What Is a Heesen Yachts Ela?
Cutting-edge naval architecture and smart engineering are trademarks of all Heesen yachts, but even more so for Ela.
At 50 metres in length and below 500GT with a shallow draft, this yacht arguably possesses the most efficient hull form in her class. The FDHF hull design devised by Dutch hydrodynamicists Van Oossanen has been engineered by Heesen’s in-house naval architects to deliver speed, performance, a high degree of comfort in all sea conditions and unparalleled fuel efficiency throughout the full spectrum of speeds. Built in lightweight aluminium to the highest tolerances by Heesen’s talented welding team, ELA displaces approximately 320 tons.
