Damen Yachting has redelivered Amels refit Synthesis from its Amels build facility in Vlissingen. Originally delivered in 2021, this 74-metre Amels 242 is part of the Limited Editions range.

Following the refit period and redelivery, the yacht departed the Netherlands.

Michel Coens, Head of Refit & Services at Damen Yachting: ‘A refit is rarely just about change. It is about recognising the enduring value already present in a yacht and carrying that forward with care, precision and deep technical understanding. For Synthesis, returning to the yard where it was originally built brings a special depth to that process. With our knowledge of its design, engineering and build history, combined with the discipline and craftsmanship of a full-scale new build yard, we are able to help preserve its character while preparing her for the future.’
