The ‘Amore’, an exquisite product of US yard Christensen, is now on the brokerage market. Built in 2005, this premium motor yacht offers an experience of a lifetime to its dwellers. Amore was constructed under the astute supervision of a well-versed yachtsman having close connections with the shipyard.
The magnificence of the yacht lay in her construction, an in-house design crafted in GRP and beautiful interiors by Carol Williamson & Associates. The cabin, featuring walnut walls, hosts world-class marble inlay and stonework. Recently, Amore claimed a price tag of $19,500,000.
In 2022, a radical refit costing $2.8 million was undertaken in Fort Lauderdale. The refit added a new paint job, overhauled the engine, and upgraded the galley. Accommodations were updated with the replacement of the interior and exterior soft furnishings in 2021.
