Largest Limited Editions
Emerging into the light is the first Limited Editions Amels 212, the largest yacht yet produced with the Dutch shipyard’s Limited Editions formula. Managing director Rob Luijendijk comments: “We pioneered the concept with the Amels 171 and 177, and now we expand the range to the Amels 212, and soon 242.” She is planned to be displayed at the 2011 Monaco Yacht Show.
Her sculpted, feminine form was created by Tim Heywood, while Andrew Winch’s interior complements the Heywood exterior perfectly. At 1503 GT, the yacht features two VIP cabins on the bridge deck, each with sliding-window access to a private balcony. A centrally-located glass elevator makes for easy and elegant access to all parts of the yacht, including the ‘wet feet’ bar on the sun deck and the beach club in the stern. There is ample storage for a range of beach toys and two 8.5m tenders.
The delivery is one of ten projects under construction, and the yard in Vlissingen is buzzing with activity, the facility operating at 100% capacity. Due for launch a year after her sistership is the second Amels 212. Hull No.2 is being fitted with a grand owner’s deck, demonstrating the flexibility of layout and interior.
