€3,150,000 Yacht Tour : Azimut 78

[@paulraggett7837]

I have never been on one. And probably never will. But your style of presentation backed up with your passion and knowledge make this my go to channel for a break from the everyday grind. Thank you. Wishing you every success for the future.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

It's kind of you to say so Paul, thank you. :)

[@alexarcano]

Love the layout, finally on a boat this size, a way of getting to crew cabins without going outside because, it does actually rain sometimes.

[@largol33t1]

Not to mention waves can splash a little over the edges!

[@MW15962]

Yes, quite a good crew setup on this one. Certainly better than the tiny and dingy cell entered by lifting a seat cushion as you see on some of these boats. Some I've seen even have the toilet in close proximity to the narrow cot, so the "cell" reference is apt, I believe.

[@johnchurchill458]

The forward crew area looks perfect for small kids on a family cruise, while the adults can have some peace and quiet in the guest cabins. Assuming you`re an owner/operator that is.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

That's a very good point, it would make an awesome teenager den, well away from civilisation! :D

[@N330AA]

Ideally you would get an external lock fitted too so they can't come out.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

🤔

[@Wolgasurfer]

@@N330AA hehehe... A "Brig" can be very useful if yo have trouble on board ;-)

[@The_Real_Zaineman]

All great ideas

[@ANathan123]

I love the new style Azimut are going with. I think it works really well for a sporty and elegant looking boat

[@yonatanbenavraham6598]

Nick you are like the Beatles, the hits just keep on coming with spectacular tours of multi million dollar yachts and some very affordable golden oldies. Thank you for the hard work.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Nice analogy, thank you! :)

[@CharleyGeorge]

That is a really well laid out boat. I absolutely love it. I think one of the best for that size so far.

[@Raiko82]

I like, that no mater the weather, you are still giving us the look of those yachts

[@nicbennett6554]

Things I liked; your tour; the foredeck; flybridge; the power 😁 Things I didn’t; layout; styling; VIP cabin next to the crew cabin; all the gold; the weather; day heads downstairs and round a corner. Overall, Nick you’re too good for that boat and have shown us far nicer!

[@TheCryptonomatron]

I now like these videos prior to watching them because I know I will enjoy every single one of them in advance. Thanks Nick for all the effort.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very welcome :)

[@sevennation2000]

Probably my favourite one so far

[@The_Real_Zaineman]

Nick, This yacht to me is a breath of fresh air. I really like the layout of this yacht because it is different from most other yachts. The passageway downstairs in both the crew area and the guest and owner accommodations are examples of this. I can only imagine what you could with the crew area space you were a competent owner operator. Imagine the possibilities of changing that area.

[@TheBarnacleBlimp]

Come off it Nic, you are showing us round the new tardis and not a 78 foot boat! It has so much to offer and no noticeable shortcomings, apart from the gold trim, very reminiscent of 90's Caravan and motorhomes? But then that is my take on it. Again you have set the standard for boat tours with excellent product knowledge, charm, passion and inquisitive vidiography. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You're very kind! :)

[@visionist7]

Finally a boat where the crew don't have to get wet to go into the accomodations. That cabin is definitely an extra guest cabin to me, so the boat sleeps eleven... and the huge saloon/dinette can take it! I like the galley and dinette at the helm, good use of space and makes the whole main deck feel like a house rather than a boat. Not great rearward visibility from the interior helm though. The day head is also miles away below decks... Maybe a slightly smaller saloon could accommodate a day head between the saloon and galley/wheelhouse. Cheers to the foredeck dinette, but jeers to the lack of tender garage. It would eat up all the headroom in the engine room though.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Extremely rare indeed to find a tender garage on a sub 80ft flybridge yacht.

[@visionist7]

@@AQUAHOLIC why is it that flybridge boats usually lack a garage, but sports cruisers without a flybridge often have one?

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Sportscruisers are ‘fun’ boats, low, sleek, big sun pads and deck areas, so less accommodation focussed. Flybridge cruisers are about accommodation and facilities so the priorities change.

[@christophercordasco1739]

The benefit of a blustery day is a better appreciation of the boat's lighting and how it might look at night

[@kokomo9764]

Nick, I see the loose cap rail gave you pause, but you carried on as a true professional. Very nice boat. Well done!

[@Trevor_Austin]

What a lovely cabin. The design is well above average. I bet the chefs/cooks on the boat also enjoy the location of the galley.

[@rx7dude2006]

Tons of room on just a 78ft yacht, very nice!Love the crew area in front makes so much more sense.

[@xMcNuggetBuddy]

A beer in hand, Friday night and Aquaholic. Awesome.

[@Knee-ko]

That is a lot of boat crammed into 78ft. Nice work Nick.

[@DeadDave]

It's always so interesting to see the different types of layouts and configurations within each Yacht. Thank you.

