Amel super maramu 53 review: cult boat, deservedly so.

Amels have all these unique differences that make you think, “That’s interesting – I haven’t seen that before.” Even in their marketing, they have a unique flair with words. They use “gently” and the interrogative instead of declarative. This cultured voice blends perfectly with what Amel yachts represent. But is Amel just trying to be different for different sake or are these touches really superior? At first they clearly have a French flair that lures you in. Do the features hold under scrutiny?

In 1965, Henri Amel opened Amel Shipyards in La Rochelle, France. He was known as le Cap’tain and had a unique style which is the continuing foundation of Amel’s excellence. His real name was not Amel, but after fighting in WWII in Africa, he declared that the person he once was did not exist anymore and so took the name Amel. He was a forerunner of fiberglass, bluewater sailboats producing 36 Kirk, 41 Euros, 52 Meltem designs. This moved onto the 41 Sharki and 46 Maramu in the late 1970’s and 53 Mango in the 80’s. In the late 1980’s, Amel moved to a 46 Santorin and the subject of this review the 53 Super Maramu, an evolution of the 53 Mango design. In April of 2005, le Cap’tain passed away four days shy of his 92nd birthday. These days the Amel 54 is their only production model. They are building hull 1 of a 64 Amel in 2010. The company is 100% employee owned and has produced more 50-foot ocean cruising boats than any other manufacturer.

First Impressions The Super Maramu has a soft raked bow coupled with a straight sheer that declines steadily from stem to a sugar scoop stern. The hull is of moderate beam at 3.5 length to beam ratio. The cabintrunk runs from the foredeck to far aft. A plastic overlay over the portholes gives the cabin trunk a one-piece look and sexy French style. The sidedecks are faux teak – a distinctive feature. The hard dodger is an easy way to pick out Amels. Just below the sheer is a thick red rubber rubrail bolted to the hull through a stainless striker strip. These ketches have a tall two spreader main mast and smaller mizzen. Underneath, Henri Amel was one of the first to combine a fin keel and full skeg hung rudder. The keel bottom is flat and wide enough for her to stand on. But, of course you should block up like usual. Some notable differences to the older Mango 53 are a lower profile cabintrunk and the sugar scoop stern aft. The Mangos had a counter stern.

Construction I like how Amel does their hull and deck joint. The hull is solid fiberglass of bi-axial cloth layers including the skeg and stub keel. The deck is cored with Balsatek. To join these, they place the deck on the hull while the hull is still in the mold. Then, Amel fiberglasses the hull from the outside and inside to the deck. This procedure eliminates the need for a traditional hull-deck joint. It is one of the features that makes you wonder. In this case, the procedure really adds value here and makes sense. The end result are traditional bulwark style gunwales without any mechanical fasteners or 5200. An Amel is really one piece.

As I perfectionist I never like when builders use iron instead of lead and especially with an external keel. Amel uses mostly high quality techniques, but the only reason for using lower quality cast iron instead of lead is to reduce cost. Lead is superior in every way. Lead gets the VCG lower, absorbs collisions better, and is more resistant to corrosion. The only thing I can say and pretty persuasively is that this trade-off makes an Amel more reasonably priced than an Oyster or Hallberg Rassy. The chainplates mount outboard, tuck under the external rubrail, and bolt through the hull. Amel brags that you can pick her up by her chainplates. Amels come with a retractable bow-thruster in the foc’sle.

What To Look For “Either you buy in 100% or don’t go near Amels,” says one owner. More than any other, Amels are a cult-like group. In France, they have an unquestionable reputation especially for support. The factory really stands behind their product. For instance, the Lexan in the hard dodger on one owner’s 15 year old Amel 53 was crazed and scratched from years of sun and abuse. The owner emailed the factory and asked what they would recommend to replace the glass. The next day Amel emailed that it was part A-45 and would arrive in three days to his address. Sure enough, three days later the Lexan piece arrived. The owned unscrewed the old one, screwed in the new one, and cocked the edges. It was an absolutely perfect fit.

A valid criticism of Amel is the lack of options. When purchasing his new 53 Maramu, one prospect mentioned his wife did not like the upholstery. The Amel agent replied, “Monsieur, you have three options. One, you can purchase a new Amel with the upholstery you see here. Two, you purchase an aftermarket Amel that has a different upholstery. Three, you can purchase a new Amel and hire someone to reupholster her according to what your wife likes.” The options are limited and include the inverter wattage, two engine models, and various other miscellaneous items.

On Deck Up forward, two hatches to the chainlocker are port and starboard with hinges from the bulwarks and dog latches. The windlass is horizontal between the hatches. The decks have that awful faux teak, and I really think Amel has lost their taste here. While the faux teak is functional and sensible, I feel like it cheapens the yachts. More logically, the faux teak can develop annoying voids and is not entirely maintenance free. Then again, the fake teak is definitely more cost effective and maintenance free than real teak – not to mention more ecologically responsible. The human race can’t keep plundering out natural resources.

