The new steel yacht previously appeared in the shipyard's portfolio as the "Venus" project, and owner's representative Rupert Connor (Luxury Yachts) is more than happy that his customer has placed another order with Heesen Yachts. "The building process with the Dutch shipyard was once again a pleasure."
"Solemates" is now being commissioned and is preparing for her maiden voyage to the North Sea, where she will undergo rigorous testing. The 55 metres are proof of the owner's clear vision of a very personal ship. The design focussed on creating an inviting family atmosphere - for shared moments at sea.
The interior plays with a blue-green colour palette
The customised interior design is carried out by Heesen Yachts engineers together with Silvia Margutti from Luca Dini Design and Architecture. The aim is to create spaces that perfectly reflect the owner's preferences. Colours such as lime green, blue-green and baby aqua blue are both elegant and family-friendly.
The main staircase is a cool feature, with gold flakes and crystals shining in the acrylic panels. The saloon on the bridge deck is perfect for family gatherings, while the sun deck with its large whirlpool and bar offers the best views of the sea.
Heesen Yachts aims to exceed all expectations
Niels Vaessen, CEO of Heesen Yachts, commented enthusiastically: "The launch of 'Solemates' demonstrates our commitment to delivering exceptional quality and innovative design. We pride ourselves on building yachts that not only fulfil our customers' expectations, but exceed them."
"Solemates" is set to make her grand debut at the Monaco Yacht Show in September 2025, followed by an appearance at the Palm Beach International Boat Show in 2026. Delivery to the owner is scheduled for the second quarter of 2025 in Heesen Yachts' calendar.
