Azimut 60

Onboard the Azimut 60

The Azimut 60 reads as a compact flagship rather than a starter yacht: 18.5 metres of low, sporting deck line, a cockpit built for al fresco dining, and a cruising speed of around 30 knots that makes distant coves and neighbouring bays reachable within the same afternoon. Three cabins keep the layout genuinely private for up to 10 guests, which suits couples travelling with close friends or a small family group who want their own cabin doors rather than a shared saloon at night.

On a day out, the aft table becomes the natural centre of the charter: lunch served course by course while the yacht is anchored off a quiet stretch of coast, conversation carrying on well after the plates are cleared, no rush to move on until the group decides. The Azimut 60's speed also opens up multi-stop routes along the European coastline that slower boats cannot cover in a single day, so a morning swim spot and an evening bay for drinks can both fit into the same booking.

For guests weighing this yacht against larger tonnage, the appeal is proportion: enough size for three cabins and a proper dining setup on deck, but still nimble enough to tuck into smaller harbours and shallower stretches of water that a 40-metre superyacht would avoid. Charter terms, including day-rate structure and any applicable APA, are confirmed with the broker at the time of booking, along with guest numbers and any preferred embarkation point along the Europe base.
