Damen Yachting is proud to announce the launch of the first Amels 80, the latest addition to the highly successful Amels Limited Editions range.
This milestone marks the debut of a groundbreaking and all-new 80-metre superyacht design that redefines modern luxury. This is a bold new chapter in the Limited Editions story, where craftsmanship, innovation, and sustainability meet in perfect harmony.
Amels 80 is a superyacht shaped by nature, driven by innovation, and brought to life through generations of craftsmanship. Designed for Owners who look for more than just beauty, she delivers a unique blend of performance, sophistication, and enduring quality. This is a superyacht where heritage and forward-thinking design converge in a true evolution in the Amels lineage.
The build of this first Amels 80 has been managed by Burgess on behalf of the Owner following her sale in 2022, just six months after the introduction of the new Amels 80 design.
Sean Bianchi, Partner and Head of Burgess Technical Services: “We are delighted to see Amels 80, hull number 01 depart her construction dock and enter the commissioning and sea trials phase. This milestone marks the culmination of close collaboration between Damen Yachting, Sinot, and the Owner’s team in crafting a yacht that is truly one of a kind.
As the first 80m Limited Editions, this yacht has evolved into something truly extraordinary through the Owner’s vision and meticulous input. With her striking exterior lines and a bespoke interior like no other, we are proud to support both the Owner and the shipyard in bringing Amels 80, hull number 01 to life. Upon delivery, she is set to become an icon — instantly recognisable by her distinctive paintwork and exceptional design.”
