Azimut Yachts in Italy has launched the Fly 62, the eighth model in its range of Fly yachts that spans from 50 to 83 feet long.

The Fly 62—which has a length overall of 63 feet, 8 inches—is scheduled to make its public debut at the Cannes Yachting Festival, which is set for September 10-15 in France.

Azimut says this model’s key feature is a beach cockpit with a transom that opens outward, lowering a sofa and creating a sunbathing area so close to the water “that is unique for a yacht in this segment.”

Additional guest seating is in what’s considered the traditional cockpit space, with shade from the upper deck’s overhang. The upper deck also has guest relaxation areas that are in the sun and shade, in addition to yet another outdoor zone far forward on the main deck that is completely open.

Exterior design is by Alberto Mancini, with the superstructure volume increasing toward the bow. This choice allowed the beach cockpit area to be developed while maintaining overall sporty styling. Mancini also designed the new hardtop, with an eye toward what Azimut calls “hyper-modern lines” that complement the horizontal hull windows.

Interiors on the Azimut Fly 62 are by architect Fabio Fantolino, marking his second project with the shipyard. Fantolino’s goal was to create open spaces that are free of visual obstacles. Renderings from the builder show a combination of white and light neutral tones in the standard décor, with substantial glazing on the main deck that allows for broad views of the outdoors.

Power on this yacht is a pair of 900-horsepower Volvo Penta IPS1200s. Azimut says the maximum speed will be 32 knots, giving the Fly 62 plenty of oomph to cover ambitious itineraries.

Draft is 3 feet, 5 inches, which is low enough to allow for skinny-water cruising.

Azimut is expanding its offerings in Spain: The shipyard also just announced the opening of two Grande Boutiques in Spain, one in Palma de Mallorca and the other in Madrid. As part of this expansion, the locations will offer personal service to owners of Azimut’s Grande Series, which includes models from 85 to 144 feet long. “The Azimut Grande collection is experiencing a wave of great fortune in Spain,” according to the builder. “The recent delivery of a Grande trideck in the Balearics and of a Grande 27m in collaboration with Marina Estrella are testaments to this success.”

For owners in the market for a low-hour, turnkey ready flybridge express cruiser that’s fit for owner-operators or a crewed-yacht experience, HMY Yacht Sales currently has Crimson, a 2023 Azimut 68 Fly, listed for $3.55 million. The 68-footer features a two-berth crew quarters and a four-stateroom, three-head layout that sleeps up to eight. 

Crimson currently has just 45 hours on it and the staterooms have never been used. Something HMY Yachts says makes it, “A magnificent 2023 Azimut 68F, a genuine work of art that’s primed for instant handover. This Azimut 68F is a custom marvel adorned with numerous upgrades…” 

Yachting previously reported that the 68 Fly has three main-deck layout variations, an enclosed, open or aft galley. Crimson features the galley-aft layout, a trait that accentuates this yacht’s ability to accommodate and entertain owners and their guests. 

“Contemporary cut, open-space style and informal touch,” Azimut Yachts says about the aft-galley layout. “Suggesting a smooth connection between interior and exterior ambiences…”

Stepping into the main deck, interior guests will find an L-shaped dinette to starboard, adjacent to the galley. Azimut does a good job of keeping sightlines mostly uninterrupted with low profile hanging stowage in the galley. Other features include:

• Miele induction cooktop
• Miele oven
• Miele dishwasher
• Vitrifrigo ice maker
• Full-size fridge and freezer
• Storage throughout
• White countertops
• Stainless faucet fixture

Forward, lounging and conversation are encouraged with seating flanking the salon amidships. To port is a U-shaped settee and an ottoman while to starboard is a straight three-person sofa. An LG flat-screen TV sits behind the sofa. 

