What is on offer?

Currently in the final stages of completion at the Italian shipyard Admiral in Tuscany, the 55 metre all-aluminium hybrid superyacht Quinta Essentia is scheduled for delivery in May 2016. She has been developed by a very experienced yachtsman and features naval architecture from the renowned Vripack, whilst Michela Reverberi Studio undertook her sophisticated interior design. Her sleek modern exterior was styled by Dobroserdov Design from Monaco.

 

<img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/159063/image/large-bd4b17fc71d959b43d63a3c4b6bb8cc8.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/159063">

 

On board she accommodates up to 12 guests over six generous staterooms, including the expansive owner’s suite on the main deck, a VIP cabin complete with a 180 degree panoramic view on the upper deck, and four cabins on the lower deck. These cabins can also be converted into two larger cabins for longer charters or special guests.

Powered by twin MAN engines, she has a top speed of 16.5 knots, with an impressive range of over 6,500 nm at a speed of 9.5 knots.

Why do we think this is such a great deal?

Quinta Essentia is the first and only hybrid superyacht over 500 GT which makes her extremely efficient with low operational costs. Her generous volumes of 873 GT are decorated with great style using a wide range of sophisticated and unique materials, such as I Vassalletti wooden and marble floors, hand-painted silk wallpaper by Fromental and a selection of exclusive marbles and onyx.

She features famous scagliola and “Pietra Dura” (inlaid marbles and semi precious stones that form artistic images). This is a unique opportunity to purchase an exceptional new build construction with almost no waiting time.

She comes with a long list of attractive amenities on board, including a helipad, an aft swimming pool with waterfall, a gym on the sun deck, a full beam spa zone complete with sauna and steam room, and eight metre carbon fibre limo-tender as well as a Castoldi 18' rescue tender in the yacht colours. A technically advanced yacht with immaculate finish, Quinta Essentia boasts a price based on €43,000 per GT.

The 55 metre Heesen superyacht Quinta Essentia

Last Friday I had the pleasure to attend the launch superyacht Lady L at the Heesen Facility in Oss, The Netherlands. Previously known as Zentric, hull number 15944 was sold at the end of last year in co-operation Nakhimov Yachts. Lady L, like her sister-ships was designed by Omega Architects, who also designed her bright and contemporary interior. The exterior colour scheme of the yacht was created by Dobroserdov Design, who opted for a dark grey hull, a dark blue stripe at the full-beam section of the main deck and a white superstructure. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/137813/image/large-08275580e640a6a5034b041a631420af.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/137813"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/137814/image/large-ad96eaf502f3cce3b253d67b12259db1.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/137814"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/137815/image/large-e879a82a019e8fbb4e6ec6af68ee0fa4.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/137815"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/137816/image/large-3f666097800e34743dca005c8f3afcb9.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/137816"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/137817/image/large-d869b60b7cf492b81958b5019f2b01b5.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/137817">By Merijn de Waard

New images of Heesen’s latest superyacht Lady L

Heesen Yachts announced the sale of Project Zentric in collaboration with Nakhimov Yachts. YN 15944 is the eighth in the successful 44 metre all-aluminium class: The first vessel (YN 13644 MY Sedation) was launched back in 2007. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/137324/image/large-fe7b1a1261da7ee4c4e4da6d910d01f7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/137324">YN 15944 is the third contract signed in 2011 and in such an economic climate this demonstrates that there will always be a market for superb quality and technical excellence, both qualities that this Dutch superyacht builder excels in. And by acquiring a yacht already under construction, there is no extended lead-time. In fact Heesen currently has 12 vessels in commission (four on speculation) with a total length of 584 metres, with deliveries up to 2015. Project Zentric’s twin MTU 2.720kW engines combine with unmatched experience in weight reduction and the ultra-efficient Heesen hull to ensure that an increase in space never means a decrease in speed. Project Zentric reaches the remarkable speed of 25 knots and is the fastest 44 metre yacht of her style on the market. Building in aluminium to enormously demanding tolerances, the Heesen hull-form is unique – quite simply no other ship's shape so optimises the way a yacht moves through water. Meticulous attention to weight reduction results in increased levels of luxury. Using the experience gained from the previous 44 metre aluminium yachts, Heesen has designed Project Zentric to fully maximise the amount of deck space available. Guests will mostly enjoy life at sea on the 45 square metre sun deck. The main aft deck and upper aft deck are the perfect location for alfresco dining or just lounging in the shade, while the seating area on the fore deck is ideal for enjoying the breeze when at anchor or for privacy when docked stern-to in harbour. Frank Laupman from Omega designed the sleek exterior lines and the timelessly elegant interior where pale woods and precious fabrics emphasise light and space. The guest areas are elegant and clutter-free thanks to the sleek, classic deco design. The open-plan main saloon is split into three distinct areas: in addition to the main sofas and dining area, there is an intimate semicircular seating area adjacent to the huge, curved sliding glass doors that lead to the aft deck. The sky lounge has been designed to provide several different entertaining and relaxation spaces. Deep sofas line both sides of the room, while to aft a circular arrangement of stools and table creates a laid-back atmosphere. Ten guests are accommodated in five cabins. The full-beam master suite is situated on the main deck and includes a study and full-beam his and hers marble bathroom. Two double and two twin cabins, all with ensuite marble bathrooms, are located on the lower deck.Heesen Yachts +31 (0) 412 66 55 44 <a href="mailto:sales@heesenyachts.nl?subject=Project%20Zentric%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">sales@heesenyachts.nl</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.heesenyachts.nl/">www.heesenyachts.nl</a> Nakhimov Yachts +377 9798 5789 <a href="mailto:info@nakhimov.com?subject=Project%20Zentric%20on%20SuperYachtTimes.com">info@nakhimov.com</a> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.nakhimov.com/">www.nakhimov.com</a>

