Book Ends is a fast cruiser with a thundering top speed of over 23 knots. True to the Heesen philosophy, her performance comes not from brute power but from smart engineering.
Heesen’s 164’ Aluminium Semi-displacement Series is the first fast yacht below 500 GT to comply with IMO Tier-III regulations. An optimised, low-drag, lightweight aluminium hull with a reduced transom depth brings efficiency gains of around 12 per cent.
She is sporty yet elegant, spacious yet perfectly sized to access shallow Bahamian creeks and the smallest Mediterranean ports, thanks to her reduced draft of just 7’. Book Ends is comfortable for both quick island hops and long passages. With a cruising speed of 11 knots, she boasts a transoceanic range of 3,100 nautical miles.
Twelve guests can be accommodated in five staterooms, with the master suite on the main deck forward and the spacious remaining suites found down on the lower deck. Book Ends also offers plenty of outdoor areas for her owners, family, and friends to enjoy life at sea. The beach club will bring them close to the on-water action, while the generous sun pad area on the main deck terrace is perfect for post-swim relaxation. Al-fresco dining can take place either on the bridge deck aft terrace or up on the spacious sundeck
