Seadeck 6 is the model for buyers who want the Seadeck idea without moving immediately into professional-yacht scale. Its defining trade is compactness: it delivers a real three-cabin interior and a dramatic open stern, but the guest spaces and crew provision are deliberately tighter than the 7 and 9.
Official Azimut specifications put the Seadeck 6 at 56′ 7″ overall with a 16′ 7″ beam. Accommodation is 3 + 1 crew cabins with 6 + 1 crew berths. Power comes from 3 × Volvo Penta IPS 500 (380 hp) / optional IPS 650 (480 hp). Those numbers matter because Seadeck is not a conventional interior-first motor yacht: the design allocates meaningful volume to water-level living and energy-efficiency systems rather than simply maximizing enclosed square footage.
The Fun Island is the center of the layout. Opening side wings, a moving swim platform and the large aft lounge turn the stern into the main gathering zone. Inside, the galley/salon opens directly toward that space, so the cook, cockpit guests and swimmers remain visually connected instead of being separated by a conventional aft bulkhead.
The compromise is equally important. Seadeck rewards buyers who actually use the stern, swim, anchor out and value quieter/lower-demand onboard living. A buyer whose priority is a huge flybridge, the most formal salon separation or maximum enclosed volume per foot may be happier in another Azimut family.
The Seadeck 6 uses Carbon fibre + GRP construction and 18° stern / 20° amidships. The hull is relatively broad aft to help the yacht transition onto plane efficiently while supporting the large opening Fun Island. Independent testing of an early hull recorded a clean, controlled planing transition and unusually low sound levels at cruise.
Carbon fiber is used high in the structure to reduce weight where it most affects center of gravity and roll. That matters on Seadeck because the design adds large opening stern elements and substantial glass while still trying to hold down consumption.
Practical dimensions are just as important as construction: beam is 16′ 7″, draft is 4′ 8″, and full-load displacement is 68,342 lb Coupe / 70,106 lb Sundeck.
Azimut specifies 3 × Volvo Penta IPS 500 (380 hp) / optional IPS 650 (480 hp), producing 1,140 hp standard / 1,440 hp optional. Pod propulsion is part of the packaging and maneuvering story across the Seadeck family, but exact joystick, hybrid, battery and generator configurations should be verified on the specific hull.
Early 2024 sea-trial boats paired diesel IPS propulsion with a lithium-based hotel-energy system that could run major house loads without constant generator use. Current builds and options should be verified hull by hull. Azimut also uses carbon fiber, recycled PET-based materials, cork exterior decking and other lower-impact materials as part of the Seadeck brief.
On a used yacht, ask for engine hours, oil/coolant service, pod service, seals, corrosion protection, propeller history and software/control-system updates. Technology-heavy yachts reward documentation. A clean service file is more valuable than a seller saying the boat was ‘always maintained.’
Azimut publishes useful consumption data for the Seadeck 6: 6.9 liters per nautical mile at 18.5 knots with a stated 315-nautical-mile range, and 7.4 liters per nautical mile at 24.8 knots with a 291-nautical-mile range. An independent Power & Motoryacht test of an early triple-IPS hull reported roughly 45 gph around 22–23 knots and 76 gph near top speed, which is useful context but should not replace the manufacturer table for production specs.
Fuel capacity is 634 US gal. Build a seasonal budget from actual engine hours, chosen cruise speed and local diesel price rather than a generic percentage of purchase price. Hotel loads, batteries, generator runtime and stabilization also change total energy cost at anchor.
Where Azimut publishes ISO-style range figures, use them as a standardized comparison point, not a guarantee. Load, bottom condition, sea state, wind and optional equipment can all move the real result.
Azimut publishes Up to 33 kn Coupe / 31 kn Sundeck maximum speed and Up to 24 kn Coupe / 22 kn Sundeck cruise performance for the Seadeck 6. Seadeck is not a displacement trawler and it is not a pure performance yacht. The design target is efficient planing speed with enough reserve to cover coastal distance quickly while keeping family comfort central.
During sea trial, pay attention to planing transition, noise, trim response, visibility and how the boat behaves when crossing its own wake. On Seadeck, also listen for rattles or movement around the large opening stern elements and verify that the moving platforms/wings operate cleanly before treating them as lifestyle features.
The Fun Island is the center of the layout. Opening side wings, a moving swim platform and the large aft lounge turn the stern into the main gathering zone. Inside, the galley/salon opens directly toward that space, so the cook, cockpit guests and swimmers remain visually connected instead of being separated by a conventional aft bulkhead.
