Why This Vessel

The hardest dollars on a 20-year-old motor yacht are the ones already spent here. Most Azimut 55s in this price range still have their original engines and transmissions — meaning the next major service interval, and its cost, belongs to the buyer.

On this boat, that work is done: over $200,000 in professionally rebuilt CAT C12 engines and rebuilt transmissions, with the paperwork to prove it. You're buying the result, not the risk.

Three Reasons She Stands Apart

The expensive work is behind her, and documented. Rebuilt engines, rebuilt transmissions, an August 2025 bottom job and PropSpeed service, and a 2023 survey on file. Diligence you can verify, not promises.

She's turn-key for the season. Fin stabilizers, bow thruster, full electronics, and a complete comfort package mean she's ready to cruise now, not after a major refit.

The value math favors the buyer. Comparable 55s without documented rebuilds list in the same range — then hand the new owner a six-figure engine bill. Here, that work has already been completed.

For a buyer who wants a proven, well-equipped 55-foot motor yacht without inheriting a major mechanical project, this is a rare and straightforward opportunity.
