🚀Tested: Azimut’s BRAND NEW Seadeck 6 - Driven, Yacht Tour & Review

[@VincenzoValenti]

YachtBuyer has quickly become the best boat reviews channel on YT. Amazing work Jack and the team!

[@Yachtbuyer]

Thank you, that’s kind of you to say - Jack

[@AngusCookProductions]

Could not agree more! Entertaining, succinct, accurate and informative. My go to channel for yacht reviews and updates. Keep up the great work!!!

[@lindarevill1668]

I appreciate Jack’s fair but thorough commentary with facts and knowledgeable opinion. Well done.

[@Nguoidemthoigian]

@@Yachtbuyer how much pro ?

[@bisa34]

The Seadeck 6 has beautifull layout and interior furnishing she serves a whole different Azimut customer needs and is a standout from competition. Sustainability arguments are integrated within built materials, perhaps less for fuel consumption as if it were motorized by twin instead of 3 volvo penta but they wanted a whole new product line up and this is where Azimut excells. Well done Jack !

[@landonleathers5936]

I think out of almost all the walkthrough tours of boats I've seen on this channel this is by far my favorite they managed to make it look and feel more like a home then a boat with the layout and colors they've chosen almost looks more like a lake cottage then a boat ❤🤟😎 knocked the interior out of the park

[@AndyNC]

WOW. This is the most beautiful designed yacht I've seen in that size. Very elegant and stylish, but also functional. I like the eco-based ideas with the cork flooring and recycled fishing net carpets.

[@The-Droll-and-LazyJoker]

The main deck living space is clean and beautiful, The minimalist design and decor, is... spectacular

[@Anonymous-bs8it]

Love the eco-friendly features and use of cork! Great job Captain Jack and team. Will you be showcasing the Seadeck 7 and Seadeck 9 as well?

[@Yachtbuyer]

That’s the plan! - J

[@nicbennett6554]

Brilliant review Jack, thanks. I like the cork decking and battery bank, and most of the boat. Although not sold on sustainability ethos. I’d want a side door at the helm for easy access to that aft wing station, and the louvres in the saloon roof would have to move. It would drive be mad not being able to get proper shade!

[@Yachtbuyer]

Glad you liked it, Nic, cheers! - Jack

[@KingKally123]

I think that this small Yacht is good enough for somebody to chill on the Water or drive trough the Ocean. This Big Yachts are just Luxury u dont need. This Yacht is small but cool and beautiful

[@seanogden927]

That is a nice looking boat from the outside but it comes into it's own inside, it is absolutely beautiful inside above and below decks, love the light colours used and some great finishes, nice layout and a great owners cabin. Great tour Jack thank you.

[@cgalotta]

Gorgeous yacht and informative review Jack! Thanks for showcasing all the unique features.

[@Yachtbuyer]

My pleasure! - J

[@timessix8434]

Yay! Single lever enters the game! What I normally do is once into gear (with port lever) I pull the starboard lever all the way back so it’s out of the way. Then I rest my hand on the lever console and can adjust the port lever with my thumb and index finger. Very comfortable with high precision.

[@Yachtbuyer]

[@maryholder3795]

She can shift quickly, she steady, not a quick turner. Not stately but steady, a comfortable ride. Platform, cork deck covering, versatile seating in the cockpit. Like the cork on top the bulwarks. Like the interior comfortable seating area, great galley with all appliances hidden away. Nice pale colours looks like a light and airy salon. As are all the 3 cabins and 2 bathroom's plenty of storage. Nice wonder about litres to nautical miles? I probably missed it if it was mentioned.

[@joelouis7219]

Beautiful boat and another perfect presentation. Thank you for this nice time

[@Yachtbuyer]

Glad you enjoyed it, Joe! - Jack

[@bartbuiring98]

Great video as always, Jack. Curious how the cork will fare. Beautifully designed interior. Almost feels Japanese inspired in the master cabin. The sustainability angle is questionable, but smart on Azimut’s part.

[@kevinmcintyre6503]

Hi Jack, I am a big fan of Azimut’s designs. Beautiful. One practical question. There appeared to be zero storage for food other than the refrigerator and freezer. All the galley cupboards were filled with appliances. While the design is clean, where does one stuff the coffee maker to keep the design clean? Or the cereal boxes, or the big bags of snacks for the kids? Even the area for glassware and crockery was small. Where are the pots and pans supposed to reside? Lovely boat, lovely exterior. The galley however seems a complete failure other than in its obvious design beauty.

