Overview
Privately Owned
Huge Specification
Built by Azimut Yachts in 2023 and commissioned in April 2024 through the authorised Italian dealer, this Fly 53 is offered by her sole owner and has been used exclusively for private family cruising. Over two seasons she has accumulated approximately 162 engine hours, the equivalent of roughly one month on the water per year. She is currently laid ashore at Bodrum, Turkey, professionally maintained, in sound condition throughout, and available for immediate inspection.
The Fly 53 is one of Alberto Mancini's most resolved designs in the 50-55 foot class. The hull combines a relatively shallow entry with a wide beam carried well aft, which accounts for both the interior volume and the stable platform at anchor. The flybridge is genuinely usable rather than decorative, and the separation between the crew cabin and guest accommodation is a practical feature rarely achieved at this length. It is a yacht that works as well for a couple with occasional guests as it does for a full family cruise with crew.
What distinguishes this particular example is the depth of her specification. The owner invested approximately €722,500 above the base price in factory and dealer-fitted options, bringing the total build cost to €1,912,500. Most significantly, she carries the Volvo Penta Assisted Docking System with Dynamic Positioning, a frequently requested option that genuinely transforms marina handling in confined berths. Exterior teak covers the cockpit, flybridge, side walkways and swimming platform. A Garmin Gold navigation package, Hikvision 9-camera security system, Idromar 4-membrane watermaker, 20 kW generator, hydraulic passerelle and a fully equipped AB 290 jet tender are all included. The tender has had one season of use only.
Twin Volvo Penta D11 IPS 950 engines produce 533 kW apiece, delivering a comfortable cruising speed of 26 knots, a top speed of 31 knots and an estimated range of 260 nautical miles. Below decks, three guest cabins include a full-beam master cabin, and a separate crew cabin with private shower and WC ensures operational independence.

Broker's Summary
In a market where genuinely low-hour examples of this class are rare, this vessel stands apart on several counts: sole private ownership, no charter history, and a specification assembled with care rather than simply ticked off a brochure. The Volvo DPS docking system alone is a feature that many buyers seek and few find already fitted. A new Azimut Fly 53 ordered today with a comparable specification would cost in excess of €1,900,000 and carry a build and delivery lead time of twelve months or more. This vessel is available now, already depreciated through its first year, and fitted with over €720,000 of options that a new buyer would have to specify and wait for. On any reasonable measure, it represents a sensible purchase at a fair price.
