Project WITCHCRAFT, the second Amels 60, has left the Amels and Damen Yachting drydock in the Netherlands. This milestone signals the beginning of her final build phase before delivery to her owner later this year.
The much-anticipated launch of Amels 6002 finally took place at Damen Yachting’s headquarters in Vlissingen. This new Amels 60 Limited Editions design has generated a lot of interest, and onlookers were given a first glimpse of the 60-meter yacht’s bright and light color scheme. The exterior styling of the signature windows has been customized to meet the Owner’s requirements. Moran Yacht & Ship have represented the Owner throughout the build and explained what this significant moment meant to them.
“We are truly excited to see Project WITCHCRAFT emerge from the finishing shed and into the water for the first time. This milestone is always a special moment in the construction schedule. Moran Yacht & Ship is very proud of the many customizations we could implement into this platform, which is a testament to the Damen Yachting engineering and production team. The entire Owner’s team is looking forward to the final stages of production and moving towards another successful delivery.”
The custom windows on Amels 6002 are a great example of how this new generation of Amels Limited Editions carries the concept forward. This innovative build approach provides opportunities for maximum customization while still delivering fast delivery, proven technical capabilities, and tried-and-tested naval architecture and sea-keeping capabilities.
Featuring an exterior design by Espen Øino, this Amels 60 continues Damen Yachting’s drive to deliver Limited Editions designed for the future. With a Gross Tonnage of 830 GT, she accommodates 12 guests and 12 crew. She features hybrid power and propulsion technology, and the overall design focalizes 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 even space for a 9-meter luxury tender to be stowed on the foredeck. The light and airy interior have been custom-designed to the personal requirements of the Owner by an Interior Designer of the Owner’s choice.
