Commencing our voyage with the Azimut 82 Fly, this delightfully impressive addition to the shipyard’s portfolio reaffirms their eminence in sculpting the most fashionable flybridge yachts. The brainchildren behind this masterpiece are Alberto Mancini, the exterior designer, and Fabio Fantalini, the interior designer, whose combined efforts have given rise to the epitome of avant-garde design and luxury.
Adorned with an exceptional semi-vertical bow, a striking feature pioneered by Azimut, the 82 Fly ensures pristine performance by ejecting water out efficiently. Complimenting the striking beauty of the hull are spacious, staggered windows bringing an abundance of natural light to the lower decks.
Lateral Naval Architects, creating waves of change in collaboration with the globally celebrated Foster + Partners, is set to challenge the classic designs of 2,000 GT yachts. Their groundbreaking creation, the ‘Outlier’, an 88.5-metre platform aims to upturn conventional norms with its inventive design, superior efficiency and user-friendly spaces. Lateral Naval Architects’ Ollie Cooper describes the Outlier as a unique platform, calling upon yacht owners and designers to re-imagine yachts as more than mere boats on the sea, but as dynamic structures with unrestricted potential.
