What if you’re a boatbuilder and publicly draw a line in the sand to not build past a certain length? But then a new design comes along that is so compelling that you just have to break your own rule.

At Palm Beach, the yacht’s designers showed initial renderings of the largest-ever Azimut. Marijana Radovic and Marco Bonelli of Milan-based m2atelier were responsible for the interior and Alberto Mancini did the exterior.

Mancini, a veteran yacht designer, told Robb Report that this was only the second yacht of hundreds in his career where he was given carte blanche over the exterior, so it ended up morphing past 40 meters into the Grande 44M. Typically, he said, the shipyard gets involved with the details of the design, and most owners want to have a say, so most designs end up as compromises. This time, says Mancini, Azimut not only left him alone, but let him go wild.

And he did.

The yacht itself is revolutionary in some ways, with a 550-square-foot upper deck that can be converted into an owner’s space—the owner’s “enclave”—with two primary suites and a forward glassed-in area that works as an office or dining room, with the world’s best view. Its four stern decks are tiered, emphasizing large exterior spaces and easy movement between the interior and exterior spaces.

Then there’s the 12-person dining table on the aft cockpit above a swimming pool with a transparent window looking out over the ocean. This optical illusion is one of several wow factors, but mostly the yacht overwhelms with quiet luxury.

Radovic and Bonelli said their goal was to create a simple interior with muted tones and splashes of color, as part of the Azimut DNA. The pair are not yacht designers, so brought a new approach from their residential architecture and private clubs to the design.

“We wanted to clean up the space and enhance it, not overwhelm it,” said Radovic. “For instance, we designed the dining table to be a reflection of the pool, and in every case, we made sure to follow what was happening on the exterior.”

Bonelli added that the goal was to “enhance the flow” between the interior and exterior. “It seems simple, but there’s a lot of effort to finding that balance,” he said.

The shipyard also focused on the technical components of the build, claiming that it will produce 10 to 30 percent fewer fuel emissions than yachts of the same size and displacement. Federico Ferrante, president of Azimut Americas, said the 44M will have a hydrodynamic wing under the dual-mode hull that provides better fuel efficiency at the same speeds. “It also reduces the pitch—the annoying movement of the boat—and smooths out the wake,” said Ferrante.

The 44M also has lithium batteries that allow it to run the boat’s hotel (non-propulsion) load for 4 hours during the day and eight hours at night, at anchor. The vessel also has two electric generators in the shafts that recharge the batteries when under way. “Most yachts typically run their diesel generators 24/7, which causes lots of noise, emissions and cost,” said Ferrante. “This system cuts that in half.”

The 44M’s molds are being constructed at Azimut’s Livornia shipyard in preparation for the first build. The first five units have been sold to current Azimut owners.

Best Azimut yachts: 7 of the finest models from the famed Italian yard

• Top stories

Azimut Yachts is one of the biggest names in Italian boating. We round up 7 of the best Azimut yachts that we’ve tested over the years.

Famed on both sides of the Atlantic for effortless Italian style and breathtaking performance, Azimut Yachts has been at the forefront of motorboat innovation for more than 50 years now.

And since 1985, Azimut’s range has been part of the Azimut-Benetti Group – one of the world’s largest yachting brands.

Over the years we’ve taken the helm of dozens of the best Azimut yachts, but here are some of the most memorable examples.

7 of the best Azimut yachts

Azimut atlantis 34.

Azimut is famed for its larger flybridges , but the way the yard distilled this luxury essence into a 33ft package in 2013 was arguably one of their most impressive achievements to date.

The smallest Atlantis in the range and one of the smallest Azimuts ever built, the Atlantis 34 charmed our reviewer Nick Burnham with its “pared-back, minimalist vibe”.

“The Atlantis 34 has to walk a tightrope between offering proper Azimut quality while also competing with boats that might be deemed a rung or two below it,” he added. “So, has it succeeded? Hell yes!”

Read more about the Azimut Atlantis 34

Launched in 1999, the Azimut 42 flybridge stood the test of time so well that we went back for a second look 14 years later as part of our Used Boat series.

Early models will look a little dated due to the choice of interior fabrics, explains our reviewer Greg Copp, but the exterior has aged like a fine Chianti.

The visibility from the lower helm is excellent, he adds, even if there isn’t standing headroom, but it’s the upper helm that really sets this boat apart, giving the full wind-in-your-hair Azimut driving experience.

Azimut Magellano 43

Azimut describes its Magellano range as hybrid boats, but for once the term doesn’t relate to the power system. In this instance, it refers to a hull designed specifically to run comfortably at low speed, yet still have the ability to reach higher speeds when required.

