Jacuzzi on the Sundeck

The sundeck is one of AZUL V’s strongest features. A large Jacuzzi sits centrally, flanked by oversized sunpads and a wet bar.

The layout is open, with space to move comfortably. A low-profile Satcom arch and retractable awning provide shade without interrupting the open-air layout.

On the main deck aft is the tender area. An extended swim platform enables easy water toy access.

Grand Master Suite

Positioned forward on the main deck, the full-beam master benefits from wide, uninterrupted windows—flooding the space with light while maintaining complete privacy.

The suite also includes a private study, lounge area, and a marble-finished bathroom with a deep tub. It’s a true owner’s space – private, spacious, and properly integrated into the yacht’s layout.

VIP Salon on the Upper Deck

Superyacht AZUL V has a massive salon on the upper deck. High standards of finish contribute to a luxurious atmosphere complemented by ample seating on plush sofas.

Smaller coffee tables and game tables provide private corners for intimate conversations or a game of chess or any selection of boardgames,

Formal Dining Room

The main deck dining room seats up to 12 guests and can be set for either white-glove service or casual meals, depending on the occasion.

The space is finished in traditional woodwork with a refined, understated feel—classic without being heavy. Its layout connects easily to both the main salon and exterior decks, making it practical for both private dining and guest service.

Fully Rebuilt in 2015

AZUL V was built by CRN in 1996, with exterior design by Paolo Scanu—one of the most respected names in classic Italian yacht design. His work defined an era of elegant, proportion-driven superyachts, and AZUL V is a strong example of that legacy.

Between 2013 and 2015, AZUL V underwent a full rebuild. This included new teak decks, a complete exterior repaint, and significant technical upgrades throughout. The project modernised all major systems while preserving the original design integrity. It was a proper rebuild, not a cosmetic update.

Yacht Description

At 48.2 metres with a volume of 497 GT, AZUL V offers the scale and presence of a much larger yacht, with a clean, traditional layout that supports both private cruising and charter use. She’s currently located in Southeast Asia—one of the most capable and impressive yachts in the region.

Value

AZUL V is offered at €8.9M, which equates to just €17.9K per gross ton—well below the current market average of €33K/GT. For a fully rebuilt 50m yacht with a proven pedigree, this represents real value.

Operating Budget

The yacht has a well-documented operating history and a lean, efficient budget for her size. For owners who want to cruise extensively without excess overhead, this makes AZUL V one of the most cost-effective yachts in the 50m class.

Seakeeping & Stability

Equipped with full stabilizers underway, AZUL V is a stable, capable cruising platform. With a 4,700 nm range, she’s built for long passages and performs well in open water.

Interior & Layout

The layout is structured and traditional, with six staterooms, including a main deck master and a full-beam VIP on the lower deck. Living spaces are balanced and well-proportioned, with clear separation between guest, crew, and service areas—essential for both private and charter use.

Style & Atmosphere

The interior reflects classic yacht design—rich woods, tailored detailing, and a sense of order and symmetry throughout. It’s a calm, quiet atmosphere that prioritizes long-term livability over trends.

Ownership Opportunity

Whether you’re looking for a private cruising platform or a strong charter candidate, AZUL V presents a rare opportunity: a fully rebuilt, traditionally styled 50m yacht with clear value, low running costs, and a timeless profile.
