The "Pangea" was delivered on 28 October 2025 in Vlissingen, the Netherlands. Jan van Hogerwou, Sales Manager for North America at Damen Yachting, emphasises the close collaboration with the owner and his team: "This project has been a true partnership from the start, built on trust, a shared vision and the pursuit of excellence. Seeing the yacht in the water is a proud moment not only for the owner, but for everyone at Damen Yachting who helped bring her to life." A look at the Amels 60.

The Amels 80 also features the brand's typical spacious sun deck with an extra-large Jacuzzi. The beach club opens onto the sea on three sides and houses a spa, gym, hammam and sauna. The glass floor of the 6.5 metre long pool on the main deck aft allows plenty of daylight into the wellness rooms.
A highlight on board is the private owner's deck, which extends over 517 square metres. Six additional cabins on the main deck offer space for a total of 14 guests in seven suites.

Uske was born just outside Volkswagen in 1970 and tested various small boats with sails through her boyfriend (now husband 😊) on a quarry pond. Her studies in Kiel took her to the Baltic Sea with boats of all kinds and eventually to a regatta from Hong Kong to Mauritius via the Academic Sailing Club. Her teacher training ended at the Burda School of Journalism in Munich instead of in the classroom and finally at Boote Exclusiv. After a long break and various stories about house building, she returned to Delius Klasing and has been filling the magazine with long stories about large ships ever since. A family-owned H-boat was quickly sold again as the mother realized that sailing with two small children was neither relaxing nor fun.
