Amel Amel 50
About this yacht
The Amel 50 represents a refined evolution in bluewater cruising, combining proven offshore capability with thoughtful design that prioritizes both performance and comfort. Since her introduction in 2017, this 16.5-meter center-cockpit sailing yacht has established herself as a leading choice for serious cruisers, with over 100 hulls delivered worldwide—a testament to her versatility and reliability. Built to CE Category A certification, the Amel 50 is engineered for open ocean passages while remaining accessible enough for coastal exploration and weekend getaways. Her moderate 2.15-meter draft strikes an ideal balance between stability at sea and access to shallow anchorages, expanding your cruising grounds from remote island chains to protected harbors. What distinguishes this cruising sailboat is her exceptional ease of handling. Amel's decades of experience in creating voyaging yachts shows in every system—designed so couples can manage the boat confidently, while still offering the performance to satisfy experienced sailors. The center-cockpit layout provides security offshore and generous accommodation below, with three well-appointed cabins sleeping up to ten guests. Whether you're planning extended bluewater passages, seasonal coastal cruising, or simply want a capable sailboat that adapts to your lifestyle, the Amel 50 delivers remarkable flexibility. She's equally at home on a tranquil weekend anchorage as she is crossing oceans, offering owners genuine freedom to choose their own adventure. In 2018, the Amel 50 earned recognition as European Yacht of the Year in the Luxury Cruiser category—an independent validation from marine journalists across Europe of her exceptional design and execution. Her fiberglass construction meets exacting standards, while her layout and systems reflect Amel's commitment to safety, comfort, and innovation that has defined the shipyard for generations.
