The Azimut 50 launches next month and this new 15-metre member of the Azimut Yachts Flybridge collection will make its world debut at the 2014 September and October boat shows. Spatially the boat is said to be quite impressive.
The design details are inspired by this season's best seller, the Azimut 80, a clear indication that the Azimut Yachts collection is being revamped.
The designers were tasked with designing a 50-foot vessel reminiscent of the Azimut 80, the model which has proved to be incredibly popular on the international market this year. Designed by Stefano Righini, the exteriors pick up on concepts found in the Azimut 80. Some of the eye catching features include the single mirrored glass window on the deckhouse with similar detailing on the flybridge, the impressive size of the bow area, and the vertical windows on the hull.
The exterior areas are given priority including a sizeable cockpit and big 17.5sqm flybridge that makes it one of the largest in the category.|
Designed by Carlo Galeazzi, the interior includes a saloon, dining area with relaxation area, below deck galley, and a lobby leading to the cabins.
The owner's full-width stateroom is amidships and the VIP cabin is towards the bow. Thanks to the sizeable interior, space has also been found for a third cabin with two pullman beds. The Volvo Penta D11, 670hp straight shaft engines provide a maximum speed of 30 knots and cruising speed of 26-27 knots. The new 50-foot Flybridge will be on the water in June, ready for its debut at autumn boat shows around Europe and the USA.
