Ma Belle

Azimut built her in 2022 as a Fly 78, and she is offered for sale from Piraeus.

Build and provenance

She uses Azimut's Carbon Tech construction, and a Seakeeper stabiliser keeps her level at rest. At 62 gross tons on a 24-metre hull, with a 5.8-metre beam and a 1.2-metre draft, she is light enough to reach a plane quickly and shallow enough to tuck close to shore.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests sleep in four cabins: a full-beam master suite and three further staterooms, one of them a twin that converts to a double. A crew of four runs her, enough for attentive service without crowding a boat this size.

Performance and engineering

Three 1,000 hp Volvo Penta IPS pod drives replace a conventional shaft and rudder, giving her joystick docking and a 26-knot cruise that reaches 33 knots flat out. The same IPS layout frees up space that a shaft driveline would take, which is where her extra toy storage comes from. The Seakeeper stabiliser takes the roll out of a stop at anchor.

On deck and at anchor

On deck, a jacuzzi and a dip pool sit forward with foredeck seating around them, and a hydraulic swim platform lowers to the water at the stern. The flybridge carries its own seating, and an outdoor bar, sunpads and a bathing platform add to the space, with air conditioning below keeping the cabins comfortable through a Piraeus summer.

Where she lies and how to see her

Ma Belle lies in Piraeus, Greece. Boatcrowd sets up viewings there and joins you for them, and once an offer is accepted, we handle the survey and sea trial that follow, through to handover.