[@Yachtbuyer]

I missed this in the tour but both sofas hinge up to reveal deep storage voids. My mistake, sorry! - J

[@kevinmcintyre6503]

@@Yachtbuyer well, that explains it. Still a bit inconvenient though. “can you get up, I need the crackers!” lol. Your presentations are excellent Jack. I enjoy your style very much. Also on a personal note, you look slimmer! Well done. Life’s greatest challenge.

[@iamsoldats]

I was going to say, that is an appalling lack of storage space in the galley.

[@thepurplesband]

It’s a very expensive day boat. I don’t get it.

[@ministersmith5508]

Very Very Nice Captn. Jack 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽♥️ Thanks for sharing

[@Yachtbuyer]

Thanks for watching!

[@marcusgrotenfelt4075]

8 liters per nautic mile. Kind of ridiculous to market it as sustainable.

[@PowerYacht]

Yes and no. Most flybridge and HT boats since large mid-ships staterooms arrived in this size are at 9 liters per nautical miles or more. I think unless you go slower do never expect much less, what ever the propulsion.

[@brandonfrith1549]

Sustainable is communist lingo. It’s not about the environment, it’s about control.

[@antoncarmoducchi6057]

There's no shortage of diesel Mate.

[@nickreitmaier5648]

Get a sailboat then...

[@allnamesaretakenb4]

Of course. Nothing about a yacht is sustainable. They just throw out this word to seem less insufforable, and morons gobble it up.

[@michelrodrigues110]

This look a small version of a San Lorenzo SP class. Wonderfull presentation, the best I found of this boat, thanks, Haines.

[@Yachtbuyer]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@colinwatt00]

What a FANTASTIC design. It kept getting better and better. The layout; the colour pallet; the features. My one and only criticism though… loosing the captain’s cabin for battery storage. Realistically, it should have both. This would be a large boat for an owner/operator but a wonderful, intimate boat for a charter.

[@selimbilgisin9049]

Lovely motor yacht, thank you for the great presentation Jack .

[@Yachtbuyer]

Many thanks! - J

[@cookiemonster2299]

I really like that one, very smart and I'm wondering if playing with trim tabs can make a person become more trimmed? 🤔😉 Anyway I imagine when manufacturers contact YB now and request they tour and test one of their boats it's a case of 'we can fit you in April 2028'. 👍❤️🇬🇧

[@vicentequesada6843]

Great job Jack. I never knew what do I need before this video. Congratulations.

[@The_Arby]

Lovely small yacht with some good features...Shame there's no side door though 🙂 Great review as always Jack 🙂

[@ralphweber2522]

Great review! Anxious to see if they come out with a 95’ fly bridge model.

[@chrisoleary9876]

Thanks so much Jack. I've seen and heard of complaints about post purchase problems with Azimut. They've kind of turned me off to the brand. I know things change of course, but would you have any words of wisdom on post purchase problems!? Thanks again. 😊

[@MiloYellowknee]

Yeah. Don’t buy it. So many better options.

[@pritchardmhere8624]

Okay looks so great... What's this boat actually for?

[@Nezzer57]

Great tour Jack and a beautiful boat, typical Italian flair and styling 👍 I would need a few darker shades though, it is a tad monochromatic...

[@fisheye375]

Azimut seats and sun pads always looks and seems so plush and comfortable on comparison of others…so inviting😂😂😂

[@Yachtbuyer]

Yep, they definitely get that bit right! - Jack

[@jaymoroscak4784]

Thanks for the great video. I think we missed the owner’s shower however. Also, some of the jump cuts during the aft tour are a little quick and don’t allow us to fully appreciate the design. I love your channel and I always watch so thank you.

Hi Jack, we are here at the Cannes Boat Show with our brand new VisionF 82 “SITARA” - an 82-foot motor catamaran - built completely of aluminum and with a very exceptional design. If you are interested in visiting the yacht, just get in touch with the owner, that's me. Maybe we can make an exciting video out of it.Regards,HG

[@colinwatt00]

I’m often critical of most swim platforms as they end-up being more gimmicks than features. This one however is beautifully considered and honestly reminds me of where an ancient Egyptian princess would lounge and then descend into the water.

