Built by Azimut Yachts, theAzimut 55is commonly used for family cruising and relaxed weekend trips. Owners highlight the three‑stateroom layout and the large, bright saloon with expansive glazing as making overnighting for 4–6 practical. The flybridge and cockpit—with a dedicated BBQ/ice unit and convertible seating—plus foredeck sunpads, become the default social zones for Mediterranean‑style day boating and entertaining.
On the water, sea trials credit the 23° midship deadrise for a comfortable, composed ride in chop. Typical figures reported are about 27 knots at cruise and 31–32 knots at the top with twin inboards, while visibility is a known nuance: the flybridge overhang can limit aft sightlines at the upper helm, and the lower helm often offers better all‑around views. Many owners run the boat themselves, though a mate is appreciated for docking and systems management on longer passages.
Ownership notes emphasize attentive upkeep of Italian systems and high‑gloss finishes, with diesel mains and the generator representing meaningful service costs. Forum and Reddit threads describe delivery defects and occasionally contentious warranty resolution, and brokerage notes point out engine‑room access via a cockpit hatch and ladder that is tighter than some competitors. Separate owner commentary on the 55S IPS variant praises notable fuel economy around 22 knots while using two of the three drives, but that experience is specific to the S‑model rather than the Azimut 55.