[@bendixon2898]

Nick keeps the delights coming, now my favorite channel. Cheers and goodonyah Nick.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thanks Ben! :)

[@dianewalker4633]

I'm in love with this boat

[@lewisariki6396]

The lighting on the steps are beautiful!

[@ath5929]

I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the layout but it is super nice to see a shipyard developing the yachting industry by doing something new and brave. Amazing what they can fit on a sub 80-foot yacht! Also, as a none native English speaker your vocabulary and describing phrases are marvelous to listen to as well as really educative, thank you for that!

[@robertfrost1683]

Love the boat ! Crew area is very nice ! Squeaky Floors !!! Pet peeve !! Love the Off center berth in the VIP - A Azimut Signature item ( I Like the Navetts 52) The TV hidden in the Mirror is a nice touch and to include the Bose Soundbar Primo !. You can see what the Volvo IPS can do for space savings on boats ! To me three engines are much more expensive to maintain than Twins - - 50% more for any maintenance. But the space savings on this model for machinery spaces is impressive. And when you buy a boat, you are buying volume - so I see the trade off.

[@martigrey5872]

This looks so much better than the Tesla truck so thanks for a video of something nice today.

[@Dunstire]

A wheelie bin looks better than the Tesla truck and probably is more resistant to having stones thrown at it!

[@theoriginalonion7545]

Marti Grey 🤣🤣🤣

[@belgianboatguy1]

i love the new lay-out with the separable crewcabin its nice to see some change against all previous ships of this size

[@davidfrank2824]

They make one hell of a boat. When we traded ours in we really missed it. Even though we went up inside it just did not have to fit and trim as an Aizmut. We are talking about going back with them next spring. They have a lot better selection of larger boats than they had in the past. Good job on pointing out all the features. I know doing it outside in the rain does not make for a good day. Look forward to your video on the 8 that you pointed out in your video.

[@RusstafaB]

Great boat thanks for the review on a particularly unpleasant day out in Cannes.

[@simongood9460]

Another wonderful Tardis. Love to see what Azimut squeeze into one of their 30m boats. Not sure I'd like to man the helm whilst the Galley was in use, but great for your guests

[@kingkea3451]

Normally I don't like gold accents or marble in yacht designs, but they hit a really nice balance with this boat!

[@skilledlad7070]

I like the style of these boats very much sir and you do a great job of showing us them keep up the goodwork

[@fencer39]

Hey Nick....you gotta start asking Camelot for some commission because I bet I'm not the only person buying lottery tickets on the back of you reviews ! Another great review btw

[@bryduhbikeguy]

I like this boat quite allot.It seems very well laid out.You don't see any usable spots blank.I imagine it's easy to strap a tender on the rear bathing platform as well.Great size and range for a week's tour of the Caribbean with family,or a few friends.

[@pwindle]

Thank you for your "Miele". You know that this is now a drinking game while watching your videos, right?

Absolutely! :D

well that was another great tour, interesting how the crew area is at the front but still very functional and stylish, i'll take 2 haa, well done Nick

[@suunto61]

I have appreciated your reviews more and more watching the artistic fluff from others

[@chrish2996]

Hi Nick. I do like the crew area. Not sure about having the galley as part of the helm station. There's a lot of boat, plenty of style and 3000hp which you would expect for italian builder. You have a great job nick, always appreciate your video tours.

[@adamchurchill9161]

You were right it looked much bigger than 78ft on the inside styling was great

[@lonniebowers6933]

Nice boat. I just looked at this boat on Boat Tube & didn’t like the tour then realized you had the exact boat tour so I watched yours & it was absolutely exceptional as always. I really appreciate the way you do your boat tours & show the engine room. You really know your stuff.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

You’re very kind 🙂

[@BHISAO]

It's AMAZING that this is 78 footer it seems so much BIGGER!!

[@teleroi]

Nick, you are simply the best boat tour host.

[@Dobermanator]

If I was ever "using" the galley, most definitely and unintentionally I'm going down those stairs. Looks real big, even in the engine room with three engines.

[@The_Real_Zaineman]

Wow, I went back and looked. Your right ! Even some of the cupboards are located 2 steps down. Very dangerous.

Super nice boat,and of course you make a, ***** presentation Nick,what else could we expect from you,and I was gobsmacked when you down in the engine-room showed us not two...but three Volvo engines,wow that is some serious power plant,Nick. And I have read that the IPS system from Volvo is a very “user-friendly” system,probably something that you now more about Nick. I look forward to the next video from,until then I wish you and your family a very good weekend from a grey dark and rainy Sweden, cheers Nick. :) :) :)

beautifull boat ... nothing is overdone ... and again agreat video sir. a joy to watch

I love the Azimut yachts all of them they are the best I have seen so far. Talk to Google, You Tube and record companys about these yachts they are serious about buying one. I am looking to look. They are the ones with the money. I cannot go any higher than $5,000,000. Relay the message now.

