MIBS ‘23: Damen Yachting to Showcase Amels 180 STEP ONE

Between 16 and 20 February, visitors to the Show will have a chance to experience the expert craftsmanship of the Dutch superyacht’s highly successful Amels 180 series. The Amels Limited Editions are the product of generations of expertise in yacht building, combining proven technology with custom creativity. For Owners, this presents a unique opportunity to build their dream luxury superyacht with the assurance of proven platforms and a renowned team at Damen Yachting.

STEP ONE was first delivered by Damen Yachting in 2012, and will attend MIBS on the back of a recent $2.5 million refit which has given her a new lease of life. The refit included a full paint job, as well as completion of her 10-yeat survey, to ensure she continues to adhere to the highest standards of luxury and performance.

One of her standout features is her split-level sun deck, one of the largest for a yacht of this category, which offers shaded dining, a bar and BBQ, ample sunbathing spaces, and a Jacuzzi.

“We are delighted to be showcasing STEP ONE at the Miami Yacht Show,” said Jan van Hogerwou, Commercial Executive USA of Damen Yachting. “Fresh from her refit, she promises to impress with her spacious exterior and sophisticated, contemporary interior. STEP ONE is the perfect ambassador for the Amels Limited Editions philosophy.

“She demonstrated beautifully how proven technology can be tailored to unique requirements to create an elegant and timeless classic.”

STEP ONE is currently listed for sale by Y.CO for $33,700,000. Y.CO’s Max Bulley shared that: “The Miami International Boat Show is a great opportunity to visit STEP ONE and see her incredible onboard spaces for yourself. Her standout sun deck and spacious interior are key characteristics of the Amels 180 Limited Editions and STEP ONE is a great example of this successful model.”

Beyond the exhibition of STEP ONE, the Damen Yachting team will be in Miami to showcase the Yacht Support and SeaXplorer ranges, with scale models on display.

The extensive superyacht portfolio of Damen Yachting encompasses a holistic offering of different on water experiences suited to the preferences of each owner. The Yacht Support and SeaXplorer ranges exemplify Damen Yachting’s prowess in high-tech shipbuilding, with a platform primed to facilitate adventure on the water.
