This beautiffuly presented 55 Azimut - late model, low hours and dfficult to get with long lead times it is a fantastic option for a potential new boat buyer.

With an interior that grabs your attention the moment you set foot inside the yacht's saloon, thanks to its audacious mix of colours, materials and an eye for artistic flourishes rarely seen on a boat of this size and price.

There is a brave mix of dark and light woodwork and recessed bronze-leaf highlights that gives the impression the cabinets and counter tops are floating. And the bold pastel upholstery fabric really pops against the monochrome palette of the lower dashboard and helm seats.

With a neat curved return (naturally), the galley is well placed to serve both internal and external deck spaces and the raised dinette amidships with settee opposite is sociably arranged and in the best position to drink in the elevated views.

Below decks the layout and décor are no less intriguing, especially in the master cabin, which has an angled island berth and a host of delightful styling cues that are more reminiscent of an upmarket hotel suite than a boat's cabin. Again, the texture and colour choices are rich and varied and the lamps are statement pieces in themselves.

A pair of chrome spotlights sprout from the ceiling to provide bright beams for reading in bed and there's a signature Salvagni chest of drawers dominating the space to port.  

The forward cabin and bunk cabin are no less impressive.

The space on the flybridge has been used to great effect. Most notably aft, where  fixed furniture in this case pair of low-slung L-shaped sofas facing each other across a coffee table creates another practical but stylish social area.

The 800hp MAN i6 diesels on V-drives provide ample shove and remain smooth and quiet through to full revs.

At 1,800rpm they are barely breaking a sweat yet the boat runs just shy of 20 knots, consuming around 180lph and with noise levels at only 70 dB(A). If you are in no hurry this is a blissful cruising speed.

Between Azimut,  Stefano Righini & Achille Salvagni this is somthing really special.
