First Delivery of 2024 Complete

We are pleased to announce the delivery of the Amels 60 SATEMI. This 60-metre superyacht is the fourth yacht from our next generation Amels Limited Editions design and the first of our scheduled deliveries for 2024. SATEMI will remain quayside at our main shipyard in the Netherlands for a few more weeks before departing on her maiden voyage straight to the Caribbean for a busy season combining charter and private use.

Setting Sail for New Horizons

We are proud to announce the departure of the third Amels 60, KHALIDAH. Crafted with precision, passion, and the utmost attention to detail, KHALIDAH represents the epitome of luxury and innovation. It has been an absolute honour for our entire team to bring her to life, and we can't wait for her to grace the seas with elegance.

A Fond Farewell to KHALIDAH

The finalists for the highly anticipated Design & Innovation Awards 2024 have been unveiled, and our exceptional Amels 60, ENTOURAGE, is set to take center stage in this prestigious event. The excitement is palpable as we gear up for the grand unveiling at the 2024 Superyacht Design Festival in Kitzbühel on January 28, 2024.

ENTOURAGE, the second hull of the award-winning Amels 60 series, stands as a true testament of excellence in both design and build, setting the bar for luxury on the water.

The festival is anticipated to provide a noteworthy platform for maritime enthusiasts, and we are honoured to have ENTOURAGE as a finalist, showcasing her innovation and artistry in the realm of superyachts. Keep an eye out for more updates as we continue our journey toward the forefront of design and innovation in the world of luxury seafaring.

ENTOURAGE: Finalist for Design & Innovation Awards 2024 

Today, the Netherlands welcomed the first Amels 80 for outfitting at our Vlissingen shipyard, set to be her new home until completion in 2025. The Amels 8001 was launched from her build facility in Galati, Romania, on 27th September 2023 and was towed to the Netherlands for outfitting.

Measuring 80 metres in length, this Amels 80 is the first of the most recent designs to evolve from our Amels Limited Editions range. In keeping with the Amels DNA, designer Espen Øino created a holistic and modern exterior design.

The esteemed Owner has opted for a tailor-made interior, collaborating with the talented Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design to bring the Amels 8001 to life in a spectacular way. With a unique colour palette and natural materials, Sean Bianchi, partner at Burgess, predicts the Amels 80 to be one of the standout yachts entering operation in 2025, pushing the boundaries of our Limited Editions series to the maximum.

At Damen Yachting, our legacy of perfecting Limited Editions superyachts reaches new heights with the Amels 80.

Arrival of the Amels 8001 in Vlissingen

Today we proudly delivered the third Amels 60 superyacht, named KHALIDAH. The 60-metre Amels Limited Editions, now handed over to her Owner, has opted to take up port with us at the Amels Headquarters in Vlissingen City until final departure. The onward itinerary of the Amels 60 KHALIDAH is yet to be confirmed by the Owner.

KHALIDAH features custom interiors by Winch Design that emulate a home on the water for her Owner with light materials, woods, scattered pops of colour, artistic elements and high-tech lighting and entertainment solutions.

For the final stages of the build and the operational management of KHALIDAH moving forward, the Owner has appointed Deeside Maritime. “I have worked on a number of Amels new builds over the years and have great experience of working with the Damen Yachting team and their fantastic technical build platform and operational performance. It was this experience and knowledge that the Owner and family office were looking for when appointing someone to not only oversee the crucial final stages of the build but to take the operational management of the yacht forward beyond delivery,” says Nick Flashman, Director & Founder Deeside Maritime and Owner’s Representative. “Today’s delivery represents one of the more significant milestones as, together with the yard and the Owner’s team, we mark the move from build towards onboard enjoyment.”

The Amels 60 is focused on offering the ultimate onboard experience with the freedom it offers in areas such as the Sun Deck, Swim Platform and the Owner’s Suite with its folding balcony, en-suite and dressing room. Additionally, the yacht features space for a 9-metre tender on the foredeck. With six staterooms in total, the Amels 60 can accommodate up to 12 guests overnight with additional space for 12 crew, plus the Captain.

“This proven hybrid system currently offers the best solution to reduce harmful emissions, reduce noise and vibrations while benefiting from lower fuel and maintenance costs. It also allows you to cruise up to a certain speed without using the main engines, solely cruising on the generators,” says Joppe Osté, Project Manager at Damen Yachting.  

Amels 60 KHALIDAH delivered

This week we celebrated two milestones with the launch of two new Amels Limited Editions superyachts: the 74-metre Amels 242 [https://www.amelsyachting.com/fleet/project-24208] and the 60-metre Amels 200 [https://www.amelsyachting.com/fleet/amels-200-03].

With more than 50 Amels Limited Editions yachts now at sea, this is the first time in our history that two superyachts have been launched on the same day. The craftsmen and women at our headquarters in Vlissingen City, the Netherlands, uphold the yard’s legacy for building on schedule and are to thank for this historic achievement.


TIMELESS SEMI-CUSTOM SUPERYACHTS

The pair feature customised timeless Amels Limited Editions exteriors by legendary designer Tim Heywood. A desirable offering of the semi-custom Amels Limited Editions range is the Owner’s ability to choose their own interior. While unconnected, both Owners opted to commission Winch Design to create two unique superyachts with standout interior designs.

The classic Amels Limited Editions are considered collectors’ items in the superyacht world, and the next-generation editions – the Amels 60 and Amels 80 – continue this powerful legacy.


THE EIGHTH AMELS 242

For the Owner of the just-launched Amels 242, an eye-catching exterior colour scheme was one of the top items on his wish list. Steering away from the traditional all-white style, the Owner landed on a Flag blue hull and an Oyster white superstructure with the various vertical lines and stretches of windows standing out in a unique dark grey colour.   

Winch Design took the blue exterior colourway and incorporated it into multiple elements throughout the interior. As guests enter through the main entranceway, they are met with a wall of semi-precious agate blue stones. To match, there are various blue marbles onboard, as well as blue mosaics scattered through the Wellness Area.

Other standout features include a dedicated Owner’s Deck with a Jacuzzi, a large aft swimming pool, Lower Deck Wellness Space and flowing spaces. Up to 12 guests can stay overnight in six staterooms and enjoy the unique dining and entertaining layouts on her multiple decks.

“The Owner wanted something different, and that is certainly what he has achieved, especially with the variety of marbles,” says Peter Dijkwel, Project Manager at Damen Yachting. “This Amels Limited Editions superyacht is a great testament to the range and its flexibility – we can make anything work with this platform. That said, we couldn’t have done it without the consistent and positive cooperation with the Owner’s representative. This yacht has been created entirely on schedule and will be delivered on time on 1st June 2024.”


THE FOURTH AMELS 200

The uniqueness of the fourth Amels 200 superyacht lies in her Owner’s customisation choices. The Owner added a balcony to the Main Deck and exterior bars on every level. This Amels 200 at sea will stand out with her customised Whisper Grey hull – a colour which is subtly repeated in the exterior curves and arches, particularly around the superstructure.

“This yacht perfectly reflects the Owner’s unique vision,” explains Tom Oomkens, Project Manager at Damen Yachting. “There are many great details, for example, the windbreakers have been upgraded to feature a dark grey tone to mimic the windows. The Owner had many exciting design ideas and is experienced – which benefitted the project hugely.”
