For over 60 years, Chantiers AMEL in La Rochelle has been cultivating a rare passion: designing and building exceptional sailing yachts. Each vessel that leaves our workshops embodies a unique combination of craftsmanship, technical innovation and respect for the sea.

At AMEL, we believe that perfection comes from precision, patience and passion. Our teams of carpenters, electricians, engineers, riggers, upholsterers and others work hand in hand to offer much more than just a sailing yacht: a safe, elegant and sustainable sailing experience. 

Beyond performance, the AMEL spirit is above all a corporate culture based on transmission, rigour and a taste for a job well done. It is a collective expertise, nurtured by committed men and women who are proud to perpetuate a tradition of French excellence in the service of offshore yachting.

Each AMEL is the promise of a serene voyage, respectful of the elements, guided by a passion for the sea.
