67-meter Heesen yacht SPARTA hits the water

By Nina Done 16 June 2023

Previously known as YN 20067, the 67m (217ft) superyacht SPARTA hit the water last week from Heesen’s facilities in the Netherlands, marking the Dutch yard’s largest steel motor yacht to date.

Showcasing “athletic” lines with a unique low profile and reverse stern, courtesy of London-based studio Winch Design, the 1,200 GT motor yacht is based on Heesen's Project Avanti concept first showcased at the Monaco Yacht Show 2018, which captured the owners' imagination.

Her hull is particularly striking, sporting an ice-white livery with metallic Venetian red and anthracite gray boot stripes, as well as a bold sweep of tinted glass from bow to stern. On board, she’s equally impressive, offering a 6.5-meter infinity pool, open-air beach terrace and a 65 sqm Japanese-inspired wellness area, featuring an elliptical whirlpool, steam room, sauna, gym and beauty area.

Harnessing the finest materials and finishes, her decks have been individually themed around different elements; water, earth and air, with a stunning oak staircase in a series of staggered panels connecting each level.

She also comes equipped with a matching Tenderworks custom limo tender in the exact image of her mothership.

She represents Heesen’s largest superyacht build so far, taking over 65-meter charter yacht ILLUSION. SPARTA will now undergo the final commissioning phases in the harbor, before heading to the North Sea for intensive sea trials.

It is not yet known whether M/Y SPARTA will become available for luxury yacht charters. If you'd like to charter a yacht of a similar caliber, you can view and compare all Heesen superyachts for charter.
