Heesen Launches 154’ “Sirocco”
April 25, 2006 – Oss, The Netherlands –
On April 18th, Heesen Yachts launched yacht number 12947, "Sirocco". Sirocco is named after the south wind that blows hot, dry air from the Sahara to the north. It’s not just the name but the whole interior of this 47-meter, semi-displacement, custom-built yacht that gives Sirocco a distinctly African ambience. Wooden floors, the use of natural stone, leather and makassar wood, combined with a sophisticated use of earth tones, and very unusual, exclusive tiles give this yacht a look all its own.
