Three Volvo Penta engines and a hull built to use them properly.
Triple IPS 1350 pod drives, 1,000 horsepower apiece, give the S8 a 34 knot top speed and a settled 27 knot cruise, brisk numbers for a yacht carrying this much volume. Active trim control and joystick driving keep her composed at speed and genuinely easy to manoeuvre at the dock, a detail that matters more on a 24 metre yacht than a smaller one. A 4,000 litre fuel capacity underpins real cruising range rather than a figure that only holds at idle. Carbon fibre used through the hull and superstructure keeps weight in check, so the power on tap goes into genuine performance rather than simply moving extra mass.
Four ensuite cabins on a 24 metre hull is a genuinely rare proposition.
The master suite sits amidships and spans the full 5.6 metre beam, the most stable position on board and the one with the most natural light. Three further cabins complete the accommodation, each with its own bathroom, bringing sleeping capacity to eight guests without anyone sharing a shower. A separate intermediate deck kitchen and an independent crew entrance keep service discreet, allowing three crew to run the yacht without crossing paths with guests. Wide gangways throughout make the interior easy to move through even when the yacht is full, a small detail that says a great deal about how carefully the layout was planned.
Two bar areas, one on the fly deck and one at the stern, tell you how the S8 is meant to be used.
The central saloon extends directly into the cockpit, removing the usual threshold between indoor and outdoor life and letting a single gathering flow from air conditioned comfort to open air without anyone noticing the change. Expansive windows keep the saloon filled with natural light throughout the day. Aft, the transom is built to carry both a tender and a jet ski, so the day’s water toys are ready the moment the yacht drops anchor. Between the two bars and the open transom, entertaining twelve day guests never feels like a logistical exercise.
Francesco Guida has given the S8 an interior that favours calm over spectacle.
Light filled and generously proportioned, the saloon carries through into four cabins finished with the same restrained hand, each with an individual bathroom rather than a shared arrangement. The full beam master suite amidships is the standout, its position chosen for stability at sea as much as for its size. Wide gangways and considered sightlines keep circulation easy even with a full complement of eight guests and three crew on board. It is an interior built to be lived in over a real cruise rather than admired for an afternoon at the dock, and that distinction shows in every corridor and cabin door.
The S8 is the largest yacht in Azimut’s sporting S range, and she wears that scale with ease.
At 24 metres with a 5.6 metre beam and a displacement of around 83 tonnes, she carries genuine volume without losing the sporting character that defines the range. Azimut’s own naval architecture and engineering teams built her, with Alberto Mancini and Francesco Guida responsible for exterior and interior design respectively. Day capacity runs to 12 guests, with overnight accommodation for eight guests and three crew, a configuration suited to serious family cruising or a light charter programme. Priced from 3,950,000 euros new, she sits at the top of the S range’s current lineup, and for an owner who wants the most complete yacht Azimut currently builds in this style, she is very hard to look past.
