Happy new year!

2024-01-12

Best Wishes! The year 2024 has just begun, and we hope it will be filled with wonderful moments to share with you.

Sixty years ago, Henri Amel bought some polyester workshops in La Rochelle to build the sailboats he envisioned. Five years later, after a devastating fire, he established his new shipyard in Périgny. Over these past six decades, despite sometimes facing obstacles, the AMEL spirit has been passed down from generation to generation, with enthusiasm and passion for imagining and producing sailboats capable of traveling across all the seas of the world.

Today, we are proud of this legacy and happy to continue to keep it alive by reinventing and adapting it to the desires and demands of our clients. After all, they have always represented a community of sea lovers, and their dreams and travel plans have also evolved over time.

With renewed enthusiasm, we look towards the future, ready to continue innovating, in order to create exceptional boats for the decades to come.

We want to thank you for your unwavering trust and support over the years. Your sea voyages are our main source of inspiration, and we are eager to accompany you on new adventures “Together”.

May the winds be in your favor and lead you to the most beautiful destinations!

We wish you an excellent year 2024!

The AMEL Team”

Gender Equality Index – Women and Men

In accordance with current French legislation, Chantiers AMEL publishes its Gender Equality Index between women and men each year.

This index, scored out of 100 points, is calculated based on four criteria for companies with 50 to 250 employees: equal pay, individual salary increases, raises following maternity leave, and gender balance among the top 10 highest salaries.

For the year 2025, based on 2024 data, Chantiers AMEL achieved a score of 99/100 on its Gender Equality Index.

SA Chantiers AMEL remains strongly committed to gender equality and, more broadly, to professional equality for all its employees.
