Azimut Grande Trideck: 2nd Gen Displacement to Planing Hull - Cutting Edge Naval Architecture

Date: 04/05/2022

The 38.2-meter Grande Trideck is Azimut's new flagship. There are a thousand things that distinguish her as the most advanced Superyacht in the size-class, from the Hull to the Hard top. Starting with the hull, the Azimut|Benetti Research & Development Center has optimized the naval architecture, with help from Pierluigi Ausonio, to yield unrivaled results in terms of efficiency. 

The 2ndGen D2P® hull is based on the combination of three main elements: the double chine, which gives stability at displacement speeds while reducing drag at higher speeds; the wavepiercer, increasing the hull length at the waterline, reducing displacement consumption and reducing pitching in rough seas, and finally the central skeg, that guarantees optimal course stability, especially in aft quartering & following seas.

The previous flagship Grande 35METRI introduced the first generation D2P hull, which was already best in class at the time. Now, the second generation debuts on the Trideck with substantial improvements: Despite being 3 meters longer, 30 GT larger and 35 tons heavier, the Trideck consumes fuel at the same rate as her smaller sister at all speeds above 19 knots, and manages to be 15% more efficient at a cruising speed of 15 kn. To put these results in context, when compared with a traditional hard chine hull, the improvement in displacement fuel efficiency exceeds 40%.