[@teamextras4life270]

Regardless of the weather you still know how to record a extraordinary 📹 video thanks AQUAHOLIC 👍

[@kevinsimm2063]

As you stated Nick you could man this as a owner in effect the " crew cabin " could be used as a teenagers den ? The best boat & layout you've reviewed in a while

[@boldandthebeautifulgimbal2881]

The crew area for a 78 is really impressive! I think it’s 3 times the size of a Princess 95 where I think it’s located at the stern right next to the engine room. Tho I’m not saying Princess don’t make excellent boats but for the size this 78 has a fantastic layout making excellent use of the space.

[@josephdmoran]

WOW Nick I have been going through your less recent videos lately (I watch the recent ones as soon as they are posted and have done so for about a year) and I must say, I am so sorry I missed this one last year. This boat has a layout and configuration that, to me, is quite unique. The utilization of space and the size:power ratio on this one is very impressive. As always, you are AWESOME! Keep it up man, great work!

[@AQUAHOLIC]

Thank you!

Great tour Nick. 9:50 - I thought that was MY kitty. LOL

[@tlstechtalk]

8 guests and 3 crew in a 78 is amazing. Would this be suitable to charter out when owner is not using?

[@kranson8514]

Loved this yatch plenty of room to socialise, black piano curved trim in the helm, the cabins were spacious just enough gold finish not to be ostentatious Azimut really know what their doing here. P.s 100% would lose / gift the green poof on a competitors boat. 😉 my size of boat very nice Nick👏👏👍

[@trevorfillmore698]

I found you channel awhile ago and love watching your tours. I'd have to sell my house for just a down payment for some of these yachts but I love being on the water my boat wouldn't even make the cut as a tinder on them a little 14' 48" cristliner jon boat but it puts me one the fish and that what makes me happy. Love your channel I'm from the east coast of Canada just thought I'd throw that in there most of our biggest boats around here are lobster fishing boats.

[@chrisblackmore1961]

Such an impressive brand! Each one is remarkable in it’s own way. This one reminds me of something I’d see in a science fiction futuristic movie from outer space. Such a great tour. Does the table in the salon transform into a dining table? Bravo!

[@briankovacevich7]

Very cool boat! And I agree, the use of teak in the showers looks great. Is that a small toy garage at the transom?

[@ianbrocklebank3258]

What a cool boat,love the layout and style of it....not quite as sesirable as a Nordhavn but close...

[@clifbradley]

On every Azimut yacht, you have to say 'These is exclusive Achille Salvagni design and you can't buy it in a store.'..'this engine is Achille Salvagni design engine, these screws are Achille Salvagni, thus Wrench is Achille Salvagni and here in the pilot house we have Achille Salvagni design chairs exclusively for Azimut 78 that only come from Azimut, you can't buy it in stores. This anchor is Achille Salvagni as is this chain. Beautiful Achille Salvagni design exclusively for Azimut 78. This ocean water is Achille Salvagni design....'

[@markshutt1476]

One of the best crew areas I've seen. My biggest question is, where do you eat? If the weather, or whatever, keeps you from the fly bridge, and maybe the cockpit, do you put your plate on your lap, or taketurns at the dinette?

[@aksel2316]

this boat fits me perfect, only changes i would make is remove the wooden flooring in the bathrooms and add tiles instead and make a jacuzzi on the flybridge

[@macdchef]

That’s very nice .. lots of space .. nice 1 Nick

[@freddiejohnson6686]

Is it me or was there not a dinning space in side? Also that is a nice boat and nice that the crew space is inside not accessed through the high low platform as in rough sees I would hate having to go out side or If it was raining you would stay dry

[@AQUAHOLIC]

The forward table in the saloon lifts and opens to form a dining table. There is an alternative layout with a proper formal dining table in that area instead, but internal dining areas get little use in the Med, so this set up makes sense for a lot of owners.

[@patrickbrookings]

Wow, what an incredible boat! I totally love the layout and styling. It has this really cool scifi kinda look. Awesome! :) Oh, and yay, Miele!

[@Jcc988]

I think a great feature in the master would be a pull out coffee table under the couch. That way you can have a bottle of wine or champagne with your significant other in peace.

[@chrisnicotra108]

That is a stunning boat. The styling and layout is spot on for the size and price. Just waiting on the euro millions to come up and il be placing our order. Hehe

[@alexis1959]

Gorgeous boat - surprised by the lack of a garage for a dinghy, jetskis and/or water toys

[@Mrsnichols1965]

Massive headroom in the engine room brought to you by the absence of a tender garage. Love it!! I think if I were to spec one of these to buy it (in some other lifetime of course), I'd insist the tender garage opening be water tight and open to the full engine room. But then, my life as a technician on various mechanical beasts drives that view. Interesting observation: exhaust runs right into the pod drive lower unit. I wonder how that affects cavitation? For me it spoils the wonderful noise an engine makes, but I'm sure the guests enjoy the quiet.

[@AQUAHOLIC]

The propellers are forward facing, the exhaust is aft facing so props are in clear water
