Solemates Delivered: Experienced Owner Chooses Heesen Again for Bespoke 55-metre steel superyacht

Heesen Yachts is delighted to announce the delivery of the 55-metre steel superyacht YN 20655, christened Solemates. Handed over on April 30, 2025, this event marks a significant milestone: the second Heesen yacht for this experienced client.

The owner, a seasoned yachtsman with considerable experience, opted for Heesen once again, demonstrating strong confidence in the shipyard’s engineering, build quality, and the strategic advantages of its speculative build programme. Selecting a yacht already under construction on a proven platform significantly reduced delivery time while allowing ample opportunities for personalisation.

Built on Heesen’s successful 55m Steel platform, featuring the Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) by Van Oossanen Naval Architects and exterior styling by Omega Architects, Solemates benefitted from a solid foundation. An experienced client understands the inherent reliability, comfort, and performance of an established design. This allowed the owner to focus the creative energy on tailoring the interior spaces and onboard amenities to perfectly align with their specific lifestyle and family-oriented approach to yachting.
