Accommodation aboard Heesen GAJA is provided to up to twelve guests in six beautifully appointed staterooms. These include a full-beam master suite, one VIP cabin and four double guest cabins.
The yacht has amazing 357 square metres of deck space for entertainment and relaxation. From her breath-taking sun deck to the beach club, there are twelve alternatives for guests to choose from, including sunbathing, dining, spa, Jacuzzis, jet-pool or just lounging around in the sun or shade.
The vessel features advanced technology, including the revolutionary fast displacement hull, a groundbreaking fixed pitch propeller and a Rolls Royce central booster jet. Her foredeck can be used as touch-and-go helipad, sunbathing, informal dining or transformed in outdoor cinema. In addition, there is a 6-metre swim-jet infinity pool with waterfall, glass panelled bottom and spa jets for hydro massage, 44 m2 space of platforms unfolding from the 146m2 beach club, as well as shaded sun deck that includes sunpads, barbeque, bar, dining area and lounge. The upper deck combines with the sky lounge to create an enormous indoor/outdoor entertainment area of 92m2.
Utilising the Heesen’s revolutionary fast displacement technology, the all-aluminium GAJA can reach an amazing maximum speed of 30 knots.
Heesen Yachts Comments: "Devised by van Oossanen Naval Architects the Fast Displacement Hull Form of Galactica Super Nova has been thoroughly optimised using extensive CFD analysis that led to design a more stretched aft body, further improving efficiency.”
The angle and position of the fin stabilisers ensures major comfort for the guests on board with minimal effect on the speed. Humphrey interceptors were added to the hull design allowing for comfortable, dynamic trim response at all speeds.

Quick Enquiry
"People who charter a yacht tend to want as many experiences as they can in a short space of time. It’s essentially a vacation in compressed format, so the yacht needs to collaborate with you in that. You need lots of different places to eat on board, so every day offers something different. The yacht also needs to make getting ashore easy, for meals on the beach and excursions, so it feels like you never do the same thing twice." - Espen Øino
