About Jems

Originally launched in 2009 and comprehensively refitted in 2022, the 144ft (44m) Jems by Heesen combines proven naval architecture with contemporary interiors and updated systems. Her 5 staterooms – 1 King, 2 Queen and 2 Twin – sleep 10 guests in comfort, while day charters accommodate 12. A seasoned crew of 8 ensures smooth operations and attentive service.

 

Refined Comfort

The 2022 refit brought Jems up to current standards, and it shows in every detail. Stabilizers keep the yacht rock-steady at anchor and underway at 20 knots, making her a particularly good choice for guests who value calm conditions aboard. The Deck Jacuzzi, a deck jacuzzi, a swim platform, an on-board gym, and an outdoor cinema, and thoughtfully designed social spaces give the yacht a resort-quality feel while retaining the intimacy of a private vessel. Updated finishes throughout the interior provide a welcoming retreat after each day’s adventures.

 

Toys & Tenders

With 11 water toys stowed aboard, Jems turns every anchorage into an activity hub. The lineup includes two jet skis, two Seabobs, water skis, a wakeboard, a kayak, towable inflatables, and surf and kite gear, while the 14ft Tender provides quick access to hidden beaches and reef snorkeling spots. All equipment is maintained and set up by the crew – guests simply step in and go.

 

Your Voyage in Mediterranean

Jems charters throughout France, Monaco, Italy and Greece in the Mediterranean, repositioning seasonally to offer the best cruising conditions at any time of year. The recommended charter months are Jul, Aug, when sea conditions and destination access are optimal. A refitted yacht like Jems brings peace of mind alongside luxury – updated safety systems, modern navigation, and a hull proven across thousands of sea miles. Each itinerary is tailored to the group’s interests.
