The Azimut Magellano 25M is the point where the Magellano concept stops feeling like an oversized cruising boat and starts behaving like a compact superyacht. At 82′ 9″ overall with a 20′ 8″ beam, it carries four guest cabins, accommodation for three crew, a raised pilothouse and an enclosed galley that can be separated from the guest spaces. The defining decision is privacy: guests can live across the main and lower decks while crew move, cook and operate the yacht without constantly crossing the social spaces.
That separation is paired with Azimut’s Dual Mode hull and a choice of twin MAN V12 1400 or 1550 hp engines. Maximum speed remains in the mid-20-knot range, but the yacht is not built around sprinting. Its value is the ability to cruise comfortably across a wide speed band, carry more than 2,100 gallons of fuel and support longer stays aboard without the owner feeling as though the boat was designed only for marina entertaining.
Accommodation is deliberately yacht-like. Four guest cabins sleep eight, while five guest head compartments reduce the compromises that appear on smaller models. The main-deck living area is unusually open, the cockpit can become a panoramic terrace, and the raised pilothouse keeps navigation activity separate from the salon.
The compromise is operational scale. This is not simply a Magellano 66 with another 16 feet. The 25M weighs nearly 193,000 pounds at full load, carries V12 machinery and dedicated crew spaces, and will generally be happier with professional crew or at least active yacht management. Buyers who want to personally handle every docking, washdown, maintenance appointment and systems issue should compare the 66 carefully before assuming the 25M is the better upgrade.
Published factory figures. Confirm every dimension against the individual yacht and its survey.
The 25M uses Azimut’s semi-planing Dual Mode hull, developed to reduce resistance and wave impact across the slower and medium-speed band. The vertical bow and double-chine geometry are intended to let the yacht travel comfortably at lower speeds for range while still reaching roughly 24–25 knots with the larger engine package.
Azimut combines GRP with carbon fiber in the upper structure. The reason is practical: as interior volume and deck height increase, weight placed high in the yacht increases roll moment and raises the center of gravity. Carbon fiber lets Azimut preserve the large superstructure and upper-deck volume while taking mass out of the areas where it hurts dynamic stability most.
At 20′ 8″ of beam and 6′ 3″ of draft, the 25M is firmly in large-yacht marina territory. A survey should pay close attention to hull condition, running gear, stabilizer systems where fitted, through-hulls, tankage, prior repairs and the condition of the carbon/GRP structural interfaces accessible to the surveyor.
Azimut offers the Magellano 25M with twin MAN V12 diesels at 1,400 or 1,550 hp each. Both packages use shaft-line propulsion, a conservative choice for a yacht expected to cruise long distances and be serviced internationally. The larger package raises the published maximum speed to about 25 knots and fast cruise to about 19 knots.
On a yacht this size, propulsion should be evaluated as a complete machinery system rather than two engine model numbers. Cooling systems, shaft alignment, gearboxes, exhaust, stabilizers, generators, battery systems and hydraulic loads all influence reliability. Service records should show not only scheduled engine work but also the maintenance history of the supporting systems that make long-range cruising possible.
A pre-purchase mechanical inspection is warranted in addition to the general marine survey. Oil samples, diagnostic history, generator load testing and review of major service intervals can materially change the economics of a used 25M.
The Magellano 25M carries 8,100 liters, or about 2,139 US gallons, of diesel. Azimut does not publish the same detailed slow- and fast-cruise fuel table on the current 25M page that it provides for the Magellano 60, so the production page should not invent a gallons-per-hour figure.
The core ownership point is still clear: the Dual Mode hull rewards slowing down. A buyer who cruises this yacht at displacement or low semi-displacement speeds will see a very different fuel budget from an owner who regularly runs in the high teens.
For seasonal planning, calculate fuel from actual itinerary and engine hours. A 2,139-gallon tank does not mean every trip starts with a full bunker or that all fuel is considered usable range. Maintain a reserve and include generator consumption when estimating multi-day passages.
Published maximum speed is up to 24–25 knots depending on engine choice, with fast cruise around 18–19 knots. Those numbers make the 25M unusual among 80-foot long-range-oriented yachts: it can still reposition quickly when schedule or weather matters.