Superyacht Quinta Essentia for sale with Nakhimov

With a total of seven deliveries in twelve months, 2011 thus far has proven to be a very busy year for acclaimed Dutch shipyard Heesen Yachts. In fact, this being the highest number of the last ten years, the yard's order book currently stretches well into 2014, with an impressive eleven yachts currently being either in design or construction phase. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136339/image/large-055946d499b6e7de9c398a1bb37e8c69.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136339">Recently, a firm glimpse was shown as to what can be expected over the next couple of years, as brand new superyacht <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1549">Quinta Essentia</a> was launched this may. The vessel, which will be on display from 21 to 24 of September as part of the Monaco Yachts Show, at Quai d'Hirondelle, is a 55 metres semi-displacement yacht which combines extraordinary looks with impressive performance and remarkable fuel efficiency. Impressively, she is also the largest superyacht launched by Heesen Yachts so far. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136340/image/large-510c8ccaf80adfd0800f915463d94033.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136340">     <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136341/image/large-db15081d5b5dbd24901327c112e7c237.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136341">With a look that can be adequately described as fluent and organic, she has that certain quality that makes a yacht stand out, giving her a subtle blend of qualities, making her instantly recognizable yet having a refined and classy appearance. With exterior lines gracefully flowing, <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1549">Quinta Essentia</a> shows of a hint of curves in a tasteful manner, making one wonder what hides behind her intriguing exterior. The delightful colour scheme, which was developed by the owner in collaboration with Dobroserdov Design, consists of a custom made, classic dark red and a clean oyster white tint. The owner being fondly passionate about fine wines from Tuscany, it should come as no surprise that this signature red colour was actually inspired by one of these wines. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136342/image/large-d123961dcc2a30b3e619f01e64944517.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136342">Designed by Omega Architects, <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1549">Quinta Essentia</a> offers quite a few special features, one of which can be immediately seen upon entering the aft deck.

At request of the owner, spaciousness was key in designing the vessel's interiors. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136344/image/large-95cf5baee66e1b56670b0ff994358de2.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136344">The curves that she seductively shows on her outside are generously applied inside, giving the main saloon a pleasant softness without losing a sense of spaciousness. Firstly, what immediately catches the eye is the lightness of the room, where a soothing, light pallet has the upper hand, occasionally supported by dashes of colour. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136345/image/large-43dc979c07cebc9ac6b705d17068e34e.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136345">Secondly, a comfortable combination of soft and hard materials can be found, resulting in an interior look and feel that is both wonderfully plush and tender, yet perfectly balanced by the use of hard, more high-gloss materials for instance used in ceiling and doors. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136346/image/large-99ae013fdb24cdd96db6664e3d434317.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136346">The vessel’s luxurious interiors are a well thought-out mixture of futuristic minimalism and intimacy, assuring warm and cosy surroundings which are nicely balanced and discreetly reflect a unique personal style. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136347/image/large-6b450b3097befcae9f86d28cc2744223.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136347">The yacht’s name, meaning “the fifth element”, references to the mysterious fifth element that mixes and transcends all the basic classical elements of earth, fire, air and water, a somewhat symbolic representation of how the overall design of this superyacht came into being. An overall design by Ken Freivokh, which was refined by Italian designer Michela Reverberi at the personal directions of the owner’s wishes, all mixed together to create a unique final result. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136348/image/large-bfe89e3e36905d7d5983dba3e9d83186.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136348"><img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136349/image/large-8d433695790db1058959cbfed97e3aed.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136349">     <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136350/image/large-5f757f36c1fd0640123903e4823b98af.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136350">The four basic elements are represented in the designs of the vessel’s guest cabins, while the mysterious fifth is symbolically integrated into the owner’s suite, which is of a noticeably considerable size, and even features a private balcony, a first for Heesen. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136351/image/large-9966512fcc9a3b171348b021021b11dd.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136351">     <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136352/image/large-52687ce30b6d45d9f0cd8455f02b756b.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136352">Aside from the owner’s quarters, <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1549">Quinta Essentia</a> boasts two large guest cabins which are convertible into one big VIP cabin, one double cabin, one twin cabin and an additional VIP cabin on the vessel’s main deck. <img alt="" src="https://syt-store-production.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/photo/136353/image/large-c6d06f4dac83fa510af792d07c0dbe84.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/136353">The upper deck salon is another extraordinary feature of <a href="#managed-by-application" data-legacy="true" data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/1549">Quinta Essentia</a>.
