Heesen is delighted to announce the delivery of YN 19550 MY ELA, formerly known as Project Altea. This magnificent yacht set sail from the Netherlands in July with her crew, and after meeting her owners in Gibraltar, will spend the summer cruising in the Mediterranean. Primarily intended for family use, ELA will also join the charter fleet of Zarpo Yachts to be available for selected clients.
At 50 metres overall with a lightweight, aluminium, fast-displacement hull, she is the second in Heesen’s sub-500GT Nova Plus class, a design that emphasizes performance and efficiency, powered by twin MTU 2000-series M72 V12s. Her remarkable maximum speed of just under 20 knots, frugal fuel consumption, and a draft of just 2.15 metres, makes her the most efficient yacht of her type built in the Netherlands.
A distinguished yacht with a striking profile characterized by a vertical bow and bold spray rails, along with her Dutch pedigree as a guarantee of premium quality, ELA was also available with a remarkably short delivery time when she caught the attention of her owners. With just three months between purchase and delivery they worked with interior designer Cristiano Gatto and the Heesen team to personalize the yacht to suit their family requirements.
