Since its debut in 2020, the Azimut Magellano 25M continues to impress. This multi-award-winning entry in Azimut’s long-range series is tailored for owners seeking an expedition-style yacht with a balance of timeless elegance and practical function, rather than outright speed. This 82-foot vessel combines traditional trawler aesthetics with contemporary design and modern technology. Designed by Ken Freivokh, who launched the initial Magellano models in 2009, it showcases a classic hull shape with a near-vertical bow and a glass-filled superstructure that resembles a floating penthouse. Distinct oval windows and teak panels add a touch of retro charm while refining its overall look.
The Azimut Magellano 25M offers a sophisticated, relaxed lifestyle at sea. Its main salon boasts full-height windows, abundant natural light, and an open layout, creating a sense of spaciousness usually found on much larger yachts. A dining table seats eight, and the galley is located forward on the main deck. De Cotiis’ interior design includes bespoke furnishings and fiberglass art, giving the space a warm, unique character. The lower deck houses four ensuite staterooms, including a full-beam owner’s suite with a seating area and walk-in closet, along with two VIPs and a twin.
A standout feature is the flybridge, reached via a spiral staircase. This area provides lounging, dining, and cooking spaces, some under a carbon fiber hardtop. Aft, there’s a wet bar and grill, and forward is a raised pilothouse.
Customization is key, with options like the Beach version (fold-down transom) or Tender version (water toy garage). Interior layouts are also flexible. Powered by twin MAN V12 1,400 hp engines, the yacht features a Dual Mode hull by Pierluigi Ausonio for enhanced efficiency and stability, achieving a 700-nautical-mile range at 12 knots. The Azimut Magellano 25M stands out for its volume, layout, and aesthetic, offering an attractive option for those who value elegant, slow cruising.
