Avis sur le AZIMUT 55S

The Azimut 55S is a low-profile sport yacht with an aggressive, modern design that stands out in the 55- to 57-foot class. Public specifications consistently place it around 56'9" LOA, with a beam of about 15'5" and a carbon-fiber superstructure, which helps explain its emphasis on sleek lines and performance rather than maximum interior volume.[1][3][5]

On the water, the 55S is known for its triple Volvo Penta IPS propulsion package and reported top speeds in the mid-30-knot range, with cruise speeds around 28 to 30 knots depending on the source.[1][2][4][8] The IPS layout should give it good maneuverability in tight marinas and a more controlled ride than many conventional shaft-drive yachts of similar size, although exact real-world performance varies by load and condition.[2][12]

Inside, the boat typically offers three guest cabins, two bathrooms, and accommodation for up to six guests, which is a practical fit for owner-operators and small families.[1][11][12] The trade-off is that the coupé format prioritizes style and outdoor living over the spaciousness of a flybridge model, so long-stay cruising comfort is competent rather than expansive.[1][7]

As a value proposition, the 55S is strongest for buyers who want an elegant, fast, and well-engineered sport yacht with recognizable Azimut styling. It is less compelling if the priority is maximum interior area per foot or lower operating complexity, but its blend of performance, layout, and brand appeal remains a solid package in the used market.[1][2][11]