Outdoor entertainment areas on board this Azimut 68 Fly are not in short supply. Take the foredeck, for example. Guests can enjoy sunbathing with a three-person sun pad forward, or cocktails at sunset on the bench seat aft.  In the cockpit, a U-shaped settee backs up to the transom with a fixed table and is shaded by the flybridge overhang above, offering alfresco dining for everyone on board. Pull up a few chairs to fit as many six to eight people. 

The flybridge has three distinct social zones. Aft is a lounge area beyond the hard top, which means more sun than shade throughout the day. Amidships is an L-shaped dinette in case guests want an elevated alfresco dining experience. Forward, a second flybridge lounge pad sits to port directly across from the upper helm station. 

After a fun day of water toys, sunbathing and lounging with friends comes to an end everyone can head belowdecks to enjoy one of the four aforementioned staterooms. Amidships, the full-beam master stateroom has an athwartships walk-around king berth. The forepeak VIP stateroom has a centerline queen berth while the two guest staterooms abaft have twin single berths. 

Twin 1,000 hp Volvo Penta IPS 1350 diesels power Crimson to a reported 32-knot top hop and a 28-knot cruise speed. 

Some other notable features include: 

• Kohler generator
• Seakeeper 18 gyrostabilizer
• Hydraulic swim platform
• Kenyon grill 
• Fusion stereo
• Garmin Platinum package
• Electric bow thruster

Where is Crimson located? The yacht is currently lying in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Five notable yachts just became available for charter in the West Mediterranean, with plenty of time left to book itineraries before the current season is over.

First up is Zazou, a 213-foot Benetti that launched in 2021. It’s new to the charter fleet at Y.CO, with plans to base in the South of France and Corsica. This is the first time that Zazou is being opened for charters, with availability beginning mid-August.

“Ideal for families, she is elegant and sophisticated thanks to her stunning interior,” Sioned Williams of Y.CO Charter Management stated in a press release. Notable features include a gymnasium, treatment room, outdoor cinema and beach club. Accommodations are for 10 guests in five staterooms.

Y.CO also just welcomed the new-for-2024 Benetti Dyna to the charter fleet in the Mediterranean. Dates are available in September and October.

Accommodations aboard Dyna are for 12 guests in six staterooms. Amenities include a main-deck pool, a cinema, a spa and a master stateroom with a private balcony.

“Dyna is a particularly fine example of the B.Now 50m Oasis model,” Yasmine Naitijja of Y.CO Charter Management stated in a press release. “No expense has been spared in the finishes throughout. The spa area is a real onboard highlight, as is the large main-deck pool, while the stylish Novamarine Black Shiver chase boat offers enhanced exploration.”

Also now available in the West Mediterranean is Alma III, a 97-foot Azimut that was just delivered to the owners from the shipyard in June. It’s part of the Fraser charter fleet and will have availability in August from Sardinia.

According to the Fraser team, Alma III is the only Azimut Magellano 30 currently on the charter market. Exterior design is by Ken Freivokh, and accommodations are for 10 guests in five staterooms. The master is full beam on the main deck.

In the IYC charter fleet in Greece, guests can book the 82-foot Maiora El Pecado, which became available earlier this summer. The yacht is a 2014 build that IYC’s team says is in “impeccable condition” with accommodations for as many as nine guests in four staterooms.

Notable features and equipment on El Pecado include low fuel consumption and at-anchor stabilizers for guest comfort.

Also in Greece with IYC is the 107-foot Custom Line My Mistake, a 2023 build that accommodates 10 guests in five staterooms. The IYC team notes that this yacht has a child-friendly setup, meaning it is a good choice for bookings with families.

Top speed aboard My Mistake is reportedly 26 knots, which should make short work of cruising between the Greek Isles while leaving more time for fun at anchor and in harbors.

When does the Mediterranean yacht-charter season end? The high season is over at the end of August, but with nice weather, the cruising in some parts of the region can be terrific well into October.

