The newly built and just delivered Amels 83m (272′) superyacht Here Comes the Sun was recently spotted on what appears to be its maiden voyage in Gibraltar. It is currently the flagship of the Amels yacht fleet and the first of the Amels 272 Limited Edition line to be launched from the shipyard.

The superyacht is capable of a 17 knot top speed and 15 knot cruising speed thanks to twin Caterpillar diesel engines. At cruising speed Here Comes the Sun has a trans-oceanic cruising range in excess of 5,000 nautical miles.
Little is known about the extent of the amenities on-board but Here Comes the Sun does include a helipad, large beach club and at least one swimming pool. The yacht is currently not available for private charter.
