In episode three of YachtTalk Season 4, Heesen continues its discussion with renowned Italian superyacht designer, Cristiano Gatto, who is currently working on several projects for the Dutch shipyard, including Project Orion. Like her pioneering sistership Home, Orion will feature Heesen’s innovative hybrid propulsion system offering silent cruising, flexible power management and maximum energy efficiency. The yacht also features a lavish interior, and Heesen sat down with Gatto to learn more.

Lessons in layout

Project Orion is the fifth hull in Heesen’s advanced and ultra-efficient 50-metre FDHF aluminium series. This prior experience is a huge advantage, says Gatto, who has penned the interiors for all the yachts in the series to date.
