The builder

The world's best-selling premium motor yachts.

Azimut is the best-selling premium motor yacht brand in the world. Founded in 1969 by Paolo Vitelli, the Italian marque turned bold design and constant innovation into a range that stretches from sporty day cruisers to 40-metre tri-deck flagships.

As the driving force of the Azimut-Benetti group, the world's largest private yachting group, Azimut is known for pushing technology forward, from carbon-fibre construction to low-emission hybrid yachts, always wrapped in unmistakable Italian style.

Innovation

The innovator of Italian yachting

For five decades, Azimut has done things first. It brought carbon fibre to production yachts, reimagined the flybridge, and today leads the way in efficient, lower-emission cruising with its Seadeck range.

That appetite for innovation, combined with a designer's eye, is why Azimut sells more premium motor yachts than any other brand in the world.
