Stepping up in the Grande fleet
The 32M carries the collection into full 32-metre superyacht territory while keeping the fast, glass-heavy character that defines the range. It sleeps ten guests across five cabins and houses a crew of five, so it is set up for extended and charter-style programmes. This is a serious yacht that still moves with real pace. The size gives it presence in any harbour it enters. For owners ready to step up, it delivers scale without losing the family feel of the smaller Grande boats.
Beam matches the 30M at 7.3 metres, and construction blends GRP with carbon-fibre elements to manage weight. Stefano Righini drew the exterior and Achille Salvagni Architetti shaped the interior. The naval architecture comes from P.L. Ausonio and the yard's research department. The pairing gives the boat a bold profile and a richly detailed cabin, and it reads as a proper superyacht from every angle.
Design and outdoor spaces
Full-height windows run the length of the main deck, flooding the saloon with light and dissolving the line between inside and the sea. The transom opens into a beach club of roughly 18 square metres, a true waterline lounge with the tender stowed out of the way. The flybridge is a complete upper deck with helm, bar and sunbathing under an optional hardtop. Foredeck seating adds another outdoor room forward. The exterior stance is long and purposeful on the water.
Wide side decks make the boat easy and safe to move around for guests of every age. The glazing gives the 32M a modern, layered look that carries the yard's newest design language. At anchor the boat lets a large group scatter across several zones in comfort. A bathing platform brings swimmers down to the sea. Every outdoor space has been drawn to serve a distinct purpose.

Interior and accommodation
Achille Salvagni Architetti brought a sculptural, warm sensibility to the interior, with the owner's suite enjoying panoramic sea views. Five cabins and six guest heads mean every stateroom is a private retreat. The main-deck saloon feels like a bright, glass-walled apartment open to the water. The volumes are generous throughout thanks to the width and the carbon build. Materials are chosen to feel warm underfoot and to age gracefully.
Crew accommodation and three crew heads support professional operation on longer cruises. Service flow, galley placement and stowage are all worked out for weeks aboard with guests. Hull windows draw daylight into the lower cabins so they stay bright. The layout keeps owner and guest zones distinct for privacy. For an owner who entertains formally, the interior carries real presence.
Engineering and pace
Twin MTU engines at 2,200 hp push the 32M to a top speed of around 27 knots, with a cruise near 21 knots. That is quick for a yacht of this volume and displacement. The D2P hull and the carbon-tech construction trim fuel by a claimed 20 to 30 per cent against conventional yachts of similar size. The saving shows up directly in the running cost per mile. Owners get pace and efficiency in the same hull.
The naval architecture is tuned for a level, quiet ride at speed so guests stay comfortable. Longer coastal runs pass without fuss thanks to the stable platform. The boat holds its attitude cleanly through the mid-range. Handling stays predictable even at the top of the speed range. It is a well-judged blend of comfort and performance.
Who it is for
The 32M suits the owner who wants a true 32-metre superyacht that keeps the light-filled, fast personality of the smaller Grande boats. Buyers who love glass, an open beach club and a real flybridge will feel at home. It is built for hosting at scale across a full season. The five-cabin layout and crew of five support ambitious itineraries. For many owners it is the point where the Grande line becomes a genuine superyacht.
It also fits owners who want charter-grade accommodation with the option to earn from the boat between private trips. For a Mediterranean summer with a professional crew and guests in rotation, the 32M delivers space, light and speed together. The desirable size keeps resale interest strong. Its beach club and glazing set it apart from rivals at the length. Owning one is as practical as it is thrilling.
المحركات والأنظمة
| Engines | Twin MTU 16V 2000 M86 diesels, 1,630 kW / about 2,200 hp combined output. |
|---|---|
| Hull | Azimut's D2P (Displacement-to-Planing) hull with carbon-fibre elements in the build - the yard's own figure claims a 20-30 percent fuel saving against a conventional planing hull of similar size at both slow and fast cruise, a manufacturer claim rather than an independently measured one. |
| Fuel | 16,000-litre tank. |
| Range | Sources agree on roughly 1,000 nm at a 12-knot economic cruise; quoted top-end range varies more widely, from about 500 to 1,300 nm depending on speed, which nobody has broken into a single sourced table. |
| What is not published | No outlet checked gives an independently measured fuel-burn figure at a stated speed - every range number traces back to Azimut's own material. |
ما يذكره الملاك والأطقم
The deck and cabin layout reads as genuinely well used, not just spacious
YachtBuyer's walkthrough praised the shaded cockpit, the full-service flybridge (helm, bar, dining, sunbeds, hot tub, barbecue) and the tender garage's hydraulic launch system as practical rather than decorative.
YachtBuyerNo independently critical sea trial has been published for this model
Every account found - YachtBuyer, Barche Magazine and the yard's own material - is a walkthrough or feature piece; none puts the boat through the kind of test that has produced named criticisms for comparable Ferretti Group or Princess flybridges.

نقاط القوة وما يستدعي الانتباه
نقاط القوة
- Genuinely large, well-specified beach club for the lengthAn 18 square-metre transom beach club with the tender stowed elsewhere, independently confirmed as a highlight by YachtBuyer's walkthrough.
- Real efficiency engineering, not just a big-tank range claimThe D2P hull and carbon build are a specific, named engineering approach to cutting fuel burn, not a generic marketing line - though the 20-30 percent figure is the yard's own and unverified independently.
- Fast for the displacement27 knots top speed on a full 32-metre, five-cabin superyacht is genuinely quick for the class.
ما يستدعي الانتباه
- No independent critical test exists yetUnlike comparable Ferretti and Princess flybridges that have been road-tested by Motor Boat & Yachting, every published account of the Grande 32M is a dealer-style walkthrough - there is no independently sourced criticism to weigh against the praise.
- Published range figures are inconsistentSources agree on about 1,000 nm at 12 knots but diverge sharply elsewhere (500-1,300 nm depending on speed), with no single outlet publishing a full speed-versus-range table - a buyer cannot yet check the yard's efficiency claim against an independent figure.
- New pricing is not publishedEvery price found is a used asking price; Azimut does not publish a base price for the model, unlike some rivals in the class.
