A new chapter is dawning in the world of superyachts with the arrival of the newest Amels 60 unit at Damen Yachting in Vlissingen, the Netherlands.
On July 11, 2025, the ship’s hull arrived from Gdynia, Poland, and is about to enter the outfitting stage – the equipment and customization process that will transform the technical structure into a maritime work of art. Delivery is scheduled for 2027, and this limited edition promises to bring a balance between contemporary design, technical performance and timeless comfort.
The exterior of the superyacht bears the signature of the famous designer Espen Øino, a name that needs no introduction to the world of luxury boats. Its fluid, elegant yet firm line highlights both the ship’s naval performance and its iconic silhouette. With a length of 60 meters, a gross weight of 853 GT and the ability to receive 12 guests with a crew of 12 members plus captain, the Amels 60 is an imposing presence in any context.

Amels 60 with interior designed by Laura Sessa
The interior, however, is perhaps the most interesting novelty of this version. For the first time, Italian designer Laura Sessa brings her creative vision to the Amels 60 universe. Although his collaboration with Damen Yachting is not a new one, this is the first model in this series in which the interior bears exclusively his signature. The result promises to be a perfect fusion between Italian refinement and northern European functionality, promising a warm, elegant and highly personal interior space.
Joppe Osté, project manager at Damen Yachting, underlined the team’s enthusiasm to enter the equipping phase, expressing confidence in the collaboration with Laura Sessa’s team. For him, this stage marks an important moment in the life of the ship – the transition from technical plans and structures to a complete sensory universe, where every detail counts.
Amels Limited Editions, an industry standard
The Amels Limited Editions program, of which this facility is a part, has become an industry standard. With seven Amels 60 yachts already on the water, the series enjoys the appreciation of those who want a charter-ready, low-emission boat that resists ephemeral trends. It is, in fact, a manifesto for discreet innovation, sustainability and engineering artistry.
Looking beyond aesthetics, the Amels 60 integrates Damen’s latest innovations in naval architecture. It is aimed at owners who not only want a cruising platform, but also a sophisticated retreat, capable of offering a memorable life experience on board. It is the ideal yacht for those who want the privacy of an exquisite space and the performance of a ship ready for adventure.
Although the official launch is scheduled for 2027, there is already interest in the market for this unit. Those interested can contact the Damen team for more details about the purchase and customization. And for those looking for inspiration, the builder’s extensive portfolio and interviews with designers can be accessed online at amelsyachting.com and laurasessa.com.
The Amels 60 is not just a superyacht – it is a style statement and an investment in a way of life where sea, design and refinement meet in a harmonious symphony.
