SATISFACTION

SATISFACTION — 26.82m (88ft) Azimut, 2017, refit 2024 An Azimut 88 is a known quantity: Italian build, generous volume for her length, and the kind of planing performance that turns a long coastal hop into an afternoon rather than a day. SATISFACTION cruises at 22 knots and tops out at 28 — enough to leave Florida after breakfast and be anchored off a Bahamian sandbar for a late lunch. Delivered in 2017 and refitted in 2024, she carries eight guests in four en-suite cabins: the owner's cabin, one with a queen-size bed, one with a double bed, and one with twin beds. Detailed bed configuration is available on request. A crew of three looks after the yacht and her guests — a ratio that keeps service attentive and unobtrusive rather than ceremonial, which suits the way this size of yacht is actually used: family weeks, small groups of friends, easy island-hopping without formality. Her programme follows the season closely. Summers run the length of the US East Coast — New England, the Northeast and Southeast, Florida — with the Bahamas within comfortable reach. Winters are spent between Florida's east coast, the Southeast and the Bahamas, where her speed and shallow-water cruising grounds work particularly well together: Exumas one day, Abacos the next. For charterers who want a fast, well-kept motor yacht with proper private accommodation for four couples and a crew who know these waters, SATISFACTION makes a straightforward case.
