Cinderella Noel IV Superyacht

Penned by Clifford Denn, the exterior is characterized by long, flowing lines and a round-bilge hull. The owner, who is a skilled seafarer, added a second steering position on the flybridge and a foldable mast that allows the vessel to pass beneath bridges. He also opted for a hybrid propulsion system (a first for Heesen) that ensures cleaner cruising and reinforced insulation to keep things cozy even in northern areas.

“Heesen’s Smart Custom solution represented the perfect starting point for an experienced yachtsman to concentrate on the important details for him and his family,” the owner’s representative, Stefan Zucker, said in a statement . “ Cinderella Noel IV is a testament to Heesen’s intelligent approach, allowing this family to create their dream machine with the certainty of a result which would have taken considerably more time and cost to build individually without being sufficiently tested.”

The owner worked closely with Luca Dini Design and Architecture and Heesen’s in-house engineering team to create a layout suited to long periods at sea. The living quarters feature his and her working spaces and sliding partitions that create privacy as needed. The decor is the epitome of “quiet luxury,” with subtle white, greige, and taupe furnishings contrasting rich wood flooring. There are pops of deep blues and greens, too, with the colorway reflecting the high-latitude parts of the world Cinderella Noel IV will cruise.

The exterior decks are nothing to sneeze at, either, with a glass-bottomed swimming pool, a fire pit, and multiple lounge and dining areas.

“ Cinderella Noel IV is imbued in every detail with the owners’ passion and experience,” adds Heesen CCO Mark Cavendish. “The energy they have put into creating a yacht that perfectly suits their lifestyle is impressive.”

Cinderella Noel IV is expected to officially take to the seas in March 2024.

Heesen Yachts Delivers 164-foot “Cinderella Noel IV”

  • By Caleb Revill
  • April 26, 2024

Cinderella Noel IV

Heesen Yachts delivered the newly finished YN 20150 Cinderella Noel IV to its owners on Saturday, April 20, according to a press release from the company. The delivery comes after intensive tests in the North Sea proved successful even during torrential weather.

Yacht consultants Zucker & Partner, with its team, advised and guided the owners throughout the many decisions taken during the 41 months of lead time. The owners collaborated closely with Heesen’s engineers and the Luca Dini Design and Architecture team to realize their ambition of building a yacht for extended cruising in the Scandinavian archipelago and Norwegian fjords.

Cinderella Noel IV proved more than a match for rough weather conditions during its three days of sea trials in the North Sea.

“The weather worsened during the course of the tests and we ended up with wave heights increasing to 2.6 meters and wind speeds up to around 30 knots,” said shipyard captain Bob van Zundert in a press release from Heesen. “Conditions were perfect to test the handling of Cinderella Noel IV. Her swift responses to helm and throttle commands in rough sea conditions generated a lot of confidence. It is a privilege to have clients on board during the tests, and we enjoyed letting them see what their new yacht is capable of.”

Cinderella Noel IV

Built by Heesen’s engineering platform as a smart custom yacht, the vessel was christened by its owners, shipyard employees and subcontractors last December. The 50-meter, round-bilge steel motoryacht features a hybrid drivetrain that can draw on diesel engines and electric motors for both propulsion and hotel needs. This hybrid system allows for silent cruising and minimal vibration to enhance comfort levels on board.

The Cinderella Noel IV sports twin MTU 8V4000 M63 (IMO Tier III) main engines, each coupled to a water-cooled, 135 kW Danfoss electric motor on the same propeller shaft. Three available cruising modes offer options for flexible power management as well as redundancy.

Stefan Zucker and Sven Stark, the clients’ surveyors and project managers, spoke about their clients’ enthusiasm for the yacht and its building process.

“We have hardly experienced such intense involvement of clients ever before, showing so much enthusiasm and enjoyment for the yacht and appreciation for everybody of the build-team,” Zucker and Stark said in a press release from Heesen. “Heesen succeeded perfectly to integrate these enthusiastic owners in the production procedure and milestones.”

