Heesen Yachts has welcomed YN 20655, now officially named Solemates. This remarkable 55-metre steel yacht, previously code-named Project Venus, exemplifies Heesen’s commitment to luxury and innovation in yacht design.

Rupert Connor from Luxury Yachts, representing the owners, emphasised that returning to Heesen was a natural choice for their experienced client. “Heesen’s exceptional quality standards and unwavering commitment to exceeding expectations ensured that Solemates would be another extraordinary build,” Connor stated.

“The construction process with this Dutch shipyard was, once again, a pleasure, as their project team enthusiastically embraced our requests.”

Solemates will now enter the commissioning phase in preparation for her maiden voyage to the North Sea, where she will undergo rigorous sea trials. This yacht is a testament to the owner’s clear vision of a personalised vessel tailored for family use.
