Azimut History:

It all began in 1969 when Paolo Vitelli started his own yacht company in Turin, Italy before taking his University degree. The purpose of the business was to charter sailing boats but he developed his passion into a business, becoming a renowned manufacturer of luxury motor yachts.

In June 2003 opened a new Viareggio plant located in the heart of Viareggio harbour, this area of 52,000 sq m positioned on the water’s edge to allow the Company to significantly extend the current operations.

The Azimut yacht designs are intelligent and well thought out while the yacht’s styling is modern and evolutionary. Well regarded as practical and stylish these motor yachts are very much in demand and also generally make very successful charter yachts.
