Azimut 68S For Sale

The Azimut 68S is an Italian-built flybridge-style sports yacht measuring roughly 68 feet with a beam of nearly 17 feet, a width that adds stability while opening up the living space across the cockpit and main deck. Built in model years spanning the mid-2000s through 2009, this Azimut 68S yacht carries three staterooms, three heads and a separate crew quarter, suiting owners who want extended cruising and entertaining capacity without moving up to a full superyacht. Boarding is straightforward over a large hydraulic swim platform that lowers below the waterline on a marine lift, a feature the design lends to dining with feet in the water or launching the tender from a dedicated garage built into the transom.

Power comes from twin 1,300-horsepower diesels mounted aft, with the engine room accessed directly from the cockpit rather than through salon hatches. A generator sits at the back of the machinery space, and each engine is served by its own Racor fuel filtration. The helm runs electronic engine controls paired with bow and stern thrusters, which make handling a boat of this size in tight quarters manageable. The Azimut 68S is heavily represented in the Mediterranean, where its electrically operated stern boarding ramp suits Med-style mooring, and far less common in markets like the Pacific Northwest.

The helm station is finished in Italian leather, including a fully electrically adjustable seat and a leather-wrapped wheel, with a copilot bench beside it that seats two. Instrumentation combines a full electronics suite — autopilot, radar and VHF — with around 14 analog engine gauges for at-a-glance monitoring of the power plants. A second independent operating system lets one person watch the chart while another monitors the fishfinder. Practical touches include an electric chain counter with anchor controls at the helm and on the bow, recessed switch panels to prevent accidental knocks, and electrically operated engine-room air vents that open underway and close at the dock.

The cockpit is built for outdoor living with a fold-up table, deck chairs, a bar sink, a sun pad larger than a king-size bed, and a power sunshade that retracts flush into the molding. Wide side decks protected by tall stainless steel safety rails run to the foredeck on both sides, and electric mooring winches with foot switches handle dock lines. Large stainless steel and smoke-glass doors connect the cockpit to a salon lit by curved side windows and a five-panel sunroof. Inside, port-side seating faces a television, and a solid walnut table rises and lowers electrically to clear the grab rails when stowed.

The galley sits down on the port side and was on some examples enlarged by removing a central bulkhead. It is laid out with a conventional work triangle of stove, refrigerator and twin stainless steel sinks set into a stainless countertop, plus a convection microwave. An adjacent AC distribution panel manages the generator, battery charger, icemaker and dishwasher, and a wine cellar and liquor cabinet are tucked under the stairs. The full-beam master cabin amidships features Azimut's signature stacked side windows, a queen walk-around bed, a glass basin, a bidet and a stand-up shower; a forward VIP cabin offers its own queen walk-around bed and private head, while a third cabin carries two single berths and a cedar-lined hanging locker. A laundry room with a washer and dryer serves all three.

When evaluating an Azimut 68S for sale, condition and hours vary widely between hulls — some are presented with low running hours and extensive refit work, including repainted hulls and superstructure and upgraded fabrics and systems — so the specific equipment list and engine hours should drive the Azimut 68S price on any given boat. Buyers reviewing Azimut 68S specs should confirm the generator, thruster fit-out, electronics package and the condition of the swim-platform lift and tender garage mechanisms.
