Azimut Yachts, the prestigious Italian luxury yacht builder has launched its new Azimut Grande 25 Metri at Cannes Yachts Festival in 2018.
A successor to the AZ 80 series, the new semi-custom model features a Carbon Tech superstructure, roll bar, hardtop and transom with a tender garage. It is said to be the smallest superyacht of the moment.

The crew has a complete separate circuit and quarters, enabling the owner and his guests a maximum privacy experience.
Potential clients also have the option to separate the galley and helm station from other areas with sliding doors and frosted glass panels, enabling the crew to work without disturbing the owner and guests.
Achille Salvagni has been handed the interior design brief and has concentrated on accentuating informality. A traditional layout separating seating and dining areas has been discarded in favor of one big open-plan living area. Should no-one be dining inside, guests will be able to enjoy two living areas while a table in front of the sofa can be raised to become a dining table for eight when needed. A more traditional layout is also available.
Accommodation is for eight, with three double beds and one twin. Meanwhile, the crew quarters can accommodate a staff of three. It is equipped with a cabin for the captain and a second cabin with bunk beds, along with a crew mess that can be accessed from a separate way aft.
Power will come from a pair of 1,650 hp Man engines to reach a top speed of 29 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots. Alternatively, clients can opt for two 1,800 hp Man engines.

This Azimut vessel holds 290 gal of water. How long will that typically last for 8 passengers + 3 crew? What industry metric is normally used when it comes to water usage on a yacht?
Daniel Mihai Popescu says
Pretty low water quantity, for sure. They must have a water maker like this one (https://www.bluewaterdesalination.com/watermakers/explorer-lx), otherwise water is not enough for a whole day. The smallest one makes 85 gallons per hour. Fortunately the toilets are flushed with sea water, and the decks are washed just the same. The metric I know and recommend is “economy”.
