Heesen delivers Superyacht Masa

Heesen has delivered the latest of its 50-meter superyachts named Masa after successful North Sea trials.

The owner named her Masa, which means 'my diamond' during a private ceremony.

She is the eighth in the boatbuilder's 5000 Aluminium Class, which is now one of the shipyard's most popular ranges.

Onboard, there is capacity for 12 guests in six cabins with a master stateroom on the main deck forward and five lower deck suites. There are also three dining rooms, three lounges, a top deck open-air Jacuzzi and a bar for guests to enjoy.

The interiors have been designed by Cristiano Gatto and feature silver detail and light colors to create a tranquil atmosphere.

The interior also develops some of Masa's predecessors' most striking design elements, including silver leaf ceilings, curved pieces of furniture and brushed spruce.

The distinctive exterior lines of the Masa have been designed by Omega Architects' Frank Laupman and feature a pelican-beak bow with reverse sheer along with a sporty mast. The color scheme is in classic Awlgrip white.

The naval architecture was designed by Heesen's in-house team.

A spokesman for Heesen said: "Masa's beauty does not lie exclusively in her aesthetics - with her all-aluminium semi-displacement hull being designed, engineered and welded by our in-house team to the smallest tolerances.

"With lightweight aluminium construction, and considered naval architecture and precision, M/Y Masa exceeds the contractual speed of 23 knots thanks to two MTU 16V 4000 diesel engines and perfectly combines performance, space, comfort, and refined luxury."

M/Y Masa has a beam of 9 meters and is 499 gross tons with a crew of nine and exceeded the contractual speed of 23 knots during tests in moderate sea conditions.

A spokesman for Heesen said: "Masa is a superb addition to the Heesen jewel fleet – a rare and precious diamond, as her name suggests!"
