Amel shipyard is a benchmark in the design and manufacture of bluewater boats. Founded in La Rochelle in 1965 by Henri Amel, Chantiers Amel designs and produces transoceanic cruising sailboats designed to sail around the world. Mr. Amel innovates with the creation of polyester boats from the beginning of the use of this technique by the nautical industry or even electric furlers for the headsails, mainsails adapted on a very reliable furling mast. The shipyard first launched small monohulls, such as the Super Mistral Sport or the Copain, which were very successful at the time. Despite difficulties concerning his construction site, Henri Amel will be able to get out of it, before finally going blind, which will not prevent him from having a long career. Passionate sailor, he does not hesitate to sail several months a year, despite his visual impairment. Until today Les Chantiers Amel have been able to produce a series of long boats (ketches) such as the Meltem or the Mango, but also smaller series of sloops such as the Kirk or the Fango. Henri had the shipyard draftsman Jacques Carteau as an assistant in order to overcome his visual handicap. Since 2010 the company has been producing Amel 64 and Amel 55. Today Amel produces two models: the Amel 50 and the Amel 60 which have abandoned the ketch rig.
