Azimut Grande 25 Metri

A 2020 build year is what an owner looking for low maintenance wants to see: newer systems and a shorter list of things due for replacement. Azimut Grande 25 Metri is an 87-foot flybridge motor yacht, currently lying in Hong Kong. For a buyer who wants to spend time aboard rather than managing a project, that build date is the headline fact.

Build and provenance

Stefano Righini drew the exterior and Achille Salvagni designed the interior, a serious name on both ends of the yacht rather than just the visible one. Her hull is GRP with carbon fibre in the build, which keeps weight down for a boat of her length. She flies a Hong Kong flag, built to the Grande line's flybridge format rather than an open sports layout.

Layout and accommodation

Four staterooms hold ten guests: a full-beam master suite, two VIP cabins and a twin, all set on the lower deck below a main salon lit by floor-to-ceiling windows. A crew of four look after them. The bow area is set up for sunbathing, and the flybridge has the room for a full evening of entertaining.

Performance and engineering

Twin MAN engines put out 1,800 hp between them, enough for a 20-knot cruise and a 26-knot top speed. Two Onan generators cover the hotel load, and two gyro stabilisers work both at anchor and under way, cutting the roll in both conditions.

Where she lies and how to see her

Azimut Grande 25 Metri lies in Hong Kong. We set up a viewing at a time that works for a serious buyer and come along for it. Once an offer is accepted, a surveyor and a sea trial follow before the sale is confirmed.
