Azimut to debut Verve 48 at Cannes

Azimut has confired that it debut the Verve 48 along with the Magellano 60 at the Cannes Yachting Festival, which will also mark the in-water premiere of the S7 sportbridge model that was unveiled at the Boot Dusseldorf indoor show in January.

An upgrade of the Verve 47, the Verve 48 reveals new developments by Azimut and Francesco Struglia, who designed the interiors and exteriors. The stern area is completely new, larger and integrated with two ladders to easily get into the water, while the yacht features a drop-down bulwark on the port side.

The Verve 48 also reveals a new hard top that’s available with an opening tempered glass insert, which reduces weight and lets in light and air, even at anchor.

Powered by three 600hp Mercury V12s, the Verve 48 can reach up to 50 knots, while fuel consumption during cruising speeds has been reduced by 15 per cent and noise has been reduced by up to 10 decibels compared to the Verve 47.

Azimut Magellano 60

The Magellano 60 is the new entry model for a range that includes the upgraded Magellano 66, Magellano 25M and flagship Magellano 30M.

The new model features an efficient Dual Mode semi-planing hull and is the first Azimut to be used with HVOlution biofuel, which combined to produce a well-to-wake reduction in CO2 emissions of more than 80 per cent compared to a yacht of comparable size powered by diesel.

Designed by Ken Freivokh, who worked on earlier Magellano models and the more recent 25M and 30M, the Magellano 60 features the aft teak louvres on both sides that have become the series’ signature.

Features include an ‘infinity terrace’ in the aft cockpit, an aft galley and a forward saloon area with a starboard dining area with a sea view through the large windows.

Azimut S7

The S7 features an exterior by Alberto Mancini and is the first Azimut to feature an interior by Yachtique. Joining a sport yacht series featuring S6, S8 and S10 models, the 22m S7 is part of Azimut’s Low Emission Yacht family, combining a hull designed with by P.L. Ausonio Naval Architecture with the efficient propulsion of three Volvo IPS engines.

Azimut says the S7 has up to 30 per less consumption and CO2 emissions at the most frequent speeds of use compared to a boat of the same weight and size with a traditional hard-chine hull and shaft line. Marine Italia represents Azimut in Hong Kong, Macau, Guangdong, Taiwan and Singapore.
