New Model: Azimut 82

The new Azimut 82 presented during the recent Genoa boat show is the replacement for the 80 Carat model, ending the successful top selling 8 years of production of this model from the Italian builder. With a length of over 80 feet and 24 metres, the 82 is Azimut entry level super yacht for the Viareggio Turin group for which this company is an undisputed leader. As all new models presented by the Italian builder, the Azimut 82 is full of new numbers at its side like having the most glassed surface and the most exterior deck space for a yacht of this size. Designers Righini exterior, and Galeazzi interior continue to develop the Azimut trade mark design, with a modern looking outside and inside, with innovative and luxury materials. The interior is the evolution of the recent 85 and 95 presented previously, with a spacious 4 cabin 4 head layout for the owner and his guests, offering 8 or 10 berths. Aft we have the crew quarters, offering 2 cabins and 3 berths with a private head. The hull design for the 82 is also a new project, engineered by SYDAC Pierluigi Ausinio from Genoa, who developed a vee shaped hull with a curious flat dead rise aft of 6 degrees. Performance for the 82 is a respectable 30 knots max, and a full time cruising of 27 knots which give a range of about 400 nautical miles.
