Ultra G has a secret lifesaving superpower

ultra g yacht owner

Ultra G is a yacht that breaks a lot of new ground, even by the standards of Heesen yachts. Toting 22,000hp and a 37-knot top speed, Heesen’s most recent launch is also its most powerful yacht. And she is the first we’ve ever built with the innovative U Safe rescue system concealed aboard.

U Safe is a totally unique rescue buoy which is self-powered. Unlike traditional life rings, which the casualty must swim towards or reach for in potentially difficult conditions, U Safe can be actively steered by remote control. A member of the crew can therefore direct the buoy quickly and safely to the person who requires help.

ultra g yacht owner

The owner’s representative explains why he wanted the system on Ultra G . “While Heesen owners pride themselves on the pedigree of their fast aluminium semi-displacement yachts, that same speed could have potentially dire consequences in the (thankfully unlikely) event of a Man Overboard (MOB) situation. Speed increases the separation distance between the person going into the water, and the bridge finally getting the information and reacting.

“U Safe brings an added reactionary capability to reach the person overboard, driving the remote control ‘lifebuoy’ directly to them, so I was happy to bear the extra cost of adding it to the MOB system. In rough conditions or rocky areas, it is particularly valuable, preventing both the rescuer and the vessel from entering the danger zone. The remote control will operate up to 800m away.”

In a first for the superyacht industry, U Safe worked hand-in-glove with Heesen engineers to develop an invisible launch system. As a piece of lifesaving equipment, the buoy is naturally bright orange, so it was desirable to keep it out of sight in order to maximise the impact of Ultra G ’s striking high-contrast paint scheme. Developed by Frank Laupman of Omega Architects , the desert tan hull with black and red stripes is a signature for this muscular yacht.

“The U Safe is mounted behind a hatch on the starboard side, in front of the steering station on the wheelhouse deck,” says Bob van Zundert, Heesen’s shipyard captain. “From the outside it is not visible – you can only see the outlines of the hatch. Of course, we wanted the yacht to look as clean as possible on the outside, and that means that we did not want any lines or edges on the exterior.”

U Safe’s technical team were handed a set of specifications, which included the dimensions available and the mechanism for opening the bulwark hatch. “Also, the angles of opening and the automatic release needed some attention before installing,” says van Zundert. Armed with this information, U Safe were able to design a special version of their standard induction-charging cradle which doubled as a launching device that deployed as soon as the hatch had fully opened.

“It’s a very smart mechanism that only uses gravity, so it’s bullet-proof!” says U Safe chief technology officer José Mogas. “We considered this many times over, but if we had put some kind of actuator on the launcher, we were concerned that it could create problems in the future. We incorporated a special damping system, so the launch is not a sudden movement that puts the buoy or the boat at risk.”

In this way, the buoy is always ready for launch. Smart charging algorithms have been built in to ensure that the lithium-ion battery in the buoy and the remote control are always in prime condition. Once the batteries are fully charged, the electronics switch into stand-by mode, which they can maintain for over a year. This also minimises the energy draw on Ultra G ’s systems.

Highly manoeuvrable whichever way up it lands, and with a top speed of 15kmh, it’s hard to imagine that regular safety drills with the U Safe won’t bring a degree of excitement. In fact, the twin water jets on this 14kg vehicle are so powerful they can transport two people. “If you see that the casualty needs medical or other help, then U Safe can take you there and bring both people back,” says Mogas.

Let’s hope that Ultra G never needs to call on this high-tech rescue equipment. But at least she is ready to react if someone does fall overboard. She can also provide an effective first response if someone nearby gets into difficulties in the water.

For starters, Ultra G was forged from lightweight aluminum and features a fast-displacement hull that is said to deliver a much smoother, flatter ride than conventional semi-displacement designs. On top of that, the yacht is equipped with four MTU 20V 4000 engines that collectively produce a bonkers 22,000 hp and drive four Kongsberg S90 waterjets. She can reportedly reach a blistering 37 knots at full tilt.

Heesen Ultra G Superyacht

The outer engines power steerable jets, while the center engines operate fixed booster units at the highest speeds. According to the yard, the waterjets lower the yacht’s draft to less than 10 feet and reduce vibration by 40 percent compared with traditional shafts and propellers. The vessel is also fitted with three gyro-stabilizers that will keep her nice and comfy at low speeds.

Speaking of comfort, the yacht is designed to keep anglers in the lap of luxury during fishing adventures. The yacht can sleep a total of 10 guests, with 13 crew on hand to cater to demands. Located on the bridge deck, the secluded owner’s suite sports a large walk-in wardrobe, an en suite with a separate shower and tub, plus a private outdoor terrace with a Jacuzzi.

