Azimut Magellan 50

Star at the 2011 Nautical Design Award

In Milan – capital of design and Made in Italy – the official ceremonies were held for the 2011 Nautical Design Awards, important and preeminent recognition devoted to boating design.

Azimut Yachts was the star of the evening with Magellano 50, the secure and sophisticated long-range 50-footer that had its public premier one year ago. The panel of judges, which consisted of experts from the boating and design sectors coordinated by ADI (Association for Industrial Design) in collaboration with Yacht & Sail, recognised the Magellano 50, holder of the most awards in the category “Boats with Low Environmental Impact”, for its innovative capacity and extensive technological features in the service of the environment and the owner.
