ROCKET is a 49.8-metre motor yacht built by the Dutch shipyard Heesen, delivered in 2011 as part of the highly successful 5000 series and most recently refitted in 2026. Her exterior was designed by Omega Architects and her interiors by Star Design, resulting in a yacht that combines clean, contemporary lines with a warm and comfortable living environment. She has been maintained to the highest standards throughout her life and has received regular upgrades to keep her systems and presentation current.
Her split-level sun deck is one of ROCKET’s most distinctive features: a large jacuzzi forward is flanked by sun pads and surrounded by glass screens, while aft, under skylights, a genuine sky lounge with a walk-up bar, picture windows and large sliding glass doors creates a covered outdoor space that works equally well for lunches in the sun or dinners under the stars. It is a thoughtful, versatile arrangement that gives the yacht a genuinely different quality of outdoor living to most in her size class.
Accommodation sleeps 12 guests across six well-appointed cabins, and her proven track record on the Mediterranean charter market reflects the combination of an excellent crew, a highly regarded hull design and a consistent programme of investment since delivery. ROCKET is also available for sale alongside her charter listing, representing an opportunity for buyers wanting to step straight into a commercially active, well-prepared yacht.

The exterior deck spaces of Rocket are laid out for the full range of superyacht charter experiences. An expansive aft deck provides a natural gathering point for meals and aperitifs, while the upper deck and sun deck above deliver progressively more sweeping views across the water. The considered layout of outdoor spaces means guests always have access to shade or sun, social space or privacy, whatever the conditions or time of day. Whether anchored off an idyllic coastline or in a bustling marina, the outdoor decks of Rocket create a superyacht experience that extends naturally from the interior to the sea.
Rocket’s water sport and leisure inventory is curated to offer genuine variety across any charter itinerary. A selection of high-quality tenders enables seamless transport between yacht and shore, whether for a restaurant dinner, a market visit or a beach excursion. Beyond transport, jet skis, paddleboards, kayaks, snorkelling and diving equipment support time on and in the water, while towable toys and inflatable platforms make the yacht accessible to guests of all ages and inclinations. The crew’s expertise with the toy inventory ensures that every session is safe, enjoyable and as adventurous as guests choose to make it.
