Rose Damen, managing director at Damen Yachting, commented, “We are incredibly pleased to be sharing the news that the first Amels 80 has sold. This new Limited Editions design really reflects our continuous drive to adapt and evolve to ensure that we continue to reshape our pedigree, experience, and know-how for future generations.”

Burgess represented the owner in the sale of this brand new Amels design, which was unveiled to the industry earlier this year.

Ed Beckett, head of new build sales at Burgess, commented, “We are delighted to have worked as a team here at Burgess to provide our client with a seamless experience. After sourcing the right new build, the team has now been instructed to provide technical services and act as the project manager for the entire build process.”

Espen Øino, exterior designer for the Amels 80, said, “The Amels 80 is a design that will not age. Her modern strong lines will look as good in 10 years as the day she departs the yard. She is a big ship, full of features, with an impressive interior volume at 2,175 Gross Tonnage.”

Damen continued, “We very much look forward to continuing the build journey with our client and the team at Burgess. This is a proud moment indeed for everyone who has been involved in the project so far.”
