Owner Experience Review
Owners gravitate to the Fly 68fromAzimut Yachtsfor family cruising and sociable weekends, citing four-cabin layouts, a generous flybridge zoned for seating, dining, and sunbathing, and flexible galley choices (mid or aft). The owner’s suite benefits from a crossways bed with an ensuite and dressing area, while the crew cabin is generally viewed as suitable for occasional use. Several users describe it as spacious for its size, and many treat it as a weekend/party platform rather than a long-term liveaboard; some boats also see light charter, often with full-time captain maintenance.
On the water, it is a lively performer that corners precisely and rides light chop with minimal slamming. Sea trials report a top speed just under 32 knots with a comfortable cruise in the 20–25-knot range, and a reported example shows 300+ nautical miles at higher cruise speeds. The carbon-fiber hardtop and superstructure help lower the center of gravity, contributing to predictable handling across the planing envelope.
Maintenance feedback is mixed. Some owners recount historical quality issues—particularly around wiring, plumbing, and access to key systems (including inconveniently placed panels)—and there are documented warranty disputes, with outcomes varying by region and dealer. Others, especially in parts of Europe, report quick parts availability and fast servicing, so after-sales experience can depend heavily on the local network.
Pros and Cons
- Strong performance and handling, with a top speed just under 32 knots and a comfortable 20–25-knot cruise.
- Family-friendly layout with four cabins, a generous zoned flybridge, and flexible mid or aft galley options.
- Manageable for owner-operators yet suitable for occasional crew or light charter use.
- Mixed build-quality and serviceability feedback, including wiring and access complaints around key systems.
- Warranty and parts support can vary by region, with disputes and rejections reported.
- Some appliances, notably the refrigerator, feel undersized for the boat’s mission.
