By Anna Ingles 12 May 2026

Dutch shipyard Amels has officially delivered the brand-new 196.1ft (60m) charter yacht QU2, with the yacht now preparing for her inaugural Mediterranean yacht charter season following completion at Damen Yachting’s Vlissingen facility in the Netherlands.

Fresh from a private naming ceremony at the shipyard, luxury yacht charter QU2 marks the latest addition to the acclaimed fleet of Amels 60 Limited Editions yachts for charter, and hits the market as one of the most anticipated new superyachts of 2026.

Combining the proven pedigree of the Amels platform with highly personalized interiors by Winch Design, the yacht has been tailored for both private luxury cruising and high-end charter experiences.

Designed With Charter in Mind

Damen Yachting highlighted QU2’s charter-focused design during the delivery announcement, emphasizing the balance between guest comfort, operational efficiency, and long-range cruising capability.

The Amels charter yacht has extensive exterior spaces, including a spacious swim platform, beach club, sundeck Jacuzzi, exterior bar, and multiple alfresco dining areas, all designed to maximize outdoor living. Guests looking for wellness amenities will also find a sauna, gym equipment, and a fully equipped beach club that transforms into a private waterside retreat.
