Owner Experience Review

Owners often choose the 85FfromAzimut Yachtsfor family cruising and crewed week-long charters, leveraging the common four-cabin plus crew layout. The large fuel capacity (around 2,378 US gallons) supports both weekend leisure and longer passages. Underway, expert trials and owner notes describe a confident, stable ride with a distinctly “massive” feel influenced by the big hardtop and high freeboard. Typical cruising falls in the mid-to-high 20-knot range, with published maxima around ~29 knots depending on engine choice and load.

Onboard, the saloon’s panoramic windows and an aft/behind-helm galley with sliding partitions offer flexibility for open entertaining or separating crew. Layouts typically provide four guest cabins plus dedicated crew quarters, and some builds feature a private, full-beam owner suite. The expansive flybridge/hardtop is a social focal point—sunbathing areas, ample seating, and even optional jacuzzi appear in listings—while interiors are often described as luxurious but heavy, with original high-gloss wood that many owners later refit to contemporary finishes.

Ownership reports do flag maintenance realities. In the U.S., factory support is frequently described as near non-existent, and captains cite unfinished fiberglass in bilges, loose screws, and seal/leak issues after delivery. Mechanics warn that systems can be hard to work on due to complex routing and tight engine-room access; owner threads mention window/hatch seal leaks, plastic thru-hull failures, and pump/electrical faults. An independent survey and a budget for above-average service costs are widely advised.

Pros and Cons

• Confident, stable feel underway with a heavy, “massive” character.
• Mid-to-high-20-knot cruising with published max around ~29 knots depending on engines and load.
• Flexible 4-cabin plus crew layouts with a spacious flybridge/hardtop for entertaining.
• Reports of near-nonexistent factory support in the U.S. complicate warranty or parts assistance.
• Documented build-quality issues on some boats, including unfinished bilges, loose hardware, and seal leaks.
• Tight access and complex systems routing increase maintenance time and cost, with known faults like plastic thru-hull failures and pump/electrical issues.
