The team at Amels and Damen Yachting has confirmed the sale of the second Amels 200 following her launch at the Damen Yachting yard in the Netherlands – the second RoFlo launch of the year for the Dutch yacht builder. This 60-metre (197ft) Amels Limited Editions, featuring exterior design by Tim Heywood and custom interiors by Luxury Projects, will now undergo the final stages of outfitting ahead of her delivery this summer.


DAMON SMALLWOOD

The Owner of Amels 200-02 was represented in the sale by Damon Smallwood of Superyacht Sales and Charter. ‘It has been a pleasure to work with Damen Yachting on behalf of the new owners, the clients purchased her very late into the project and the Damen Team has gone above and beyond to meet their special requests. The new Owners look forward to taking delivery of this beautiful yacht this Summer.’
TIM HEYWOOD EXTERIOR

The Amels 200 design shares the same naval architecture, high volume and hybrid electrical power technology as its predecessor, the Amels 188, as well as the four-deck elevator and air-conditioned gym on Sun Deck. However, the elongated Amels 200 features larger aft decks and Swim Platform and full-height windows in the Owners Suite, design features which Tim Heywood has previous described as ‘only increasing her elegance and sophisticated appearance, as well as elevating the functionality of her interior, which is illuminated by enlarged windows’.


LUXURY PROJECTS CUSTOM INTERIORS

The custom interiors of Amels 200-02 are the work of the Ancona-based design studio Luxury Projects, who were commissioned for the concept interior design for the Amels 200. Italian designer Laura Pomponi, CEO and founder of the studio, comments on what it means to reach this milestone in the project’s journey and how it is has been to work on an Amels Limited Editions. ‘It’s been 4 exciting years, and a true pleasure working with the Amels and Damen Yachting team, where the professionalism, the perfection, the dedication to the product is simply amazing. Up until the moment of sale, we have been working with Amels as if we have been working for a Client without any difference. The cooperation to reach this point and to achieve the sale has been fantastic and it’s wonderful to see her launched and ready for the final phase before delivery to her new Owner.’


AMELS 200

Amels and Damen Yachting sales manager Jorrit Pilaar has been involved in the project throughout the sales and build process. ‘We are delighted to have sold Amels 200-02 and also to be able to mark the occasion with her launch. The collaboration with all parties involved have contributed to reaching this wonderful milestone and the success of the project. I look forward to seeing the final stages come together and delivering her to her Owner later this year.’

Second Amels 200 launched following sale

In a landmark moment for both Owner and builder, the first Amels 60 has been unveiled. As she headed outside for the very first time since arriving at our shipyard in Vlissingen last summer, there was a unique opportunity to catch a first glimpse of this brand new, next generation 60-metre Amels Limited Editions featuring exterior design by Espen Øino. This debut appearance comes ahead of her official launch and delivery scheduled for later this Spring.   

 “A new era has dawned on our Amels Limited Editions. The proven platform and Amels pedigree our Owners expect – shaped for the future. This is an incredible moment not only for the Owner and his team, but for everyone who has been involved in bringing the Amels 60 to life. The next generation starts here. A star has emerged.” Managing Director Rose Damen. 



DISTINCTIVE LINES AND GEOMETRIC SHAPING 

As Amels 6001 made her way out of the dry dock at the heart of our new build yacht operations, onlookers (both physical and those who joined the online streaming event providing real-time coverage as she emerged into the open air) were treated to a first look at just why this 60-metre Amels Limited Editions is already considered a star.

The distinctive lines and geometric shaping of her timeless Espen Øino exterior design are perfectly complimented by her unique and Owner-specified custom colour scheme. Her standout metallic Pebble Grey hull with Matterhorn White and Super Jet Black superstructure was made all the more beautiful as daylight hit the stunning paint scheme for the first time.  

