Damen Yachting has announced the sale of the eighth hull in its Amels Limited Editions series, known internally as Amels 6008. The 60m superyacht is currently undergoing final outfitting at the Damen Yachting shipyard in Vlissingen in the Netherlands ahead of its scheduled 2026 delivery.

Jorrit Pilaar, Damen Yachting’s Commercial Executive EMEA, said: “The sale of this latest Amels 60 is a great example of our collaborative approach. This owner was able to take a proven platform and, through a close partnership with us, customise the yacht, even though they came in at a late stage. This project truly showcases the flexibility and appeal of our Limited Editions concept.”

Following Memories, delivered in mid-2025, Amels 6008 is the second hull from the series to feature interiors by Harrison Eidsgaard. However, Ben Harrison, Director of Harrison Eidsgaard, described the design for Amels 6008 as notably different from the British studio’s first project for the shipyard.

“Marking a shift from the natural hues of the previous Amels 60 we designed, this yacht is really something different – an elevated level of sophistication and glamour with navy accents and rich walnut,” Harrison said.

Exteriors for the Amels 60, which has a 10.4m beam, are by Espen Øino and feature the series’ characteristic trapezoid windows. Amels 6008 has a volume of 853GT, and accommodation includes cabins for up to 12 guests and 13 crew members, with the owner’s suite offering a fold-down private balcony.

As well as the Amels 60’s distinctive sundeck, features on Amels 6008 include a jacuzzi, a touch-and-go helipad, and a generous waterside beach club. Powered by a low-emission hybrid MTU propulsion system, the superyacht has a top speed of 15.5 knots and a cruising range of up to 4,500nm at 13 knots.
