That looks like a really beautiful yacht, nice colours and fittings and layout, shows some nice unique features. Nice tour Alex thank you.

[@maryholder3795]

She's a lovely boat nice, her decor is lovely like the textures of the seats and some of walls. The interior and exterior spaces flow nicel, like the galley in particular. Good boat she a nice addition to Azimut fleet.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

I feel your assessment is 'spot on.' Plus, the video tour was both thorough and engaging. Thank you.

[@clifbradley]

Azimut going outside of it's comfort zone again.These are for someone that claims they want a Nordhavn or a Bering, but their last yacht was an Azimut, a Pershing or a Tecnomar. I think 'Azimut lady' was annoyed you called her that. Federico is going to send you a letter now

[@brandonadams7837]

Well, it was quite rude.

[@scubacro5758]

​@@brandonadams7837guy has no respect, if you watch more videos you can see him doing it all the time, just enters a yacht and then starts filming people without asking them can he do that

[@marcoopdam9598]

Als u het brandstofverbruik bedoelt, dan heeft Maurice daarover gezegd dat bij een toerental van 1.800 rpm er een verbruik is van 5,5 liter/uur/motor en dan vaart zij 13 km/uur en dat is zeer netjes voor een boot van deze omvang.

[@hutch3459]

Great review and fantastic boat - that crew cabin is grim though 😂

[@NinoPrez007]

I do agree. Wet head upon Entering doesn't seem so appealing

[@gerhardvanwaltsleben8944]

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

[@lgriestra]

Very good test and comprehensive video.

[@NinoPrez007]

Great video BTW!... That crew quarter is just horrible with the wet head first when walking in. Also no side door out to starboard walkway.

[@SailPalarran]

My problem with so many of these new yacht designs is the vast amount of seating and different areas. I mean really, I don't need 4 different areas to sit on the main deck, three on the fly, and another huge one on the foredeck. Don't misunderstand me, I love some of these, but the whole boat is essentially one huge lounging area. Give me an area to store a few e-bikes, some fishing poles, a great tender, well, actually just give me a traditional trawler like a Marlow of Outer Reef.

[@GTX311]

Exactly. The areas are redundant. What a waste of space. Also, wouldn't it be nice if you can so do some offshore fishing on these "trawlers"?. I can't see any built-in features for fishing. How about longer range on high cruising speeds, too?

[@ianscott3180]

A door next to the helm would be very welcome but appart from that I like it but cannot afford it.

[@MiloYellowknee]

This guy’s as good as Aquaholic

[@MrRich2u]

This is designed to compete against a Fleming and other semi-displacement trawlers. Not a Bering or Nordhaven.

[@ironichumorist]

this seems to me a boat of many compromises. the saloon design is very nice. the flybridge area seems a bit small. to be a "magellano" series i think the range is insufficient. but of course the aesthetics are lovely as they always are with azimut.

[@user-gq4ch1pd4c]

Good job....many bozos on YT don't do the engine room

[@toolman4816]

16:13 Maybe i'm confused, but don't day heads usually have a TOILET, LOL. Saw a shower and a sink that's it.

[@dtutssel]

Toilet's in the shower

[@gregchrist5090]

Distance and safety go full displacement. Like to know what sea state this is rated for.

[@pjmorgan]

The 'Azimut Lady' was a bit of an odd comment. Really awkward moment in the video.

[@pageant1fd]

That term did not get well received I would imagine. Perhaps an apologetic text/message is justified.

[@maximiliendabrassax75]

👍🙏🏻🇫🇷

[@imcurtispenner]

No, no, don’t get up. I’m just trying to sell your boat with great video content. I would hate to put you out and break up, what I’m sure is, riveting conversation. 🙄

[@joshmore7175]

That is an awful crew cabin

[@justinw12311]

As i look and watch a lot of boat videos why is it that most Italian boat builder's are always on looks and not function and ridiculous things that should not be there ? Just a waste of money , if you are going to buy something make warm inviting and useable with commonsense not oh that is flashy and pointless .
