The Azimut 60 Fly, launched in 2017 and still in production, is a 60-foot (18.25m) flybridge motoryacht designed for cruising and weekending. Its GRP hull with carbon fibre reinforcement and planing design enables a top speed of 30–31 knots and a cruising speed of 24–26 knots, powered by twin Volvo Penta D13-900 engines (900hp each) or optionally MAN i6-800s [1][2][3]. The beam of 16'7" (5.05m) and draft of 4'9" support stable performance, with a range of 779nm at 8 knots [1][2].
On the water, the 60 Fly handles confidently for owner-operation, featuring joystick control integrated with the bow thruster and an automatic trim system that minimizes pilot correction [6]. Test boats achieved 30.1 knots top speed and 24 knots cruising, with fuel consumption of 200L/h at 20 knots and 250L/h at 25 knots [3][6]. The hull's 15.6° aft deadrise and 22° amidship deadrise contribute to smooth seakeeping, while the vertical bow and large pilothouse windows enhance visibility and style [2][6].
Comfort and livability are anchored by three cabins for six guests: a full-beam master amidships with athwartships queen berth, a forward VIP with queen berth, and a starboard twin cabin. All have private ensuites, though some sources note only two guest bathrooms [2][3][4]. The interior by Achille Salvagni is bold and opinion-splitting, with multiple relaxation areas including a bow lounge for privacy [2][6]. Amenities include air conditioning, WiFi, autopilot, and GPS [verified specs].
Value is the model's weakest point: prices start at €1.73M and reached €2.09M for tested models, with a 2022 example listed at $2.15M [3][5]. While the yacht offers luxury and innovation, high fuel burn and reported wall-covering issues in hot climates temper long-term value [3][7]. For buyers prioritizing design, speed, and owner-friendly handling over cost efficiency, the Azimut 60 Fly remains a compelling choice in the flybridge segment [1][2][9].
