Azimut 45

Onboard the Azimut 45

The Azimut 45 measures 13.7 metres and carries up to 11 guests, with a cruising speed near 32 knots that makes short coastal runs feel unhurried rather than rushed. The open deck at the stern holds a dining set that catches the breeze rather than the noise of the engine — a detail that matters on a boat built for lunch outside as much as for the run itself.

Leaving Port Olímpic and running south past Barceloneta, this Azimut covers the distance to Sitges inside an hour at cruising speed, leaving the rest of a five to seven hour day free for swimming and a table set on deck rather than ashore. The open water off Sitges tends to sit calmer than Barcelona's own roadstead, and the boat's compact size means it can sit close to the beach without the manoeuvring a larger hull would need.

Two cabins below keep things simple: somewhere to change, stow bags, or step out of the sun for a few minutes, rather than a base for staying overnight. Eleven guests suits a family gathering, a small circle of friends, or a compact client lunch without the boat feeling stretched. The exact day plan and timing get confirmed directly with the Barcelona base, matched to group numbers and the season's conditions on the water.
