CARPE DIEM

CARPE DIEM — 2023 Azimut, cruising The Bahamas Delivered in 2023, CARPE DIEM carries the design language Azimut has refined over decades: taut exterior lines, glass used generously, and an open-plan interior that keeps the sea in view from almost anywhere on board. She is a modern yacht in the truest sense — built to move well, but laid out for the way guests actually live at anchor. Accommodation is arranged across five cabins for up to ten guests. The full-beam owner's cabin sits on the main deck, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a spa-style en suite finished in marble, double vanities and a rainfall shower. Below, two VIP cabins are joined by a cabin with twin beds and a further cabin with a double bed. Every guest cabin has its own en suite with rainfall shower. Detailed bed configuration available on request. The main salon opens directly off the aft deck lounge, so the two spaces read as one when the doors are back. Oversized windows fill the room with light; pale sofas, a drop-down television and restrained finishes make it as suited to a film after dinner as to cocktails before it. Forward, the formal dining area looks out over whichever anchorage you have chosen that evening. Outside, the deck spaces have been thought through rather than simply filled. The aft deck offers shaded dining and a discreet pop-up television. The flybridge is where the day tends to gather — full bar, dining table, sun loungers, a jacuzzi, and a retractable sunroof for when the Bahamian sun becomes a matter of preference rather than pleasure. The foredeck adds oversized sunpads and seating, best kept for sundowners. At anchor, the garage door folds down to form a beach club and extended swim platform at water level — the natural staging point for time in the water. Guests who keep to a routine will find a Peloton, weights and yoga mats aboard. A crew of five runs the yacht, with the kind of anticipatory service that keeps a charter week feeling effortless: attentive when it matters, invisible when it doesn't.
