AZIMUT 58: A SENSUAL RETURN TO THE ORIGINS

6 October 2007. Beneath the large tensile structure of the Genoa Boat show, a veil is the protagonist. Its color is a sweet, tender green that conjures up images of Polynesian atolls, exotic vacations, the freshness of far-off oceans. Curiosity is high, visitors to the Boat for boat Show gather around the immense new stand awaiting the launch event of the latest from Azimut.

Those faithful to the customary autumn appointment know the emotion will be intense. Azimut means to everyone the choice of a lifestyle, the desire to stand out and identify with a product that communicates elegance, sensuality and comfort. And the new Azimut 58 embodies these values perfectly. Righini has called it “a tribute to the freshness of the sea, the original interpretation of the character of a primitive, wild, sensual nature”.
The Azimut 58 will whisper all this through the design of its sinuous external lines, the layout of its interiors, intimate and in continuous contact with the outdoor sailboat light and the sea.

And as always in the careful selection of its materials: warm, refined, natural. The new Azimut Flybridge, 18 meters long and 5 meters wide, offers a large saloon on the main deck with an open galley and dinette, and on the lower deck three spacious cabins illuminated by natural light that marine filters through the original, unusually shaped sailboat windows.

The square bow, the large flybridge and the cockpit provide roomy, comfortable outdoor spaces. To live the sea in total freedom.
