Azimut Yachts: The Italian Art of Living at Sea
Quiet nights aboard a Magellano, long lunches on a flybridge, and a Verve with somewhere to be. Azimut makes a convincing case for clearing your calendar.
An Azimut tends to catch your eye before you know which model you’re looking at. Long windows, sculpted profiles, and outdoor spaces that make you mentally rearrange your weekend plans are part of the appeal.
The Italian builder’s range accommodates very different boating habits. There are Magellanos for owners happy to stretch a trip into another week, Grande yachts with room to entertain, and Verve models for anyone who checks the speed before counting the cabins.
Azimut brought that variety to the 2026 Palm Beach International Boat Show. The models featured here show how much personality can change from one collection to the next.
The Art of Going Farther
The Magellano collection suits a particular kind of traveler: someone who finds a good anchorage and immediately wonders whether they really need to leave tomorrow.
The Magellano 30M, measuring approximately 97 feet, is designed for extended cruising without sacrificing contemporary comfort. Its exterior, created by Ken Freivokh, features generous windows, sophisticated architectural details, and inviting outdoor spaces.
Inside, five guest cabins accommodate up to ten guests, providing ample room for family and friends to explore coastlines and distant anchorages.

The Magellano 25M, at approximately 83 feet, offers a similarly thoughtful approach to life aboard. One of its most interesting innovations is a lithium-ion battery system that can power onboard hotel functions for up to eight hours at night without running the generators.
The practical payoff is a quieter night at anchor, with fewer mechanical interruptions to dinner or sleep. A generator is rarely anyone’s favorite dinner companion.
A Different Kind of Grandeur
Azimut's Grande collection takes a more architectural approach to luxury.
The Grande 32M, approximately 105 feet in length, makes an immediate impression with its sweeping lines and expansive glass surfaces.
Designed with exterior styling by Stefano Righini and interiors by Achille Salvagni, the yacht favors sculptural forms and fluid spaces over conventional layouts.
Inside, soft curves and carefully considered furnishings create an atmosphere that feels closer to a contemporary waterfront residence than a traditional motor yacht.
The Grande 32M also incorporates carbon-fiber construction and an advanced hull design intended to improve efficiency, demonstrating how naval engineering and elegant design can work together.
The Freedom to Entertain
For owners who enjoy shorter escapes, weekend adventures, and entertaining on the water, Azimut's Fly series offers another interpretation of coastal living.
The Fly 53 brings family-friendly cruising into an approximately 55-foot yacht, with three guest cabins and inviting indoor-outdoor spaces.
Stepping up in size, the Fly 62 introduces a distinctive Beach Cockpit concept that brings guests closer to the water. Its transforming stern seating creates a relaxing area for sunbathing, socializing, and taking in the view.

The Fly 72 expands the possibilities further, offering four guest cabins and generous outdoor entertaining areas across multiple decks.
Whether hosting a sunset gathering or exploring the coastline for a week, these yachts are designed to make time on the water feel effortless.

A Need for Speed
Then there’s the owner who hears “50 knots” and starts paying closer attention.
The Azimut Verve 48 brings a more energetic personality to the collection. Measuring just over 49 feet, this high-performance sport cruiser is powered by triple Mercury Verado 600-horsepower outboards and is designed to reach speeds of up to 50 knots.
Its open cockpit, fold-down side platform, and versatile seating arrangements make it equally appealing for a fast run to a favorite island or a leisurely afternoon swimming offshore.
Below deck, two cabins provide comfortable accommodations for overnight escapes.
A quiet anchorage and a fast afternoon offshore ask different things of a boat. Azimut gives both their due. The harder decision may be whether your next escape calls for extra nights aboard or an earlier arrival.
