Taiga Yacht a motore

A full-beam owner's suite on the main deck is the layout decision that gives Taiga her shape: everything else on board, from the bow lounge to the flybridge, is planned around keeping that space whole. Azimut delivered her as a Grande 26M in 2024, and she is offered for sale from Spain. Full-height sliding doors join the saloon to the cockpit, so the line between the two all but disappears.

Build and provenance

Taiga is a Grande 26M, one of Azimut's flybridge motor yachts, a twenty-six-metre monohull built in 2024 and sold as a used yacht, so a buyer takes on a hull barely a year old rather than a fresh build slot. At eighty-seven feet and 122 gross tons, the flybridge styling carries through the whole boat.

Layout and accommodation

Ten guests sleep across five cabins, with the full-beam suite taking the main deck for itself. Forward, the bow opens into a second lounge with its own seating, set apart from the cockpit. Three crew work from two cabins on the forward lower deck, reached by their own side passage so they can move between the helm, galley and decks without crossing the guest areas. The flybridge is large enough to hold every guest on board at once.

Performance and engineering

Two MAN V12 engines, rated at 1650 hp each, drive her through a ZF pod propulsion system rather than a conventional shaft line, which frees up interior volume and cuts noise and vibration underway. She cruises at 23 knots and reaches 27 knots flat out, quick enough for a lunch run between anchorages rather than a slow coastal plod. Stabilisers, a Seakeeper and a gyro stabiliser work together, so the ride stays level both at anchor and under way.

On deck and at anchor

The flybridge carries the alfresco dining table and the barbecue, so meals move outside as easily as they do below. Aft, the deck is left open for sofas, sun loungers or the barbecue depending on how the day is planned. Combined with the stabilisers, she suits still evenings on the hook as much as the passage there.

Where she lies and how to see her

Taiga lies in Spain. Boatcrowd arranges every viewing and is there for it, and once an offer is accepted we bring in the surveyor and organise the sea trial before handover.
