Amels are common enough that you come across them occasionally but uncommon enough that it is still exciting when you do see one, so when we anchored behind another Amel Super Maramu in the Exumas we couldn&#8217;t wait to say hi! Turns out they were from Switzerland and had sailed over from the Med and were planning on heading north at the same times as us. Perfect opportunity for some Super Maramu buddy boating.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had some amazing winds heading up to New Providence. Ended up getting up to 9.5 kts under Genoa and Mizzen only at one point. It was awesome being able to discuss sail plans and other elements of our set up, while underway and in the same conditions on the same boat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/520d6394-27b9-4b5f-b989-93520cb736de-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/520d6394-27b9-4b5f-b989-93520cb736de-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/520d6394-27b9-4b5f-b989-93520cb736de-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/520d6394-27b9-4b5f-b989-93520cb736de-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/520d6394-27b9-4b5f-b989-93520cb736de.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sunrise departure.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/GPTempDownload-4-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/GPTempDownload-4-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/GPTempDownload-4-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/GPTempDownload-4-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/GPTempDownload-4-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/GPTempDownload-4-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Two Super Maramus!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3311-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-268\" srcset=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3311-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3311-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3311-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3311-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3311-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Bit of a grainy action shot of our buddy boat.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3798-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3798-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3798-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3798-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3798-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/justplanesailing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3798-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Heavily reefed main and a cocktail flag still flying.
