Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 vs Amels Volpini 2 2018 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 vs Amels Volpini 2 2018 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 measures 393,8 feet overall (2025), giving it roughly 205,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Amels Volpini 2 2018 at 188,0 feet (2018). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Amels Volpini 2 2018 tips the scales at 1 940 000 lbs — 800 000 lbs less than the Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 at 1 140 000 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The Amels Volpini 2 2018 tops out at 1 876 hp. Engine specs for the Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 is rated for 120 passengers, while the Amels Volpini 2 2018 caps at 57. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Amels 120 Full Custom 2025 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 120 passengers and at 393,8 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Amels Volpini 2 2018 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 57 that costs less to run day-to-day.
