The 55′ Azimut is an Italian-built flybridge motor yacht from the Azimut-Benetti Group in Turin — the same manufacturer as the 50, 62, and 68-foot Azimut vessels in the Miami Boat Charters fleet. The 55 model is specifically known for two interior design details that distinguish it from other flybridge vessels in the range: a split-level salon layout that creates a visual separation between the seating area and the lower galley level without walls or partitions, and cherry wood trim throughout — a warmer, distinctly Italian finish compared to the lighter contemporary interiors of newer Azimut models. At 55 feet with 740 gallons of fuel, the 55 Azimut carries more offshore range than the 62 Azimut in the fleet — the most fuel per foot of any Azimut between 50 and 62 feet available from Miami. The vessel accommodates 12 guests during the day and 6 overnight across 3 staterooms, with both the Master and VIP staterooms fitted with queen beds.

Yacht Overview
The 55′ Azimut accommodates 12 guests during the day and 6 guests overnight across 3 private staterooms. The Master Stateroom features a queen size bed with an ensuite head and shower. The VIP Stateroom has a queen size bed with its own ensuite head and shower — both the Master and VIP are fitted with equal queen beds, giving overnight guests the same cabin quality regardless of which stateroom they take. The Guest Room has two single beds. The salon interior is built around the 55 Azimut’s split-level design — a defining characteristic of this Azimut model that creates distinct visual zones within the open cabin space through changes in floor level rather than dividing walls, giving the interior a sense of volume that conventional flat-plan salons at this length do not produce. Cherry wood trim runs throughout the salon cabinetry and joinery, providing a warm Italian character that stands apart from the lighter contemporary interiors of newer Azimut models. The sound system runs through every level of the vessel — from the salon to the flybridge. The full galley features wood cabinetry, stove, refrigerator and freezer, microwave, coffee maker, and oven for provisioned overnight passages. The flybridge is large and spacious, equipped with a wet bar, sun pads, and open seating with 360-degree views — the social centerpiece for day charter groups during the Biscayne Bay cruising route and the Nixon’s Sandbar anchor stop.
Why Charter the 55′ Azimut in Miami?
The 55 Azimut is built by Azimut-Benetti Group in Turin — the same Italian manufacturer behind the 50, 62, and 68-foot Azimut vessels in the Miami Boat Charters fleet, and the world’s largest yacht-building group by production volume. The 55 model’s split-level salon with cherry wood trim is a design specific to this generation of Azimut production — a visual and spatial character not replicated in any other vessel in the fleet at this price point. At 55 feet with 740 gallons of fuel capacity, the 55 Azimut carries marginally more offshore range than the 62 Azimut (700 gal), making it the highest fuel-capacity Azimut available in the 50 to 62-foot range from Miami. Day charters include a USCG-licensed captain, professional crew, fuel for local Miami cruising, water, sodas, and ice — all-in from $3,000 for a 4-hour half-day charter, no fuel surcharge at the end. Charters depart from Miami Beach Marina (300 Alton Rd) for half-day (4 hours) or full-day (8 hours) formats.
The standard 55 Azimut day charter route covers Government Cut for cruise ship views from the flybridge, the Star Island, Palm Island, and Hibiscus Island celebrity home cruise narrated by your captain, and a Nixon’s Sandbar anchor stop in Key Biscayne where the flybridge sun pads and wet bar operate simultaneously for guests both on deck and in the water. The cherry wood salon and split-level interior make the below-deck experience during the cruise distinctly more spacious in feel than the square footage alone suggests — the visual separation of levels creates the sense of a larger vessel. With 740 gallons of fuel, the 55 Azimut reaches Bimini in under 3 hours (50 nautical miles) and Nassau in a comfortable full-day passage (119 nautical miles). Multi-day term charters to Bimini, Nassau, and the Florida Keys are available for 6 overnight guests across the 3 staterooms. Contact us at (305) 401-2707 to plan your itinerary.

Everything you need to know before booking the 55′ Azimut in Miami.
The 55' Azimut accommodates 12 guests for day charters and 6 guests overnight across 3 staterooms — Master (queen bed, ensuite head and shower), VIP (queen bed, ensuite head and shower), and Guest Room (two single beds). Both the Master and VIP are fitted with queen beds — overnight guests get equal cabin quality regardless of stateroom. The large flybridge with sun pads and wet bar gives 12 day charter guests generous outdoor space above the main deck.
The 55' Azimut starts at $3,000 for a 4-hour half-day charter and $4,800 for an 8-hour full-day charter. All pricing is all-in — USCG-licensed captain, crew, fuel for local Miami cruising, water, sodas, and ice included. No fuel surcharge at the end. Crew gratuity of 15 to 20% of the charter fee is the only additional cost, paid in cash to the captain at the end of the charter.
The 55 Azimut's salon features a split-level layout — a design specific to this model's generation of Azimut production where changes in floor level create distinct visual zones within the open cabin space rather than using walls or partitions. The effect gives the salon interior a greater sense of volume and depth than its square footage suggests, with the seating area and galley occupying different levels visible from the same open plan. Combined with cherry wood trim throughout the cabinetry and joinery, the 55 Azimut's interior is visually distinct from the lighter contemporary interiors of newer Azimut models in the fleet.
Yes — the 55' Azimut's 740-gallon fuel capacity provides full offshore range for Bahamas passages. Bimini is 50 nautical miles from Miami Beach Marina (under 3 hours at cruise speed). Nassau is 119 nautical miles — a comfortable full-day passage. The 55 Azimut carries 40 more gallons than the 62 Azimut in the fleet, making it the highest-capacity Azimut between 50 and 62 feet for offshore range. Multi-day term charters to Bimini, Nassau, and the Florida Keys are available for 6 overnight guests.
Yes — all charters on the 55' Azimut are fully crewed. A USCG-licensed captain handles all navigation, route planning, and offshore passage management for the full charter duration. A professional crew member manages the flybridge wet bar, sun pad setup, sandbar anchor operations, and guest service throughout. No boating license or prior experience is required from any guest. Miami Boat Charters has operated fully crewed charters on Biscayne Bay since 2000.
The 55' Azimut is ideal for groups who want Italian flybridge design at a price below the 62 Azimut — couples and small groups of 4 to 8 who want the Azimut brand, split-level cherry wood interior, and 740-gallon Bahamas range in a 55-foot package, anniversary and birthday charters where the equal-queen Master and VIP staterooms give overnight couples identical cabin quality with no hierarchy between rooms, Bahamas weekend term charters where the 740-gallon fuel range covers the Bimini passage comfortably, and guests who specifically want the cherry wood split-level aesthetic that differentiates this generation of Azimut from the lighter interiors of newer Italian motor yachts.
