Irisha

Irisha is a semi-displacement Smart Custom 51-metre motor yacht with an impressive top speed of 26 knots. Her exterior lines, designed by British studio Harrison Eidsgaard, are founded on the successful engineering platform of Heesen’s award-winning 5000 Aluminium class. Driven by the owner’s desire for something “fairly aggressive and dynamic”, the radical design gives her a distinctive edge on the water.

Technically challenging from both a design and construction point of view, the curved glass sheets used for her iconic raised wheelhouse are among the largest produced in Europe. Forward on the main deck, a built-in settee is protected by a hydraulically driven canopy that creates a wind-sheltered outdoor space ideal for relaxing in privacy. More forward, in the bow a second seating area protected from the wind is the ideal place for admiring the views when underway.

Irisha boasts a chic understated interior featuring varying shades of light and dark grey (the owner’s favourite colour) with beige and blue accent colours. Rich materials are featured sparingly throughout, including stainless-steel finishes used to highlight architectural details. The sky lounge is equipped with a cinema screen and projector for film nights, and served by a wet bar for the ideal socialising hub.