Launched in 2013 and dubbed as the Range Rover of the seas, the Azimut Magellano 43 was the third model in the range after the Magellano 50 and 70.

Our reviewer Dave Marsh praised its smooth riding and easy manoeuvrability, as well as its luxurious interior and sturdy build quality.

Moving into core Azimut territory now, the 58 was launched in 2008 with a price tag just a shade under £1million.

“Around this price bracket, wonderful things start to happen inside,” explained our reviewer Dave Marsh.

A single-level saloon and galley and a full-beam amidships owner’s cabin are just the start of the Azimut 58’s story.

Lashings of real leather trim and acres of solid limed oak woodwork add up to create a feeling of unbridled luxury and outstanding quality.

Read more about the Azimut 58

The S6 is one of the most celebrated models in Azimut’s current collection, having scooped up a much-coveted Motor Boat Award in 2021.

It was the fine balance between luxurious accommodation and performance that impressed our reviewer Alan Harper so much.

This is achieved largely through extensive use of carbon fibre in the superstructure – the entire deckhouse, stern, transom and main deck aft of midships is built from this super-light material.

The result is a full-load displacement of less than 30 tonnes and a top speed just a whisker over 35 knots.

Read more about the Azimut S6

Fun in the sun: the Azimut 62S was a joy to handle on our 2006 test drive.

After decades of focussing solely on flybridges, Azimut launched its S range of large sportscruisers in 2004, and it really hit the sweet spot in 2006 with the Azimut 62S.

After taking a test drive, Alan Harper reported: “Acceleration is exceptional (zero to 30 knots in 24 seconds), the turning circle is commendably tight, and far from digging in, the bow showed no inclination to do anything except pull the rest of the boat round as quickly as possible.”

The accommodation is as lavish as you’d expect from a 62ft boat with only two cabins. The dedicated galley can be turned into a third cabin, but squeezing more cabins in is simply not the Azimut way.

Read more about the Azimut 62S

The hydraulic swim platform has a 500kg lift capacity.

We place a lot of emphasis on facts and figures in our industry-leading boat tests , but the Azimut 64 was so much fun to drive that Alan Harper briefly forgot about all that when he got behind the wheel back in 2011.

The straight-line acceleration of this twin Caterpillar C-18 driven monster is such that he reckoned it could outdo a Pershing 64 in a drag race.

35-tonne, three-cabin family cruisers have no right to perform this well, but then again Azimut has never paid much attention to the rule book!

Read more about the Azimut 64

Azimut Magellano 66

Recently refreshed for 2021, the Azimut Magellano 66 is a design that has stood the test of time. We tested the original model back in 2016 and Dave Marsh was impressed by its contemporary styling, modern exterior and acres of storage space.

“If the intention of the Magellano 66 was to bridge the gap between so called ‘serious’ trawler yachts from the likes of Grand Banks and Fleming, and the more avant-garde trawlers from the high volume production builders, then the Italian company has succeeded brilliantly,” he added.

Monaco Yacht Show 2024: The Biggest, Boldest and Most Expensive Superyachts To See

Even in its 33rd year, Monaco Yacht Show continues to break its own milestones.

By Ellys Woodhouse and Toby Louch

The principality of Monaco has a calendar that’s filled with major events. While the financial benefits of this little tax haven ensure its population remains fairly well stocked with super-rich and socialites year-round, it’s these events that truly bring the masses. April calls for the tennis at The Rolex Monte-Carlo Masters; in May it’s time for the Formula One Grand Prix ; June brings the world-famous car show Top Marques ; and summer draws to a close with perhaps the most glam of the bunch, the Monaco Yacht Show, which this year falls on September 25 – 28.

For those interested in gazing upon some of the finest yachts that can be found anywhere in the world, Monaco ’s Port Hercules is a pretty good spot year-round, but for the weekend of the Monaco Yacht Show, things enter a different league.

The Monaco Yacht Show is essentially a gathering of the global superyacht community. From owners to innovators, manufacturers and brokers, all head to the principality. Each year, builders and brokers present around 120 superyachts and 60 luxury tenders , with many of these reflecting current industry trends and revealing the potential future direction of the industry. These vessels boast an average length of around 160 ft, with a sprinkling of superyachts that top the 320 ft mark – with this year’s headliner clocking in at 400 ft.

Aside from the yachts themselves, visitors can expect countless designers improving yacht interiors and engineers working to ensure the industry becomes more sustainable. There’s sure to be a lot going on.

