2005 Christensen 157' _{(47.85 m)}

OVERVIEW

AMORE was built by an exceptional team at one of the premier yacht builders in America, Christensen Shipyard in Vancouver, WA. AMORE was originally built for a knowledgeable yachtsman with close relations to the shipyard. Her subsequent current owner has kept the tradition of keeping AMORE in immaculate condition by consistently maintaining an exceptional Captain and crew.

The beautiful contemporary interior of AMORE was designed by interior designer Carol Williams & Associates and handcrafted in-house by Christensen. Her outstanding features include striking walnut walls and cabinetry and some of the world’s finest marble inlay and stonework.

She has an incredible 6 stateroom layout that includes a full beam master stateroom on the main deck, 5 guest staterooms below, all ensuite, comprised of a full-beam VIP stateroom, 2 King guest staterooms and 2 guest staterooms with a full, a single and Pullman berth, giving her accommodations for up to 16 guests.

The elevator can access all four decks, from the guest cabins up to the sun deck.

Built to ABS class, AMORE can be privately or commercially registered, allowing her to charter anywhere in the world. In fact, she has been an incredibly popular charter boat because of her incredible flexible layout, elevator, and reliable service.  

AMORE has been extremely well kept and improved over her lifespan. She has had exceptional ownership, keeping her to the highest standard possible. With a completely new top to bottom paint job which is currently being completed along with a full shipyard service, she will be ready for her new owners to enjoy and explore for many years to come. AMORE will prove an outstanding opportunity for any buyer looking for a high-quality pedigree with superb fit and finish, 6 staterooms, large outside deck space, elevator to all decks, and a 4000+ nautical mile range.

WALKTHROUGH

Entering AMORE from the starboard side through the formal entrance, one will reach the foyer to find stunning marble floors, beautiful spiral stairs and an elevator that services all decks. A spacious and well-appointed main deck day head is in the forward section of the foyer. Further forward through a private Owner’s study is the full beam on-deck master stateroom with his and her oversized walk-in closets and ample storage throughout.

As you go up to the skylounge deck by stairs or elevator you will find a spacious and comfortable skylounge with ample seating, entertainment, a sunken bar with large comfortable bar chairs, and huge windows throughout for views as far as the eye can see. Forward of the skylounge is the upper deck foyer with day toilet. Passing through the foyer one will reach the bridge, the control center of this fine yacht, equipped with state-of-the-art navigation and communication equipment.

One can enter AMORE from the aft deck into the main salon where you will find a huge salon for relaxing and entertaining with large windows on either side, allowing unimpeded views of the water and surroundings. Forward of the main salon, one finds formal dining for 12.

Continue forward past the dining to reach the foyer. This area is also accessed through the formal entrance on the starboard side of the vessel.

AMORE has the most spacious outside deck space of any vessel of its size. The main deck offers seating tables, bars and comfort with the lower deck having a full covered walk-around. The upper deck offers wonderful seating areas, covered dining for 12 and roomy entertaining areas.

The sun deck offers a shaded bar with seating for 9, additional seating at lower table, sun pads, Jacuzzi, and elevator access. In addition, the sun deck, has the ability for a touch and go helicopter pad.