With the chainplates outboard and genoa tracks along the top of the bulwarks, the side decks are easy to walk along. The main has mid boom sheeting with a traveler in front of the hard dodger. Portside of the cockpit is a deck hatch. Aft of the cockpit is an end boom traveler for the mizzen mast. There is oddly no push pit but instead a setup of various holes, a pole, and rope. You can insert the pole in two stern deck holes and another on the first step of the swim platform. This moves the orientation of the stern railing. Two lazarettes port starboard aft finish the deck storage.

Notably, the Super Maramu has relatively little obvious ventilation except three hatches. The Mango had four hatches forward while the Super Maramu has only two. There are not any dorades. The key to ventilation is opening all the hatches and closing the companionway. This allows air to flow though the interior. But, you must close the companionway for it to work. To facilitate air flow, an optional fresh air system draws from the cockpit and blows through the interior.

The cockpit has low head room with the hard dodger setup. The helm is a molded chair with the wheel mounted on the companionway wall. The helm has a raised footrest and is nice and comfortable. Clearly, an experienced eye fine tuned the ergonomics. The companionway hatch is offset to starboard. The port and starboard benches are long enough to lay down on and have the right kind of corners for cruising. Port side is a locker under the seating. Centerline aft is the mizzen mast with cockpit lockers port starboard. Two portholes help lighten up the interior starboard side and aft to starboard. Access to the engine room is under the cockpit sole.

Down Below A one-piece companionway door slides downward for interior access. I really like this guillotine style hatch instead of the normal slats. Every manufacturer should have entryways like Amel. The interior is fantastic African mahogany with teak covered plywood soles in the galley and saloon. The staterooms and walk through are carpet. The headliner is cream vinyl. You feel like you entered a French nobleman’s boat during the renaissance. The frilly upholstery and dainty details contrast deeply with what you usually see.

Forward most, the V-berth is more accurately U-shaped. A hatch and two portholes give some light and ventilation. The stateroom has a two piece door that latches shut. Outside is a head to port with en-suite shower. These all close off by the first submarine bulkhead. Amels are famous for these watertight submarine style bulkheads. I think you can classify this as one of the features that does not make sense. While on a submarine, such a bulkhead is useful, on a pleasure yacht it seems silly. At a recent Annapolis Sailboat show, Amel had a demonstration where they flooded the forward compartment and then went for a sail on Chesapeake Bay. With her nose 10 degrees point down, she still sailed safely to port. At the very least, the submarine bulkheads do illustrate a positive and under appreciated mentality. Amels are engineered to be seaworthy vessels with safety foremost, an ideology that many manufacturers either do not understand or disregard in their blind search for the all might dollar.

Amidships, the saloon has a quaint French love seat starboard. To port, a U-shaped dinette fits a good group of guests. The galley is port side the starboard offset companionway and is a long U-shaped galley with front loading refrigeration. The tiled counter top has high fiddles a sometimes forgotten detail. The navigation station is opposite forward of the step down to walk through aft. Aft most is another watertight bulkhead and access to the master stateroom and head. The master head has an en-suite shower again. The berth is low, large and U-shaped.

Engine and Underway Another unique feature of the Super Maramu and Amels in general is the engine access through the cockpit sole. The hatch is watertight and opens easily with hydraulic lifts. I think this goes as another superior feature on Amels. The access and room is excellent. You can step down into the room and maintain the Volvo engine and Onan generator with ease. A particular problem and worry with this approach is leaking through the sole. Amel takes particular care to seal and prevent this possibility. On the Mango 53, this aft cockpit sole was raised to help. Here the sole is flush.

The Super Maramu is on the light side of the D/L ratio at 222. Performance cruisers usually range from 220 to 280. The Super Maramu has a double spreader rig for the main instead of the single you will find on Mangos. One owner writes about the Amel Super Maramu’s pointing ability and performance to weather, “The shrouds are fastened to the sides of the boat so the Genoa angle can not be brought in to point very high, But 30-35 degrees is a max. You also have a hundred horsepower engine and enough fuel to motor from New York to Bermuda. Getting off a lee shore is not a problem.”

Conclusion Amels have unique features and a cult-ish following including the long running and popular 53 Super Maramu. Some of the unique features make significant sense like the hull-deck join and engine access while others like the watertight bulkheads are interesting. Finally, features like the faux teak decks and cast iron ballast do not add value for me but do keep the prices on these yachts comparatively low without any serious trade-offs. Two used Amels in Fort Lauderdale are asking $350,000 and $450,000. Fort Lauderdale happens to be Amel’s US headquarters, and a resource for more information is Joel Potter, the exclusive US agent for the Americas.

