The are respected the world over for their endurance, unequalled seaworthiness and comfort as live-aboard.
The build of every Amel provides unsurpassed strength and structural integrity with the hull, deck, bulkheads and furniture all laminated together to form one piece.
Four genuine watertight bulkheads and isolated engine room provide safety and quietness not found in other 50-foot yachts.
The interior is luxurious with a large owner’s stateroom aft and ensuite.
Forward are 2 cabins, port-side cabin has double berth, starboard cabin has 2 bunk berths, a large head with shower and sink is forward in bow.

The Amel 54 centre cockpit is high and dry with windscreen and full covers providing great protection from the elements and an entertaining area for dining and relaxing. The centre cockpit also provides a very secure helm station with all major sailing controls keeping the helmsman safe in the cockpit.
The sails are all electric furling controlled by joysticks at the helm station and electric winches make handling the sails light work.

'Gallivant' is faultlessly presented and a credit of her owners of many years. Her presentation could rival a new boat and she is equipped to suit blue-water cruising in comfort and safety. She is immensely strong, powerful, manoeuvrable, and to make you feel even safer, fitted with four water-tight bulkhead in the event of a collision.
"Gallivant" is regrettably offered for sale as her owners wish to return to the US, which will certainly be an emotional moment, although it is a consolation for them to know that they are handing over their beloved ‘Gallivant’ to her new family in beautiful condition, ready to continue sailing around the world and to provide her new owners with as much joy and pride as she has brought to them over the years.

A WORD FROM THE OWNER:
"Gallivant was built in 2006. The original owner used the boat for short periods, only for 4 years. It was in storage until we purchased it in January 2012. We have used the boat for 6 to 8 months each year since, with the exception of a 1 ½ year lay up for unexpected personal reasons. We spent 5 of those years cruising the Caribbean, with several crossings of the Caribbean Sea, visiting nearly every island. We transited the Panama Canal in February 2018 and have crossed the Pacific. In August 2019, we are currently cruising Vanuatu. Our short term plan is to go to New Caledonia.
We have been cruising together for over 40 years on a variety of boats. The Amel 54 is the ultimate cruising yacht, the best in comfort and safety. After owning this boat and sailing it many thousands of miles, I would not want to cross oceans on any other vessel."
