SPARTA DESIGN SPECIAL WITH WINCH DESIGN
19 JULY 2021
When the owner of Project Sparta first saw Heesen’s yacht concept Avanti introduced at the 2018 Monaco Yacht Show, her sleek lines immediately impressed: this was the yacht he wanted to build for his family. Winch Design and Heesen are now turning that dream into reality. At 67 metres and with an internal volume of approximately 1,200 Gross Tons, Project Sparta is the largest steel-hulled displacement motor yacht built by Heesen to date. The full-beam salon on the main deck – an unusual feature on a vessel of this size – makes Project Sparta a true head turner. Jim Dixon, Director of Yachts and James Russell, Associate, Yacht Exteriors at Winch Design share their thoughts and inside stories on this intriguing project.

MARKET SPECIAL WITH FRASER YACHTS
‘Booming’ is the word Andrew Bond, Sales Broker at Fraser Yachts, uses to describe the current state of the superyacht market. Although the Covid pandemic is far from over, Andrew sees a strong increase in the popularity of yachting. At the same time, the industry is still struggling with travel restrictions and limited client visits to yachts and shipyards: does that pose a threat to sales and charters? And what about the long-term outlook for the market? How can the industry respond to shifts in demographic and the demand for sustainable yachting? In this YachtTalk episode we take a closer look, together with Andrew and Mark Cavendish, Executive Commercial Officer of Heesen, at the trends and developments.
