Verdict
The Azimut Fly 68 is a modern flybridge yacht with strong exterior styling, efficient Volvo IPS propulsion, and a well-resolved 4-cabin layout for up to 8 guests. It is best judged as the 2021-on Fly 68, not the unrelated 2006 Azimut 68S, which had different engines and a different performance profile.
Pros
- +Modern flybridge layout with strong indoor-outdoor flow
- +Four-cabin accommodation suits family cruising
- +Volvo IPS pods aid low-speed maneuvering and fuel efficiency
- +Comfortable cruising speed with up to 32-knot top speed
Cons
- −Not the same boat as the 2006 Azimut 68S
- −Fuel consumption and range vary by loading and setup
- −Premium pricing places it in a competitive segment
- −Performance is more efficient than aggressive
The Azimut Fly 68 is a contemporary 68-foot flybridge yacht from the 2021-era Fly range, with an overall length of 20.98 m, a 5.23 m beam, and a 4-cabin, 8-guest arrangement. Its design language is clean and upscale, with the volume and outdoor spaces expected from a modern Mediterranean cruiser.
On the water, twin Volvo Penta IPS 1350 pods define the experience. The setup is aimed at efficient cruising, responsive low-speed control, and easier docking than many shaft-drive alternatives, while top speed is reported at up to 32 knots. That makes it capable and versatile, but not a sportboat in character.
Inside, the boat is focused on livability: the standard four-cabin layout, practical guest capacity, and flybridge/social areas make it well suited to owner-operator use or family charters. The main trade-off is value, since it sits in a premium market and buyers are paying for Azimut styling, systems integration, and propulsion efficiency rather than outright speed.
The key point is specification accuracy: the public 2021 Fly 68 is different from the 2006 Azimut 68S/"Sport Artistic," which used different engines and a different performance profile. For reviews and charter listings, that distinction matters because the two boats are not interchangeable.