The Azimut 60 Fly succeeds as a vessel that is equally ready for families who want to play on the water, entertain and do some weekend cruising, all with luxurious flair. The 2020 Azimut 60 Fly Perseverance is currently listed with Alexander Marine USA for $2.199 million. 

Regarding the main deck interior, the salon lounge area is aft with U-shaped settee to port and a bench seat sofa to starboard. The galley is amidships to port with a dinette directly adjacent. The two-seat lower helm station sits forward to starboard. The galley has a number of meal-prep appliances, including a microwave oven, refrigerator, oven and ceramic glass four-burner cooktop. 

Guests can enjoy alfresco dining in the cockpit with the transom bench seat aft and fixed dining table. The flybridge has a second alfresco dining spot with a U-shaped settee to starboard. The foredeck is equipped with both a sun pad and a bench seat, in case some guests want to sun while others want to sip cocktails. 

After a fun day on the water, owners and their guests can retire to one of three staterooms belowdecks. Amidships, the master stateroom has an athwartship queen berth and an en suite head. In the bow, the VIP stateroom has a centerline queen berth and an en suite head. The guest cabin has side-by-side single berths and head access to the guest head in the companionway.  Crew quarters are in the stern with two single berths.

Connoisseurs of high-end travel are always looking for the next best idea. Even at the upper extremes of luxury, there might be a way to tweak this piece or twist that part in a way that creates an even more perfect offering for an audience that wants a certain type of experience. Crewed yacht charter? It’s a fantastic option that already comes in many tantalizing flavors. But what about crewed yacht charter and… all the additional possibilities that last bit might include?

Such is the thinking behind two new initiatives that allow vacationers to experience top-brand yachts in new ways. Motoryachts built by Sunseeker in the United Kingdom and by Azimut in Italy have long been considered prime-quality options for recreation on the world’s waterways. Now they’re available for crewed charter through programs intended to appeal to clients with specific sensibilities.

Crewed charter aboard a Sunseeker 95 in Mallorca, Spain, is now an option for members of ThirdHome, a company whose members share their second and third homes, sort of like a high-net-worth Airbnb. The company has partnered with Meros Yachtsharing, which specializes in the co-ownership of Sunseeker vessels. People who have flex-share time aboard the yacht can now trade it for a stay at a ThirdHome property or vice versa.

“It’s all about the huge rise in interest in the sharing economy and the idea of sophisticated people sharing valuable assets between like-minded individuals, ultimately for the benefit of each other,” according to the ThirdHome team.

Meanwhile, fans of the Azimut brand now have a dedicated point of entry for booking crewed charters aboard Azimut-built yachts. The Azimut Charter Club, announced in January, is kicking off in the Mediterranean this year.

“The philosophy of the Charter Club is to offer a personalized service with attention to the smallest details, guaranteed by the brand’s expertise and the territorial coverage ensured by its extensive network of dealers and partners,” according to the Azimut team. Bookings are available aboard yachts up to 78 feet long, all of them launched within the previous five years.

Of course, Azimuts also remain available for charter through traditional companies whose fleets include yachts from all kinds of builders, but Azimut also aims to bring fans of the brand into contact with its dealers, who will handle check-in and checkout during the charter experience.

“Other models will soon be added, as well as new destinations,” the company says, “to ensure the perfect setting for a summer with family and friends.”

Azimut Charter Club

Yachts that are part of this initiative are as large as 78 feet length overall. Each one is a late-model launch from the previous five years. Guests can book through a portal or work with the Azimut concierge on reservations and legal paperwork. An Azimut dealer handles check-in for charters.

Prime Property

Members of ThirdHome have ­access to private residences, villas and luxury estates in addition to a fully crewed Sunseeker yacht.

The Azimut Yachts Atlantis 45 is a two-stateroom, two-head performance cruiser. Power for the 47-footer is provided by a pair of 480 hp Volvo Penta IPS650 diesels, which gave the yacht a top hop of 35 knots during our time on board. Cruise speed was 28 knots.

