Amels will present the first yacht of its 220 series at the MYS 2019. Originally known as project ‘Waka’, the 67-metre superyacht has been named Aurora Borealis, reflecting the timeless design and signature traces of British designer Tim Heywood.

The architecture is based on the design of the Amels 212, but is distinguished by new elongated decks, as well as a large bathing platform and beach club.

Winch Design created the Amel’s unique interior design, where along with large entertainment areas (with a total area of 1,150 m2), seven guest cabins are offered.
