New helideck part of refit for Feadship Amara

The Feadship yard in Makkum, The Netherlands, has welcomed back the 57.30-metre Amara, first launched by Feadship as Cacique in 1986. Originally designed by Frits de Voogt with an interior by Terence Disdale, the current owners purchased Amara in 2020. Having spent time onboard the classic Feadship, they decided to use their experiences to refit Amara to their personal preferences and uses.

One of the key aspects of an extensive list of activities will be the installation of a new helicopter deck. This will require the removal of this part of the construction, building a new helideck at the yard and placing this entire section onto Amara. Meanwhile, the teak on the sun deck will be replaced and the foredeck fully re-laid in teak.

The Feadship paint experts will have the opportunity to  showcase their capabilities on the new helideck, the foredeck and a range of other areas. Various interior activities and technical work will also be carried out to return Amara to peak condition.
