Azimut Grande 36M

A semi-walkaround upper deck that runs the length of the boat: that is the layout idea behind the Azimut Grande 36M, more than her 35-metre length. Azimut is building her now for delivery in 2027, with side windows that retract fully to join the skylounge to the aft terrace.

Build and provenance

The Azimut Grande 36M is a monohull flybridge motor yacht from the Italian yard, styled by Alberto Mancini with elongated lines and a sportive stance despite her 275 gross tons. At 35 metres with a 7.5-metre beam, she carries real volume inside a hull shaped to look lighter than she is. Delivery is due in 2027, so a buyer takes her still in build rather than with a survey history behind her.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests sleep in five cabins, and a crew of six look after them, a service ratio that suits formal entertaining as much as private cruising. The main deck lounge can run as two separate lounge areas or as one open dining and sofa arrangement, and the skylounge above is built to be reconfigured too: a lounge cinema setup, or a full indoor dining room that frees the main deck's forward end for a separate sitting room. The master cabin sits centrally in the accommodation, built around a king-size bed with clear sightlines rather than tucked into a corner.

Performance and engineering

Two MTU engines rated at 2,200 hp and two at 2,400 hp give her an 18-knot cruise and a 24-knot top speed: figures built for steady, comfortable running rather than outright pace.

On deck and at anchor

Onboard entertainment includes a cinema room, one part of a skylounge built to be used several different ways depending on how the day is going.

Where she lies and how to see her

The Azimut Grande 36M is under construction in Italy. A buyer can view her progress, and once an offer is accepted, we bring in the surveyor and arrange the sea trial before she's handed over.
