Heesen delivers the 50-metre smart-custom with a hybrid propulsion named Cinderella Noel IV. press image
Heesen delivered 50-metre hybrid-propulsion yacht Cinderella Noel IV in April 2024 after North Sea trials, completing the former Project Oslo24.
Heesen announced on 22 April 2024 that it had delivered YN 20150, the 50-metre hybrid motor yacht Cinderella Noel IV, following trials in the North Sea. Earlier developed as Project Oslo24, the vessel had been christened by its owners in a shipyard ceremony in December 2023.
The yacht combines the established 50-metre steel engineering platform with a hybrid propulsion system intended to support different operating modes. The owners placed particular importance on long passages, low-noise cruising and access to Scandinavian waters, including fjords and archipelagos.
Clifford Denn developed the exterior lines and Luca Dini Design & Architecture designed the interior. Reported owner-specific features include an additional flybridge steering position, a glass-bottomed pool, large cockpit screens and an extensive wellness area.
Heesen attributed an unusually close level of design involvement to the owners, working with project managers Zucker & Partner throughout the programme. The article records the April 2024 delivery and avoids treating earlier projected delivery windows as present-day vessel status.
