Deep Blue

Charter guests who knew her as Serenity J will find the same yacht under a new name. She is a 2014 Amels 180 Limited Edition: Tim Heywood shaped the outside, and the Italian-flavoured rooms are the work of Alberto Pinto's studio with Laura Sessa. She changed hands in 2022, became Deep Blue, and had a refit in 2024.

The yard itself describes her as made for the social side of the Mediterranean, and the sun deck shows it. A central wet bar and a large Jacuzzi sit between sunbathing areas fore and aft. In the morning the same space becomes an outdoor gym with a Peloton bike, a Technogym treadmill and weights; after dark, with the loungers pushed aside, the lighting and sound system make it the place to dance. Few yachts of this length fit so many uses onto their highest deck.

Lower down, the sky lounge has an 85-inch screen for film nights, and the beach club at the stern opens straight onto the water. The toy store was renewed along with the refit: two new carbon Seabobs join three older ones, there are electric foils and an electric surfboard, and a floating platform docks the jet skis beside the stern. A 13.8-metre Technohull Omega 47 serves as chase boat for fast runs to the beach or to dinner, while a separate limousine tender handles calmer transfers. Interiors use soft neutral tones and light wood, a calm counterpoint to the activity outside.

Forward on the main deck, the owner's cabin stretches from side to side, with one more guest cabin on that level; the other four are on the lower deck, which keeps the plan simple for a family or a group of couples.

She suits friends or families with teenagers who want energy on board: training, toys, music after dinner. If you are after a remote passage or silence at anchor, her whole setup points the other way, and she cruises only in the Mediterranean.
