A thirteen meter Azimut flybridge cruiser ended aground in Ringstead Bay off the Dorset Coast on the late morning of Saturday 24 June. Previous to ending aground the Azimut flybridge cruiser caught a lobster pot on its portside propeller, and with the tide outgoing at the time of the incident ended on top of a reef. Visibility was also reported poor that morning going down to less to one hundred meters. The tide was up back afternoon and the Azimut cruiser was reported free from the area.
The Azimut in this grounding is the popular AZ42 as designed by Stefano Righini for exterior and Galeazzi for exterior and produced from 1998 up to 2008 in a hot selling five hundred plus units. The Azimut 42 received the Evolution cosmetic upgrade in the fall of 2004. The AZ42 was a replacement to the AZ40 Quaranta and was replaced by the Azimut 43.
