The hull of the 80-metre superyacht ‘Route 66’ has arrived at Damen Yachting’s shipyard in Vlissingen, where outfitting will take place. Delivery is scheduled for 2028.
The hull was built and launched at the shipbuilder’s yard in Galați, Romania. Joppe Osté, project manager at Damen Yachting, highlighted the close cooperation between the teams in Romania and the Netherlands.
‘Route 66’ is part of the Amels Limited Editions range, which uses a standard platform that can be tailored to each owner’s requirements. According to the shipyard, the hybrid propulsion system and optimised hull form are designed to reduce fuel consumption and make the yacht quieter under way.
Espen Øino designed the exterior, while Sinot Yacht Architecture & Design is responsible for the interiors. The yacht will feature a 200 m² sun deck, a beach club open on three sides, a private owner’s deck and a 6.5-metre swimming pool.
Amels has delivered more than 50 yachts in its Limited Editions range to date.