The yacht’s interior is decorated in a Scandinavian aesthetic with white, greige and taupe soft furnishings with high-gloss Indian rosewood and dark oak soles. Fine-leather panels crafted by Foglizzo Atelier depict antique sea charts of the owners’ favorite cruising areas. Additionally, the yacht has a glass-bottomed pool and large aft cockpit screens for the upper deck and main deck.

“It has been a pleasure to build Cinderella Noel IV and work so closely with her owners on a yacht that fits them like a glove and can take them safely wherever they want to go,” said Heesen COO Rick van de Wetering in a press release from the company. “During the past 41 months, we have built a strong bond with our energetic clients and their teams, and we will miss them in the yard. We look forward to their updates on the great adventures they will have aboard their wonderful yacht. On behalf of everyone at the shipyard, we wish them fair winds and following seas!”

Heesen delivers the 50-metre smart-custom with a hybrid propulsion named Cinderella Noel IV.

cinderella 4 yacht

Heesen is delighted to announce the delivery of YN 20150 Cinderella Noel IV after intensive tests in the North Sea. The owners christened their yacht on December 23, 2023, in an unforgettable ceremony for all the shipyard’s employees and subcontractors who contributed to the construction of their yacht.

ZUCKER & PARTNER, with their team, advised and guided the owners throughout the many decisions taken during the 41 months of lead time. Collaborating closely with Heesen’s engineers and the Luca Dini Design and Architecture team, the owners have realised their ambition to build the perfect yacht for extended cruising in the Scandinavian archipelago and Norwegian fjords, offering unparalleled privacy and comfort for family and friends.

Stefan Zucker and Sven Stark, the clients‘ surveyors and project managers, comment: “We have hardly experienced such intense involvement of clients ever before, showing so much enthusiasm and enjoyment for the yacht and appreciation for everybody of the build-team and Heesen succeeded perfectly to integrate these enthusiastic owners in the production procedure and milestones.”

Everyone at the shipyard agrees that what makes Cinderella Noel IV an extraordinary yacht is her owners. The client himself is an accomplished yachtsman who also captains the boat and has introduced a wealth of practical and technical ideas from his many years of sailing experience. They have brought so much intention and attention to every detail because they plan to spend a significant part of their lives sailing on their boat. Their deep knowledge and clear understanding of 2 how to operate a yacht presented a golden opportunity for our shipyard to participate in the creation of this one-of-a-kind Heesen.

cinderella 4 yacht

Cinderella Noel IV is built on our proven engineering platform as a smart custom yacht , so her exceptional performance is no surprise. She exceeded all expectations during three days of sea trials in the North Sea, even in rough weather conditions. The shipyard’s captain Bob van Zundert comments: “The weather worsened during the course of the tests and we ended up with wave heights increasing to 2.6 metres and wind speeds up to around 30 knots. Conditions were perfect to test the handling of Cinderella Noel IV. Her swift responses to helm and throttle commands in rough sea conditions generated a lot of confidence. It is a privilege to have clients on board during the tests, and we enjoyed letting them see what their new yacht is capable of.”

Working on a familiar engineering ground allowed Heesen and the owners’ team to direct their efforts and attention to the fine details. It represented the ideal springboard for these experienced clients, allowing the shipyard to create a dream machine with the best possible balance between quality, customisation, and delivery time.

To minimise the vessel’s environmental impact, the owner has opted for a hybrid propulsion system that embraces the best of 21st-century technology. Heesen’s hybrid system offers incontrovertible advantages over traditional diesel propulsion and will ensure that Cinderella Noel IV is cleaner, quieter, and more efficient than comparable conventional crafts.

The hybrid drivetrain can draw on diesel engines and electric motors for both propulsion and hotel needs. In automotive engineering, such systems emphasize energy saving and reducing emissions, but hybrid propulsion at sea has broader aims. Silent cruising and minimal vibration enormously enhance comfort levels on board and are especially appealing during night passages.

The heart of the hybrid system is the yacht’s twin MTU 8V4000 M63 (IMO Tier III) main engines, each coupled to a water-cooled, 135kW Danfoss electric motor on the same propeller shaft. Thanks to its three cruising modes, this configuration offers versatility of operations, flexible power management, and redundancy.

