On June 18, 2026, Dutch shipyard Heesen Yachts announced their most ambitious build to date: the 72.3-meter Project Ananda. Built on their innovative “Smart Custom” platform, this steel-hulled vessel integrates a Fast Displacement Hull Form (FDHF) with advanced hybrid propulsion, setting a new benchmark for sustainable yachting.
