Nomen est omen – what’s in a name? German philosopher Walter Benjamin defined the ‘aura’ of a work of art as its unique presence in time and space. Heesen’s Aura will certainly have a unique presence on the water ̶ and if time is a concern, she is available for delivery in October 2021.
A true bluewater motor yacht ideal for extended cruising, Aura has a steel displacement hull designed by Heesen’s in-house naval architects and engineers, its drag-cheating bulbous bow allowing her to glide through the water with ease. Two MTU 8V4000 M63 engines give her a top speed of 15 knots, and a range of 3,800 nautical miles at her cruising speed of 13 knots.
