Owner Experience Review
Owners commonly use the 70byAzimut Yachtsfor family cruising and weekend leisure, and it also appears in charter with a four-cabin layout accommodating roughly ten guests. Many boats are owner-operated for coastal cruising, while others run with crew; several owners describe it more as a weekend/party platform than a true long-term liveaboard. The typical arrangement is four staterooms plus crew with a full-beam master, a roomy salon, and generous social areas on deck and the flybridge. Interior fit and finish are frequently praised, though earlier European-layout boats can have a compact galley and limited refrigeration, which some find less suited to extended stays.
On the water, the boat is reported to feel solid and bigger than its length. Typical owner and broker commentary cites an easy 20–21-knot cruise and about 28 knots wide open, with MAN V12/1360 installations referenced in some reports. Older SeaJet examples can be wet in beam seas, but stabilizers (Naiad or Seakeeper on later boats) markedly improve comfort; a few captains noted the props can unload slightly when the system holds the hull very flat.
Handling at low speed is a strong point for a 70-footer, with good dockability, especially on examples fitted with a Xenta joystick. Maintenance expectations are those of a large luxury motor yacht: owners mention routine items like AC circulation pumps and teak care, and some note higher costs around certain engine installations. On older SeaJet boats, access to the engine room can be awkward, and fuel transfer arrangements on forward tanks have been described as a nuisance.
Pros and Cons
- Four-stateroom layout with a full-beam master and a generous flybridge suits family cruising and entertaining.
- Feels solid for its size, with typical 20–21-knot cruise and about 28-knot WOT reported with MAN V12/1360 installations.
- Docking and low-speed manoeuvrability are praised, especially on examples with a Xenta joystick option.
- Older SeaJet examples can be wet in beam seas, though stabilizers markedly improve comfort.
- Earlier European-layout boats may have a small galley and limited refrigeration for extended stays.
- Upkeep and operating costs are high for a 70-foot motor yacht, with some installations noted as smoky at slow speed and engine-room access awkward on older boats.