Naturally, you’ll find spots a ton of spots for entertaining and some very cool toys. The main salon is decked out with a custom, temperature-controlled wine fridge, while the media room is home to Samsung’s giant 317-inch “The Wall” TV and an elegant games table.

The superyacht is now undergoing final testing before she leaves for sea trials in the North Sea.

MORE DETAILS OF HEESEN'S 60M SUPERYACHT ULTRA G REVEALED BY DESIGNER

Further details of Heesen's 60-metre full-custom superyacht Ultra G have been revealed by her interior designer.

The yacht was delivered to a new owner in March following her sale, both of which were "coordinated with the Dutch authorities", according to Heesen. She has now undertaken her maiden voyage to Guernsey. 

Ultra G is one of Heesen's most powerful projects to date with a propulsion package totalling 22,000 horsepower, including four water jets, resulting in a top speed of 37 knots in light load conditions.

Described by the yard as a “sport fisherman in yacht disguise”, the custom design draws inspiration from two previous sportfishing models built by Heesen in the nineties and features a fighting chair and storage for 40 rods.

Exterior design is the work of Frank Laupman's Omega Architects, and the studio was specifically chosen to create the yacht's unique lines, while the interior is the work of British studio Harrison Eidsgaard.

The 918GT interior includes accommodation for ten guests in four cabins on the lower deck. Meanwhile, the bridge deck has been reserved for the owner’s accommodation, which comprises a large aft-facing cabin that opens onto a private terrace equipped with a Jacuzzi and relaxation area. At the request of the owner, the yacht has dog-friendly features throughout – including a dedicated "dog-relief" area on the owner's private terrace.

Entertaining is a core part of Ultra G's design, with a custom wine fridge in the main saloon and a large media room with the latest audio-visual equipment. There is a games table on the main deck forward and a sundeck with an infinity pool facing aft.  

Replacing a traditional beach club is a fishing platform and a "Fisherman's Lounge" which complements the technical setup – equipped with comfortable sofas and live feeds from underwater cameras. There is also a wellness area featuring a spa with a beauty salon, sauna, steam room and snow room.

The waterjet propulsion drives the yacht's draft to less than three metres and helps to reduce vibrations. Meanwhile, the lightweight aluminium Fast Displacement Hull Form, complete with course fins, gyro stabilisers and interceptor trim plates, promises a smoother onboard experience. The engines are also compliant with IMO Tier III regulations.

Ultra G is expected to be accompanied by a custom tender built by Vanquish to a design by Guido de Groot that "mirrors the mothership down to the last brushstroke”. When she was originally commissioned, she was also fitted with dog-friendly features including a "relief area". 

The statement from Heesen continued: "Everyone at Heesen is delighted to see another motor yacht from their full custom range sailing away and wishes her owners and crew fair winds and following seas".

This follows news earlier this month that the yard's 56.7-metre Project Akira has entered outfitting ahead of her launch.

Heesen Yachts’ Project SkyFall Superyacht Named MY Ultra G

Luxurious Magazine

Simon Wittenberg takes a closer look at the 60-metre Project SkyFall Superyacht, MY Ultra G, the Dutch shipyard’s first launch of 2023.

The new year has started at full throttle for Heesen Yachts in Oss, with the opening weeks of 2023 seeing the launch of Project SkyFall, an all-aluminium, 60-metre superyacht – just 10 metres shorter than Heesen’s Galactica Super Nova .

In build since October 2020, the vessel has been christened MY Ultra G by its new owner, and will be followed by other unveilings by The Netherlands-based shipyard throughout the coming months.

Two images, one showing the innovative hull design and the other a man working on the ships detailing

The black and red exterior of the 918 gross-tonne (GT) superyacht has been styled by Frank Laupman at the UK-based Omega Architects, and draws inspiration from two luxury Heesen sportfishing yachts in the 1990s, namely the 38-metre MY Obsessions (from 1996), which was the largest sportfishing yacht of its time, until the baton was passed to the 39-metre MY Red Sapphire a year later.

MY Ultra G is capable of accommodating ten guests and 13 crew, and its luxurious interior, designed by the London-based studio Harrison Eidsgaard, features a master apartment complete with a jacuzzi, a large walk-in wardrobe, plus a large bathroom housing a central oval bath and separate shower.

The art of entertaining guests lies at the heart of the functionality of all social areas, both inside and out. For example, a custom-made wine cooler, with discrete sections at different temperatures takes pride of place in the main saloon.

