A-Force

A range of 351 nautical miles sits behind the Fly 78 platform's flybridge profile, and Azimut built A-Force to use it. Delivered in 2021, she was already coded for charter under the Malta flag, so she comes into this sale with a season of paying guests behind her.

Build and provenance

She is built in composite rather than fibreglass. Alberto Mancini drew her exterior and Achille Salvagni her interior, and her layout keeps a separate passageway for the crew, so service happens away from the guest areas. Her Malta charter code carries a prior season of charter history into the sale, a working record rather than a first outing.

Layout and accommodation

Eight guests sleep in four cabins, and three crew look after them, with the separate passageway keeping that work out of the guest spaces. At 63 gross tonnes on a 24-metre platform, A-Force carries more room than her length alone would suggest.

Performance and engineering

Three Volvo Penta engines at 900 horsepower each drive her IPS pod system to a 26-knot cruise and 33 knots flat out. Stabilisers work both at anchor and under way, so a night off a beach and a run between islands both stay level.

On deck and at anchor

The sun deck and the foredeck seating give her two separate outdoor rooms, one open to the sky and one set forward and quieter.

Where she lies and how to see her

A-Force lies in Malta, and any viewing runs through us: we set the date, meet you at the boat, and stay for the walk-through. An accepted offer brings a surveyor and a sea trial next, before the sale goes further.
