DEEP BLUE is a magnificent 55-metre motor yacht built by the distinguished Dutch shipyard Amels in 2014 and comprehensively refitted in 2024 to the highest contemporary standards. One of the most acclaimed yachts in the Amels Limited Editions fleet, she combines timeless Dutch engineering with warm, inviting interiors and an exceptionally generous layout that makes her one of the most comfortable yachts in her class.
The freshly completed 2024 refit has elevated every aspect of DEEP BLUE, from updated technical systems to refreshed interior furnishings, ensuring she offers the very latest in onboard luxury while preserving the understated elegance for which Amels is renowned. Her exterior lines are unmistakably Amels, a sleek and purposeful profile that turns heads in every harbour.
At the heart of her appeal is an extraordinary indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The expansive aft deck provides a magnificent al fresco dining area, dressed with plush seating and cushions in rich tones of red and cream, framed by views that stretch to the horizon. It is the ideal setting for leisurely Mediterranean lunches or candlelit suppers under the stars.
The main salon is a triumph of interior design, a generous volume flooded with natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows. Rich wood panelling, deep sofas upholstered in crimson and ivory, and an impeccable attention to detail create an atmosphere of refined warmth. Above, the upper salon offers a more intimate setting with panoramic views, lighter tones and a sophisticated seating area perfect for cocktails or quiet conversation.
A dedicated master study provides a private retreat for work or reflection, with a handsome wooden desk, ocean views and carefully chosen artwork that reflects the yacht’s cultured character.
DEEP BLUE accommodates up to ten guests in six beautifully appointed staterooms. The master suite is a generous private sanctuary with a king-size bed, rich wood panelling and an en-suite bathroom finished in the finest materials. Two double staterooms and a convertible double-twin cabin each offer their own distinct character, while the twin stateroom provides a cheerful and comfortable retreat. A professional crew of thirteen ensures that every detail is attended to with warmth and discretion.
Built on a steel hull with an aluminium superstructure, DEEP BLUE is powered to a maximum speed of fifteen knots and a comfortable cruising speed of thirteen knots, with a range that allows extended Mediterranean itineraries without compromise. Her displacement hull delivers the smooth, stable ride that is the hallmark of the Amels breed, making her equally suited to open-water passages and sheltered anchorages.
The 2024 refit also brought her already impressive amenity suite up to date. Stabilizers at anchor ensure comfort in all conditions, while a full selection of water toys and tenders allows guests to explore the coastline at their leisure.
Whether cruising the Amalfi Coast, anchoring in the crystalline bays of Croatia, or making a stately entrance into Monaco for the Grand Prix, DEEP BLUE offers a charter experience that is both effortlessly luxurious and genuinely comfortable. Her combination of Dutch build quality, a freshly refitted interior, six generous staterooms and an attentive crew of thirteen make her a superlative choice for discerning charterers seeking space, style and substance.
Available for charter from 310,000 euros per week, DEEP BLUE represents outstanding value at the top end of the 55-metre class. She is an Amels through and through: understated, impeccably built, and designed for those who appreciate the very finest things in life.