The author did not understand the stern of the Amel Super Maramu.   The “setup of various holes, a pole, and a rope” are NOT used to move the orientation of the stern railing.  The stern railing remains in place with the pole and rope.    Those holes are for the passarelle.

The swim ladder which is normally mounted beneath the railing on the starboard side is re-positioned to the stern and used as a passarelle or ‘boarding plank’ when docked stern-to.  The ladder has a large mounting that fits into either the larger hole in the stern deck in the center of the steps or into the hole on the top stern step, depending on the level of the dock to which you are berthed.  There is a stainless steel stabilizer bar that clips into the side of the ladder to prevent lateral movement of the passarelle.   A “Y” line with a spacing separator to keep the 2 sides apart is clipped to the axel bar of the wheels on the end of the ladder; the other end is clipped to a halyard.  The halyard is used on a winch mounted on the mizzen mast to adjust the height of the passarelle.  A piece of wood fits into the top horizontal side of the ladder on which to walk while using it as a passarelle.There is another attachament — 2 poles connected with rope — that ties to the stern pole.  This serves as a handrail on the port side when walking on the passarelle.

Thanks Judy!

how much should I expect to run and maintain a super maramu in Grand Canaria per annum; say a 2003 year needing new sails?

S/V Delos is a famous Amel Super Maramu 53. It’s been on a world cruise for years. You can see Brian and the boat on youtube or the website. I’m sure he would answer any question posed.

There’s no “best” boat, there are boats suited for a purpose. The Super Maramu’s purpose is to sail around the world, in particular the South Pacific (French Polynesia) hence its design is made of choices for this application. Tradeoff examples: Chainplates: It will not point high on the wind, it’s made to go downwind. But it will survive heavy (really heavy) weather. The submarine bulkheads, the Chainplates and the rigging in general suddenly make sense when you cross the Pacific… Know your needs, and chose your boat accordingly.

“The factory really stands behind their product. For instance, the Lexan in the hard dodger on one owner’s 15 year old Amel 53 was crazed and scratched… three days later the Lexan piece arrived. The owned unscrewed the old one, screwed in the new one, and cocked the edges. It was an absolutely perfect fit.”

I’m pretty sure he ‘caulked’ the edges… with sealant. At least I hope he did.

1992 Amel Super Maramu 53 “Accolade”

Amel super maramu 1992.

Description

Specification, iconic blue water cruiser.

The Amel Super Maramu could be the most iconic blue water cruiser ever built due to her formidable reputation as a safe and easy to handle yacht that has taken owners around the globe many many times. If you are reading this ad then you may also have seen “Delos” on YouTube who have been documenting their travels aboard a Super Maramu for many years and although being given the opportunity to trade up to newer boats many times have decided that the Super Maramu is their world cruiser of choice!

Accolade is a solid example of this exceptionally well designed range of yachts and has cruised extensively including Atlantic crossings. More recently she has been used lightly around the Greek islands for holidays but we are sure she is itching to go on more adventures should her new owners wish to take her.  

This is a great opportunity to purchase an Amel Super Maramu at a very attractive price and then decide whether to upgrade some systems and circumnavigate or simply use her as she is and explore the Mediterranean.

Bluewater Sailboat – Amel Super Maramu 2000

After producing 497 hulls, the 52′ 6″ Amel Super Maramu sailing yacht was retired in 2005. It was initially built in 1989. With built-in features perfect for long-distance sailing, it placed an emphasis on comfort and ease. The Bluewater Sailboat Amel Super Maramu 2000, which Cruising World previously named the Year’s Best Boat, was the most widely used model.

Sailboats built by Amel in France are well-known across the world for their performance and design. They have a beautiful line of yachts, both inside and out. The Amel Super Maramu is one of their most recognizable sailing vessels.

Henri Amel founded Amel Shipyards in La Rochelle, France, in 1965. He was known as le Cap’tain and had a distinct style that served as the foundation for Amel’s success. His true name was not Amel, but after serving in Africa during WWII, he declared that the person he formerly was no longer existed and thus adopted the name Amel. He was a pioneer of fibreglass bluewater yachts, designing 36 Kirk, 41 Euros, and 52 Meltem models. This was followed by the 41 Sharki and 46 Maramu in the late 1970s, and the 53 Mango in the 1980s. Amel changed to a 46 Santorin in the late 1980s, and the subject of this study is the 53 Super Maramu, an advancement of the 53 Mango design. Le Cap’tain died four days before his 92nd birthday in April 2005. The Amel 54 is now their sole production model. In 2010, hull 1 of a 64 Amel will be built. The company is entirely owned by its employees, and it has created more 50-foot ocean cruising boats than any other builder.

