The Amel Super Maramu is a true benchmark for bluewater cruising and ocean crossings. Renowned for its robust construction, safety at sea, and ease of handling, it is particularly appreciated by short-handed sailors.
Botrytis, a 1993 Amel Super Maramu, is a proven offshore cruiser. Designed as a ketch with a staysail, the Super Maramu offers exceptional flexibility in sail plans, allowing you to adapt easily to all weather conditions. Sail handling is particularly simple thanks to electric furling systems for the mainsail and genoa, as well as electric winches, all controlled from a deep, safe and fully protected cockpit. The cockpit itself is one of Amel's signature strengths, secure, sheltered, and designed for comfortable passagemaking in all conditions.
A well-maintained and upgraded vessel
Botrytis benefits from several important upgrades that significantly enhance her value and autonomy:
o Lithium battery bank (2025) - a major upgrade providing excellent electrical autonomy for cruising
o Volvo D2-75 engine (2013) with only 2,475 hours - a strong asset for a vessel of this age
o 600W solar panels and 60L/h watermaker for full self-sufficiency at sea
o Electric furling system fully upgraded (2024) - new motors and gear units
o Standing rigging (2026) - outer and inner shrouds changed
o Hydranet mainsail (2010) - good condition, professionally maintained in 2025
o Delta Voiles genoa (2013) - good condition, serviced in 2025
The boat has also been carefully maintained with recent servicing including:
o Full engine and transmission service (March 2025)
o Shaft seals, anodes, propeller cleaning, and saildrive oil change
o Antifouling (March 2025 - Hempel 9000)
Equipment highlights
o B&G / Garmin navigation electronics with chartplotter and radar
o 2 autopilots (Raymarine)
o 100 m anchor chain + 34 kg anchor with electric windlass
o Tender Plastimo Yacht (October 2025)
o Outboards: Yamaha Enduro 8hp (2025) + Tohatsu 5hp (2016)
o Import tax paid in French Polynesia (2023)
Interior comfort
Life onboard is comfortable and practical, perfectly suited for long-distance cruising:
o Spacious saloon with excellent ventilation and natural light
o Fully equipped galley (oven, gas hob, double sink)
o Owner's aft cabin with double berth + single berth
o Forward guest cabin
o Ensuite bathrooms for each cabin
o Dedicated passage berth near the chart table, ideal for watchkeeping
Points to consider
In line with her age, a few elements should be taken into account:
o Navigation electronics are functional but older compared to recent systems
o Air conditioning currently not operational
Botrytis is a capable, autonomous and proven bluewater cruiser, ideal for a couple or family looking to embark on a serious sailing adventure with a well-equipped and thoughtfully upgraded yacht.
