Down and Dirty Boating: Azimut 68 Fly at Southampton
Fresh Arrivals at Southampton Boat Show: Azimut's Impressive 68-Footer
Take a closer look at Azimut's badass cruiser at the Southampton show - the Azimut 68 Fly. This beauty is equal parts luxury and power, brimming with light, space, and opulent finishes.
The Azimut 68 Fly is no slouch around the water. Crafted by Pierluigi Ausonio, this medium-V hull is paired with a couple of Volvo Penta 1,000hp IPS-1350s for a top speed of 32 knots. And with a comfortable long-legged cruise at speeds as low as 19 knots, it's perfect for those laid-back days on the water.
But the best part? The weight distribution is on point. Carbon fiber in the superstructure, hardtop, and deck mouldings keeps the weight low and deep, leading to agile handling that's a delight when you step away from the helm.
Step aboard, and you'll find remarkable space and volume. The main deck flaunts an open or closed galley layout, depending on your preference. And if you've got a crew, there's a full-sized flybridge with seating for up to 12 people, plus some handy companion seating to port of the helm.
The two-tier main deck saloon is expansive, offering a choice between open and closed galley options. Head downstairs, and you'll find a fixed four-cabin, three-bathroom lower deck packed with smart features, like cleverly staggered bunks, a spacious port twin cabin, and a midships owner's suite with 6ft 6in of headroom and plenty of floor space. You can even tailor the interior finishes to match your tastes!
