About Heliad III
Delivered in 2020, HELIAD III combines traditional exterior lines with modern technology. With exterior design by De Vries in collaboration with Diana Yacht Design, and a highly upgraded interior by Lynx Yachts, this steel yacht offers vast interior volumes and excellent stability and seaworthiness. She is also perfectly placed for charter operations with access to all major anchorages provided, with thanks to her sub-24m load line length and commercial registration.
