Voted Boat of the Year 2000 by Cruising World magazine and described by judges to be 'as stately as a small ship', take a step on board and it is easy to see why. Beautifully finished from stem to stern, with attention to detail going far beyond mere aesthetics, the Amel Super Maramu 2000 is an exceptional feat of engineering. Built to French Maritime Marine Offshore Category #1 standards, the hull is one piece, extremely strong solid laminate fiberglass for hull, keel and skeg with four watertight bulkheads and fiberglass laminate deck with balsa core..

From the ergonomic helm position where every aspect of the boat can be managed, through to the comfortable and spacious staterooms, nothing has been left to chance with every need catered for.
