Heesen Yachts marks a significant milestone with the keel laying of Project Grace, a 50-meter Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) steel yacht, representing the inaugural model in their new 50-meter series unveiled at last year's Monaco Yacht Show.The keel laying ceremony was attended by a Lloyd’s Register surveyor, signifying the official launch of this innovative vessel.
