Heesen delivers Moskito, YN19255, formerly project Pollux

Heesen is delighted to announce the delivery of Moskito, YN 19255, previously known as Project Pollux. At 55 metres with a Gross Tonnage of 760 GT, she is the second yacht delivered by Heesen in 2021.

With muscular exterior lines by Omega Architects, characterised by ‘shark-tooth’ superstructure overhangs and vertical windows, Heesen’s 55-metre class epitomises the idea of elegance on the water. The design features the latest iteration of van Oossanen’s ultra-efficient Fast Displacement Hull Form. Powered by IMO III-compliant MTU 8V 4000 M63s, it offers frugal fuel consumption of just 150 litres per hour at 11 knots, for truly economical passagemaking.

Her interior design, by London-based studio Bannenberg & Rowell, is both luxurious and laid-back: in the words of Dickie Bannenberg, “It works equally well whether you’re in shorts and a T-shirt or dressed for dinner”. The décor combines bold solutions with casual appeal, as seen for example in the main saloon’s dark eucalyptus and pale sycamore joinery, and chevron parquet flooring. Other features to note include softly radiused panelling and an eye-catching bar installation.
