Heesen Yachts recently announced the successful launch of Project Oslo24, now named M/Y CINDARELLA NOEL IV. The 164’ (50m) steel motor yacht was built on the proven engineering platform of past Heesen yachts, combining customization for clients with efficient delivery times.
M/Y CINDARELLA NOEL IV Details
Building on Heesen’s 50m steel series with lines by Clifford Denn, the owners were able to incorporate their own specific design details based on their own yachting experience and time on the water. Notable additions include increased attention to yacht crew areas including their own separate outdoor deck area, heated floors, winter tents and mosquito nets.
Uniquely, the owner is a licensed skipper who requested a second steering position on the flybridge with stairs going from the flybridge to the wheelhouse. CINDARELLA NOEL IV includes a hybrid propulsion system, (a first for Heesen), a foldable mast making bridge passages a breeze, with channel navigation lights for canal passages – making this a proven yacht for exploring any and every region the owner’s wish.
Throughout the build, owner representatives, ZUCKER & PARTNER were on hand to navigate the process with the owners.
“We had a terrific experience with the clients and the shipyard. Heesen’s ‘Smart Custom’ solution represented the perfect starting point for an experienced yachtsman to concentrate on the important details for him and his family. [CINDERELLA NOEL IV] is a testament to Heesen’s intelligent approach, allowing this family to create their dream machine with the certainty of a result which would have taken considerably more time and cost to build individually without being sufficiently tested.”

The yacht interiors were completed by Luca Dini Design and Architecture with plenty of feedback from the owners and Heesen’s engineering team to allow comfortable extended stays onboard.
“This project has been a unique experience, driven by the owner’s passion and the shipyard’s expertise, with every detail analyzed and agreed with the clients. This ‘Smart Custom’ build confirmed Heesen’s ability to achieve excellent results and nurture a close relationship with clients to fulfil their special requests.”

Interior décor touches have been finished in “Scandinavian chic” with neutral colors, soft furnishings and wood accents. Blues and greens add a pop of color to reflect the natural world they plan to cruise across.
“CINDARELLA NOEL IV is imbued in every detail with the owners’ passion and experience. The energy they have put into creating a yacht that perfectly suits their lifestyle is impressive. They carefully considered every choice and worked closely with our team of experts to find the most intelligent solutions.”
Mark Cavendish, CCO, Heesen
