Set to head to the Caribbean, Satemi features an exterior adapted from Espen Øino’s original design and an interior by Studio Indigo.
Damen Yachting has delivered the 197ft Satemi, the fourth hull in the Amels 60 series. The 60m, 830GT yacht will remain quayside at the Damen Yachting shipyard in the Netherlands for a few weeks before departing on her maiden voyage to the Caribbean.
“It has been great to see how all parties involved have pulled together and have put in so much effort during this busy project,” said Danker Rijk, Damen Yachting’s Project Manager, who has managed Satemi throughout her build. “The result of their work speaks for itself; the yacht looks stunning. We hope that the owners will enjoy stepping on board for the first time this year.”
The Amels 60 has an exterior design by Espen Øino, but inspired by the customisations made to the second hull, Satemi features elongated window styling. Features include a sun deck, large swim platform and a foredeck with space for a 9m tender.
The custom interiors have been created by Studio Indigo, which was responsible for the original Amels 60 concept interior design. As well as 13 crew, the yacht can accommodate 12 guests in six cabins including an owner’s suite with folding balcony, his and her bathrooms, plus a dressing room.
Tassos Papantoniou of Torrance Yachts, which represents the owners, said: “The owners have been involved with the build for the past 24 months and have been able to set the interior exactly as they want it. They’ve spared no expense ensuring that their yacht is specified to the very highest standards – everything from the tenders to the dinnerware, it all results in a spectacular outcome.”
Satemi’s advanced equipment and technology includes an IMO Tier III-compliant hybrid power and propulsion system. Captain Mattia Dzaja said: “I’ve reviewed the system specification, and I am impressed. The benefits of this system and the reduced environmental impact are obvious, but what I love most is the additional safety it will provide us when we’re cruising.
“Everyone that is part of the Amels ‘family’ is super passionate. They believe in what they’re doing and are led by Rose Damen, whose enthusiasm for the brand is evident and is an inspiration to the entire industry.”
