The Azimut 78 is the flagship of the Flybridge range and, just as you would expect from a flagship, it takes things to a whole new level, not always an easy achievement when a collection's benchmark is already set high.

We think it's safe to say it rose to the challenge, delivering an on-board experience that is hard to beat when it comes to sheer comfort and enjoyment. The reason for this lies in the decision to adopt design philosophies and logic usually reserved for larger boats, and the benefits can be seen in a myriad of ways that set the Azimut 78 apart from other models of the same dimension.

Among these are a layout that offers greater privacy for the owner and their guests through the clear separation between their areas and those used by the crew. Then, there is a day zone that disregards the traditional subdivision between dining and living areas to create larger, more informal environments that foster conviviality and ease of movement. On the performance side, the innovative new tri Volvo Penta IPS triple propulsion makes for extraordinarily silent cruising and optimises fuel consumption.

You can discover all the different details that make the Azimut 78 so special.