There is a lounge pad aft and a dining table abaft the two-seat helm for alfresco meals. Across is a double bench seat that converts to a 16-square-foot lounge pad.

At press time, there were 18 Azimut Atlantis 45s available, ranging from $645,000 to $1.2 million.

From the Archive

“But then, perception of space aboard the 45 is slightly skewed because the companionway is off-center, so what you may suppose to be the middle of the yacht really isn’t. The Atlantis 45 takes the builder’s midsize offerings in a new design direction, one that has proved popular on larger models. For yachtsmen looking for big-boat styling in a family-size express cruiser, the 45 may be worth a look.”

Blue Daksa, a 2013 Absolute 64, is on the market at $998,000. 

Blue Daksa is powered by twin, 900 hp Volvo Penta IPS1200 diesel engines, but reportedly have the performance of 2,400 hp diesel engines due to their pod-drive design. Blue Daksa will reportedly spool up to 36 knots, but dial it back 22 knots and enjoy a jaunt down the coastline. Both of the IPS transmissions have been completely rebuilt as part of several upgrades the previous owners have performed. 

Blue Daksa’s captain can comfortably relax in one of two, electrically adjustable leather helm chairs with footrests at the helm station to starboard. Large windows provide the skipper with a 360-degree view around the yacht. Two side windows open for refreshing breezes. Retract the yacht’s hydraulic hardtop, open the salon’s sliding glass doors and enjoy an open-air environment that flows through to the cockpit. There is a Raymarine glass-bridge helm with three GS165 screens and one E-165 screen with iPhone/iPad integration. Other helm station gear includes:

• Raymarine ST70 autopilot w/ remote
• Raymarine radar
• Raymarine cameras
• Trim tab controls with position indicator
• VHF radio with antenna on roll bar
• Independant GPS sounder
• Volvo Penta IPS joystick and ACP system
• Volvo Penta IPS shift and throttle
• Volvo Penta DPS electronic anchor
• Chain counter display for anchor
• Compass
• Depthsounder and alarm
• Generator control panel
• Bow thrusters w/remote

Abaft the helm station, is Blue Daksa’s salon. There is custom wood cabinetry and a teak sole that glows from the natural light flowing in from the sizable windows to port and starboard, and via the retractable sunroof when opened. Guests can relax on the U-shaped leather sofa to starboard while catching a game at the entertainment center with a retractable flat-screen TV to port. Keep cool with the 10 overhead, and integrated, A/C vents, or lower four electric windows and open the sliding glass door, which completely opens the space to the cockpit.

Allied Marine stated that “Blue Daksa was built by an extremely knowledgeable and detail-oriented owner, who has made very well-planned upgrades to the vessel for cruising pleasure. You will not find a more user friendly, accessible boat. The 64′ boasts a fantastic ride and 360-degree visibility at the helm. She is laid out with upper and lower salons featuring three staterooms, with one stateroom having a customized open layout equipped with an office and convertible bed”.

My favorite space on Blue Daksa is the cockpit. Partially covered by the hardtop, guests have options whether to relax in the shade at the U-shaped sofa with table, or improve their tan on the sunpads. Grab a beverage from the wet bar, while grilling a few burgers for lunch before opening the garage and taking the tender (not included in the sale) out on an excursion to a private beach. Looking for a little more privacy? Walk around to the foredeck and relax on the sun pads covered by a Bimini top or enjoy a sundowner with friends on the forward-facing, cushioned settee with table. Blue Daksa’s decks are very spacious and provide plenty of room to comfortably entertain multiple guests. 

Blue Daksa’s galley is set down, just a few steps from the helm station. The raked windshields above create an atrium effect and the natural light reflects off the custom high-gloss white cabinets, increasing the sense of light and space as you prepare your meals on the stone countertops. The entire belowdecks area has a teak sole. Owners can prepare meals big or small with the four-burner cooktop and built-in convection/microwave oven. Serve breakfast in the lower salon, which is to starboard, directly across from the galley. The L-shaped sofa with table might be the perfect spot for your morning coffee before pulling the hook. The hi-low table can be lowered and covered with cushions, providing additional space for a guest to sleep.     

