Skylark is a 16 meter, bluewater cruising yacht, designed to cross every ocean in comfort and safety. We will show you some of the features that makes the Amel 54 an ideal cruising yacht for a couple!

Great video.... keep them coming. I absolutely LOVE the Amel yacths... nice to see more vloggers/sailors sailing them... thanks for sharing.
Love the vessel ! Can’t wait to follow your adventures. Great video presentation !
Super sweet boat! Going to follow along.
Seriously great video work and the boat is a beauty.
Beautiful sailboat, absolutely love the interior finishes!
Thank you Ray!
Nice and original tour of your boat! I wish you all the luck on your travels.
Remember as Pilot's - 8 inches from Bottle to Throttle - I am pretty sure that is what the Reg says - LOL
Bloody BEAUTIFUL!!
Beautiful boat, beautiful polished couple.
Thank you!:)
Masterful editing, really well done! Can see all the ❤️ put into this!
Thank you!
Great video guys, boat looks fantastic!
Thank you!
More more more, please. We need this.
hahah definitely more coming!
Hey guys, just discovered your channel. Great videos, very well edited but more importantly: you guys seem super nice and authentic which is what I’ve been desperately trying to find on CZcams sailing channels for so long! So thanks for sharing! Love your fridge full of beers btw haha! ;) 🍻
Cheers from Germany, Kristina
Hi Kristina!! Thank you! I’m glad you are enjoying our channel and the beers in the fridge! Haha
You guys are awesome
Beautiful Boat 👍
Great video. I’ve just bought a new catamaran but if I had of stayed with a monohull, the next boat would have been an Amel. Safe travels
Saw you're post on utube sailing channels. Beautiful ⛵
7:55 super 👍👌🎈
Awesome video guys!
What a beautiful boat! I am so jealous! Sailing by fingertip? Oh my!
Thank you Rick! The fingertip sailing makes things so convenient!
Nice clever intro. Quite a crew aboard.that 54 :-). A couple of years ago I had the opportunity to view the Amel 64 at the Southampton boat show, all very similar to your 54. After owning a 54 you certainly wouldn’t get lost on the 64. I guess as the saying goes if it isn’t broke don't fix it and nothing in Amels design is broke. Not had the opportunity to check out the latest flagship 60 but I would hazard a guess its still a space you’d recognise. Anyhow, Amel 54, good boat, good choice and hope you have a lot of good sailing too. Thanks for the video, a nice 10 minute escape from a quarantined UK. Liked and Subscribed.
Thank you Andrew!! We love the Amel 54!
Amel yachts have always been a fav of mine since watching SV Delos, its nice to seem some improvements were made by Amel on this vessel, I cant say Iid buy anything else when I finally decide to pull the pin. Enjoying the videos, getting better with each one! sub'd
Thank you!
The perfect (house)boat for those who are powerboaters heart.
Nicely done
Great tour!
Thanks Jero!
Hi guys, Best video for an Amel tour!! The boat is fantastic congrat.

thank you!
The Amel 54 is a truly great boat. About the only one I'd sell my boat to change to. Yours is really well outfitted.
Those water tight doors. Of course you will never need them.... but.... the most dangerous incidents I've heard of (after fire, losing the mast, anchor dragging) is being pooped from behind. Those are likely the boats that disappear without a trace. Just keeping those doors closed when there's a following sea or mixed conditions could save everything. Of course the raised center cockpit makes this even less likely. And the water intake manifold instead of thru hulls is brilliant. (My boat has 12)
Wow!
Thank you Todd!
Absolutely love the detail of your videos as well as a casual style. Your floating home is superb and I hope to one day own an Amal. Keep being amazing and keep drinking beer. Hahahah
Thank you!! We will try our best 🍻😃
Great content! Just subscribed!
Beautiful boat and looking forward to following your adventures. A little hard to hear the voice audio...not sure if others are having the same issues.
Beautiful boat. Rad couple. Hope to drink a beer with you two someday.
Thank you for the video
Thank you!!
Nice vid guys! Take me to the Maldives pls?? Great surf there....swing by Singapore and get me out of here.
I wish we could!
MALDIVES? lets go
Nearly time to go!
You guys have one top of the line sailboats built and a dream of many sailors, like myself but way out of my budget, And that size! Those stainless lifelines say a lot about Amel boats. All the high amp items are relative because of the battery banks and because the engine is usually running when thusters and wnidlass ars used. Wiring gage is what counts then. You might want to consider ferrying 787s to storage, or returned to/from lease, for cash of course. Me, time for me to watch airplanes flying anovs from my boat. Congrats and fair winds.
Hi Mo! Thank you! We are really happy with Skylark and the high production quality of Amel!
Watertight hatches, unexpected and very cool. “Unsinkable like the Titanic” 😆
Which airline did y'all work for? I've been a pilot for 16 years now, I dream of doing this.
