Leeloo Motor Yacht

Alberto Mancini drew the outside of Leeloo and Salvagni Architetti the rooms within, and Azimut built her to that pairing as a flybridge motor yacht of 55ft (17m), launched in 2025, with tall windows that carry daylight deep into the saloon.

Where she cruises

Split is her home port, and from there she works the islands of Croatia, the heart of her season being July and August: the Kornati archipelago, a scatter of bare islands with quiet bays and konobas tucked into coves, the Pakleni islets for a swim, Hvar for its town and nightlife, and Vis with its Blue Cave.

Accommodation and crew

Six guests sleep in her three cabins. The master spans the full width of the hull around a king-size bed, the VIP carries a queen, and twin berths fit out the third cabin, with a television in the saloon and in the master and VIP alongside hi-speed internet. A single captain runs her from separate crew quarters, which means the guest cabins stay the guests' alone, and the same person who steers her looks after the six aboard.

Comfort under way

Two Volvo IPS drives give Leeloo a cruising speed of 26 knots and a top end of 32, and she burns 180 litres of fuel an hour, so the distance between two islands is covered quickly while the ride at that pace stays smooth and level.

On deck

The saloon opens onto the cockpit and up to the flybridge, where a wet bar means drinks are made in the open air, and Fusion and Sonos speakers play in all three of those spaces. The foredeck holds a sunpad, and the swim platform puts guests a single step from the water.

Water toys

A Williams jet tender takes guests ashore, and Leeloo also carries water skis and a Fun Tube for towing, two SUP boards so that two can paddle at once, and snorkelling kit for a look beneath the surface of a bay.

Charter notes

Leeloo suits a family or a party of friends of up to six who want a week on the water in Croatia with the running of the boat left in the captain's hands, and she is available for hire by the week or for three days. Six sleep aboard, but by day she can carry ten, which means a group larger than her cabins hold can still spend the day on her decks.
