Smaller and older Azimuts of 60 to 99 feet run about $41,500 to $60,000 a week. We count 57 Azimuts cruising the Bahamas in our catalogue, and 32 are listed on this site, most of them sailing out of Nassau or Miami.
Which Azimut yachts can you charter in the Bahamas?
Azimut was founded in 1969 by Paolo Vitelli near Turin and builds flybridge and sport motor yachts in Italy. Its Grande range, from 26 to 38 metres, makes up most of the newer Azimuts in the Bahamas.
The Azimuts cruising the Bahamas fall into four sizes:
- 60 to 79 feet: nineteen yachts for six to eight guests, at about $41,500 a week.

High-season weekly rates of the Azimuts in our catalogue that cruise the Bahamas, built 2000 or later, October 2026. Not every yacht is listed online, so ask us about any size here and we will quote it.
The APA of 25 to 40% and the 14% Bahamas charter tax come on top, and our Bahamas yacht charter cost guide works through a real example.
Below $80,000 a week, a crewed catamaran usually gives a better week in the Bahamas than an older motor yacht. Our catamaran charters page lists them all.
