Heysea Catamarans

Explore Heysea catamarans, compare sailing and power models, and discover ZORA NUA’s place in Croatia’s crewed charter market.

Heysea catamarans offer sailing and power designs for guests who value shared living areas, outdoor dining and time together on the water. Their appeal depends on how the layout, crew service and cruising style fit the people traveling.

This guide introduces the builder, compares selected models and explains what their design choices can mean for a charter. ZORA NUA provides a current example of Heysea entering Croatia’s crewed catamaran charter scene.

Who builds Heysea catamarans

Heysea is a yacht builder founded in 2004, with its shipyard in Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, China, and an office in Hong Kong. Its background includes larger motor yachts as well as its expanding catamaran range.

The range has two main families. Seaview, also presented as the SV series, comprises sailing catamarans. Vista, or the V series, comprises power catamarans. Both deserve consideration on their own terms: the sailing range offers time under sail, while the power range focuses on cruising under engine power.

Heysea also works with international designers. The builder credits Bill Dixon with naval architecture and exterior design for the SV60. For charter guests, the useful question is how those design choices translate into cabin comfort, usable deck space and everyday movement aboard.

Heysea sailing and power catamaran models

These five models illustrate the range. Dimensions are the builder’s published model figures, checked on November 7, 2026; they are not specifications for every individual yacht or a list of yachts available in Croatia.

A larger model gives designers more space to allocate, but length alone does not tell you how much room each guest receives. Compare the actual cabin plan, guest numbers and shared spaces before judging comfort.

Layout and comfort on Heysea catamarans

The SV60 illustrates the builder’s emphasis on connected living spaces. Its published design includes a main saloon, aft cockpit and flybridge, providing different places to gather or spend quieter time aboard.

For a family, the relationship between indoor seating and the cockpit can matter more than decorative finishes. For friends traveling together, the size of the dining area and the amount of shaded seating may influence daily comfort.

Accommodation options also change the balance between private and shared space. A layout with more cabins may suit a larger group, while another arrangement may give more space to an owner’s suite. Review the floorplan for the yacht being offered rather than assuming that all examples of a model share the same arrangement.

Cabin count is only the starting point. Check bed sizes, bathroom arrangements, storage and access. If anyone has limited mobility, ask about steps into the hulls, stairs to upper decks and the route from the cockpit to the swimming platform.

Who might enjoy a Heysea charter

Families and mixed groups may appreciate several separate places to relax, provided the cabin arrangement suits the adults and children traveling. A twin cabin can be useful for guests who prefer separate beds; couples may place greater value on comparable double cabins.

Guests interested in sailing should begin with the Seaview range. Choose it if time under sail is part of the experience you want, while allowing for weather and the captain’s itinerary decisions. A sailing yacht may also motor during the charter.

Guests who prefer engine-powered cruising can explore the Vista range. Compare the particular yacht’s speed, fuel use and operating costs before deciding whether it suits the route and budget. A power catamaran should not automatically be assumed to be fast or inexpensive to run.

Food-focused travelers should give crew service as much attention as the yacht’s design. Ask who prepares meals, how service duties are shared and how the crew handles dietary preferences. The builder’s name does not establish whether a dedicated chef is included.

What varies between individual yachts

Heysea promotes different propulsion and onboard energy options, including diesel, battery-supported and hybrid arrangements. These are options within the builder’s offering; they do not establish the system installed on a charter yacht or how quietly it can operate overnight.

Interior finishes, air-conditioning arrangements, crew accommodation and water-toy inventories can also differ. Ask for the installed equipment and current operating arrangements, especially if quiet nights, a particular activity or a specific level of service is central to your plans.

Heysea enters Croatia’s charter scene

ZORA NUA brings a practical Croatia example to this broader introduction. MCYC’s current profile identifies a Heysea catamaran built in 2026, accommodating up to 10 guests in five cabins, with three crew. The listed accommodation comprises four double cabins and one twin.

That arrangement may suit a family or mixed group wanting a combination of shared and separate beds. A group of five couples should review the twin cabin before deciding whether the yacht fits their preferences.

ZORA NUA’s presence introduces Heysea to Croatia’s crewed catamaran charter market. More Heysea catamarans may enter the charter market over time, including in Croatia, but further additions to the Croatian fleet remain unconfirmed. The manufacturer’s wider model range should not be read as a list of locally available charter yachts.

Availability, crew arrangements and equipment must be reconfirmed for the requested dates. Use the current yacht profile as a starting point, then request a proposal for your group.

Heysea catamarans FAQ

Where are Heysea catamarans built?

Heysea’s shipyard is in Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, China, and the company maintains an office in Hong Kong. Founded in 2004, the builder’s range includes motor yachts, Seaview sailing catamarans and Vista power catamarans.

Does Heysea build sailing and power catamarans?

Yes. The Seaview or SV series comprises sailing catamarans, while the Vista or V series comprises power catamarans. Start with your preferred cruising style, then compare the actual yacht’s accommodation, crew service and equipment rather than choosing by series name alone.

Can you charter a Heysea catamaran in Croatia?

ZORA NUA is listed by MCYC for crewed charter in Croatia, with accommodation for up to 10 guests in five cabins. Availability depends on the requested dates. Other Heysea models should not be assumed available locally simply because they appear in the manufacturer’s range.

Will more Heysea catamarans become available for charter?

More Heysea catamarans may enter the charter market as individual owners place yachts into charter. Further additions to Croatia’s fleet remain unconfirmed. Ask your broker for current options when planning your trip rather than relying on anticipated launches or future fleet growth.

Do all Heysea catamarans have the same layout and crew?

No. Cabin arrangements, finishes, installed systems and crew service can differ between individual yachts. Review the specific cabin plan and crew roles for your proposal. ZORA NUA’s listed five-cabin arrangement, for example, should not be applied to every Heysea catamaran.

How much does a Heysea catamaran charter cost?

There is no single charter price for the brand. The rate depends on the yacht, season, destination and contract. Request a current quote showing the base rate, applicable taxes, APA and other charges so you can compare the overall budget with alternative yachts.