[@africanpagan6338]

Beautiful boat

[@jordandunne5292]

Jack you're looking slimmer!

[@lajucb]

If I were in the market for a 60 foot ish Italian motor boat, to my mind Absolute are still the best. But this is a very nice weekender, albeit confused - Ii I wanted to spend weeks aboard there seems loads of room for clothes and bedding, but not much for food, drink and snacks!

[@Deatomizer]

Damn that's a beautiful boat :)

[@rtbinc2273]

Hi - love the video with a few caveats: I would have liked to see into the switch area and anchor locker, it did seem a little short in that regards. I don't remember a price being mentioned but maybe I missed it. I am almost 6foot 7inches so I would have some issues - but that is true for a lot of houses and almost all cars. IMHO Sustainability in this market and segment is about testing out changes like the cork deck and smaller engines. They are the proving ground for a lot of ideas. I would like to know about customization - dislike the hidden cook top a lot. Also not a fan of the color scheme. Still if I was given one I would not complain. I also wonder if the benefits would compound as boats get bigger - even more teak would not be used etc etc.

[@Yachtbuyer]

Glad you liked the video, thank you. We were given five hours to shoot the entire thing so some things slipped through the net, apologies! The price is on screen during the driving section - €1.85 million ex VAT - Jack

Such a beautiful high quality boat,why is there only a double helm seat looking foward,no co-pilot seating for help in non perfect conditions. Also how come no pilothouse door opening to the great gunwale area? Dockside queen’

[@iamsoldats]

I wonder what the efficiency would be running on just the center engine at displacement speeds...

[@jerdonsbabbler3515]

Great episode.

[@ddbb6721]

Good boat movie

[@jayb2617]

how long will the cork last its very soft and wont take abrasion very well.

[@PowerYacht]

Nice World first I guess. It would have been nice to try it without the stabilizer. The rigidity of the Seakeeper gave that annoying noise slaping to the hull (a feature of most boats to be fair), even in fairly flat seas.

[@teesutlee]

Nice but there is too little food storage in the refrigerator for six people to stay for two or three days.

[@r7boatguy]

The aesthetics are great, however for me the saloon seems rather impractical. The galley seems to have minimal storage for anything other than a snack and it all seems rather cramped compared to some of their other, similar-sized boats. 3 engines also means more maintenance! Curious to know how well it performs just on 2 engines.

[@JJ-vy2rh]

Tha roof should be able to close to block the sun

[@Derffee]

I really like the interior, but that ribbing in the galley area will be a pain clean especially if you have your hob on quite a few times

[@wings9925]

Beautiful interior design on the main deck, but I didn't see anywhere to store dry food or pots and pans. The corner cabinet will only hold glassware, crockery and plates.

[@shardie78239]

Love the boat but those colors do not work. You can have some contrast without it being dark.

[@FewTechOfficial]

Cool 😍

[@neilwharton720]

Nice looking interior,not sure about making the saloon a greenhouse with that glass roof, not the cleverest design may look nice and trendy but try sitting there in August in the Mediterranean, and the wing station why not have it aft much more use.

[@nickwatkins5321]

Nice boat, nice design though the decor is too pale for me. 0.5nm per gallon approximately! Though less than some of their other boats, sustainability is a tricky one to get around. But, nice boat.

[@matthewmartin1970]

Very stylish but that's to be expected from the Italians. The galley didn't seem to be blessed with enough storage for pots, pans or even a tin of beans though so not very practical and I'd definitely want those slats on the skylight to close.

[@dagg497]

Those drop down balconys do fukk all flr space. They should have made it like Galleon and be a part of the outside bar next to the kitchen or extend the indoor dining area so it could be used as a sideways tanning bed.. Now It's just a gimmick! You can tell, because the only tging rhey use It for here is plants 😂

[@FreddyKrugerGloves]

When is anyone not checking out the low price amazing reval grade g8 ?!?!?!?

[@decencywarrior9598]

[@Fatureta]

Very nice boat. Like the finishing of the interior and cork. However as a mariner it hurts me when i see chapter named here : Driving. Cars and trucks are for driving review. Ships,yacht and other floating objects with propulsion should be named : Underway Performance and Handling On-Water Performance and Helm Response Sailing (or Motoring) Performance and Handling Characteristics Seakeeping and Helm Responsiveness Please use maritime terms when reviewing maritime object.

