Whether cruising at the helm or anchored at a favourite hideaway, the elevated position offers uninhibited views of the seascape. In addition, wide sliding doors open to an aft balcony, making the enclosed flybridge a second entertainment area where guests can relax indoors and out, or simply enjoy Maritimo's legendary performance in the company of the skipper.

But the A60 Aegean Enclosed not only goes further in style and luxury, it also goes further thanks to genuine long-range cruising capabilities. Designed with an advanced variable deadrise hull, engines and fuel tanks over the centre of buoyancy, and a miniscule shaft angle of just 9 degrees, the A60 Aegean Enclosed has effortless poise and balance - and is incredibly fuel-efficient as a result.

I found a lot to like about Azimut’s 50 Flybridge. Sightlines from the lower helm are excellent; there’s only a single, narrow mullion in the windshield, and the forward side windows are at eye-level from the helm. The aft side windows are a bit lower, giving guests in the saloon a great view from the plush Ultraleather settees, and affording good visibility while docking alongside a pier, and sightlines aft are great, thanks to the full-width glass panels and sliding glass door to the cockpit.

Our test boat had the two-stateroom, two-head layout, which offers an exceptionally spacious galley on the lower deck, only three steps lower than the saloon, so the chef can still converse with guests in this luxury yacht. And directly above is the large, sloping windshield, flooding the cooking area with natural light. Two large, circular portholes alongside rich-looking, black molded countertops offer more light and air, while recessed fixtures provide task lighting for the chef’s toils in your luxury yacht.

But what I liked most about the galley in yachts was its roominess, with copious stowage spaces and appliances sized for real cooking, not just warming up a few snacks in the microwave, which is out of sight in a cabinet below the sink. Speaking of the sink, it’s a double-basin affair, as big as one you might find at home, with a built-in dish drain along side. I was pleased to note that each of the cooktop’s three burners was fitted with a stout pot restraint, a functional feature too seldom seen on yachts of this style.

Forward of the stove is about four feet of open counter space for food prep, a full-height double-door refrigerator/freezer (in a handsome varnished cherry cabinet), and a matching full-height cabinet with five shelves, each about two feet wide and more than a foot deep in yacht. There are also five big under-counter modern cabinets for stowing bulky items; one is fitted with bottle racks, while another has a nifty pull-out shelf for spices and smaller items. Tucked behind a series of varnished wood panels that look like a decorative cornice above the counter are five more eye-level cabinets, perfect for canned goods, jars, boxes of cereal, pasta, and the like in the luxury yacht.

In the three-stateroom layout, the galley is about half this size, yielding just enough space for another small stateroom with bunksin the luxury yacht. Personally, I’d opt for the two-stateroom layout and leave the kids at home for the weekend. But in either configuration, the layouts of the master and guest staterooms are the same; both are big and bright with three-sided access to double berths in boat.
Located beneath the raised helm, the guest stateroom offers at least 6'6" headroom and more than ample sitting headroom above the berth. Guests will appreciate the privacy of the adjoining head, which allows entry from the stateroom or (as a day head) directly from the main passageway in yacht .

Teak soles in the head and the separate shower area add a classy touch, as does the polished glass countertop, complete with a household-size under-mount stainless steel modern  sink. Above the sink there’s a mirrored panel that serves as a door to the medicine cabinet, and when the panel is slid to the side, it also covers a porthole, offering privacy to anyone using the facilities in luxury yacht.

If you’re a boatbuilder, one of your most difficult challenges is knowing when to replace a model. After all, designing a new boat is a costly endeavor, to say the least. Way before fiberglass meets resin, you’ll have spent at least a million dollars in design, tooling, and testing. To make sure you get that money back, plus a nice profit, you need to build and sell as many of each model as you can.

But if you keep a model in the line-up too long, sales will begin to slide, and before you know it, you and your dealers are left with a lot of boats Azimut that no one wants. On the other hand, if you pull the plug on a model too soon, you’ll leave money on the table. The secret to finding the sweet spot between these two extremes consists of one part knowing your buyers, one part knowing your competition, and one big part being a good guesser.

Main Deck



A three-panel sliding glass door separates the cockpit from the internal part. The panels slide behind the sofas, concealing them and freeing the communicating space between Azimut interior and exterior.
An extremely original layout characterizes the Azimut 82's main deck: a long corridor with a doussie wood floor leads toward the bow, reserved for the main helm station and a large chart area alongside the helm seat.
Entering the saloon and moving along the long corridor we come to the main rooms used for the principal daytime activities: saloon/living area and TV area, lunch area and galley, completely separated from the rest of the rooms.

The three areas in the Azimut boat are lighted by large windows that run along the deckhouse for a length of about 3 meters.
The saloon is an intimate, cozy area furnished with a large elevating TV. For the first time the TV is also visible in the lowered position, since it is hidden only by a dark glass that disappears when it is switched on and makes it possible to enjoy the panorama outside at the same time thanks to the large mirrored window.
