Owner Experience Review

Owners describe the AZIMUT 46fromAzimut Yachtsas a versatile platform used for family cruising in the Med, charter work in Croatia (both bareboat and with skipper), and relaxed weekend coastal hops. The saloon feels genuinely roomy, and several owners call the forward master and second cabins "quite palatial." In the two-cabin version, the galley is larger and more sociable; by contrast, the three-cabin layout gains a berth but makes the galley and third cabin noticeably tighter.

Underway, feedback highlights a helm that can feel heavy or even painfully slow if the hydraulic steering and trim tabs aren’t set up correctly; handling improves once on plane with the right trim-tab and torque adjustments. Multiple owners note the boat is a big, heavy design that needs power to reach the top end, with later 500 hp Cat combinations reported around 27.5 knots. Ergonomics are a recurring check-point—both helm seats are fixed, non-adjustable, and not particularly comfortable. Maintenance watch-items include minor osmosis/blistering around spray rails, chines, and transom on some older examples (with reports of warranty repairs in certain cases), electric side windows prone to failure, teak caulking/deck join issues, plus routine bleeding of trim-tab/steering systems and standard Cat engine servicing.

Pros and Cons

• Spacious saloon and notably generous master and second cabins.
• Two-cabin layout offers a larger, more sociable galley and suits family cruising and charter.
• Handling improves significantly on plane with correct trim-tab and steering setup.
• Helm can feel heavy or slow without proper hydraulic and trim adjustments.
• Fixed, non-adjustable helm seats are often reported as uncomfortable.
• Age-related issues include window mechanisms, teak caulking/deck joins, and localized hull blistering on some older boats.