Wow! So glad to have found you guys! Great channel, I am a Delos tribe member since day 1. Amel boats are amazing a true sailing warrior! What year is your 54?
Thanks Keith! Our Amel 54 is from 2009
Wow.. It looks much newer than that. This is only my second day after finding your channel. But if I could the Amel would be my choice as well.
Happy sailing. 🇺🇸
Great tour, but you didn’t show the forward cabins....was really hoping to see how it differs from Sv Delos which has the V berth.
Sorry about that. You can check out more photos/layout on our website www.outsidewatch.com/about-skylark
The cabins on the 54 are very private and spacious. We have found it really quite comfortable for two couples, or you can even have a four people /family in the front and there is still ample room to move around and for storage.
@@OutsideWatch-Skylark oh nice 👍 thanks for replying. I’ll definitely check it out. Yeah your boat is my dream boat. I’ll have to make due with my cape dory for now
3:20 Bruh!
That vessel is remarkable....I'm surprised it docent open your beers for you as well. ROFLMAO 😂😂😂😂
I am new to your channel and just subscribed. You have a beautiful boat. Too bad all boat builders are not as proud as the Amel builder. Have you always preferred the mono hull or would you consider the a catamaran?
Safe sailing 🤗
Hi Jerry! Thank you, we appreciate your kind words! We enjoy catamarans as well, but we wanted an Amel 54 for it’s safe design and comforts! So far we have been happy with Slylark!
Hi guys I'm looking for cheoy Lee ketch 45 to 53 project is okay to if you know any please let me know thanks 👍🙏
Just realized that you guys bought the one parked in French Polynesia I think. Which checker did you guys use?
Nope! We bought her in Penang, Malaysia
Now you need a 74 on the keel.
Haha yes! Next time we haul out, a 747 is going on there! :)
Is this 240v or 120v? I am considering buying one but I have not been able to find any information on using it with NA appliances 120v
Amels are 220v. However, a lot of our American appliances work like laptops or iPhones since those are dual, and we are just careful and buy the appropriate hair dryer or blender when we need something for skylark.
Hopefully one day I can jump in a Amel
Is there any years or models that they were built better
Or they kept there quality up today
All Amels are great, it’s personal preference. We personally love the Amel 54, since it is has a classic look yet has stylish modern comforts!
Do u know if amel changed there quality over the years
@@joeldelamirande5792 they are pretty well built and they still up to date building them super robust and very good quality, that’s the reason they have a pretty good resale value. A new 50 well equipped would be over a $1 million and a new 60 way over $2 million
with the state of affairs in the aviation industry, i am curious if you plan to convert to full time livaboards, and do you have the means to do so? or is there a plan to return to flying?
thanks for the videos. i hope to one day fully retire on a sail boat :D
enjoying the content, new to the channel, hail from Canada in the prairies. ….. the weather here is still cold and snowy.
Thank you! Planning too much in these times is a difficult thing to do 🤣 however, we have been full time live a boards on Skylark for the past year and could continue to for a while longer. We will return to the sky as pilots with the right opportunity:) thank you for following us on our journey!
Hopefully you have beautiful spring weather soon!
You’re young. How did you come by this boat?
People drinking beer all day on an amel. Sounds like a youtube success story.
Damn right!! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
for a long time there was no video from you. I hope everything is fine with you?)
Thank you! There will be another video soon😍 All has been well for us, we have been flying lots!
Hey there just subscribed to your channel and love the Amel you are sailing on classic yacht really safe and a beauty to behold. Feel free to pull into Cape Town. If I may make a constructive critique, when you are arms length from your camera , a GoPro, I would imagine the sound becomes sketchy. Maybe a better Mike would be worth considering. Apart from the sound video is great and look forward to watching more vids from you guys. Really enjoy the technical stuff must be the pilots in you 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you! The sound quality we are going to work on improving. Unfortunately our mic stopped working as we began filming and it was super intermittent so we took it off. We are going to buy new equipment soon. I promise the sound will get better before we reach Cape Town! 🤣😀
Самая любимая лодка😊
You guys aren't supposed to have a boat that nice till you're in your 50s.
Dang, I should have become a commercial pilot.
Hi what year is your boat please
2009
Beautiful boat beautiful couple but that was too much beer publicity that I couldn’t keep watching it till the end.
I really like your video today and I love the Amel because of it`s centre cockpit design, by the way you should never answer your wife with I dunno, should be I`m not sure but I can find out for you 😀, Cheers.
Haha noted!!😂
Do you want to sell her?
Not anytime soon!! We love Skylark! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful boat. I hope to gawd the karaoke machine goes overboard. I feel an unsubscribe in the future. Thanks for the boat tour. It truly is a beautiful boat.
Haha karaoke machine hasn’t gone overboard yet! It’s been put to good use 😉
