Heesen announced the delivery of the 50m (163’4″) superyacht MASA (ex PROJECT ASTER, YN 750). With the launch in 2019, she is the most recent addition to the Heesen 5000 Aluminium Class fleet of 50m semi-displacement yachts.

Prior to delivery, she underwent extensive sea trials where she not only proved her maximum speed but exceeded it, making it now over 23 knots.
Motor yacht MASA was designed by Frank Laupman of Omega Architects who design the entire 5000 Aluminium Class. Cristiano Gatto, who designed the light and airy interiors, created some outstanding features, such as silver leaf ceilings, curved pieces of furniture and brushed spruce.
