The 74 sits near the top of LYG’s size range

At 74 feet, the yacht remains below LYG’s 24-metre ceiling while delivering the scale and accommodation of a substantial flybridge cruiser. Four cabins support family use or guests without moving into full superyacht territory, and the layout preserves generous shared spaces on both main and upper decks.

The broad main deck and exterior spaces create multiple social zones, while the owner’s accommodation benefits from the beam available at this length. That combination makes the yacht suitable for longer seasonal cruising rather than only short coastal weekends.

Twin MAN V12s provide 2,800hp

Power comes from twin MAN CR V12 engines rated at 1,400hp each. The listing quotes a cruising speed around 26 knots and a maximum close to 32 knots, giving the yacht strong passage-making capability for a vessel carrying four guest cabins and extensive domestic equipment.

Twin Kohler 19kW generators support hotel loads, while a 300-litre-per-hour watermaker reduces dependence on marina water during longer stays aboard. These systems make the yacht better suited to extended anchoring and multi-day Mediterranean itineraries.

Recent maintenance is part of the market story

The brokerage notes recent maintenance and servicing, an important consideration on a five-to-six-year-old yacht with high-output diesel machinery. Buyers will want to review service records for engines, generators, stabilisation and navigation systems before survey.

A distinctive grey-blue hull finish gives the yacht a recognisable exterior profile. Cosmetic condition can strongly influence market appeal in this price bracket, particularly when buyers compare several similar recent-build yachts.

Cannes puts the yacht in the centre of the Riviera market

The yacht is based in Cannes, within one of Europe’s most active luxury-yacht regions. Nice, Monaco, Antibes and major shipyards are all close enough for survey, maintenance and sea trials.

At just under €3 million, the Azimut 74 represents a recent-build option with significant size and speed. Its combination of four cabins, 32-knot performance and Riviera location makes it relevant to buyers wanting immediate Mediterranean availability.