The high-tech media room is home to Samsung’s new Wall TV, measuring nearly two metres by eight metres, and the elegant games table on the main deck forward, is undoubtedly the pièce de résistance. The sundeck, with its infinity pool facing aft, is the perfect setting for hosting receptions and musical entertainment.

For those who like to travel with their pets, four-legged friends are also treated to a luxurious experience, thanks to a series of carefully thought-out details to make their life at sea as safe and as stress-free as possible. These include the ‘relief area’, a self-flushing area of the side deck finished in synthetic grass, complete with sensors, cameras and sprinklers.

MY Ultra G is powered by four MTU 20V 4000 engines, driving four Kongsberg S90 waterjets, and delivering a staggering 22,000 horsepower. The outer powerplants, compliant with the latest Tier III environmental regulations, drive steerable jets, whilst the centre engines operate fixed booster units. With less back-pressure and a slightly higher power output, the centre engines are activated solely for the highest speeds.

A closeup view of the hull design

Thanks to its lightweight aluminium Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF), complete with course fins, gyro stabilisers and interceptor trim plates, MY Ultra G is able to reach an extraordinary top speed of 37 knots (42 mph) in light load conditions.

The hull has also been shaped to provide a much smoother and flatter ride, when compared to a conventional semi-displacement profile. In addition, three gyro-stabilisers will keep the yacht stable at low speeds.

Before MY Ultra G is handed over to its new owner, Heesen Yachts is now undertaking system commissioning testing prior to the superyacht departing the shipyard in Oss for intensive trials in the North Sea.

Heesen Launches Ultra G Superyacht

The 196.8-ft yacht is the Dutch shipbuilder's most powerful yet.

By Kim Ayling

Heesen ultra g yacht

Heesen has set the tone for another impressive year with the launch of its first yacht of 2023:  Ultra G.

Previously known under her build name of Project Skyfall,  Ultra G  takes the title of the Dutch shipbuilder ’s most powerful yacht yet, boasting 22,000 horsepower and a top speed of 37 knots.

The 196.8-ft yacht was a full-custom build, with the Heesen design team working closely to owner’s unique requirements. Among these was a desire to retain a sense of privacy onboard. As such, although the interiors have been designed for socializing, the bridge deck’s aft is reserved solely for private use.

Here, the owner can enjoy all the comforts of the master apartment, which includes a private terrace with a jacuzzi, a walk-in wardrobe and a spacious bathroom complete with a bath and separate shower.

In the main saloon, a custom wine fridge with discrete separate compartments for different temperatures acts as a centerpiece. The sleek space opens directly out onto a stylish sundeck with an infinity pool, creating ample opportunity for indoor-outdoor living.

Other owner requirements included needing extra details to ensure their pet dogs were as safe and stress-free as possible at sea. Among these extra pet-friendly features is the unique ‘relief area’, a self-flushing area of the side deck complete with synthetic grass, sensors, cameras and sprinklers.

Ultra G  will offer space for up to ten overnight guests throughout her cabins, with room for a total of thirteen crew. Smart separate stairwells not only maintain guest privacy but also allow for seamless service across the yacht.

Exclusive first look inside Heesen’s 60m Ultra G

Following the recent news that Heesen’s Ultra G has been sold and delivered to her new owner, the Dutch shipyard has released new exclusive images of her fresh interior, designed by British studio Harrison Eidsgaard . Previously known under her build name, Project Skyfall, the full-custom, 60-metre motor yacht is made of lightweight aluminium, which gives her an impressive 22,000hp engine capable of reaching a top speed of 37 knots. Penned by Frank Laupman of Omega Architects , the 918GT superyacht has a striking exterior profile that draws inspiration from Heesen’s sportfishing yachts of the 1990s - the 38.3-metre Obsessions and the 39.1-metre Red Sapphire - and is the culmination of over 40 years of shipbuilding experience. BOAT takes a closer look at her impressive interior features.

The main deck: the perfect social setting

The layout of Ultra G has been customised to suit the lifestyle preferences of its owner, emphasising entertainment and socialising whilst maintaining a private retreat for moments of solitude. Nowhere is this more evident than on the main deck, where every detail has been carefully considered to create the perfect setting for gathering and relaxation.

The main saloon features an open-plan design flooded with natural light, courtesy of expansive windows that offer views of the surrounding seascape. Amidships, there is a bar with a standout, temperature-controlled wine rack showcasing the owner's collection. This space transitions into a spacious lounge area, complete with a DJ deck and sound system. A formal dining area, able to seat up to 12 guests, is situated forward, adorned with an elegant oval design and illuminated by a striking light feature overhead.

