The marque

Azimut was founded in 1969 by Paolo Vitelli in Avigliana, near Turin, and grew from a small sailing-boat charter business into one of the world's largest megayacht builders.

01 — Fitment notes

Most 23.6-metre yachts carry a tender of roughly three to four metres, whether on the platform, on davits or in a compact garage. The Azimut Fly 78 is squarely in that band, which opens up the core of the Williams range.

Below, the fleet ranked for a 23.6-metre yacht — guidance, not gospel, until your stowage plan has its say.

02 — The Surmarine Selection

Hand-built in Turin.

The full Surmarine line — Super Tenders, the Easy open tenders and the featherweight Light Tenders — from the atelier that has built them by hand since 1999.