The buyer test is simple: stand at the stern with the side elements deployed and imagine the boat with eight people actually using it. Check routes to the helm, galley, foredeck and water. The design succeeds when the Fun Island remains usable without turning circulation into a bottleneck.
At the helm, verify sightlines in both open and closed configurations, joystick placement, electronics, wiper coverage and access to side decks. A beautiful salon matters less if docking visibility or communication with line handlers is awkward.
Early 2024 sea-trial boats paired diesel IPS propulsion with a lithium-based hotel-energy system that could run major house loads without constant generator use. Current builds and options should be verified hull by hull. Azimut also uses carbon fiber, recycled PET-based materials, cork exterior decking and other lower-impact materials as part of the Seadeck brief.
Survey the technology as seriously as the hull. Run the generator, inverter/charger, batteries where fitted, HVAC, stabilization, shore-power equipment, pumps, moving stern hardware and monitoring system under load. On a newer high-technology yacht, software and firmware history can matter alongside mechanical service records.
At 56′ 7″ overall with a 16′ 7″ beam, the Seadeck 6 needs planned dockage. Confirm slip length, beam allowance, water depth, shore power and turning room before closing.
Also confirm haul-out capacity and service access. The same yard that can physically dock the boat may not have the lift, technicians or electrical expertise to support Seadeck’s IPS and energy-management systems.
Use the gallery to judge the Seadeck 6 as a working family yacht: running profile, Fun Island, water access, helm, salon, owner suite, guest cabins and machinery spaces. Pay attention to how the stern changes when platforms and wings are deployed.
Pricing for the Azimut Seadeck 6 depends on model year, build specification, propulsion option, hybrid/battery equipment where fitted, electronics, stabilization, tender equipment, engine hours and service history.
Ownership cost should include dockage, insurance, IPS service, generators, HVAC, haul-out, bottom work, detailing and energy-system service. On battery-equipped boats, long-term replacement planning belongs in the budget even if the current battery health is excellent.

New dealer stock offers the cleanest build-sheet and warranty path. Brokerage examples require closer attention to engine hours, battery/energy-system health where fitted, software updates and stern-hardware maintenance. Private-party purchases can work well but add title, lien, survey and closing coordination.
On Seadeck, do not let the sustainability story distract from normal yacht diligence. A survey should verify hull condition, IPS drives, electrical systems, generators, batteries, HVAC, stabilizers, opening terraces/wings and the service documentation behind them.
Already looking at a specific Azimut Seadeck 6? Send Float Finance the listing. The financing discussion should be based on the actual hull, actual equipment and transaction type—especially on a newer series where two boats can differ meaningfully in energy systems and options.
Actual value varies with model year, propulsion, options, electronics, stabilization, battery/energy equipment, hours and service history. A recent major service or stronger specification can justify a meaningful premium over an apparently similar listing.
Azimut lists 3 + 1 crew cabins and 6 + 1 crew berths. Confirm the general arrangement on the specific hull because layout options can change how guest and crew spaces are allocated.
The Seadeck 6 uses 3 × Volvo Penta IPS 500 (380 hp) / optional IPS 650 (480 hp), producing 1,140 hp standard / 1,440 hp optional. Verify whether the exact yacht has the standard or optional package and review the full IPS service history before purchase.
Azimut publishes Up to 33 kn Coupe / 31 kn Sundeck maximum speed and Up to 24 kn Coupe / 22 kn Sundeck cruising performance. Actual results change with load, sea state, bottom condition and option weight.
Azimut publishes useful consumption data for the Seadeck 6: 6.9 liters per nautical mile at 18.5 knots with a stated 315-nautical-mile range, and 7.4 liters per nautical mile at 24.8 knots with a 291-nautical-mile range.

The Seadeck family is marketed by Azimut as its first hybrid Series, but exact propulsion and hotel-energy systems vary by model and build. Current official technical tables list Volvo Penta IPS diesel packages. Verify the battery, generator, hybrid and propulsion specification of the exact hull instead of assuming every Seadeck has identical technology.
Potentially, yes, subject to borrower, yacht and lender eligibility. A newer technology-heavy yacht may require clear survey and equipment documentation during underwriting. Getting prequalified before negotiating helps establish a realistic purchase range.
Yes. At 56′ 7″ overall and 16′ 7″ of beam, the Seadeck 6 is a marina or professionally managed dockage yacht. Confirm slip dimensions, draft, shore power and service access before closing.
