Refit Transforms Heesen Classic

The 44-metre Heesen motor yacht Tahi has completed an extensive refit. Designers have reimagined the yacht as a showcase of modern Latin American artistry.

Tahi now charters in the Mediterranean for the summer season. Brokers MYSEA handle bookings from offices in Monaco, London, and Croatia.

Originally launched by Heesen as Brazil, the yacht retains strong Dutch engineering pedigree. However, the new interior delivers a bold and distinctive character.

Luc Deflorenne Brings Brazilian Spirit On Board

Designer Luc Deflorenne led the creative transformation.

He combined technical excellence with a vibrant, soulful interior concept.

As a result, Tahi now stands apart from other yachts in her class.

A Celebration of Brazilian Heritage

The new design draws inspiration from Brazil and Bahia’s lush landscapes. The main saloon feels bright and inviting. Bespoke rugs, rich oak, and marble finishes define the space. Mid-century furniture by Jorge Zalszupin adds iconic design heritage.

The dining area pays tribute to the Amazon through colour and texture. Five guest cabins accommodate up to ten guests. Layered Safran fabrics and woven details create a warm, comfortable retreat.

Outdoor Living for the Mediterranean Lifestyle

  • Tahi pairs bold interiors with generous exterior spaces.
  • Sundeck: The sundeck bursts with Latin American colour and energy. Guests can relax in the Jacuzzi or stretch out on sun loungers.
  • Bridge Deck: A newly designed bar sits on the bridge deck. This space acts as an “ode to the Amazon” during evening cocktails.
  • Watersports Hub: A 5.05-metre Williams Jet Tender supports shore trips. Two Seadoo Explorer Jet Skis add extra excitement. Kayaks, SUPs, and wakeboards complete the toy selection.

Performance Meets Comfort

Despite the artistic refit, Tahi remains a capable semi-displacement yacht. Twin 2,200hp MTU engines deliver a comfortable 14-knot cruising speed.

Stabilisers enhance onboard comfort in varied sea conditions. Guests can therefore enjoy a smooth and relaxed cruising experience.

Mediterranean Charter Availability

Tahi offers a blend of performance, design, and cultural flair. Guests cruise iconic Mediterranean waters in a uniquely styled setting. Charter bookings in France and Italy open from 1 July. MYSEA manages all arrangements for the summer season.