The more important performance trait is flexibility. The Dual Mode hull is designed to avoid the abrupt “on plane/off plane” personality of some conventional planing yachts. Owners can choose a speed for comfort, range or arrival time instead of feeling forced into one narrow efficient cruise setting.
The 25M’s cockpit is designed to function as a terrace over the water, using a transparent aft parapet to preserve the horizon view. The main deck flows into a large salon, but the raised pilothouse and enclosed galley create a more professional service pattern than on the smaller 60 and 66.
Up top, the yacht carries a true upper-deck social area rather than a simple flybridge. The separation between guest zones and operating areas makes the boat more comfortable on longer passages because crew can navigate, prepare meals and service the yacht without taking over the main living spaces.
At the stern, tender and water-access arrangements should be inspected on the actual build because option packages can materially change storage, hydraulic systems and usable platform space.
The 25M adds a level of hotel-system complexity that changes both survey and ownership planning. Generator capacity, lithium battery systems where fitted, HVAC, freshwater, black/gray water, stabilizers, navigation electronics and hydraulic equipment should all be operated under load during survey.
Azimut also highlights a zero-emission hotel-mode concept using a lithium-ion battery pack on this model. Verify whether the individual yacht includes the system, its battery age, cycle history, cooling arrangement and service documentation before assigning value to it.
An 82′ 9″ yacht with a 20′ 8″ beam cannot be treated like a larger recreational slip tenant. Confirm berth length, beam allowance, shore-power service, fueling logistics, draft and turning room before purchase. Some marinas that can accept the LOA may still be unsuitable because of beam, power or service access.
Tender cranes, antennas and upper-deck equipment can affect bridge clearance and transport planning.
Use the gallery to show the scale transition from the smaller Magellanos: raised pilothouse, separate crew/service circulation, upper deck, owner accommodation, guest cabins, cockpit terrace and machinery spaces. The images should make it obvious why this is an 80-foot-class yacht rather than an enlarged 66.
Pricing must be tied to model year, build specification and actual listing history.
Options, stabilization, electronics, tender package, zero-emission hotel equipment, refit history, tax status and flag/documentation can move value substantially.
Build the annual ownership estimate from the actual yacht and home port rather than a generic percentage of purchase price.

The meaningful internal comparison is the Magellano 66 versus 25M, and then 25M versus 27M. The 66 is still a large cruising yacht. The 25M adds professional crew separation and superyacht-scale systems. The 27M adds a fifth guest cabin and a newer architectural concept.
A 25M purchase is as much a documentation and condition exercise as it is a layout decision. New builds involve specification, delivery timing and option management. Brokerage examples require a detailed review of service, crew practices, operating hours and refit history.
For imported or foreign-flagged yachts, resolve tax, customs, documentation and insurance questions early. The cheapest asking price can become the most expensive transaction if those issues are discovered after deposit.
At this size, the financing conversation should begin before a large deposit is wired. Send Float Finance the specific 25M listing or build proposal so the loan structure can be evaluated alongside survey, insurance, documentation and ownership-entity requirements.
Market pricing varies by year, specification and tax status.
Azimut lists four guest cabins with eight guest berths, plus two crew cabins with three crew berths. That separation is one of the reasons the 25M should be treated as a crewed yacht rather than a large owner-operated cruiser.
Azimut offers twin MAN V12 diesels rated at 1,400 or 1,550 hp each on shaft lines. Published maximum speed is approximately 24–25 knots depending on package.
Fuel capacity is 8,100 liters, approximately 2,139 US gallons. Published gallons-per-hour and range should remain bracketed until the project attaches an approved sea-trial dataset.
Azimut publishes a 20′ 8″ maximum beam and 6′ 3″ draft including propellers at full load. Those dimensions require large-yacht marina planning before purchase.
Potentially, yes, subject to borrower, vessel and lender eligibility. Expect survey, insurance, documentation, ownership structure and liquidity to matter more than they would on a smaller recreational boat.
The yacht can technically be owned however the buyer chooses, but its size, V12 machinery, dedicated crew accommodation and systems make professional crew or active yacht management the practical expectation for most owners.
No. This is an 82-foot yacht weighing nearly 193,000 pounds at full load. Relocation over land requires specialized yacht transport; normal ownership assumes a wet berth or professional yard facility.