Rick van de Wetering, Heesen’s Chief Operating Officer, comments: “It has been a pleasure to build Cinderella Noel IV and work so closely with her owners on a yacht that fits them like a glove and can take them safely wherever they want to go. During the past 41 months, we have built a strong bond with our energetic clients and their teams, and we will miss them in the yard. We look forward to their updates on the great adventures they will have aboard their wonderful yacht. On behalf of everyone at the shipyard, we wish them fair winds and following seas!”

The shipyard considers it a golden opportunity to be involved in creating this unique Heesen yacht, given the owners’ deep knowledge and understanding of yacht operation.

Cinderella Noel IV Heesen Yachts Superyacht

Working on a well-established engineering ground enabled Heesen and his owners’ team to focus their efforts and attention on the finer details.

Ohio Air Force vet, brother sentenced to 4 months in 'notorious' Dubai prison after yacht drinking incident

T wo Ohio brothers, one an Air Force veteran, were sentenced to spend four months in a Dubai prison after an incident involving drinking on a yacht in June, a crime in the United Arab Emirates.

Radha Stirling, CEO of human rights organization Detained in Dubai and an advocate for Joseph and Joshua Lopez, alleges the brothers were drugged and robbed on the same night as the drinking that landed them in jail, and they are calling on U.S. lawmakers, including Republican Ohio Sen. JD Vance , for help. The drugging allegations have yet to be officially confirmed.

"Sen. Vance’s office has been in constant communication with the State Department, the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in the United States and the constituents’ family," Vance spokesperson Parker Magid told Fox News Digital. "Sen. Vance is monitoring the as-yet-unresolved legal proceedings carefully."

Stirling said the Lopez brothers are appealing their sentence, alleging they were "targeted by scammers while on vacation in Dubai."

WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO…AMERICANS DETAINED IN RUSSIA?

"While local criminals target tourists with what appears to be the support of law enforcement, Dubai is far from the ‘safe tourist destination’ it’s marketed as," Stirling said.

READ ON THE FOX NEWS APP

The State Department told Fox News Digital in a statement it is aware of the Lopez brothers' recent arrests.

AMERICAN ARRESTED IN TURKS AND CAICOS SAYS IS ‘UNCLEAR’ IF STATE DEPT WAS ON ‘US SIDE’ OR ‘TURKS SIDE’

"We take our role in assisting U.S. citizens abroad seriously and are monitoring the situation," a spokesperson said. "Due to privacy and other considerations, we have no further comment at this time. U.S. citizens are subject to the laws of the foreign countries they visit or reside in, even when those laws differ from U.S. law."

Neither the UAE Embassy nor the UAE tourist police responded to inquiries from Fox News Digital.

The State Department has a Level 2 travel advisory listed for the UAE due to threats of terrorism. The State Department's website for the UAE notes that alcohol is "very limited" in certain private areas, and "[p]ublic drunkenness and driving under the influence, regardless of one’s blood alcohol content level, are considered very serious offenses."

"Persons arrested on alcohol-related offenses are regularly detained for many days as they await a court hearing. Penalties may include hefty jail sentences, substantial fines and, for Muslims (even those holding U.S. citizenship), lashings," the website states.

The State Department also notes the country's "strict" laws on drugs, public decency, photography, social media usage and LGBTQ-related activities or preferences.

OKLAHOMA MAN PRAISES GOD, US LAWMAKER IN RETURN HOME AFTER AMMO ARREST IN TURKS AND CAICOS

Stirling said if the brothers' appeal is unsuccessful, Joseph, a veteran and 24-year-old father, and Joshua "face months in Dubai jails notorious for human rights abuses."

"Visitors are flocking into Dubai and facing the most ridiculous charges for alleged crimes they haven’t even committed. Last year, we saw Tierra Allen targeted by a rental car company, Elizabeth de las Santos targeted by an immigration officer and Peter Clark detained for residual hashish found in his blood that he’d legally smoked in Las Vegas weeks before flying," Stirling said.

She is pressing the United States to "increase travel warnings" for Americans going to Dubai.

"Not only will they be robbed and extorted, but they’ll usually end up in prison too," she said.

Fox News' Mollie Markowitz contributed to this report.
