Set to make a public debut at the Monaco Yacht Show later this year, the Galactica Super Nova is a state-of-the art ship, the largest built by Heesen Yachts and the fastest of its size

The Netherlands–based Heesen Yachts launched the highly anticipated Galactica Super Nova (developed under the code name Project Kometa) superyacht in March. Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, Galactica Star, the 229-foot masterpiece is a sporty, speedy yacht that makes a statement on the water.

A touch-and-go helipad doubles as an outdoor cinema, complete with a pop-up movie screen. A variety of tenders and toys, including an amphibious Quadski, allow yachters to play on the water and land during afternoon excursions.

After Galactica Super Nova is tested in the North Sea, it will be delivered to the owners in May 2016 before making a public debut at the Monaco Yacht Show this fall.
