Bilder Amelit I
Amelit is a 54 feet ketch. She is build and designed for long term crusing. Two-masted, with a protected cockpit from where all manoeuvres are controlled. She offers great comfort and safety for crews of 2 to 6 people. The AMEL 54 knows no limits, and the AMEL worldwide customers service will always be there to assist you.
Amelit is build in La Rochelle in France by Amel. She was delivered to me in May 2009.
