The A stands for aluminium, as the project will be constructed entirely in aluminium to reduce overall weight while simultaneously improving performance, enabling higher speeds with greater efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18132\" style=\"width:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3-1568x882.webp 1568w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/9-3.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In order to convey &#8220;dynamism and sportiness&#8221;, Luxardo has introduced a personalised design language into the Amer 42A. Complementing this are large windows, which also enhance the interior-exterior connection from inside, and decks arranged in a sinuous movement. The designer explained that aluminium was chosen to allow for the yacht&#8217;s smooth curves, undercuts, overhangs and cantilevers to be &#8220;like no other&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18134\" style=\"width:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3-1568x882.webp 1568w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/10-3.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Luxardo, each design choice outside translates into the onboard experience within, across shared areas such as the sundeck designed for relaxation, and private spaces including the full-beam owner&#8217;s suite on the main deck. Guest cabins are situated on the lower deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This new design forms part of continued stylistic and product research developed by Luxardo for the Amer Yachts brand &#8211; a collaboration that began five years ago with the shipyard&#8217;s Steel line and continued with the new fibreglass models 96 Sanremo, F106 and F126.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11-1024x576.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18136\" style=\"width:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11-1568x882.webp 1568w, https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/11.webp 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Construction is currently underway on the yard&#8217;s flagship build and the first unit from its 73.8-metre Amer 74 Steel line, which was also penned by Luxardo.
