The Azimut 40 is a 40-foot luxury flybridge yacht launched by the Avigliana, Italy-based firm in 2005. One of the more compact vessels offered by Azimut, this yacht nevertheless impresses with a wealth of outdoor space, a curvaceous Stefano Righini-designed exterior and lavish internal spaces from the artistic hand of renowned stylist Carlo Galeazzi. The open top flybridge on this model comes equipped with structural supports for a Bimini roof for added protection from the elements, and is large enough to host a rear, L-shaped sofa, a starboard side cocoon-lounge with a spacious sunpad, and an upper helm station to port. Out on the foredeck there is also a sunpad space big enough for three sunbathers to soak up the afternoon sun. Azimut is excellent at building flybridge areas that are versatile and fun.
