Rumour is that after presentation they sold 8 53 Maine in 2006, and about 12 in 2007. Good days that time for small medium sized builders. <br />Azimut's Magellano on the other side apart having a very original exterior is more of a technical project. Yes its the way of doing things at Azimut as they showed with the S range back in 2003, they like to bring new limits to a style of yacht and push it forward. <br />If you do not know Estensi Maine range I suggest to look around in the internet and google it, they are nice boats.PowerYachthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15688079172026533595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5107347295488607982.post-16580499455649680772013-10-11T19:32:52.868+02:002013-10-11T19:32:52.868+02:00I see what you mean about the design.

I believed Beneteau and Azimut were the first, I was not aware Estensi was the one.Fred, UKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5107347295488607982.post-43887611304149322812013-10-10T10:18:35.205+02:002013-10-10T10:18:35.205+02:00Hello Fred, sometimes a good hull design (one that...Hello Fred, sometimes a good hull design (one that thinks where to put the engines) can overcome this obstacle. I think these new modern trawlers are more of a hybrid, giving what people are asking in general. A trawler with a forward present design attitude. I think the Estensi Maine from Italy where among the first to head into this direction in 2006, Beneteau and Azimut followed, with the newer Grand Banks models just after that. I think this new Cranchi will sell well though....