Amel is also concerned with safety, as evidenced by the Super Maramu’s excessive construction. Hulls are made of a solid handlaid laminate of biaxial fabric set in polyester resin. The cloth is a particular flat woven variety designed specifically for Amel, with small voids and no intervening layers of mat. Amel also applies a patented blister barrier layer right underneath the gelcoat on all of its boats, which has apparently prevented osmotic blisters from forming on any Super Maramu hull thus far. Amels’ balsa-cored decks are added while the hull is still in the mould, and the connection is bonded with six layers of cloth so that the hull and deck eventually form a monocoque structure. There are several stores inside the Super Maramu. Inside the Super Maramu, four full-height watertight bulkheads (two with watertight internal doors) were bonded in place while the hull was still in its mould. Wherever hardware is fitted, the deck is solid laminate; all hardware is mounted with stainless-steel fasteners tapped into stainless-steel plates buried in the laminate.

A sailboat’s ballast is an essential part because it counteracts lateral stresses on the hull. This keeps the boat from capsize, which is especially important in windy conditions. The ballast of this boat is made of cast iron, which is well-known for being a cost-effective material.

A sailboat’s keel is its primary structural support. It serves as the main support structure of the boat and carries the weight. To reduce drag and improve the boat’s ability to glide across the water, it frequently contains hydrodynamic characteristics. There is a wing keel on this sailboat. It prevents vertical protrusion using horizontal hydrofoils that reach to the central shaft. It enhances handling and stability. Additionally, it guarantees a steady speed regardless of environmental changes. When a vessel is in the sea, its displacement is the amount of water it shifts. It conveys the sailboat’s weight. The displacement of the Super Maramu is 35,274 pounds.

This Bluewater sailboat’s original interior boasts a sophisticated layout. The cabin has a subtle air of refinement thanks to the leather interior. The cabins’ inventive design makes it simple to keep water out. The flexible pipes in the water-tight chambers stop water from entering.

The inside is not only attractive but also roomy. For all the gear you need to bring sailing, you will have plenty of storage room. This is a crucial feature because the majority of users of this vessel are seasoned sailors.  Two cabins on the Amel Super Maramu can accommodate up to seven guests in luxury. The traditional mahogany wood used to construct the cabin’s inside gives the area a distinctive beauty. Large beds can be found in its two staterooms. You will find a U-shaped dining table in the yacht’s saloon. It can accommodate up to ten people thanks to an extension.  Depending on the model, the galley’s specific characteristics may change. The galley is equipped with a refrigerator, stove, oven, and microwave.

The fact that this sailboat is designed to give its owners the highest level of comfort is its best feature. It features all the amenities you require for long-distance sailing, from the cabins to the galleys. It is fully equipped with all of the required heating and cooling systems, as well as a stove, shower, and hot water. It is equipped with everything you need to spend weeks at sea.

The engine installation is also completely unique and uses a proprietary U-drive. The engine is situated facing aft, and the thrust is delivered to a unique integral drive leg mounted on the back of the keel via two right-angle joints. The engine can be put on very soft mounts because the propeller’s thrust is completely horizontal and is entirely supported by the keel, minimizing vibration. The addition of excellent sound insulation results in an extremely quiet driving experience.

Performance

This sailboat may be operated without requiring a lot of physical strength. No need to lift more than 50 pounds. This sailboat is simple to operate. Pushing a button turns on the electric furler, making it simple to regulate the sails. Additionally, it has a direct-drive furler that can be operated via the winch handle. Additionally, you can use the power windlass without leaving the cockpit thanks to the anchor washdown. Additionally retractable is the bow thruster, making docking easier. The Amel Super Maramu can go at a top speed of 8.62 knots. Even though it is not the fastest in its class, this is still a respectable option for long-distance and leisurely travellers. For comparison, the world’s fastest boat has three Rolls-Royce engines and can reach a top speed of 70.1 knots.

Quick Notes

The fact that Amel no longer produces the Super Maramu is one of the most noticeable disadvantages. This implies that you can no longer purchase it directly from the manufacturer. You can only purchase it from other users or independent dealers. This sailboat’s greatest strength is not speed. Nevertheless, since it wasn’t made to race, this shouldn’t be a problem. Long-distance sailors use it.

Word from the broker

To the future Owner of TRADE WIND from the owner :

“TRADE WIND is Super Maramu No. 190 built by Henri Amel, whom I knew per-sonally. I bought the boat new in 1997 and kept it until today. I sailed TRADE WIND together with my late wife and occasionally with friends in the Mediterra-nean Sea and in the Caribbean, always under my command.

TRADE WIND is very well kept and in very good condition. Services and repairs where always done regularly and in time, usually by Chantier Amel and its relat-ed companies. A solid amount of replacement parts gives additional independ-ence. Situated in Grenada W. I. TRADE WIND is ready for sailing right away.

I wish the new owner of TRADE WIND ‘fair winds and many happy landings’ on this strong, luxurious and in many respects extraordinary Yacht.”
