w, makes a Heesen so distinctive? Custom built in Holland, it is not just a matter of style but more importantly, the contemporary application of engineering: the architecture of performance. Our concept has evolved over 30 years and the experience we have accrued is unlike that of any other yacht builder in the world. Building in aluminium to enormously demanding tolerances, the Heesen hull-form is unique - quite simply no other ship shape so optimises the way our yachts move through water. Meticulous attention to weight reduction results in increased levels of luxury. A Heesen is a Heesen...

urelia is a Heesen 37 metre sportster – our tenth unique yacht of this size. Her extrovert appearance was inspired by the Owner’s vision for something distinctly different – a homage to sports car heritage. Indeed Aurelia was named after the very first Gran Turismo – the Lancia Aurelia GT. The world’s finest mid size sports yacht gives each owner and their designers the opportunity to create without compromise. From the outset, Aurelia was destined to be highly distinctive and for more reasons than just her racy c

Aurelia powers along at 30 knots thanks to a hull honed for efficiency and meticulous attention to weight reduction. Acknowledged as world leaders in the construction of aluminium yachts, a Heesen requires less power to achieve a given speed – and less power means less fuel.

Gulf Oil Racing colours were adapted by Dobroserdov Design and applied to the yacht and even the 14ft Castoldi tender stored in the large tender garage and launched using the Heesen track system that is both safer and requires less space than a traditional crane mechanism. The transom door folds down to create a large swimming platform.

□ur tenth, 37 metre produced yet another new sun deck layout. At 87 square metres and extending to nearly 50 per cent of the overall length, the sun deck is equipped for every activity. The two Seakeeper gyro stabilizers virtually eliminate rolling at anchor without affecting speed or handling.

Aurelia has three options for din The sun deck is protected from c: breezes thanks to tinted glass pa: set within the superstructure.

On the main deck, twin tables are often set for casual dining or cocktails and canapés. The indoor dining saloon opens out onto the large terrace, ideal for entertaining.

w W W ith interiors by Bannenberg & Rowell, Aurelia’s ‘GT’ car concept required a considerable degree of detail in every aspect of the design. From the Linley Aston Martin chairs to the automobile grille bookcase insets, every classic feature exudes craftsmanship. Working with long-term partners such as Sinnex and the Heesen owned Oortgiese ensured that this complex concept was built to immaculate standards that have consistently won awards. Details make the difference. Heesen engineers were able to safely include a bio-ethanol open fireplace. Knurled stainless steel cabinet handles were...

Practically every surface was assigned a subtle pattern. In the main saloon, the diamond leather ceiling (inspired by Bentley sports car seats), the walnut herringbone floors and the bulkhead panelling, all posed installation challenges. Patterns need to start and end precisely in corners, horizontally lined fabrics must stretch with no distortion over many metres of panelling.

he Heesen 37 metre concept gives owners considerable scope to decide on the internal layout. Extending to more than 55 square metres, Aurelia’s main saloon includes a dining area and a conservatory with 180 degree views. The magnificent hand crafted two metre American walnut dining table sits under an inset ceiling with a deco centre-light feature. Sophisticated entertainment and control systems have been concealed throughout the yacht. A Kaleidescape film and music library is controlled by customised interfaces.

orward on the main deck, the full-beam master is an exceptionally impressive suite. Used throughout the cabins, a dramatic ‘tyre tread’ patterned carpet has been precisely laid to align with doorframes. Inspired by Jaguar sports car seats, the leather headboard was rib stitched, glazed and polished to gain a deep lustre.. With heated floors and mirrors, the master bathroom is a combination of natural stone and white Statuario marble. On a sports yacht where performance is a high priority, Heesen expertise enables the use of 4 mm veneers to reduce weight

MASTER SUITE

uest cabin design pays homage to three of the greatest names in automotive styling: Bertone’s orange Lamborghini twin cabin, Pininfarina’s Ferrari red double cabin and Zagato’s Aston Martin green double cabin. Spinneybeck leather headboards, teak and walnut details all form part of very high specification guest accommodation where additional portholes were built into the ensuite bathrooms. Only Heesen custom construction gives owners the freedom to fine-tune the design to achieve exactly what they require. Aurelia is yet another example of the performance of

eesen believes that both quality and quantity of space directly affect the performance and wellbeing of the crew. Apart from three guest cabins, the customised lower deck layout has enough space for a comfortable captain’s cabin. With totally separated crew and guest areas, the overall result is a larger laundry room and a main deck galley that is nearly twice the size of most comparable yachts.
