2013 Azimut 45

The 2013 Azimut 45 is a flybridge yacht built with advanced composite construction methods. The hull and superstructure were manufactured using infusion technology, reducing weight while maintaining structural integrity. The design incorporates PVC foam sandwich panels throughout the hull, deck, and deckhouse, with DCPD resin used internally and vinylester resins for the exterior layers to resist osmosis and staining. The hull structure was validated through FEM analysis, the same computational method used in aerospace and automotive engineering. RINA certification confirms the structural design meets European approval standards.

Twin Cummins diesel engines totaling 960 horsepower provide propulsion. The yacht accommodates two cabins and two heads, with a main saloon and flybridge for entertaining and cruising.

Recent maintenance includes new bottom paint with Propspeed antifouling, new cabin carpet, 1000-hour service on both engines and generator, new underwater lighting, and a new air conditioning unit installed in the main saloon.