So ahead of this year’s event, Elite Traveler has looked into which yachts will be on display at Port Hercules and curated a list of some of the show’s unmissable vessels. So blow the dust off your Panama hat and add a few zeros to your credit card limit, because these are some of the biggest, boldest and most expensive boats attending the 2024 Monaco Yacht Show.

How Louis Vuitton Made the America’s Cup the Voyage en Vogue

The undisputed biggest headline of this year’s show – in every sense of the word – Lürssen’s Kismet will be the largest yacht to go on display in Port Hercules. While the previous title holder was another from Lürssen, the 377.6-ft Ahpo, the Kismet takes its victory by a considerable mile, clocking in at 400 ft. Previously known as Project Jag, the Kisamet was handed over to owner Shahid Khan in May 2024, making it one of the show’s newest deliveries, too. 

With exterior design by Nuvolari Lenard and naval architecture by Lürssen Yachts along with Reymond Langton Design working on the yacht’s interiors , Kismet is decked out with a helipad, beauty salon, indoor and outdoor cinema, dance floor and gym. Perhaps unsurprising, but all this makes Kisamet one of the most expensive yachts to charter , too, asking for €3m (approx. $3.4m) per week with Cecil Wright & Partners.

Why Northeastern Spain is the Finest Family Destination

Delivered in 2019 by SilverYachts and refitted in 2024, the almost 280-ft, self-described ‘sports activity vessel’ Bold takes center stage at Monaco Yacht Show 2024. Designers Espen Øino created the superyacht’s striking, military-inspired exterior, creating a unique glass-enclosed loft on the upper deck that covers over 3,200 sq-ft of interior space. Meanwhile, Vain Interiors has created an opulent, New York-style loft, which is built to accommodate up to 12 overnight guests in eight luxurious staterooms and can carry up to 96 passengers while cruising.

With a a huge selection of water toys, a vast outdoor entertaining area with a bar and Teppanyaki grill, a cinema, an eight-person hot tub and a lounge surrounding a firepit, it’s no surprise that the Bold is a popular charter yacht, with Holl Robinson asking €875,000 ($972, 800) per week. 

Following an extensive, three-year rebuild, the most expensive superyacht on the market has returned to Port Hercules for 2024, complete with a new look – and price tag, too, asking for €295m ($328m). The 344.5-ft Oceanco H3 superyacht has already picked up a handful of international awards for the new look and is expected to impress many fans at Monaco Yacht Show 2024. 

In addition to the extra 10 meters that were added to the H3 ’s hull, the rebuild – from the likes of Reymond Langton Design, which worked on both the exterior and interior redesign, and the collaboration between Lateral Naval Architects and Oceanco on its naval architecture – also saw a pool deck, huge spa and wellness area and climate-controlled winter garden added to H3 ’s numerous amenities.

With its distinctive, shark-like exterior design, the 295-ft superyacht DAR will be hard not to miss at Monaco Yacht Show 2024. Built by Oceanco with exteriors designed by Luiz de Basto Design, the glossy black silhouette was inspired by the look of the hammerhead shark, with sinuous lines, wide set wing stations and a mast modeled after a dorsal fin. 

Meanwhile, renowned Italy-based studio Nuvolari & Lenard has crafted swooping, contemporary interiors. DAR’s impressive features include a complete owner’s deck, complete with a private salon and jacuzzi, a wellness area, an impressive beach club, and two helipads for private use. Offering grandeur and complete privacy in equal doses, DAR can accommodate up to 14 guests in overnight accommodation, with separate living quarters to host as many as 31 crew members.

Despite only hitting the waters in June this year, the first wallywind110, Galma , is set to make its global debut at Monaco Yacht Show 2024. Measuring almost 110 ft, Galma ’s naval architecture comes from German studio judel/vrolijk & co while interior and exterior lines are designed by Wally in collaboration with Santa Maria Magnolfi. With a design that offers the comfort of a cruising yacht while maintaining the performance of a racing boat, Galma is characterized by the 22.6-ft telescopic keel and an all-carbon hull that has been painted in light metallic blue.

Other highlights of Galma include an 860-sq-ft full-beam cockpit with seating and dining for up to 15 people, as well as an open-plan raised saloon. Galma can accommodate up to eight guests overnight, with five crew members.

