Say the name Magellano and you immediately think of long, exhilarating voyages, the thrill of discovering far-flung new destinations and the desire to explore and constantly push the boundaries. It’s no coincidence that Azimut Yachts named their long-range collection after the great Portuguese explorer. From the moment it debuted in 2009, the collection became synonymous with stress-free cruising and extended trips in total safety and peace of mind.
Every model in the Magellano family is a navetta, a contemporary take on the traditional trawler. True to its roots, the Magellano is characterised by voluminous lines and a no-nonsense almost naval appearance which shuns changing fashions and trends, yet remains timeless and never looks outdated.
And while the launch of the new Magellano 25 METRI, designed by the great Ken Freivokh with interiors by the renowned creative talent Vincenzo De Cotiis, is just weeks away, there is yet another Magellano on the horizon. The flagship of flagships, the Magellano 30 METRI, is currently taking shape.
A super-elegant navetta, it will feature the trademark classic lines of its sisters, revisited in a more sophisticated, contemporary key, with Freivokh again the design brain behind it. On the technical front, the lynchpin will again be the Dual Mode hull, with its outstanding efficiency whether in displacement mode or at higher speeds.
Nobody knows if Ferdinando Magellano would be proud of Azimut Yachts’ work, but for sure the brand shares with him a passion to always go further, overcoming whatever challenges it may encounter on its way as it explores ever-expanding horizons.
