Heesen builds motor yachts between 30 to 55 metres at its yard in Oss, the Netherlands. The builder is recognised for all-aluminium hulls with fast semi-displacement forms, strong seakeeping and notable fuel efficiency. Each vessel reaches charter service after rigorous build and commissioning, and Heesen yachts hold a strong reputation across the international charter fleet.
There are currently 6 Heesen yachts available for charter in the British and US Virgin Islands. These cover several size classes and typically accommodate eight to twelve guests in four to six cabins. A professional crew of six to nine handles provisioning, navigation and watersports, which usually include jet skis, paddleboards, a tender and complete snorkelling equipment.
Weekly charter rates for Heesen yachts in Virgin Islands run from around 90,000 euros to 280,000 euros for larger and more recent examples. The advance provisioning allowance, approximately 30 to 35 percent of the base rate, covers fuel, food, beverages and marina fees. December to April is peak season; Christmas and New Year weeks fill many months in advance.
Virgin Islands provides an ideal setting for a Heesen charter. Itineraries typically start from Tortola or St Thomas and take in The Baths, Norman Island, Cooper Island, Jost Van Dyke, Anegada reef and the Bitter End Yacht Club, mixing snorkelling stops with sheltered evening anchorages and lively beachside restaurants. A charter broker will identify the right vessel and itinerary for your group and confirm availability for your dates.
