Celebrating a Remarkable Achievement: Cinderella Noel IV Wins the World Yacht Trophy
We are thrilled to announce that Cinderella Noel IV has been awarded the prestigious World Yacht Trophy at this year’s Cannes Boat Show. This outstanding achievement not only highlights the yacht’s outstanding craftmanship but also celebrates the dedication and passion of everyone involved in its creation. Congratulations to the owners for this remarkable honour, and a heartfelt salute to the talented designers, Clifford Denn and Luca Dini Design & Architecture, whose extraordinary vision brought this magnificent yacht to life.
The award ceremony took place at the renowned Carlton Hotel’s beach club, an iconic venue that perfectly complemented the grandeur of the occasion. The evening culminated in a spectacular fireworks display, adding an enchanting atmosphere to the celebration and marking a memorable night for all in attendance.
Cinderella Noel IV is a standout achievement, made even more remarkable due to the deep involvement of the owners in every decision regarding the yacht’s design and operation. It is rare to see a family so intimately engaged with a 50-meter yacht boasting an enclosed volume of 499GT. Their commitment, passion, and hands-on approach to yachting have imbued the vessel with a distinctive identity, deepening the bond between the owners and the yacht, and enriching the entire yachting experience.
This recognition not only celebrates the unique family behind Cinderella Noel IV but also highlights the hard work and dedication of everyone at Heesen who contributed to bringing this remarkable yacht to life. Our team, along with the owners’ team at Stefan Zucker and Partners, worked tirelessly to ensure that every detail met the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
Adding to the prestige of the event, the 23rd edition of the Cannes Boat Show featured a multitude of luxurious yachts and incredible designs. One of the highlights was a magical yacht parade, which left spectators in awe. With approximately 500 guests in attendance, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement, showcasing the best of the glamour associated with the French Riviera.
For Heesen, this year’s event was especially significant as we continue to focus on the evolving demands of the yacht market, particularly in the 50-metre range exemplified by Cinderella Noel IV. As the boat show season officially kicked off, the event provided an excellent platform not only for showcasing our innovations but also for fostering connections with key stakeholders in the industry. It was an opportunity for us to celebrate our heritage while highlighting the advancements in yacht design and construction.
The triumph of Cinderella Noel IV at the World Yacht Trophy epitomises the spirit of innovation, commitment, and luxury that Heesen stands for. As we look forward to the future, we are proud to have had a part in creating a yacht that resonates with those values. Whether you are a yacht enthusiast, an industry professional, or simply someone captivated by the elegance of the French Riviera, Cinderella Noel IV has set a new standard in the world of yachting, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds for her and her dedicated team.
