The shipyard from Oss in the Netherlands gave "Irisha" a colour triad that matches her lines extremely well: The hull is metallic Pacific blue, the superstructure of the main deck is midnight blue and the rest is snow white. The masculine exterior was created by the London design studio Harrison Eidsgaard, which also set striking accents in the interior. The wheelhouse, for example, is reminiscent of fighter jet cockpits. The interior is dominated by a neutral colour palette of beige, grey and blue. A winter garden on the main deck, which connects to the eight-metre-long saloon via sliding glass doors, promises a high level of comfort. Up to 22 people can be seated at the dining table, and ten guests and nine crew members can stay overnight on board. "Irisha" is based on Heesen's currently extremely popular 5000 aluminium class and - as is typical of Heesen's aluminium yachts - has a potent engine room. Two MTU 16 cylinders, each with 3440 kilowatts, provide a range of 3000 nautical miles at eleven knots. Heesen presents "Irisha" at the Monaco Yacht Show.
