Ocean pollution is a growing global concern, one that we at Damen Yachting take very seriously and proactively fight. Our #LOVEOUROCEANS campaign has evolved into a growing platform, showcasing many of our industry’s initiatives to stop the deterioration of Earth. 

 One such story is about the London to Monaco bike ride, where our team is raising money to support the ocean conservation efforts of the Blue Marine Foundation . This year, Giovanni Berati, Romke van der Linde, Raoul Slinger, Jacco van Luijk, Bibi Tattje, Peter Dijkwel, Richard Wagenaar and Michel Coens will cycle over 1,000 kilometers from Vlissingen, the Netherlands, to Monaco over the course of ten days. The team will spend countless hours training and preparing themselves to reach the finish line, all in support of our greatest inspiration: Respecting our Oceans.

Vlissingen to Monaco 2024

We are honoured to receive an award during the Yacht Style Awards 2024, held on the eve of the Singapore Yachting Festival. We excelled in the Superyachts 60-80 metres for our Amels 60 and Amels 80 Limited Editions range. 

With four Amels 60s now having been delivered, the fifth being handed over to her Owner this spring, and four more under construction, the series is set to quickly rise to the top and leave their mark in the superyacht hall of fame. 

Another design that will be sure to dominate the sea is of course our next generation Amels 80. With the first hull currently at our yard in Vlissingen, her launch in spring 2025 will be sure to make headlines everywhere.

Our Amels Limited Editions always take the spotlight with pride as they showcase our unparalleled craftsmanship and distinct legacy.

Yacht Style Awards 2024

Last week the eighth Amels 242 embarked on her sea trials, revealing her name to be NOME.

With a Flag blue hull and an Oyster white superstructure she will be sure to catch everyone’s eye as she remains quayside for final outfitting.

Exciting news: The fourth hull of the Amels 80 has been sold, scheduled for delivery to her Owner in 2027. The yacht, with an exterior design by Espen Øino, will boast a Sinot interior. All details regarding any specifications remain confidential. 

Jorrit Pilaar, Sales Manager at Damen Yachting, worked with the client throughout the sales process, in collaboration with Jan Jaap Minnema, sales broker at Fraser. “Within two years after the introduction of the series, the sale of the fourth hull of the Amels 80 series is a fact. I am looking forward to the journey ahead of us.” 

Introduced in 2022, the Amels 80 has been nothing short of successful, with the first of the series now being outfitted at our shipyard prior to her delivery in 2025.

The most recent Amels 200 in build has set sail from our shipyard today. This 60-metre Amels Limited Editions which was sold in May 2021, will now embark upon her maiden voyage ready for a private itinerary with her Owner. 

She is the third superyacht delivered from the iconic Amels 200 design which initially started out as the Amels 188 and includes VOLPINI 2 (Amels 188), STELLA M (Amels 200) and MOONSTONE (Amels 200). Together they form a unique group of 60-metre Amels Limited Editions featuring the iconic Tim Heywood exterior design. 

Tom Oomkens, Project Manager at Damen Yachting, notes, "It was so rewarding to see the Owners on board for the christening and blessing ceremony and enjoy that their unique vision became reality. They were very impressed with the magic we did in the time we had. The pride in their eyes made us forget all the hard work and long hours. For me, again I say this is the most beautiful yacht we've made, but I seem to say that with every delivery. These results would never have been achieved if we hadn't had a super well-oiled team and a lot of craftsmanship on board. Proud of the end product, grateful to the team and the team spirit!"

“By introducing the Xplorer 80, we have further established our ability to create a perfect crossover superyacht. She combines luxury, expedition, capability, high-spec shipbuilding and everything in-between.” Rose Damen, Managing Director Damen Yachting.