SUSTAINABILITY

With Seadeck, innovation and design come together to create the most technological and advanced yacht designed by Azimut until now. Natural, recycled or recyclable materials such as cork, Econyl and PET ,represent some of the pillars of the new Gentle Era undertaken by Azimut. Exterior and interior design elements communicate in a fluent environment, breaking down the barriers and creating a boat of timeless beauty, with a gentle essence. Seadeck is the world’s first family hybrid yacht series. This supremacy has been achieved thanks to careful research and product development, which have enabled the creation of a yacht series that is highly energy efficient, environmentally and fuel efficient, without renounce performance.

A surprisingly spacious and versatile stern area introduces the new concept of the Fun Island, an unprecedented open-air lounge au fil de l’eau, designed to experience the large spaces in total freedom and comfort. The entire Main Deck is transformed into a large space that offers the possibility of interacting with everyone, even with those in the water, breaking down the last physical and social barrier. It is the real and symbolic space of «fun». The Fun Island is completed by two opening wings and an aft platform that reveals a large staircase that descents into the water.

Boundaries are broken down and life on board redefined, without obligations and restrictions. Thanks to the unique connection between cockpit and water and the openings in the stern, the spaces seem wider and the transition between inside and outside is smoother. The hull windows immerse themselves in the colouring of the broadside and emphasise the purity of the styling.

The design is quiet, peaceful, taking you to an oasis of peace. The keyword is gentleness. The interiors are characterised by timeless, enduring beauty, with neutral colours and simple finishes. The gentle, light, open-pored materials used for the boat’s interior give a feeling of relaxation and calm. Cork, an ancient, Mediterranean material with its many properties, is used for the exterior flooring. Econyl, made from recycled nylon, is used for carpeting due to its softness.

Our advanced toolkit

The Seadeck 6, introduces the debut of an innovative system that allows both zero-emissions at anchor and cruising with the generator off while powering the main ob-board consumers, further reducing consumption. This system, called Mild Hybrid Zero Emission Hotel Mode, is based on a 42-kWh lithium battery pack and an alternator connected to one of the three engines. The zero-emission autonomy at anchor, depending on the weather conditions, can reach up to 4 hours during the day and 8 hours at night. During navigation, the generator can be kept off with the main 220V consumers, such as the stabilizer and air conditioning, in operation for up to 8 hours.

The innovative naval architecture developed by the Azimut R&D Department in collaboration with NAMES is the most effective ever built by the Shipyard, made to maximize the efficiency of the Seadeck 6 at its most frequent cruising speeds. Compared with standard planning hulls, the hull of the Seadeck 6 is wider at the stern and more streamlined at the bow, allowing it to begin hydroplaning sooner, therefore reducing drag at lower speeds. This advanced solution broadens the speed range at which the Seadeck 6 can navigate at peak efficiency while ensuring a smooth, pleasant ride.

Azimut’s pioneering use of carbon fiber extends beyond pure performance. Azimut, in fact, has accrued experience in lightening its boats through the extensive use of this material, which is produced in-house by the Shipyard. Applying the accumulated insights of the R&D Department to maximize the carbon fiber content, Azimut laminates 40% of the Seadeck 6’s surface in the high-performance lighter material – such as the deckhouse, roof, wings, bathing platform, and most of the main deck, from the saloon amidships to the aft, including the Fun Island – in order to optimize the weight of the boat and therefore contributing to fuel consumption and emissions reduction.

The Seadeck 6 can be equipped with 10 square meters solar panels installed on the deckhouse, resulting in a total power of 1410Wp. The energy generated by the solar panels contributes to charging the battery pack, lowering CO2 emissions even further.

Azimut also extends its research and implementation of more sustainable solutions to materials, introducing alternatives of natural origin, recycled or recyclable, chosen also for the advantages they offer in terms of performance. The Seadeck 6 introduces for the first time on board the MarineCork cork by Sace Components, used for the external decking in place of traditional teak. A 100% natural resource, which can be extracted several times without damaging the tree and which, in addition, stands out for being up to 40% lighter than teak, fire resistant and waterproof.

The quest to find sustainable alternatives penetrates the surface, arriving at the core of the yacht: for the first time, the 30% of the Seadeck 6’s structure is made of R-PET. R-PET has been used for the core of the bulkheads and for 75% of the internal deck, equivalent to approximately 15,000 plastic bottles recovered and reused to replace traditional PVC, guaranteeing the same efficiency and reducing the amount of virgin plastic used in the construction of the yacht.

Persistent investment in the research and implementation of advanced technologies and sustainable materials has allowed the Seadeck Series to be the shipyard’s first to obtain the RINA GREEN PLUS GOLD class certification for its environmental performance, even in its standard configuration.
