completed

Heesen Yachts has announced the official christening of the 55-metre yacht Pa’lante, previously known as Project Frida. The yacht was named at the Hotel New York in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. Built as part of the Heesen 55M Steel series, Pa’lante builds on the extensive experience gained from her sistership Agnetha (now Warda). Constructed with a steel hull and aluminium superstructure, construction on Pa’lante began in 2022, with her sale announced in March 2026. The yacht features exterior design by Omega Architects, interior design by Luca Dini Design and Architecture, and naval architecture by Van Oossanen Naval Architects. It can accommodate up to 12 guests across six staterooms and a crew of 13. Key amenities include a sundeck whirlpool, a fully equipped bar, multiple lounging areas, and a skydeck connecting to an aft terrace. Powered by twin MTU engines, she has a top speed of 15.5 knots and is equipped with zero-speed and underway stabilisers. The yacht met the highest Lloyd’s Register standards and is scheduled for her official debut at the Monaco Yacht Show in September 2026.
