A quick glimpse aboard CLUV - One of the last Amel 55’s... we had the great luck to go for sale in Seattle… And even though there was very little wind it was so great to be aboard one of these fine vessels
Test sailing an Amel 50

Our test sail on the awesome Amel 50 last year as part of our factory visit and our decision to pick the Amel 50 as our dream boat!
Why did you sell her so quickly?
Divorce is expensive
She's fantastic ❤
Congrats! Beautiful boat.
Why did they elect a bolt-on instead of an integral keel?
Beauty! 🥰⛵
Very beautiful. I wanted to ask. Can you delete all the steel line of the jib, and use the jenoa as a self tacking jib ? Have calm seas and wonderful sansets...!
Hey, you're the dude who helped Brady and Blue. Small world...
Indeed!
So beautiful asymmetric sails!
A bunch of Amels there. That's in La Rochelle?
Love to see an update
Thank you for presenting the construction of these wonderful yachts. There are so many hours of work put into it, and the result is an AMEL, in my opinion one of the best blue water boats.
0:02 How tall is the man in the cap? He has headroom in the cockpit to stand without stooping.
Please do a new video!!
Hello you just sailed by my home on Jamestown and I was wondering if my wife and I my have a look at your beautiful yacht. We are looking at a Amel 55 or maybe a 50 . I am on FB as Tom Chiginsky or Instagram as TCANDOLLIE. Thanks for any consideration you might give my request.
Hello. We just ordered an Amel 50. What is the good the bad and ugly of the boat. Down side we have to wait til 2023 to get it
No downside - the company has been great and has continued to make minor improvements throughout the production cycle making the boats better and better. Check all the boxes. Get the lithium. 🙌🏼👍🏼
@@JustinmaguireIII thanks so much. Just in case …. If you want to sell your boat, please contact me. Build date for us is very long
The last AAirpass offered by American Airlines sold for $3M in 2004 (companion pass an additional $2M). The Amel 50 is a bargain in comparison.
Can you please share with us what was the final cost, including any tax for your Amel 50 with the options you chose? I know the manufacturers suggested base price is about $1.2M USD. Thanks
About 1.4… but prices do change and the relationship of the dollar to the euro do too. This is one of the most lavishly spec’d 50’s so your mileage may vary.
@@JustinmaguireIII Thanks for sharing. Looks like you had good timing on dollar strength versus EURO also. Based on time of this video.
Amel is the best sailboat for blue water sailing
cant believe they shot this vertical
I know.. but I guess beggars can’t be choosers. At least they sent me something!
This is DEFINITELY money better spent than buying residential real estate (even in lovely California).
Have you opted for induction cooktop and oven? No gas on the boat?
Yes. I got the new GN Espace Induction stove/oven.
Great choice of interior.....wonderful vessel.
Are you sailing her home or using a transport ship? Congrats on one of the finest sailing yachts on the water.
She’s being shipped over
Nice pump out. That is great.
Is your second job a late night DJ? Great radio voice. Absolutely amazing boat, we watch with a healthy chunk of envy or maybe just inspiration to get there too :-) Enjoy
Hahah! I’ve been told I have a radio voice! Thank you - yeah - we are super pumped. Getting her back to the US in covid with all the craziness of the shipping and logistics community has proved challenging. But we will finally step aboard in mid May - sooon!
Is this Casey Kasem?😊
The most beautiful 50 foot sailboat ever built. Thank you for sharing, she's a pleasure to look at. I wish you all the best with her :)
Thank you! I’m sooo excited to step aboard her!
@@JustinmaguireIII I can imagine... It must be like going to heaven!
Amel make very low quality hulls.
What underpins that belief?
I’d like to know that too......
@@Kivackis that’s simply not factually accurate / true.
I forwarded this to Amel. They say they’ve contacted you directly.......I’d have contacted you via my lawyer.....
@@brettharrison2237 I would hope not.
Great video nice boat.
Beautiful vessel. Safe travels.
Hello from sunny México, What speed did the sailboat reach in the video? And how Man y wats do the solar panels have ?
I wasn’t on her for this test run as I can’t get to France 😓... #covid. So I don’t know the specifics although I’m awaiting a report on how she performed relative to her polar diagram. In terms of solar - 1175W.. she has 800ah of 24v lithium batteries. 😎
Beautiful 👍🏻
Beautiful boat. Shoot with the phone horizontal...
Sadly I didn’t get to shoot the pictures as I cannot get to France right now so these were shot and sent to me...
She is a beaut!
What a beauty! Congratulations and thanks for the videos.
Thank you! Learning how to do this CZcams thing as I’m a total newbie.
@@JustinmaguireIII it will be great to see your boat out sailing in future.
Cant wait until you are back in your home port.
Thanks! Soon.. this whole covid thing has made it all harder!
Beautiful boat. Sail in good health with the wind at your back.
Thank you!
Congratulations! are the dark stripes on the hard top solar panels?
Yes - it’s an option they offer. 575 watts of solar on the hard top. 🙌🏼🙌🏼
In 50 seconds. ? Why bother making a video and posting it
this was literally the first thing i've ever posted and was meant to be a test... and i figured it might be interesting for someone to see what it's like to see one of these boats under way as i've not seen that. But thank you for the helpful comment.
what was that video about?
Lovely
Woow woow 😍💋 💝💖❤️
Awesome 😍💋 💝💖♥️❤️
Thanks Odin - I couldn't be more excited and i wanted to share as it's often difficult to get really good tours of these boats - especially in a world without boat shows #covid.
looks a little different than at a boat show :) what a fantastic boat...
Thanks Carl! She's world ready for sure. :)
Are these boats insulated like the Swedish boats ?
Foam cored above the waterline just like the HR
Sexy
Approaching BERTH...WAY TOO FAST.
Well it’s the amel team bringing her in directly after her launch... I suppose they know what they’re doing, but yes I’d likely be coming in more slowly. 😉
Wow Sausalito, my area also never seen any Amel out there. Best blue water sailing boat money can buy well done and good winds for all of you!
She’s not here yet! It’s going to be a bit before she arrives here but she’ll be at clipper when she does arrive. Covid slows everything down. 😓
@@JustinmaguireIIIGreat! Good luck with all the work and logistics. 2021 is on the next corner! Keep going
Sausalito, never seen you there. Best blue water boat money can buy, well done and good winds for all of you!
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing this experience.
You're welcome.. I'll eventually make a better one - this was super fast as a means of sharing when i got the pictures!
Congratulations
