M&EM is a 74-metre motor yacht delivered in 2022 by Amels, part of Damen Yachting. She belongs to the Amels 242 Limited Editions family, which combines a proven large-yacht engineering platform with a significant scope for owner-specific interior and exterior customisation. The result is neither an identical sistership nor a wholly untested one-off design.
Tim Heywood Design is credited with the exterior and Winch Design with the custom interior. The distinctive blue exterior colour is one of M&EM's most immediately recognisable individual features. The Amels 242 arrangement provides a dedicated owner's deck, including a forward-facing suite with open views, as well as a substantial swimming pool on the aft deck. These spaces are integrated into a layout designed for extended voyages and onboard entertainment.
Damen Yachting lists an overall length of 74 metres, hull beam of 11.9 metres and full-load draught of 3.85 metres. Gross tonnage is 1,790. The builder specifies accommodation for 12 guests in six cabins and an operating complement of 19 crew members. These capacities reflect the scale of service and technical operation required aboard a vessel of this size.
Maximum speed is stated as 16.5 knots, with a range of approximately 5,000 nautical miles at 12.5 knots. M&EM thus reflects the Amels 242 concept: long-distance cruising performance, familiar technical foundations and a clearly individual design programme.

Sources, assumptions and methodology
Indicative SYG estimate. Value basis: Length-and-age model using length. Central annual OPEX uses the established 14% of estimated yacht value fallback, adjusted for yacht age where available. Low and high cases reflect utilisation, condition, crewing, fuel, berthing and maintenance uncertainty. Capital reserve is shown separately from routine OPEX. Figures must be replaced or upgraded when reported accounts, invoices, court records or other yacht-specific evidence is available.
Calculation version: SYG-FI-1.0 · Last reviewed: 25 July 2026
Financial figures may include reported expenditure, source-derived calculations and indicative estimates. Estimated figures are not audited accounts, quotations or financial advice.

How to read this history:
Superyacht Guide estimates,
brokerage asking prices and
documented transaction values are
stored as separate record types.
The first baseline record marks the
beginning of permanent Superyacht
Guide value-history tracking; the
absence of an earlier record does
not mean the yacht had no earlier
market value or sale history.
