The first of several superyacht launches by the Dutch yard AMELS has taken place with the unveiling of the 62.5 meters AMELS 206.
The striking motor yacht comes from the boatbuilder's Limited Editions range and is going to be the first of three new-build deliveries being handed over to owners before the summer season begins.
Fraser Gow was in charge of the yacht's build and he said: "It's a wonderful build milestone seeing her outside and everyone's done an exceptional job, particularly on the finish which can be appreciated now she's outside.
"We are all excited to commence sea trials and commissioning her systems ahead of delivery."
The yacht features an elegant color scheme that has been specified by the owner, who has worked in close collaboration with Tim Heywood on the stylish and smooth-looking exterior design along with the AMELS in-house design team.
The AMELS 206 features a unique interior
With a light grey hull and a white superstructure highlighting her long lines from the extended swim platform of 29sqm to the scimitar bow, the AMELS 206 features a unique interior created by Laura Sessa, who worked alongside AMELS' interior specialists.
There are two VIP suites on the bridge deck along with signature round windows in the owner's suite. On the lower deck, there are four guest cabins and two VIP staterooms on the bridge deck.
There is also room for two tenders of up to 8 meters and three jet skis in the forward enclosed store. She has a top speed of 16.5 knots and a range of 5,000 miles when cruising at 13 knots.
The motor yacht also features a large entertaining area of 35sqm on the sundeck with opulent facilities, including a Teppanyaki grill and a Jacuzzi. The sundeck has a large spa pool forward and a large sunbathing area towards the stern, complete with sun pads.
The motor yacht was launched using the RoFlo method, and she is the first of three new builds that will be launched this year.
The boatbuilder is also undertaking several refits, including a Damen yacht support vessel plus two Damen SeaXplorers.
