Azimut 55S For Sale

The Azimut 55S is an Italian-built sport yacht measuring roughly 17 meters, just under 57 feet long, with a three-cabin layout that suits owners who want to entertain up to 12 guests and overnight a family with crew. Built by Azimut Yachts, the design carries a distinctive blunt vertical bow with a shield bearing inox and carbon inserts, a sculpted Opera Viva at the waterline, and checkerboard midship windows set just above the water. Carbon fiber is used in the structure, including bulkhead walls, garage supports and the hull section nearest the pods. The 2014 model earned a Best of the Best award for its category.

What sets this Azimut 55S apart mechanically is its triple propulsion: three Volvo Penta D6 IPS 600 engines rated at 435 horsepower each, for a combined 1,300 horsepower driving forward-facing contra-rotating propellers. Top speed reaches 35 knots with all three engines running, and the boat cruises comfortably around 30 knots, sitting at roughly 21 knots at 2,800 RPM. The IPS pod system delivers more than 20% higher dynamic efficiency than a traditional shaft drive, which helps Azimut 55S fuel consumption stay reasonable for a yacht this size. At 20 knots, noise measures 66 dBA, and the narrow deep-V hull holds course in chop. A joystick controls all three pods independently for precise docking.

The helm sits forward to starboard under a massive raked windshield, fitted with twin Raymarine touchscreen multifunction displays, autopilot, engine diagnostics, a hand-stitched leather steering wheel, and a bow thruster control. The G Series navigation and ship-systems integration handles battery and power distribution, with a warning that flags if shore power remains connected before departure. The captain's seat adjusts up and down and fore and aft, with a flip-up bolster, flip-up footrest, and the ability to stand. The companion forward seat sinks electrically to bench level for a fully open salon, and a large opening sunroof joins the side windows to open the interior to the air.

The aft cockpit uses L-shaped bench seating around a drop-down table that converts to a sunpad, set on teak flooring that continues across the swim platform. A starboard wet bar includes a grill, sink, ice maker, fridge and the aft piloting station with joystick. A remote-controlled sun shade slides out overhead, and walk-through doors with stainless bollards sit on both sides. The tender garage holds a Williams jet tender and, when opened, extends one of the largest swim platforms in its class into a beach club, complete with a passarelle. The bow carries a sun pad with headrests plus a separate seating sofa, a Fusion stereo and drink holders.

Below, the full-beam midship master has a walk-around king berth, windows on both sides, a vanity and seating area, a forward-bulkhead TV, an inboard combination washer/dryer, and an ensuite with a separate stall shower and vacuum-flush head. The full-beam VIP forward also has a walk-around king and ensuite, while the third cabin holds side-by-side twin berths and shares the guest head and shower with the VIP. A separate crew cabin is concealed in the bow, rare on a 55-footer, and doubles as storage for owners who pilot themselves. The galley features folding countertops, a stainless sink, cooktop, fridge, freezer and wine cooler.
