Founded in 1978, Heesen has become one of the leading yacht builders, synonymous with excellent build quality, elegance and impressive design features. The latest release from Heesen's Oss facility is the YN 16250, a 50m all-aluminium constructed semi-displacement super yacht, which has been christened Crazy Me.

Her new owner is a complete visionary, pushing the design boundaries and creativity of the Heesen team to create one of the most advanced super yachts yet. Gary Grant was responsable for the striking exterior lines, achieving his signature swoosh from bow to stern. Another impressive design feature sees the use of formed glass, which provides stunning aesthetics as well as fantastic sound insulation throughout the yacht.

Italian designer Christiano Gatto was appointed for the interior design, creating a linear and contemporary design, which seeks to enhance the space on board. One of our favourite design features is the glass bottomed pool, enhancing light to the aft deck below. In terms of performance, the maximum speed is 21 knots at half load. She will be able to accommodate up to 12 guests in 6 staterooms, including one owner's suite, a VIP Cabin and four double cabins. She is due to be delivered in June 2013.

Three New Luxury Catamarans for Charter in the BVI – ALETHEIA, FLOW and ALEGRIA

As the summer draws closer and closer with every day that passes, so Christmas nears too. Similar to every year, one of the most popular destinations worldwide for Christmas and New Year charters is the British Virgin Islands. The yacht of choice out of Tortola and the British Virgin Islands is a crewed catamaran, and this year we have three beautiful new Fountaine Pajots to offer.

The first of the three new stunning crewed catamarans is ALETHEIA, a Fountaine Pajot 70. She accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 gorgeous cabins. On board, there is ample space for charter guests to enjoy, and on deck and on the flybridge, yet more space can be enjoyed. She has a fabulous crew of 3, including Captain Donald, who is a PADI Diving Instructor. This means that charter guests of ALETHEIA will be given the opportunity, should they want, to go diving straight off the yacht.

More information about ALETHEIA can be found here.

ALETHEIA has two smaller sister boats, 'twins' if you like, as they are of the same size. The first of the two is FLOW, that is also new to the charter market, and available in the British Virgin Islands. FLOW is a 59 foot crewed catamaran, that also accommodates for up to 10 guests in 5 cabins. She too has brilliant outdoor space, that offers guests a chance to dine al fresco every day. As with her two sister catamarans, FLOW has on board a small plethora of water toys, that can always be made use of.

Please click here for more information about FLOW.

The third of these brand new Fountaine Pajots is ALEGRIA, also 59 foot catamaran, with 2 crew members. She is identical to FLOW, both on the exterior and interior, meaning both of them are fantastic options for your charter.

If you're considering a charter out of Tortola, but would like to have a look at a full itinerary, why not consider looking at our full 7 day itinerary, that can be found here.