“The Amels 60 is the first Limited Editions design we are involved with and it has been a fascinating journey thus far. The design process is somewhat different, as one is designing not for an individual client but rather for a group of potential clients, so a proper market research as to what this target group is looking for is fundamental for the success of the project as a whole. Considering that five Amels 60s have already been sold prior to launching the first vessel, this is a testimony to Amels and their in depth research from which the design found its inspiration. As a design studio, having worked mostly with custom designed yachts, we are very enthusiastic and proud to be part of this very exciting programme.” Exterior Designer Espen Øino. 


BUILT FOR THE FUTURE 

Amels 6001 is a superyacht designed and built for the future. She features hybrid power and propulsion technology and the overall design focuses on the onboard user experience. There is an emphasis on space throughout with the large Sun Deck, Swim Platform and folding Owners Suite balcony and generous interior volume of 830 GT. There is even space for a 9-metre luxury tender to be stowed on the foredeck. And it is the custom interiors by Winch Design which bring this clever provision of space together. 

“The harmonious custom interiors capture the feel and style of a relaxed family home on the water, promoting a ‘calm atmosphere and involuntary relaxation’. For the most part, we have used pure and natural materials to emphasise the relaxed ‘home at the beach’ spirit of the interior. However, we have also added layers of surface interest to materials such as stones and timbers to create unique and tactile finishes.” Jim Dixon, Director Yachts & Aviation, Winch Design.   


TRANSFORMATION

This first Amels 60 originally arrived in Vlissingen in July 2021 for the outfitting phase. Since then a team of 100s of craftsmen and women have been involved in transforming this first hull of a new generation of Limited Editions, into the stunning superyacht she has become today. 

Milestone moments like these are always special for every project but it’s no surprise that this one carries an extra element of pride and excitement for the entire team at Damen Yachting. This is the first ever Amels 60 to emerge from the build shed, the first of a new Amels Limited Editions series and the first of more to come! She is a beautiful yacht and a wonderful first impression of the new Amels design. Her metallic hull is remarkable and it’s amazing to see how it works with the design, especially now that she is out in the daylight.  It’s not just the exceptional colour, it’s the way it changes with the light and angle.”  Project Manager Joppe Osté. 

This Amels 60 was introduced in 2019 and redefines the look of Damen Yachting’s hugely successful Limited Editions range. The market reception to this new generation Amels Limited Editions has proved strong with the sale of the fifth hull from the design confirmed in the last quarter of 2021.

The Next Generation Starts Here

Launch season is officially under way at Damen Yachting. The latest Amels 242 has emerged from the drydock in the Netherlands. A milestone which marks the start of her final build phase ahead of her delivery in a few months’ time. 


SEVENTH IN SUCCESSFUL 242 LINE  

This 74-metre (242 ft) Amels is the seventh yacht to be launched from this successful Limited Editions design which features the signature exterior lines of Tim Heywood. The Owner has been represented throughout the build by Imperial. 


FEATURING UNIQUE CUSTOMIZATIONS AND EQUIPPED WITH THE LATEST IMO TIER III PACKAGE 

Featuring custom interiors by Winch Design, Amels 24207 is a wonderful example of the Amels Limited Editions concept. Amidst a market where fast delivery times and build slots are becoming more challenging to come by, she will be delivered ahead of the summer season and within 18 months of her Owner stepping into the project whilst still featuring a number of unique customisations.

With a Gross Tonnage of 1,790, Amels 24207 accommodates 12 guests and 19 crew. She features a dedicated Owners Deck with foredeck jacuzzi and an increased capacity helicopter deck. The yacht is equipped with the latest IMO Tier III clean emissions power and propulsion package. 


INTO THE NEXT PHASE 

“Seeing Amels 24207 head out of the shed, into the daylight and onto the water for the first time is a proud moment for the entire team at Damen Yachting. We are now looking forward to the next phase as we embark upon the final build stages and sea trials ahead of delivery to her Owner, ready for a summer of adventures at sea.” Peter Dijkwel, Project Manager Damen Yachting   

The Amels Limited Editions range of superyachts offers a proven technical platform with custom interiors. Damen Yachting has delivered more than 40 Amels Limited Editions yachts since 2005.  