[@adiaz2494]

The whole sustainable yachts thing is getting a bit annoying, these new eco friendly sustainable boats are a bit less terrible for the enviroment but that's all. Otherwise it's a fantastic boat and the only big miss is the lack of helm door when you have a wide sidedeck and easy place to install it.

[@AW-yv9sq]

That hull looks like it would ride like crap in any seas. It looks like it would struggle to actually get a breeze with no openings other than the captains tiny window.

Sustainable and diesel. Not linked in any way at all. If there were 2 engines and one electric pod then maybe but not this boat.

[@sirparkinson]

What's wrong with diesel? More environmentally friendly than petrol.

[@patrickjr11]

@@sirparkinson hardly, it's being phased out for a reason. Not just the nox, not the impact on burning fuels does to climate change but also the particulates on human health. The days of diesel as a fuel are over, as is petrol. The issue in boating is that there is a pointless obsession with marginal increases in speed that no one does needing ever bigger and bigger engines and increasing fuel burn. it's fiddling while Rome burns. Increasing number of battery powered boat's for river/canals and as outboards which id a good thing. But here they went with three diesel engines, when one of them could easily be a electric one for harbour or marina use. It's a pretend sustainable. Green washing at best.

[@RetroHondo67]

Diesel is a long long long away from being replaced for large boats, trucks, buses etc the low torque power is just not available from any fuel source.

[@patrickjr11]

@@RetroHondo67 hardly. There are already alternatives for diesel in every sector now. Batteries for all road transport are very much a norm. methanol is very popular for ocean going ships with batteries for coastal and inland boats is common. The only sector for which there is currently no alternative id aircraft but batteries are starting to make inroads in light short range flights.

[@RetroHondo67]

@@patrickjr11 Your dreaming in technicolor. Methanol is going to require huge investment in engine mods and requires 2.5 times the space in storage. There are boats that are testing these alternatives but the reality is they are nowhere near replacing diesel at any scale. It is the opposite where if anything they are showing that the diesel business case cannot be replaced. Battery cost has skyrocketed as the demand for Lithium versus the supply has created a crisis. Lithium is critical for the higher energy densities required to get in the neighbourhood of fossil fuels. Even if lithium was cheap, you can’t overcome physics and the reality is for larger hauling use case I.e. semi trucks, ships etc. pure battery powered vehicles is a pipe dream. The battery packs are too heavy, lose energy capacity too quickly when cycled and the energy densities required to overcome that issue are theoretical right now, so again diesel is not on the way out. If anything the likely solution will be diesel parallel hybrids which can reduce the emissions while still offering the required energy to move vehicles of 5 tonnes or more. Lots of companies trying to solve the problem but we are still far away from any alternative solution making any real dent at scale especially as the vehicles get larger. Alternative battery techs are still in the lab so they are at least 5-10 years from commercialization. Given the problems and walls ev’s are hitting with cars, mainly the skyrocketing cost of the battery packs making them too expensive, we have to all reset our expectations on the so called “death” of fossil fuels. The truth is the required scale of battery production means we need cheaper materials that are abundantly available while achieving higher energy densities than Lithuim Ion. We are still decades away from that kind of battery tech and it is still not a sure thing it is achievable. We all want engines that produce no emissions but there is nothing wrong with tech which reduce them dramatically. Real solutions need to address the complete value chain if they are actually going to work. We also need to focus on real potential. Any scientist with a brain can explain why batteries are not the answer for applications around our biggest emission problems I.e. Planes, large ships, and semi trucks. Hydrogen maybe the only answer in that scenario but the storage equation may never be solved in that case. Beware of the propaganda hyping that an alternative fuel is going to eliminate completely fossil fuels. If you look under the cover you will find that the reality is they are barely out of the r and d phase and often ignore the real issue of how to deploy the solution at scale. Right now they are no alternative fuel sources that look to address the large vehicle energy needs at a scale where they are economically viable. Even in a space where we thought this was solved, the small vehicle ev, we are now running into the realities that we are perhaps much further away from a completely emission free energy environment.

[@barnabyjamespackham6772]

Just having some sustainable features doesn't make it sustainable unfortunately

[@thepurplesband]

I was really looking forward to the first review having seen the concept designs. But….to me, this boat is a real disappointment. It’s a dud. It literally takes the worst aspects of other boats and outs them into one terrible package. They will probably sell loads though. But I will stick with Absolute Yachts. Good video though.
