The Magellano 66 is a prestigious expedition-style flybridge model from Azimut Yachts that bridges the gap between traditional trawlers and fast cruising yachts. As a part of Azimut’s Magellano Collection, this model is defined by its award-winning, semi-displacement “Dual Mode Hull,” offering exceptional stability, comfort across a wide range of speeds, and superior fuel efficiency for long-distance voyages. It appeals to owners who desire a yacht that is robust enough for extensive cruising but sleek enough to retain Italian style.
The Magellano 66 is a meter ( ) motor yacht built with a GRP hull and featuring carbon fiber components in the superstructure. The yacht’s naval architecture, designed in collaboration with Pierluigi Ausonio, features a unique Dual Mode Hull with two chines, enabling the yacht to operate efficiently in both full displacement mode (low speed, high range) and planing mode (higher speed). The exterior, styled by Cor D. Rover, is robust yet elegant, featuring a vertical bow and high bulwarks that protect the side decks. The interior is characterized by a high degree of flexibility, offering two main deck layouts: an open space version or a “Navetta” layout which separates the galley and helm for enhanced crew-guest privacy.
