Heesen responds to increased Middle Eastern demand for superyachts
Dutch yard Heesen Yachts has appointed the luxury yacht consultancy firm BehneMar as their official agent in the Middle East.

The Heesen Board of Directors comments: “We are very enthusiastic about this new partnership in the Middle East and very much looking forward to working with the BehneMar team on exciting new projects. Beirut Boat 2018 is our first joint commercial effort in the region and our first step together on the path of a fruitful collaboration.”
