A Rare Convergence of Italian Design
and Bluewater Readiness
Seldom does a yacht present itself with such an exceptional alignment of provenance, condition, and specification. This 2023 Azimut 68 Fly — hull constructed at the celebrated Azimut shipyard in Viareggio, Italy — stands as one of the most comprehensively equipped yachts available today on the Mexican Pacific coast.
"At 1,000 hours, this yacht sits in the sweet spot of its operational life — fully broken in, impeccably maintained, and ready to deliver decades of trouble-free bluewater cruising."
The 68 Fly is the flagship expression of Azimut's mid-range flybridge line — a platform that has earned critical acclaim for the sophistication of its interior architecture, the seakeeping qualities of its vacuum-infused hull, and the unmistakable exterior profile penned by Stefano Righini. Every proportion, every surface transition, every piece of hardware has been specified to a standard that competing yards simply do not match at this price point.
The main salon is a study in restrained Italian luxury: floor-to-ceiling glazing floods the open-plan living area with natural light, framing the Pacific horizon as a living canvas. Genuine teak joinery, full-grain leather upholstery, and solid-surface countertops in the galley confirm that the previous owner did not compromise during the options selection process.
On the flybridge — the social epicenter of any serious yacht — the factory-fitted hardtop provides permanent shade and weather protection without sacrificing the commanding 360-degree views. A secondary helm station, lounge seating for eight, wet bar, and integrated barbecue transform this space into the ideal platform for entertaining along the coast of Jalisco, Nayarit, or the remote anchorages of Oaxaca and Guerrero.
Below decks, the accommodation plan delivers four guest staterooms, each with a private en-suite head, alongside a dedicated crew cabin and crew head with independent access — preserving the privacy that charterers and owners alike demand. The full-beam master stateroom aft, bathed in natural light through oversized portlights on both sides, sets a standard of onboard comfort rarely encountered outside vessels of a significantly larger class.
PROPULSION & PERFORMANCE
Volvo Penta IPS 1350 —
The Benchmark in Yacht Propulsion
The engineering centerpiece of this Azimut is the twin Volvo Penta IPS 1350 pod drive system — a propulsion architecture that fundamentally redefines what a 70-foot yacht can do. Forward-facing counter-rotating propellers deliver thrust in the direction of travel, eliminating prop walk and reducing fuel consumption by up to 30% versus conventional shaft systems at equivalent speeds.
In practical terms: effortless single-handed docking in the tightest marina berths, joystick maneuvering that inspires confidence in any conditions, a cruising speed of 28–30 knots, and a top-end that exceeds 34 knotswhen the Pacific opens up. The IPS platform is also substantially quieter and smoother than shaft drives — a detail that matters profoundly on extended passages or overnight anchorages.
With 1,000 hours recorded, both engines have completed their critical break-in period and are performing within factory tolerances. Full service documentation is available for buyer review.
