Owner Experience Review
Owners and reviewers often position the Azimut Fly 68as a true owner-operator yacht in the ~70ft bracket thanks to Volvo Penta IPS 1350 pods, making it a plausible step up from ~55ft. Family cruising is central to its appeal: four-cabin layouts, a large saloon, and expansive social areas on the flybridge and in the cockpit, plus a hydraulic swim platform with tender capacity. The midships owner’s cabin draws praise for natural light and storage, and the choice of open, enclosed, or aft galley lets buyers tailor the boat to their program.
On the water, testers report confident planing and an easy, modern drive feel, with test-boat cruise speeds in the high-20s to low-30s knots. In typical conditions it is described as a comfortable cruiser with good stability for its class, and owners on public forums summarize it as delivering a smooth ride and a luxurious interior. Reports are more mixed in steeper short chop, where some owners note less happy behavior depending on vintage and configuration.
Maintenance feedback is more divided. Forum threads document early defects and after-sales friction—including instances of unfinished fiberglass in bilges, crumbled insulation, and loose fasteners—alongside warranty disputes. Sources also note that Azimut Yachtshas worked to improve build quality since around 2019, with newer deliveries reportedly showing fewer of those historical issues. A recurring everyday gripe is a compact European-style refrigerator that some consider undersized for longer provisioning.
Pros and Cons
- Owner-operator friendly with Volvo Penta IPS 1350 and a modern, confidence‑building planing feel.

- Flexible galley configurations (open, enclosed, or aft) to match different cruising styles.
- Mixed reports about ride quality in steep short chop depending on conditions and configuration.
- Recurring owner/forum reports of early defects and warranty disputes, including finish issues in service spaces.
- IPS pods require planned service and capable dealer support for parts and maintenance.
