This design is both visually striking and functionally superior, offering unparalleled seaworthiness for smooth navigation through waves.Inside, Italian designer Cristiano Gatto has created an interior that maximises natural light and offers ocean views. The layout includes six staterooms, including a master suite on the main deck, a full-beam VIP cabin, and four additional staterooms on the lower deck. Open bulwarks enhance the sense of space and connection to the sea, making the yacht ideal for both private and charter use.Project Orion epitomises Heesen’s commitment to innovation, seamlessly blending technology with design to create a yacht unlike any other on the market.
