The Italian builder will show eight models at the Miami International Boat Show, with Sanlorenzo, Absolute and Fairline also announcing line-ups.

Azimut Magellano 30M

Azimut will stage the world premiere of the Magellano 30M (click for Review) at the Miami International Boat Show (February 14-18), albeit 1½ years since the model was expected to debut at the 2022 Cannes Yachting Festival before a late cancellation.

The yacht is the flagship of the expanding Magellano series and features an exterior by American Ken Freivokh with an interior by Italian architect Vincenzo De Cotiis, with both having also designed the Magellano 25M.

The Italian motor yacht builder will also stage the US debut of the new Fly 72, which had its world premiere at last year’s Cannes show and is the shipyard’s first model to feature interiors by Fabio Fantolino.

Azimut’s eight models at Herald Plaza include its 38m flagship Grande Trideck, the Fly 53 and Fly 68 flybridge models, S7 sportbridge, Magellano 60 and Verve 48 outboard cruiser, with the latter two world premieres at Cannes last September.

Sanlorenzo SD90

Sanlorenzo and its dealer Sanlorenzo of the Americas will show an SD90 from the Italian shipyard’s semi-displacement series, an SL86 and SL90A asymmetrical model from its planing line, and an SX88, the first model in its iconic crossover series.

Absolute is showing four models at Herald Plaza ranging from its 48 Coupé to the Navetta 52, Navetta 58 and Navetta 75, the inland Italian builder’s flagship model.

From the UK, Fairline is showing four models including the F//Line 33, which appears in the new Argylle film starring the likes of Henry Cavill, Samuel L. Jackson and Dua Lipa. The Oundle shipyard will also show the Targa 45 Open, Squadron 50 and flagship Squadron 68.

Steve Leeson, President of Fairline Americas, said: “We’re excited to kick off our US boat show season at Miami with an impressive line-up. Visitors will have the opportunity to catch up with our team about what we’re bringing to the US later in this year and get on board some Fairline favourites, including the F//Line 33, which plays a starring role alongside an A-list cast in Argylle.”

Italy’s Fiart will show the Seawalker 35 and 39 models at the North Dock stand with YachtCreators, its exclusive importer for US. Meanwhile, French catamaran builder Fountaine Pajot will display the Isla 40, Elba 45, Tanna 47 and Aura 51 sailing cats and MY6 powercat, while sister yard Dufour will show its 41, 470 and 530 sailing monohulls.

Among superyacht brokers, Burgess is showing the 25.2m Incentivized, which was launched last year and is the ninth hull in the AB 80 series by Italy’s AB Yachts. Featuring exteriors by ACube Design Studio and fitted with triple MAN V12-2000 diesel engines, Incentivized can reach 57 knots and cruise at 45 knots, while zero-speed stabilisers contribute to comfort at anchor.

Jonathan Beckett, Chief Executive of Burgess, said: “We look forward to kicking off a robust 2024 at the Miami International Boat Show after enjoying a banner year in 2023 with more than US$1.3 billion in brokerage sales and 804 charters.

“We’ve long been participating in the annual Miami show. It’s a hub for superyachts and given the tremendous wealth migration to the city, we feel it holds an ever important place on the international yacht show schedule. With our office in the city’s financial district, we’re always happy to showcase our expertise and inventory to those in search of a yacht for charter or purchase.”
