A sea trial was recently conducted for the latest yacht in the Amels 60 series. The sixth yacht hull in the line made her oceanic debut with a successful trial. The series has set new standards in the industry for semi-custom yachts after the Amels 60 design was launched in 2019.

A semi-custom yacht provides yacht owners with the ability to completely customize the interior yacht layout and design of their superyacht within the framework of a manufactured hull. This allows owners to retain the exterior aesthetic of a particular model while possessing a bespoke yacht interior that fits their unique personal needs.

“Seeing [Amels 6006] on the water is always a sight to behold for everyone involved,” said Paul Deurloo, Damen Yachting’s Project Manager. “The successful collaboration of so many talented and passionate people has brought us to this milestone, making her first sea trial extra special.”
