Advanced Craftsmanship and Construction
Heesen’s proprietary Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) ensures superior seaworthiness and comfort. Steel hulls are crafted off-site by Talsma, a trusted Dutch shipyard known for its expertise in steel construction.
Talsma’s partnership with Heesen guarantees precision and quality, adhering to strict protocols at every stage. After completion, the steel hull is transported to Heesen’s Oss shipyard, where outfitting, including engine room installation, will take place.
Innovative Design by Harrison Eidsgaard
The yacht’s sleek profile features sharp lines, low bulwarks, and full-height windows, enhancing natural light and the connection to the outdoors. With its timeless design, Project Grace embodies sophistication while ensuring functionality.
The layout optimizes guest comfort and crew efficiency, with separate routing for discreet service and ample storage for tenders and toys.
Luxury Meets Sustainability
Project Grace incorporates Heesen’s optional hybrid propulsion system, allowing for intelligent power use and silent cruising, combining eco-conscious innovation with the highest standards of luxury.
Lifestyle-Focused Features
The yacht offers thoughtful touches, including a sundeck coffee table that doubles as an atrium skylight and an infinity pool as a social focal point. The layout ensures simplicity and versatility, with spacious dining and entertainment areas designed to cater to guests and day visitors alike.
Statement from the Designers
Peder Eidsgaard, the designer behind the project, describes the yacht as “refined and timeless,” designed to stand the test of time. The aesthetic blends Heesen’s sporty DNA with modern elegance, creating a vessel that is both dynamic and enduring.
