Verdict
The 2008 Azimut 86S is a fast, stylish open superyacht with genuine performance pedigree and strong guest capacity for its size. It offers a balanced mix of speed, exterior presence, and practical charter layout, though space efficiency and fuel appetite are typical tradeoffs for a planing yacht of this era.
Avantages
- +Twin 2,000 hp MTU engines deliver strong top-end performance
- +Can host 8 guests in 4 cabins with 6 berths
- +Open, sporty Azimut styling with large social exterior areas
- +Air conditioning and Wi-Fi suit charter use
Inconvénients
- −Fuel consumption and range are not ideal for long, slow cruising
- −Interior volume is more limited than on flybridge yachts of similar length
- −2008 build means older systems compared with newer yachts
- −Crew size is modest for a yacht of this class
SCARLET, the Azimut 86S built in 2008, reflects the model’s signature performance-oriented design: low-profile, sporty, and clearly built around speed rather than maximum interior volume. Publicly available specs place the boat around 26.5–27.0 meters overall, with beam figures varying by source, which is common for listings that differ on whether pulpit and platform are included. The result is a yacht with strong visual impact and an open-deck character that suits day entertaining and short luxury cruises.
On the water, the 86S is known for high-speed capability for its class, with twin MTU V16 2000-series engines producing about 4,000 hp combined. Published figures for the model show cruising speeds around the high 30s to 40 knots and top speeds roughly in the low-to-mid 40-knot range, depending on load and drive setup. That makes it far quicker than most conventional flybridge yachts, but also means fuel burn and sensitivity to sea state are part of the ownership or charter experience.
Comfort and livability are solid for an open sport yacht: SCARLET offers 4 cabins for up to 8 guests, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and a practical 2-crew setup. The tradeoff is that an 86-foot sport model will generally feel less spacious inside than a heavier displacement yacht of similar length, especially for extended stays. Overall, it is a strong choice for buyers or charterers prioritizing speed, style, and day-to-day glamour over maximum interior volume or long-range efficiency.
