Azimut Yachts 50 Fly

A striking yacht with unusually large salon windows, the Azimut 50 Flybridge is a three stateroom Italian yacht with Azimut’s signature vertical hull windows and a decidedly broad bow area. The extended flybridge measures nearly 200 square feet in size, and the bow has a six-person bench seat in addition to the sun pad. Below decks, a U-shaped settee sits to starboard with a wood table at its center. Another settee is to port in the salon, and the raised lower helm is forward to starboard. Contrary to current trends, the galley is down rather than aft in the salon. Storage is scarce and countertop space is extremely limited. The full-beam owner's cabin is amidships and the VIP cabin is at the bow, as is the second guest cabin with two Pullman berths. The Azimut 50's cockpit is completely shaded by the flybridge overhang and a U-shaped lounge runs the length of the transom. Aft crew quarters are optional. A hydraulic swim platform is standard. The squared bow not only allows more internal volume, but also protects the deck and sun pad from sea-spray while cruising. Volvo 725hp D11 diesels cruise the Azimut 50 at 26–27 knots (30+ knots top).
