Heesen Yachts Unveils 2025's First Delivery: Serena, a 55m Steel Marvel
Heesen Yachts is pleased to announce the delivery of YN 20555, the 55-meter steel yacht named Serena, marking the first delivery of 2025. Sold and project-managed by Arcon Yachts Monaco, Serena exemplifies the seamless collaboration between the two companies, resulting in a yacht that blends precision engineering with bespoke design.
- Ultra-efficient FDHF steel hull for long-range cruising
- Seamless blend of Dutch engineering and Italian design
- Versatile spaces for luxury and comfort
- Exceptional handling and stability at sea
Engineering Excellence
Serena is equipped with a steel ultra-efficient, fast displacement hull form (FDHF), providing a transatlantic range of 4,500 nautical miles at 13 knots and a top speed of 15.5 knots thanks to two MTU 8V 4000 M63 (IMO Tier III). Designed by Omega Architects, the exterior seamlessly complements Luca Dini’s interior vision, providing accommodation for 12 guests across five staterooms.
Luxury Interior & Design
The yacht's interior spaces include a main saloon divided into three areas, with a fully equipped bar that ensures a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. The Sky Lounge serves as the hub for socializing, featuring a customized games table and comfortable seating for entertainment. The beach club, illuminated by natural light through glass portholes, is styled as a waterside retreat.
Owner & Guest Accommodations
Serena's owner’s quarters on the main deck include a lounge, office space, and a luxurious full-beam cabin with a private veranda. The lower deck features four guest staterooms with unique marble details in their en-suite bathrooms. Serena also boasts a gym on the bridge deck, which can be easily retrofitted into an additional cabin if required.
Exceptional Handling & Stability
Bob van Zundert, shipyard captain, praised Serena’s handling: “Looking at the numbers, she is a big 55m with 760 GT of internal volume. But when handling, she is responsive and listens to commands very well. She has the comfort and stability of a steel vessel but the maneuverability of her aluminum sisters.”
Setting the Stage for 2025
Serena is the first of an exciting lineup of yachts to be delivered in 2025, setting the stage for a remarkable year ahead in luxury yachting.
