The Azimut 53, 38 and 72S motor yachts are ready to take the USA by storm. Azimut Yachts chose the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show for the debut in the United States of the new Azimut 53 motor yacht, the model awarded “Motorboat of the Year 2010” by a selected team of journalists and the UK magazine Motorboat & Yachting. The Azimut 53 is a yacht with a great impact, by virtue of very contemporary and meticulous design work. Its decisive lines and sleek profile offer a sensation of elegance and power.. Even though a yacht is habitually measured in feet, in this case the length of the hull is not sufficient to describe the space onboard. The design has been enhanced by technical solutions that increase the volume on the three bridges and which create a surprising luminosity that highlights the elegance of the finishings and the materials.
This is the secret of the Flybridge Collection from Azimut: sleek lines enclosing spectacularly large and airy spaces, elegant, modern décor impeccable down to the smallest detail, light streaming in through ample windows and a vast terrace area. These characteristics are also displayed by the new Azimut 38, being launched at the New York Boat Show in January. The 38 is extremely easy to handle and maintain, environmentally friendly and – at the same time ” conveys the style, elegance and comfort that distinguish Azimut Yachts.
The new Azimut 72S motor yacht is a boat to be used inside and outside in equal measure. These two environments meet together in the saloon, dominated by a powered glass ceiling with UV protection and great attention to detail. The innovative content of its design and detailed attention in the choice of materials and installation make the 72S a perfect sample of the S Collection, designed for people who love performance and comfort with the same intensity. In fact, it is a technologically advanced boat that reaches 39 knots and can be piloted from the flybridge with an innovative joystick that replaces the traditional helm wheel. Furthermore, carbon fibre has been utilised to reduce the weight without compromising safety. A veritable revolution bringing class and elegance together. Innovation and comfort characterize the lower deck, where, amongst other things, the bathrooms are fitted with washbasins of laminated gold leaf glass.
Azimut Grande and Azimut Magellano: “Made in Italy” enjoys a rebirth! The novelty of the season that has just started goes further than the debut of these three new models. Two further collections are ready to cross over the ocean to offer the best of contemporary Italian style to American boat owners.
From this year, Azimut Yachts offers its clients Azimut Grande: a range of yachts above 30 metres and a portfolio of services dedicated to owners of megayachts. Innovative services that also include the availability of the Personal Design Team, a unique group of specialists that can reach the client anywhere in the World, to discuss the design, collect the individual wishes and quickly present the proposal that will translate dreams into reality.
Furthermore, American boat owners will have the possibility of discovering the Magellano Collection, that is enriched this year with the new Magellano 50, presented at the worldwide preview at the International Boat Show of Genova in October.
The Azimut range is boosted by a new category with the Magellano Collection and offers products that are market-leading in terms of their minimum environmental impact. The Magellano 50 is setting new standards by being the very first yacht that combines family features, total safety at sea and superior comfort underway with low levels of fuel consumption and maximum respect for the environment, proven by certification of the RINA GREEN PLUS class notation.
Designed to deal with long cruises, the Magellano 50 guarantees excellent autonomy and enhanced navigational stability in three speed brackets: displacement at 10 knots, semidisplacement at 16 knots and maximum speed of 22 knots. Maintaining a speed of 7 knots, the yacht ensures an autonomy of 1,400 nm and it is possible to have hybrid motorisation to navigate a long way in near silence.
A well-contained turning circle and precise manoeuvring are characteristics that guarantee the maximum navigational safety and go together with the solution of Active & Passive Safety adopted onboard. The boat is designed to be easily handled by its owner with a large engine room, well-organised installations and systems that can be easily inspected for quick maintenance.
Furthermore, Magellano 50 is the only boat of this size to have a stern lounge area typical of the big motor yachts and offering four different layouts on the lower deck to please the whole family.
The interest shown in the new Azimut Magellano 50 has gone further than the wildest forecasts, with significant commercial success: after only two weeks from its launch, the Magellano 50 was sold out for the whole 2010/2011 season. However, Azimut Yachts can confirm that the boat will be present in the States in the autumn of 2011 at the most important American shows.
