The best way to sail the seas is to make a home on the water — with some extra amenities.

In the world of luxury yachting, size may impress, but details make a statement. Enter Sparta, Heesen’s largest steel creation to date—a 219-foot motor yacht that’s as much a work of art as a feat of engineering. Born from the Project Avanti design concept, Sparta demonstrates Heesen’s commitment to excellence, offering a tailor-made experience that blends performance, style and innovation.

Sparta embodies Heesen’s ability to push the envelope, embracing the challenges of a full-custom yacht with the same enthusiasm a master chef reserves for a signature dish. With Winch Design at the helm of interior and exterior styling, this yacht is a masterpiece on the water.

Visually, she presents a stunning figure. The yacht’s sleek, low-profile silhouette is enhanced by a reverse bow and accented with a striking combination of metallic Venetian red and anthracite gray, all set against a classic Snow White backdrop. The elongated sweep of thermobonded tinted glass from bow to stern adds to her aesthetic appeal and underscores her sporty elegance.

The interior design takes you on a journey through the elements—earth, water and air—with each deck offering a distinct thematic experience. Imagine traversing these realms via a glass elevator or an intricately carved oak staircase, where staggered paneling and vertical lighting create a dynamic interplay of light and shadow.

Sparta can host 12 guests in ultimate comfort, with accommodations that include two full-beam owner’s suites, two VIP suites and two additional guest suites. Whether you’re stargazing from the private owner’s deck or enjoying a family movie night in the air-themed master cabin, every moment aboard is crafted for indulgence.

The yacht’s main deck is a social hub, featuring a full-beam main salon and an indoor dining area that flows seamlessly onto a sheltered aft deck terrace. The space is perfect for intimate gatherings, where the beauty of the ocean is always in view. The earth-themed saloon, with its palm leaf-upholstered chairs and stained oak coffee table topped with green marble, is as inviting as it is sophisticated.

When it’s time to unwind, Sparta offers a 700-square-foot spa complete with a steam room, sauna, gym and beauty area—all evoking the calming element of water. For more active pursuits, the yacht features a custom Winch-designed Tenderworks limo tender, which mirrors the yacht’s sleek lines and tucks neatly away in the forward garage.

The yacht’s technological prowess is just as impressive. With a full suite of audiovisual and IT solutions from Videoworks, everything from lighting to entertainment is at your fingertips, controlled via a centralized app.

Powered by twin MTU 12V 4000 M65R engines, the vessel cruises comfortably at 12 knots, with a maximum speed of 16 knots and a range of 4,500 nautical miles.

Sparta proves what’s possible when design and engineering harmonize perfectly. With her delivery in 2024, she’s already set a new standard for luxury on the water. This award-winning vessel isn’t just another superyacht; she’s a floating testament to the artistry and innovation that define Heesen.

In a world where only the best will do, Sparta is a beacon of luxury, craftsmanship and unparalleled style— the crown jewel of custom yachts.
