesen has pioneered the use of aluminium alloy in yacht hulls, building fast, stable and high-performance superyachts. Heesen’s largest superyacht to date, the 80.7m Cosmos, is set to push the yard’s boundaries even further.
