Italian brand named world leaders after collecting four prestigious awards
Hosted alongside the 2017 Cannes Yachting Festival, the World Yachts Trophies are some of the most highly sought after awards in the yachting industry.
Organised by the French yachting magazine, Yachts France, an international panel of experts in the field look at every aspect of yachts in each category to determine the best yachts on the market. This year Azimut, the Italian brand, walk away with four awards.
Azimut 60 - Best Layout Trophy 50' - 80' Category
Designed by the familiar collaboration between Stefano Righini for exteriors and Achille Salvagni for the interiors, the Azimut 60 was marvelled for the innovative solutions the unique yacht hosts.
With a transitional lounge / dinette and adaptable dinint tables, the interior solutions are beyond impressive, making the vessel incredibly versatile and adaptable for every owner's needs. The full beam master cabin in the centre of the yacht stands out particularly for the unique, one off, design pieces suspended from the ceiling.
The lower deck continues to prevail in providing ultimate comfort for guests onboard with three bathrooms for three cabins.
Grande 27 Metri - Most Achieved Trophy 80' - 125' Category
The wide bodied carbon fiber Grande 27 Metri boasts an impressive amount of space without causing any hinderance to perfomance and speed. Pioneering engineering and architecture designs have resulted in a larger vessel which provides owners with more entertaining space and an admirable speed for a yacht of this size.
With a potential capacity for up to five cabins on the lower deck, an owner can reside in their own suite on the main deck with absolute privacy and still be comfortable in the fact that every guest can stay onboard in luxury.
Edgy signatures and flowing lines create a perfect balance throughout the vessel making the 27 Metri a popular model for the Italian fleet.
Grande 35 Metri - Best Interior Design 80' - 125' Category
In the same range as the Grande 27 Metri, the 35 Metri assigns another award to its name thanks to the impeccable interior design by long term collaborator Salvagni.
The sophisticated appearance of the Grande 35 Metri shows only a small essence of the talent behind the incredible designs of the vessel. The main area of attraction for the given award is the main deck owner's cabin. Featuring full length floor to ceiling windows, there is an undoubtable feeling of airiness and space within the cabin, in which the bed plays the focal part at the centre of the room. Stunning views from the room are enhanced further by the unique fold down balcony which is supported fully underneath the structure, providing no obstructions to the perfect panoramic views.
Azimut S7 - Best Technology Evolution Trophy
As the newest arrival to the sport line from Azimut, the S7 is already leaving its mark in the industry.
With unususal decor designed by Francesco Guida, the chic but sporty S7 not only boasts sumptuous materials for ultimate guest comfort, but it also has the best fuel efficiency on the market.
An innovative pivoting platform and carbon fiber superstructure means there is a decent two meter headroom on both the main and lower decks onboard, making the S7 the only yacht in its segment to provide such space.
