Azimut Yachts has secured the reputation of their Azimut Grande collection by attaining a coveted silver Neptune at the World Superyacht Awards 2018 for their 35m/115ft motor yacht MR. OH.
Taking Semi-Displacement or Planing Two Deck Motor Yachts 35m and Above, M/Y MR. OH impressed the judges with her high-quality construction and carefully considered onboard spaces.
The designers optimised the exterior deck area and lower deck for the Owners to spend more time connecting with the environment. As a result, there are two beach clubs on the lower deck – one measuring 12m/39ft placed in the stern and a second larger beach club measuring 30m/98ft and fitted with sun lounger-sofas and a hydromassage tub placed within the bow.
Exterior designer Stefano Righini and crafted her sleek exteriors with a sense of dynamism to contrast with the cool and calming interiors from Achille Salvagni. Bespoke furnishings and flowing layouts add to the sophistication and glamour not only in the main guest areas but the hallways and accommodation as well.
Light is an important aspect of superyacht MR. OH, and to this end, the staircase connecting all floors is lit from within and neo-classical lampshades are carefully placed for optimal lighting while complementing the last light through the full-height windows at the end of the day.
The Owner’s suite has a private terrace and the lower deck contains four grand VIP cabins, ensuring that each guest feels refreshed and ready to start each day. The crew accommodation and facilities also impressed the judges, providing efficient workspaces and comfortable relaxation areas.
Outside, the large outdoor areas are designed for hosting parties yet also allow guests to break away from the main group for sunbathing in peace and quiet.
In terms of construction, great efforts have been made to reduce noise and the D2P_Displacement to Planning® hull ensures that fuel is used efficiently and navigation is responsive in various conditions at sea.
“The prize awarded to the flagship in the shipyard’s most exclusive Collection confirms just how committed our team and all our collaborators are to offering only the best to Azimut owners in terms of comfort, design and technology”, Azimut|Benetti Group Vice President Giovanna Vitelli commented at the ceremony, which took place at the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence on the 19th of May.