74 metre Amels 242 Launched

The Amels 242 AVANTI has departed the Damen Yachting Vlissingen City shipyard in the Netherlands.

The departure of AVANTI, built at Damen Yachting under the project name SHADOW, comes just 1 year after the sale of this Amels 242 was announced.  Moran Yacht & Ship represented the Owner for the purchase and completion of this project

“We would like to congratulate the Damen Yachting shipyard, project managers, support staff, andskilled craftsmen and workers at the shipyard for their dedication and support throughout thisproject. We would also like to thank the Owner for the trust they put in our team to complete this incredible project and the Captain and crew for their hard work and tireless effort. It was a pleasure to once again work with the team at Damen Yachting on the construction of AVANTI and we look forward to many more successful deliveries with the yard in the future.” Sean Moran.



AVANTI stems from the successful Amels 242 Limited Editions range. She is the 6th yacht to be delivered from this design and the 1st IMO Tier III compliant Amels 242. Her unmistakable Tim Heywood exterior design has been uniquely finished with an Ice Blue Hull and Matterhorn White superstructure. AVANTI features custom interiors by Winch Design. As with all Amels Limited Editions, AVANTI benefits from the proven naval architecture by Damen Yachting.

As an Amels Limited Editions, AVANTI perfectly captures the essence of the design evolution associated with the successful build platform by incorporating the additions and customisations incorporated into her predecessors.

With a Gross Tonnage of 1,790, AVANTI accommodates 12 guests in 6 cabins with 19 crew. The yacht’s garage holds 3 tenders, as well as 2 wave runners and a professional diving equipment set-up.








Amels 242 AVANTI Sets Sail 

Congratulations to 74-metre Amels 242 SYNTHESIS [/api/preview?slug=en/fleet/synthesis] and Amels 60-metre 200 MOONSTONE [/api/preview?slug=en/fleet/moonstone], announced as finalists in the 2022 BOAT Design Innovation Awards. Our Dutch superyacht production team delivered both yachts in 2021. The yachts stood out in the category Best Motor Yacht Interior Design 500 GT and above. Whilst both Limited Editions bear the unmistakable exterior design signature of Tim Heywood, their interiors are the custom works of two different interior design studios. 


INTERIORS OF SYNTHESIS BREAK AWAY FROM CONVENTION 

SYNTHESIS, fifth of our successful Amels 242 Limited Editions design, was delivered in January 2021 and features bespoke interiors by Winch Design. The custom interiors take the refinement of this Limited Editions to the next level with a unique inspiration and approach to layouts that break away from convention and focus on entertainment and flowing spaces, whilst still ensuring complete Owner privacy when needed.

‘We are thrilled that Synthesis has been nominated in the 2022 BOAT D&I Awards, continuing the success of this tried and tested Amels 242 Limited Editions Range that we have had the pleasure of designing the interiors for. Receiving this recognition for SYNTHESIS’s interior design excellence is testament to the exceptional creativity, innovation and design quality from the Winch Design team and we very much look forward to the Awards.’ Jim Dixon, Director of Yacht & Aviation at Winch Design. 
ELEGANT MOONSTONE INTERIORS EXACTLY AS DREAMED 

MOONSTONE, the second yacht from the Amels 200 Limited Editions design and delivered in July 2021, features custom interiors by Luxury Projects. The brief was a top luxury interior, appealing to a large clientele, given that the custom design began as a speculative build for the yard. Laura Pomponi, CEO and founder of the Ancona-based design studio in Italy, comments.

‘For the design approach, simplicity in architectural lines combined with contrasting materials and the proper use of light were brought together to create a timeless style with an elegant, homely feeling. We are very proud of the end result. The beautiful interior is exactly what we dreamed of thanks to the team effort of our dedicated Italian suppliers, Artisan Workshops, the Owner’s team, the Shipyard and the Interiors Contractor.’
