ALE

The Azimut S8 “ALE” redefines what a modern motor yacht can be, pairing exhilarating performance with the kind of effortless comfort that turns every passage into part of the holiday. Designed by naval architect Alberto Mancini and launched in 2024, she’s built for those who want to experience the Mediterranean entirely on their own terms.

Her open superstructure dissolves the boundary between salon and aft deck, letting guests drift naturally between air-conditioned ease and the open air without ever feeling like they’ve left one space for another. Starlink keeps everyone connected wherever the day takes them, while a full outdoor sound system means the mood on board is always exactly the one you choose.

Nine guests sleep across four beautifully appointed cabins: a Master suite, a Queen, a twin, and a twin with an additional pullman berth, flexible enough for families or groups of friends. Underway, she reaches a top speed of 34 knots, with stabilisers both at anchor and at sea keeping the ride smooth whether you’re cutting across open water or relaxing at a quiet bay. The flybridge is open to the sky and laid out generously for long lunches, golden-hour cocktails, and lazy afternoons that drift into evening.

A professional crew of three handles everything else, freeing guests to simply enjoy the experience, and an extensive selection of water toys means there’s always something to do the moment the anchor drops. ALE is the Mediterranean, full throttle.
