Azimut and Atlantis win accolades
New 34 sports cruiser and 43 passagemaker make wavesThe Atlantis 34 (pictured) is Boat of the Year 2012 in the motorboat category and the Azimut Magellano 43 was awarded the Best Passagemaker (40-50 feet) at the recent Active Interest Media (AIM) Marine Group Editor’s Choice Awards.
The Azimut/Benetti Group’s first 10-metre sports yacht, the Atlantis 34 was received favourably by the public at the international boat shows in the Northern Hemisphere. In fact, the 34 was named “Barca dell’Anno” (Boat of the Year) in the Powerboats under-10 metres category by the Italian magazine Vela e Motore.
All the comfort of a people carrier, style and design, a focus on safety, liveable spaces and an outstanding price-to-quality ratio are the keys to the success of this open cruiser. Vela e Motore describes it as a Mediterranean vocation. Or is that vacation?
“It’s a very encouraging sign for a product representing something entirely new for our company, which required a lot of reflection about the company’s strategy in response to the demands of a rapidly changing market,” said Giovanna Vitelli, Corporate Communication Manager at Azimut Benetti Group, during the awards ceremony.
“Receiving further confirmation that we are on the right path is very satisfying for us.
”The yacht has met with a lot of success abroad too. At the recent Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, Azimut Yachts was presented with another important honour by the AIM Marine Group, publisher of some United States’ most authoritative and prestigious boating magazines and organiser of the 2012 Editor’s Choice Award,” Vitelli said.
The Azimut Magellano 43 was declared Best passagemaker among boats of its size (40-50 feet).
