2007 Azimut 68S - Azimut Yachts FOR SALE

Quite possibly one of the finest 68S offerings on the market today, freshly surveyed with all maintenance current and documented. Thoughtful upgrades elevate the experience: Fusion amplifiers with subwoofer, underwater lighting, a custom teak dining table, new carpeting along with refreshed cushions and canvas, plus updated refrigerators and an ice maker for effortless entertaining.

When Azimut launched the 68S in 2005, it redefined the genre—an audaciously distinctive 68-footer and the brand’s first new express in two decades. This open hardtop sport yacht rides a modified-V hull highlighted by signature square portholes and tiered side glazing. The main deck is a single-level, light-filled salon conceived for lounging and entertaining, anchored by a premium media setup and crowned by a vast opening sunroof that brings the outside in. Below, the accommodations reflect true luxury motor yacht standards: three elegant staterooms include a full-beam, amidships owner’s suite with a king berth and opposing portlights for dramatic views; a guest cabin to port with twin berths serves its own full bath, which also functions as a convenient day head; and a forward VIP with an island queen enjoys a private head and separate shower. A compact crew cabin is discreetly positioned aft beside the transom garage, ideal for a tender or water toys.

Wide sliding glass doors connect the salon to a sociable aft deck featuring a large centerline sun pad, wet bar, and grill—perfect for life at anchor. Boarding is versatile via a hydraulic passerelle or port and starboard transom gates, while the engine room is accessed through an aft deck hatch for efficient serviceability. A teak hydraulic lift/swim platform expands the living space at water level for easy tender launch and effortless swim access. Powered by MTU 1,360 hp V-drive diesels, this performance express cruiser delivers a confident 30-knot cruise with 33–35 knots at the top end—true power yacht pace with the refinement of a luxury coupe. For those seeking an open, Mediterranean-style express, bluewater-capable elegance, and thrilling performance in a sleek motor yacht package, this 68S stands out.
