Owner Experience Review
Owners tend to use the 68 FlybyAzimut Yachtsfor family cruising, weekend entertaining, and even light charter, thanks to commonly listed four-stateroom layouts with a full‑beam master. Multiple listings and owner posts call out the flexibility of aft‑galley or mid‑galley arrangements and the way the flybridge and cockpit function as practical social hubs with panoramic views.
On the water, IPS 1350 installations are frequently cited for low vibration, easy maneuverability, and a composed ride in moderate chop, with reported cruise around 27 knots and top speeds in the 31–32‑knot range. Broker and test notes suggest the hull prioritizes comfort and volume over chasing the last few knots, and handling is widely praised in the 25–32‑knot band. For longer coastal runs or occasional bluewater passages, owners and dealers point to optional long‑range tanks and Seakeeper as effective comfort upgrades.
The ownership curve typically includes a new‑build punch list of fit‑and‑finish items to address under warranty, and forum history has flagged electrical and plumbing items on some Azimut hulls—making a thorough survey and systems check prudent. Several owners note that dealer and factory responsiveness can vary by region (often stronger in Europe than the U.S.), and parts lead times on older hulls can be frustrating. One owner summed up interior perception as “Azimut interior is nicer but simultaneously a bit ‘cheaper’” compared with some competitors.
