T. Mariotti S.p.A. – Shipyard and Aman have made a significant step in the development of their new category of ultra-luxury megayachts with the keel-laying ceremony of Aman at Sea.
As reported previously by LATTE, the first steel for the project was cut in March but this week’s ceremony, held at the T. Mariotti shipyard in San Giorgio di Nogaro, signals construction of Aman at Sea has officially begun.
Anticipated to launch in 2027, Aman at Sea will feature 50-suites with private balconies and will offer an array of dining options, including an informal all-day restaurant, international dining options and a relaxed club and lounge, a serene Aman Spa with a Japanese garden, two helipads, plus an expansive “Beach Club”, which will offer guests direct access to the water at the stern of the yacht.
