The 55 metre Amels motor yacht Serenity J has been sold with Camper & Nicholsons acting for the seller and Tommaso Chiabra of Royal Yacht International representing the buyer.
The Amels Limited Editions range, designed by Tim Heywood, is one of the most successful series of semi-custom boats on the water. Serenity J joined the fleet in 2014 as a 55 metre model and has enjoyed great success as a charter yacht. She has a steel and aluminium construction with a 9.4 metre beam, which allows for vast and versatile interiors.
Accommodation is for a total of 12 guests split between six cabins: a full-beam super-king master suite, two doubles and two convertible cabins and a standard twin cabin. She also has quarters for a crew of six.
Her contemporary interiors have been designed by Laura Sessa and make use of neutral tones with accents of colour, pairing light woods with leather trims.
The sky lounge features hues of blue with windows that wrap around three sides. Home to an 85-inch HD plasma screen, a sofa lounge and an upright piano, the area is well set up for entertaining guests and leads out to an al fresco dining area on the aft deck that seats 10.
Above is the sun deck, complete with a Jacuzzi, sun pads and sit-up sun pads. By night, this area can be transformed into a party deck with disco lights and a sound system. A second sun lounging space can be found down by the water's edge on the swim platform.
Serenity J is equipped with twin MTU 16V 2000 engines delivering a top speed of 15.5 knots and a range of 4,500 nautical miles when cruising at a more modest 13 knots. She was built to Lloyd's classification and is MCA compliant.
Serenity J was asking $29,500,000.