One of the standout features of the main deck is the media room, located forward of the main saloon, offering a cosy space for relaxing nights in. Here, guests can curl up and watch movies in the cinema room or enjoy hours of family fun at the games table. Another area worth mentioning is the expansive garage, strategically located forward on the main deck in the bow, providing easy access to the yacht’s tenders and toys collection, which include custom-designed Seabobs and paddleboards.

The bridge deck: an owner’s dream

Whilst Ultra G accommodates a total of 10 guests across five suites, the bridge deck is reserved exclusively for the owner's pleasure. Here, there is a luxurious owner's suite positioned to face aft and featuring bespoke artworks. Entering the suite, you are welcomed by a giant statue of a whale tail before the space opens up into a spacious, cosy retreat with a king-sized bed and large sliding doors that open onto a private terrace adorned with a whirlpool and a seating area. The suite also features a spacious walk-in wardrobe, offering ample storage and a vanity table, whilst the ensuite bathroom features a standalone oval bathtub as the centrepiece with his and hers basins.

As requested by the owner, Ultra G has been thoughtfully designed to be dog-friendly throughout. A dedicated "dog-relief" area has been discreetly incorporated onto the owner's private terrace, which is cleaned automatically.

The lower deck: the ultimate retreat

A spiral staircase with intricate light features connects all four decks, serving as a visual centrepiece on board. Descending to the lower deck of Ultra G , guests will find the remaining four guest staterooms, comprising two doubles and two twins, each appointed with an ensuite bathroom. Forward, dedicated quarters can accommodate a crew of 13.

However, it is the stern area of the lower deck that truly distinguishes Ultra G from its peers. Rather than a traditional beach club, the yacht boasts a sophisticated fishing platform, complete with rod holders, flushing systems, ice lockers, freezers and live wells.

Dutch yacht builder Heesen announced that the Ultra G superyacht hit the water. The vessel, which was previously known as Project SkyFall, emerged from its shed at the builder’s facility in Oss on January 27th. Soon, the yacht will depart Oss, and it will begin intensive sea trials in the North Sea.

The design of this 60-meter (197-foot) superyacht takes inspiration from two luxury sportfishing yachts built by Heesen back in the ’90s: Obsessions and Red Sapphire. It’s an all-aluminum vessel that balances comfort and elegance with impressive performance.

Described as a “ sport fisherman in yacht disguise, ” the new Ultra G features a Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) that maximizes efficiency. The dynamic character is also highlighted by the striking profile with aggressive lines designed by Frank Laupman of Omega Architects. The yacht features a suggestive paint scheme with a black superstructure band and hardtop, and red accent stripes.

It has expansive social areas created to fit the needs and the lifestyle of the owner, who is a fishing enthusiast. The yacht comes with a fish cockpit on the aft deck, and it offers storage for 40 rods. And since it’s a luxurious vessel, Ultra G is also brimming with luxe amenities. The sundeck, for example, features an infinity pool positioned aft that allows guests to relax and admire the beautiful turquoise waters. There is also room next to the pool for receptions and musical entertainment.

Passengers will find a generous area for fresco dining on the aft terrace, as well as a large bar amidship where they sip delicious cocktails. Of course, the interiors are just as impressive. The main salon has an elegant oval table that can seat 12 and a custom wine fridge. The superyacht includes some entertainment spaces, too, such as a media room that comes complete with a cinema and a games table on the main deck forward.

Heesen even incorporated some dog-friendly features. People will find a “relief area,” which is actually a self-flushing zone on the side deck with synthetic grass, sprinklers, sensors, and cameras. Although the 197-footer has numerous spots that allow people to relax and socialize, the owner has its private master apartment on the bridge deck that includes a big walk-in closet, a jacuzzi, and a bathroom with an oval bath and a separate shower. This area comes with a private terrace as well.

In terms of performance, Ultra G does not disappoint. The luxury superyacht packs 22,000 hp produced by four MTU 20V4000 engines that feed four Kongsberg S90 water jets. That’s enough to take the vessel to an impressive top speed of 37 knots (43 mph/ 69 kph).

When compared to conventional shafts and propellers, the waterjet propulsion package reduces vibration by 40 percent. The FDHF hull, which has three gyro stabilizers, also ensures a smooth journey at sea. Currently, Ultra G is undergoing system commissioning testing. The all-aluminum superyacht will soon leave the shed in Oss to begin trials in the North Sea.
