In a festive ceremony in South Holland, the yacht was "ALP" von Heesen Yachts. After successfully completing the North Sea tests, she is now awaiting her maiden voyage.

The 50-metre semi-displacement yacht impresses with speed, elegance and comfort. The christening of the "ALP" in Hellevoetsluis marks a milestone for the shipyard. Following successful tests in the North Sea, the yacht is ready for her first voyage. The CCO of Heesen, Mark Cavendish, and the team of Superyachts Monaco worked together for this and he is looking forward to the future adventures of the "ALP".

"ALP" offers more than just fast cruising

The exterior lines of the yacht, designed by Frank Laupman, radiate speed and sportiness without sacrificing elegance. With a top speed of 23 knots, the "ALP" offers fast cruising paired with luxury and state-of-the-art technology.

Spacious outdoor areas and a beach club on board

The interior design of the "ALP", created by Cristiano Gatto and the in-house engineers, fulfils the high demands of the owners on almost 380 square metres. The motor yacht's spacious outdoor areas are ideal for entertaining guests at sea and offer numerous opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment.

The seamless connection between the bridge deck and the Sky Lounge creates a large and sheltered al-fresco area. On the main deck aft there are raised sunbeds, which are served by an adjoining bar. The elevated position of this area provides guests with privacy when "ALP" is moored at the stern in a marina. This area also allows for a beach club. When the stern hatch is open, there is a view of the beach club, creating one of the most coveted spots on board.

Explore the Bahamas or the Mediterranean with the "ALP

With its shallow draught of just 2.10 metres, the "ALP" is ideal for exploring the Bahamas. At the same time, the 50-metre yacht is perfect for entering the harbours of the Mediterranean.
