Heesen Yachts Launches 50-Meter Superyacht “Ice Angel”

Dutch luxury superyacht builder Heesen is continuing on a successful roll in 2011 with another successful launch. The new launch is another member of the new 50-meter family of yachts. She will soon join her sister ship, “Satori” which was delivered earlier this year. The final name of the new 50-meter luxury yacht is “Ice Angel”.

Ice Angel is hull 15850 built by Heesen in all aluminum to a semi-displacement platform. The design has been by Omega Architects with Naval Architecture by Heesen themselves. The interior work has been a collaboration between Omega and Domus Nova. The twin screw motor yacht has a beam of 9.00-meters and a draft of 2.50-meters. On the technical side, Ice Angel is likely to have a pair of MTU 16V 4000 M90 engines that possess the capability to push her to a 23 knot top speed. She can carry just under 70,000 LT of fuel with an economical range over 3,000 nautical miles. Ice Angel has been seen on the new waterway in the Netherlands recently. She differs from Satori by her paint scheme, sporting black and white livery. She should be delivered this Summer.
