The Azimut Fly 62 is a 63-foot luxury flybridge yacht that was launched by the iconic Italian yacht-building firm Azimut at the 2024 Cannes Yacht Festival. This revolutionary new model reimagines deck space to bring guests closer to both the sun and the sea, while a sleek profile in shimmering white fiberglass betrays Azimut’s signature clean and restrained style. Designed in partnership with industry stalwart Alberto Mancini, this yacht packs plenty of space across its footprint while looking and feeling elegant, graceful and refined.
A floating hard-top with a sunroof, 360-degrees of windscreen glazing, steel accents and teak floorboards welcome guests up onto the flybridge, where an array of sofas, sunpads and bespoke coffee tables await. Also on offer up here is an L-shaped wet-bar station with goodies like a grill and refrigeration tastefully hidden beneath a solid worktop, as well as an outdoor helm station with a pair of stylish piloting seats. Down on the foredeck there’s a wide forward lounge with room for a three-zone sunpad as well as a Portuguese Bridge-style sofa with a table, making this the perfect place to soak up the rays.
To the rear there is a shaded aft-deck lined in thin-plank teak with a pair of ergonomic sofas, rounded tables and steps down to a full-beam swim platform to stern. What’s truly new back here, however, is an innovative Beach Cockpit concept featuring an electronic transom sofa that drops down to deck-level at the touch of a button. The sofa then folds out to become a floating sunpad with views beyond stern, enhancing your guest’s connection with the water.
Interiors have been subject to the deft hand of stylist Fabio Fantolino, who has opted for a breezy, open-plan lay-out with plenty of rounded corners and the calming tones of pinewood and grey upholstery for an atmosphere that refreshes and uplifts. There’s also oversized picture-frame windows for clear sea views, authentic hardwood floors for an at-home feel and bronzed highlights that work in tandem with mood lighting to add a dash of opulence. Upon entry there is a dining booth for four and an open kitchen with white Corian worktops and high-end appliances, while further forward there’s a chaise-longue, an L-shaped sofa and steps down to a lower-deck. Down here there is room for up to six overnight guests across a VIP double, a twin cabin and a full-beam master stateroom with a king-sized bed, a work-desk, a love-seat and a full-height closet. All lower-deck cabins boast full en-suite facilities including showers, while a separate crew quarters for one can be accessed via an aft-deck door.
The main helm station sits to starboard on the main-deck, and comes with the very latest navigational tech including power-steering, Garmin display screens, Active Trim Control, Volvo Penta joystick handling, an integrated Garmin Control System and VHF radio for safe, confident and pulsating piloting.
Premium engine options on the Azimut Fly 62 include a pair of next-generation 1000HP Volvo Penta IPS1350 pod-drive engines, while fuel capacity maxes out at 740 US gallons. Expect top speeds to hit 32 knots and cruising speeds to stabilize at around the 26-knot mark.
DESCRIPTION OF AZIMUT 62 FLY (2002 EDITION)
The Azimut 62 is a 64-foot flybridge motor yacht designed for weekend cruising that was released to the public in 2002. The Azimut 62 built on the success of the Azimut 55, retaining the sleek and curvaceous Stefano Righini exterior with cresting wave windows, but adding an extra few feet of length, better engines and the rugged capability to cruise on the open blue waters of the sea. Though no longer produced by Azimut, and eventually superseded by the release of the 62E in 2007, this is still an incredibly popular yacht on the used and charter markets.
The open-top fiberglass flybridge on this Azimut Yacht makes the most of its compact dimensions to turn the entire starboard side into a sprawling seating area with a leather dining sofa that directly flows into a forward-positioned sunbed with a cocoon-style aura. There is also a piloting sofa at the port-side upper helm station, not to mention rear storage space for a water tender, a fiberglass breakfast table and a wet-bar console with an outdoor grill.
On the main deck you will discover a sheltered aft-cockpit with teak floorboards, a transom sofa and room for an al-fresco dining table, while up on the foredeck there is a three-seater sunpad with headrests. At the stern there are side steps down to an almost full-beam swimming platform, with transom access to a rear crew quarters with its own head.
Interiors by Carlo Galeazzi pick up on the curved motif of the Azimut 62’s stylish exterior, and the aft salon features a rounded leather sofa, a circular leather love-seat and curved cabinetry in glossy cherrywood. A couple of steps up leads you towards a U-shaped dining sofa with an extending table, as well as an elliptical walk-in wet-bar and kitchen galley with a cherrywood and stainless steel floating drinks platform. The galley is stocked with high-end Miele appliances and boasts a convection oven, a four-zone ceramic hob, a fridge and a large basin. At the front of the cockpit sits a stunning helm station that looks like something lifted out of a passenger jet. Equipped with Raymarine navigational equipment, this sinuous dashboard is positioned centrally for superb visibility, and comes with power steering as well as bow and stern thrusters.
On the lower level you will discover three en suite bedrooms, including a starboard twin berth, a VIP guest room to the bow and a full-beam, amidship owner’s stateroom. The owner’s room is the pick of the bunch, and includes an angled king-sized bed, an S-shaped work desk with chairs, a full-height closet, a walk-in shower, beveled mirrors, enameled crystal taps and translucent sinks. Downstairs rooms feature wide portholes, while the owner’s stateroom boasts a pair of either triple-pane scallop-shell windows or triple mullions.
A pair of powerful Caterpillar 1130MHP engines fire this yacht to top speeds of 32 knots. However, some owners choose an upgrade to MTU 8V 2000 engines for full-throttle speeds of around 38 knots. Whatever your choice of engine, the Azimut 62 is a smooth and stable ride with efficient planing on the move, thanks to a proprietary hull designed by the in-house Azimut team.