After a long day on the water, owners and guests can retire to one of three staterooms. The master stateroom has a queen-sized berth with custom sheets and bed covers. Stow your belongings in custom cabinets with drawers and compartments, two hanging lockers or in the drawers of the nightstands. An en suite head is convenient and private with an oversized sink and shower with a glass door and seat. The VIP stateroom also has a queen-sized berth with stowage underneath and drawers along with two hanging lockers. An en suite head provides privacy as they prepare for a formal evening dinner, dressing in front of the two full-length mirrors. Crew quarters could be converted into an additional stateroom and are accessed from the cockpit or master stateroom (custom).  

Where is Blue Daksa located? The yacht is currently lying in North Miami Beach, Florida.

Soul Mates, a 2020 Azimut 60 Fly, is equally at home doing extended island-hopping voyages in the Caribbean, or taking a relaxing jaunt down the coast for a long weekend. This is a one-owner yacht that is ready for its next cruise and is on the market at a reduced price of $1.59 million. 

MarineMax stated that “Soul Mates is a well-cared for, fully equipped boat with extensive premium options tailored for exploring the Florida Keys and the Bahamas.” 

Soul Mates has a solid 79,400-pound displacement, but this yacht can move. Powered with twin Volvo Penta D13 diesel engines, this Azimut 60 Fly will promptly accelerate up to 32 knots. The comfortable cruise speed is around 26 knots. Pull the throttles back to around 21 knots to increase fuel efficiency and extend the vessel’s cruising range to 360 nautical miles. A Seakeeper gyrostabilizer virtually eliminates roll, enhancing cruising comfort. A bow thruster helps during close-quarter maneuvers. 

Owners can entertain several guests on Soul Mates spacious flybridge, aft deck and foredeck. Access to the flybridge is via a set of steps from the aft deck. The flybridge has a fiberglass hardtop that covers the helm to port, cushioned bench-style seats to starboard and a C-shaped dinette abaft the helm. The aft deck is open with sofas to port and starboard, allowing guests to relax underway and soak up the sun. Fire up the barbecue for lunch and enjoy a few beverages too. The flybridge ice maker and refrigerator are built into the wet bar, which is a plus for convenience.

Soul Mates’ cockpit is shaded by the flybridge overhang with a forward-facing, bench-style seat with table and chairs and a teak sole. Guests can relax watching a football game, or easily access the swim platform, foredeck and salon. A swim platform provides seamless water access. Walk up to the foredeck, which has a convertible setup. All the seats convert to sun pads or change it up with a dinette-style layout for sundowners with friends. If the sun gets too hot, the foredeck sun shade sail will help keep the space cool.

Enter the salon through a sliding glass door from the aft deck. Windows flanking the salon allow natural light to flow through the main deck. Guests can relax on sofas to both port and starboard, or enjoy a meal at the dinette to starboard. The dinette is directly across from the galley and the yacht’s designers built in a full-size window, creating panoramic views. A hi-lo table folds open with seating for four adults.   

The galley is cozy and centrally located. It’s equipped with a Miele cooktop and oven, a refrigerator/freezer and wine chiller. An array of cabinets handle stowage for cruising provisions. Upper cabinets over the cooktop and sink were removed to enhance the views through the galley window. 

After a long day on the water, owners and guests can retire to one of three staterooms. The master stateroom has a king-sized berth with an en suite head. Owners will find plenty of stowage space for extended journeys and even a built-in safe. The forepeak VIP stateroom has a queen-sized berth and two additional guests can relax in the third guest stateroom with twin-sized berths. There is a crew space with twin-sized berths, which could also be used for extra stowage or for a couple of teenagers looking for privacy.
