The beauty of the Seadeck 7 is not solely a matter of exterior and interior design elements that combine to perfectly play out Azimut’s essence. Her beauty is also about discovering the technological advancements and special components that contribute to making her truly unique and highly innovative.

Seadeck is the first family yacht series in the world to be equipped with Volvo’s new hybrid-electric pod propulsion system. The new propulsion system, synergizing with bow-to-stern optimizations by the shipyard, delivers unparalleled efficiency. In one year of average use by a conscious owner, a reduction in CO2 emissions of 40% is achievable. At the same time, guests are able to appreciate an immersive experience of the sea, with reduced engine noise and vibration for quiet or completely silent operation – not only at anchor, using the battery to supply the hotel load, but also for short distance navigation in full electric. A battery pack can support the yacht’s hotel load for up to 4 hours during the day and up to 8 hours at night. Now, it’s possible to enjoy the full superyacht experience without the noise, vibration and emissions of the generators, making daytime activities more pleasant and night time relaxation more peaceful. When the ECO mode is active, the system automatically maximizes the duration of the batteries by regulation the loads on board to optimizing consumption.

The collaboration between NAMES and Azimut’s R&D Department pushes the forefront of innovation, designing customized hulls for each Series with sector’s most sophisticated methodology. In comparison with standard planing hulls optimized for POD propulsion, the hull of the Seadeck 7 is wider at the stern and more streamlined at the bow, allowing it to begin hydroplaning and therefore reducing drag at lower speeds. This advanced solution broadens the speed range at which the Seadeck 7 can navigate at peak efficiency. Azimut’s pioneering use of carbon fiber extends beyond pure performance. For the first time ever, up to 40% of the Seadeck 7’s surface is laminated with carbon fiber, which lightens those parts by up to 30%, allowing for an unparalleled optimization of consumption and CO2 emissions.
