The 60m superyacht market is enjoying possibly its strongest period, thanks largely to these two yachts.
The Amels 60, designed by Espen Oeino, is the replacement for the best-selling Amels 180, and delivers the same six-cabin, tri-deck layout wrapped up in a far sharper exterior design. With a volume of 830GT, the displacement hull will deliver speeds of up to 15 knots using hybrid propulsion, cruising between 11knots-14knots. As a crew-operated vessel capable of extended cruising, there is space for up to 13 crew in separate quarters. The Sanlorenzo 62Steel looks a very close competitor to the Amels 60 with a similar LOA, three exterior decks and six cabins, however, its beam of 11.8m is notably more than the Amels’ 10.4m, the extra 1.4m (8ft) partly explaining the Sanlorenzo’s far greater 1200GT of volume.
Performance levels are close, with a top speed of 16knots and the same cruising range of 11knots-14knots, but the bigger, heavier Sanlorenzo requires larger twin 2012hp engines to do so. As a full crew-operated yacht capable of serious cruising, the 62 Steel can accommodate up to 15 crew. Both yachts are so-called platform builds, mixing a proven and set exterior design with plenty of customisation across the interior and decks, as such the layouts you will see below may be changed, quite radically, by the buyer.
