Every flybridge yacht promises the water. Most of them then put a transom between you and it. The Azimut Fly 62's answer is the Beach Cockpit — a stern rethought as a sea-facing terrace with no physical or visual barrier to the water, a first for the Fly series.
Who This Boat Is For
Buy the Fly 62 if your time aboard centers on the water itself — swimming, sunning, kids off the stern — and you want a flybridge over it all. This is a boat for weekends at anchor with family or friends, not a long-range passage-maker: the brief is volume, water access and livability at the most attainable size that delivers all three.
The Beach Cockpit
The Fly 62 is the newest mid-range hull of Azimut's Fly series, measuring 63'1" overall on a 16'8" beam and a 5'4" draft, with 740 gallons of fuel and 199 gallons of water. Its signature is the stern: the Beach Cockpit and the Terrace Cockpit arrangement put two distinct outdoor rooms aft of the saloon alone, and the hydraulics that make it work are well-engineered rather than fragile showpieces. The result is a boat that feels bigger than its 63 feet precisely where families actually live.
Accommodation
Three cabins and three heads plus a crew cabin — six guest berths and two crew. The flybridge adds a second helm and an open living level above, so the boat holds three separate social zones at anchor: fly, saloon and the water-level stern.
Performance
Twin 900 hp Volvo Penta IPS 1200 pod drives are standard, good for a published 30-knot maximum and 25-knot cruise; the optional 1,000 hp IPS 1350 pair raises those to 32 and 26. The planing hull carries 17.2 degrees of deadrise at the stern and 22 amidships, and full-load displacement is 85,979 lbs — moderate for the class. The pod installation keeps close-quarters handling manageable for an owner-operator, joystick included.
Run your sea trial at the speeds you will actually hold, and get observed fuel burn in writing while you are at it.
Within the Series
The 62 slots between the Fly 60 and Fly 68 as the hull that introduces the Beach Cockpit idea to the line — the newest thinking in the range without stepping into the 70-foot class. Choose the Fly 60 if the classic cockpit format suits you; step to the Fly 68 when a fourth cabin becomes the requirement.
Where to Start
See this boat at anchor, not just at the dock. The Beach Cockpit is the reason it exists, and its case is made with the platform down, the sofa lowered, and someone climbing out of the water straight into the conversation. If that picture is your family, the Fly 62 is the boat in the series drawn for you.
