The team at Amels and Damen Yachting together with Moran Yacht & Ship has sold a new 74-metre Amels 242 "Project SHADOW" for delivery in autumn 2021. The Tim Heywood designed yacht from the Dutch builder's Limited Editions range will be completed with a unique interior by Winch Design.

In the sale, Moran Yacht & Ship represented the Owners, who have been closely involved in tailoring the yacht to their personal requirements. The Amels 242 will feature a dedicated Owners Deck with foredeck jacuzzi, an increased capacity helicopter deck and will be equipped with the latest Tier III clean emissions power and propulsion package.

Moran Yacht & Ship's new build team will also supervise the completion and delivery of the yacht this year. This is the second 60-metre plus Amels superyacht signed by Moran Yacht & Ship in the last 12 months.

Damen Yachting Managing Director Rose Damen says, "We have a very challenging project to achieve all the Owners' requests in a short timeframe. However we know the boat very well and we have an excellent and experienced project team working on the yacht together with the Owners' team and our co-makers. I'm extremely confident that we will deliver another beautiful Limited Editions yacht on time and on budget for her Owners."

The Amels 242 is the sixth from the 74-metre design in the Limited Editions range.

The Amels Limited Editions range of superyachts offers a proven technical platform with custom interiors. The builder has delivered 40 Limited Editions yachts since 2005. The innovative business model of upfront investment in engineering and construction, while maximising customisation, represents the perfect balance between full custom and semi-custom - and reduces delivery time from several years to as little as a few months.
