Sunset 8 Motor Yacht
About Sunset 8
Twenty-eight knots is the pace Sunset 8 holds at cruise, and it is the number that says the most about how she is built to run. Azimut finished her as an 81-foot flybridge motor yacht in 2024, a GRP monohull, and she is offered through Boatcrowd from Miami.
Build and provenance
She is a GRP motor yacht with a matching GRP superstructure, built by Azimut in 2024. Her beam runs to 5.56 metres on the 81-foot length, the proportions that give the flybridge and the decks below their footprint. A 2024 build means a buyer is looking at a recent boat rather than one with a long service history to account for.
Layout and accommodation
Eight guests sleep across four cabins, with three crew aboard to run the yacht and look after them, each with their own space to keep to. Three crew for eight guests is enough to keep the yacht ready and running without a larger complement aboard.
Performance and engineering
Sunset 8 cruises at 28 knots, matching her listed top speed rather than falling short of it under way, a pace that keeps an 81-foot flybridge motor yacht practical for day running and short coastal hops.
Where she lies and how to see her
Sunset 8 lies in Miami. Boatcrowd arranges viewings there and is present for each one, and once an offer is accepted, a survey and sea trial follow before the sale goes further.

Buying Costs
- Survey
- A buyer normally commissions a condition survey, and a sea trial, once an offer is accepted and before the sale becomes unconditional. The cost depends on her size and on where she is lifted, and it is the buyer who appoints the surveyor.
- Registration and flag
- She will be registered on a flag of the buyer's choosing, which carries its own fees and its own survey and crew requirements. Where the yacht is owned through a company, the shares rather than the vessel may change hands, which changes what is payable.
- VAT and import
- Whether VAT is due, and where, depends on the yacht's current status, her flag, the buyer's residency and where she is delivered. Where the seller has stated her VAT status, it is shown with the asking price on her page, and it is confirmed in writing before an offer is made.
- Running costs
- Crew, berthing, insurance, class and annual maintenance continue from the day she is yours. A yacht that is also chartered earns against them, and we will set out what her season has actually returned before you commit.
