AZIMUT GRANDE 26
ST JUDE is an exceptional Azimut Grande 26M, combining Italian design pedigree, advanced engineering and an unusually rich specification. Presented in excellent condition and used only lightly as a private yacht since delivery, she offers the rare opportunity to step aboard a highly appointed Grande 26M without the wait associated with a new build.
Drawn by Alberto Mancini, the Grande 26M captures Azimut’s unmistakable contemporary style in a yacht that feels both elegant and purposeful. Her carbon-fibre superstructure brings lightness and efficiency to the design, while upgraded engines deliver confident performance with a top speed of 26 knots.
Comfort has been placed at the heart of her specification. Fin stabilizers are complemented by the upgraded Seakeeper 40 gyro, creating a composed and assured experience whether underway or at anchor. Pod-drive propulsion further enhances the ease of handling, bringing effortless control to marina manoeuvres and coastal cruising alike.
Inside, the Achille Salvagni Architetti interior creates a calm and sophisticated atmosphere, shaped by soft contemporary lines, generous natural light and carefully considered spaces. Expansive glazing draws the sea into the main deck, while the separation of dining and salon areas gives the interior an elegant sense of flow. The upgraded galley, complete with a serving window opening directly into the dining space, supports discreet and seamless service.
Accommodation is arranged for up to 11 guests across five cabins, balancing generous guest capacity with an intimate, private feel. The full-beam owner’s suite occupies a privileged position on the main deck and was tailored for the original owner with additional sound insulation, blackout blinds and an oversized 2m x 2m bed. Large hull-side windows, generous storage and a private ensuite create a retreat that is serene, comfortable and beautifully practical.
The lower deck hosts four further guest cabins, comprising two doubles and two twins, all with ensuite bathrooms. A Pullman berth in the port guest cabin and sliding beds in the starboard cabin add valuable flexibility, making ST JUDE equally well suited to family cruising, guests and relaxed time on board.
Life outside is one of ST JUDE’s great pleasures. The optional Deck2Deck folding sea terrace transforms the aft deck into an expansive waterside lounge, creating an effortless connection between yacht and sea. With a large dining table and bar area, this becomes a beautifully sociable setting for long lunches, sunset drinks and days spent close to the water.
The flybridge continues the emphasis on open-air living, with dining for 10 guests, an American-style bar, BBQ grill, opening hardtop and secondary helm station. Forward, the bow lounge offers a more private space for sunbathing or quiet conversation, giving guests a choice of distinct outdoor settings throughout the day.
Azimut’s BCOOL air treatment system adds another layer of comfort on board, continuously introducing filtered fresh air and incorporating UV sanitisation technology to maintain a refined interior environment.
With her elevated specification, graceful design language and excellent condition, ST JUDE presents as a standout Azimut Grande 26M: a yacht that blends performance, comfort and understated luxury in a highly desirable ownership package.
