Luxury Cruising Yachts: Heesen - Quinta Essentia

The Heesen super yacht Quinta Essentia is of all-aluminium construction. Strikingly handsome in creamy-white paint and contrasting regal red. A very dramatic effect.

With its striking design, the owner and guests can see the sea from just about anywhere inside.

Designed to be semi-displacement, this powerful yacht is capable of 24 knots with a cruising speed of 18.

The owner’s choice of ship’s name was inspired by the gods of Greek mythology and their guardianship of the quinta essentia, the magical fifth element, and was intended to set the theme for the décor. In this way, the four base elements – earth, air, fire and water – would be used to express the interior, leaving the yacht as the mystical unknown element, the quinta essentia.

Even when launched, it was much remarked that the interior evoked the sensation of being aboard a 72 metre, substantiated by remarkably high ceilings and relocation of the galley one deck down. This latter decision expands the owner’s accommodation into a veritable apartment and the feeling is continued in the guest accommodation, where everything is full of natural light. General layout is for six en suites which consists of the owner’s apartment, a VIP, a twin bed cabin and three doubles, two of which will convert into an additional full-beam VIP if required.

Continuing the theme and sensation of light and space is the starboard main deck side-entrance lobby, where a spectacular spiral glass staircase, whose Bernard Pictet glasswork walls resemble frozen streams of water, surrounds a cylindrical glass lift, both of which serve three decks.

Public spaces are inviting with seating areas and big windows making maximum use of the alconies. Formal dining is on the upper deck. Forward is a semi-circle of sofas positioned so as to take advantage of the panoramic views or the entertainments centre.

Walls are of base white as are ceilings, while carpeting throughout is hand-woven white silk, within which Reverberi has introduced diminishing wave-like brush-strokes in colours indicative of the elements, while her intuitive interpretation of the guest suites is masterful. Often where other interiors offer ‘nice but untouchable’, Reverberi has achieved the opposite and made hers pleasingly livable.

Outside deck areas are magnificent. They have been planned for maximum enjoyment and comfort and with feeling of spaciousness. Quinta Essentia has a spa pool aft on her main deck. A wide curtain of water falls from the deck above. This remarkable feature is dense enough to project movies on, ensures privacy and helps keep the area cool.

Quinta Essentia navigates with state-of-the-art electronics. Underwater cameras permit viewing of the world below on any monitor on board. Another interesting feature is the side-loading float-on-float-off system for the 7.5 metre Limo tender, which has its own docking pool.

She is available for selective charter on both sides of the Atlantic.
