Scheduled for delivery in 2025 is the striking Project Orion by Heesen Yachts. Known best for their high-performance aluminium superyachts, the 50-metre Project Orion is the quintessential Heesen, with a strong focus on innovation and cutting-edge design.
Full Description
Exterior Design & Engineering
Frank Laupman of Omega Architects masterfully shaped Project Orion’s exterior, resulting in a sleek and elegant profile with a near-vertical bow that effortlessly cuts through the waves. As a fast displacement superyacht, Project Orion defies expectations, offering the thrill of speed without sacrificing the ability to explore hidden coves in remarkable comfort.
Crafted from lightweight aluminium, Project Orion belongs to Heesen’s advanced 50-metre Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) series. This innovative design combines her FDHF with hybrid propulsion for exceptional efficiency and range, allowing her to achieve a top speed of 16.3 knots while boasting an impressive range of 3,750 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 12 knots. This translates to the freedom to explore distant destinations of island-hop in style, all the while minimising fuel consumption.
Amenities
Project Orion invites you to create lasting memories across her thoughtfully designed decks. Her expansive sundeck boasts a bubbling Jacuzzi, perfect for soaking up the sun and cooling off with breathtaking views. Al fresco dining options abound, whether it’s a casual brunch on the aft deck or a formal soirée under the stars. And for those seeking fitness and relaxation, a dedicated gym and sauna offer a chic, serene escape.
Interior Design
Crafted by long-time Heesen collaborator, Cristiano Gatto, Project Orion’s interiors are spacious and sophisticated. Open bulwarks bathe the interior in natural light, creating a seamless connection to the surrounding seascape. Gatto’s masterful use of materials elevates the onboard experience. High-gloss woods gleam alongside woven leather accents, while beautiful marbles and custom carpets add a touch of timeless elegance. A thoughtful contrast of colours and shapes throughout ensures a thoroughly contemporary and sophisticated ambiance.
The six-stateroom layout caters to both private use and charter. Her full-beam master stateroom on the main deck forward provides a private space to getaway, while a VIP stateroom and four additional cabins offer luxurious accommodations for friends and family.
With her launch date fast approaching, now is the time to get in touch with your Edmiston superyacht broker to discuss customisation options.
