The Azimu T

Boasting stylish Italian design and craftsmanship as well as the largest fybridge in its category, the A imut raises the bar in its class.

he new Azimut 66 perfectly incorporates the brand’s finest ingredients, starting from the exterior profile. In keeping with Azimut’s tradition, the model remains graceful and sporty, but offers more volume and surface area.

The standout feature is obviously the flybridge, the largest in its category, with three different areas for entertaining. However, also impressive is the four-cabin layout offering outstanding liveability, as well as the new bar area positioned to the fore of the galley, which is ideal for breakfast or for accompanying the pilot during navigation.

A Hi-Tech Heart

The technological feather in this craft’s cap is its electronic power steering system, the first to be installed on a boat in this class anywhere in the world. With control functions that can be personalised, the owner can regulate wheel turns and steering effort according to speed and piloting style.

On the Azimut 66, carbon fibre is used to laminate the radar arch, hard top, upper forward part of the flybridge and foredeck, which allows volumes and surfaces to be increased in size while keeping the same weight, therefore maintaining excellent levels of dynamic stability.

The integrated Raymarine monitoring system has been customized in order to provide interfaces with as many onboard systems as possible: from the engines data up to the sound system and the air-conditioning regulation. Its functions can be accessed from both helm stations and remotely by tablet.

Cutting-Edge Style

The latest trends from Milan’s Salone del Mobile furniture show have been taken on board, inspiring the furnishing and décor in a style that reflects an exquisitely Italian sense of history, heritage and culture. Examples are the heat-treated oak, elegant figured sycamore and highly prized maple, enhanced with an ultraglossy varnish in the finest tradition of Italian handcraftsmanship.

Turning to the living areas, the main deck contains the salon, which features two roomy counterfacing sofas, large side windows and a

55-inch TV with hi-lo mechanism. The lower deck of the Azimut 66 contains the full beam master cabin with its large ensuite bathroom, the VIP cabin and two twin-berth cabins with enlarged portholes, one with bunk berths, and three bathrooms, all with separate showers. The suite in the centre of the yacht has full-glass windows with no struts and the owner can choose between a vanity area or a chest of drawers to complement the wardrobes. The VIP cabin located in the bow has large windows and offers plenty of storage space, with two slim wardrobes, wall units and more storage space under the bed. Moving to the yacht’s exterior, the most striking feature of Azimut 66 is unquestionably the 28sqm flybridge, which is divided into three separate areas. Next to the helm is a dinette that can be turned into a sunbathing area. In the centre, opposite the wet bar, is the dining area with a table for up to eight guests, while the layout of the stern area can be customised with sofas and sunbathing areas.

The largest in its class, the fybridge has three separate entertainment areas.

Moving forward to the sun-lounging area, which is traditionally large thanks to the trapezoid bow that is a distinctive feature of Stefano Righini’s design concept, we find a large sunbathing area with C-shaped bench seats, to which a bimini top with an automatic opening mechanism can be added. The yacht’s performance is defined by the perfect relationship between weight distribution, wet surface and balance forces. The end result is exceptional handling, with reduced dynamic trim angles in any conditions, soft entry and superb performance at sea. Fitted with CAT C18 –1150 mHP engines, the Azimut 66 can reach a maximum speed of 32 knots.

The 320 Vantage made its debut at the 2015 Miami International Boat Show having earned itself an Innovation Award in the Deck Boats category from the National Marine Manufacturer’s Association (NMMA). 2015 was the third consecutive year that Boston Whaler received an Innovation Award.

“The Vantage series has always been about multi-functionality, offering a new view on the possible,” said Jeff Vaughn, Boston Whaler’s Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Customer Service. “The 320 Vantage expands those possibilities even further, with sophisticated design solutions and comfort-minded features that make the boat as well suited for serious fishing and watersports activities as it is for leisurely cruising and entertaining.”

The latest and largest of the company’s Vantage series, the 320 offers plenty of flexible seating that can be arranged in an impressive variety of configurations for seating, sunbathing and socializing.

For example, the portside companion area features two spacious benches with multiple configurations. They can be arranged facing forward or aft, combined to form a huge sun lounge, with bolsters up, with or without the aft ottoman engaged, and more. You can see a few examples of the configurations in the pictures on these pages.

In addition, the forward seat is electrically actuated and can be used with bolsters up while running. The roomy open bow is another graciously designed space, with amenities including a large integrated cooler and lounges with back- and armrests.

For entertaining, the cockpit utility center with electric grill, fridge and sink can feed a crowd, and can be optioned as a complete fish prep station.
