Azimut was founded in Italy in 1969 by Paolo Vitelli, a college student at the time. Early on, Paolo had great success in chartering sailboats and in building small luxury yachts, and his business has dramatically expanded to Azimut being widely recognized as the world’s top builder of luxury yachts. Azimut Yachts provides all services related to yachts: from design, cutting-edge technology, materials, and components to skilled team members who craft interiors and furniture matching the highest quality standards seen in top-end hotels and residences. Azimut Yacht has been ranked No. 1 for 19 consecutive years in prestigious boat magazine rankings.
