AmaViola Wiki

AmaViola’s christening ceremony was held on June 15, 2016, in Vilshofen. The ship’s godmother was Jackie Friedman (President of Nexion LLC, a travel agency network). The event was attended by AmaWaterways co-founders Kristin Karst and Rudi Schreiner, along with shipbuilders, crew, local officials, travel agents, and media representatives. A local band performed a song composed specifically for the occasion. Notably, on June 14, the day before, sistership AmaStella was also christened in Vilshofen.

APT AmaViola is one of the company's newest river cruise ships in the modified Concerto-class series, with sisterships AmaKristina (2016), AmaLea (2018), AmaLucia (2021), AmaMora (2019), AmaSiena (2020), AmaSofia (2026), and AmaStella (2016). These vessels feature the innovative "Twin Balcony" stateroom concept, combining a traditional French balcony with a second covered, step-out veranda for year-round enjoyment.

Each riverboat is powered by two Caterpillar marine diesel engines (model "C32 DITA ACERT" V-12), delivering a total power output of 1900 kW / 2550 HP.

The vessel’s construction (hull and superstructure, ENI number 07002043) took place at the Vahali Shipyard in Zasavica (Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia). The Dutch shipbuilding company Scheepswerf en Machinefabriek Vahali BV, founded in 1923, operates shipyards in both Serbia (Belgrade and Zasavica) and the Netherlands (Gendt). The Zasavica shipyard was officially inaugurated in 2013.
