Azimut Grande 27M for Sale: Price, Specs and Buying Guide

Who the Azimut Grande 27M suits in the Gulf

At 27 metres, this is a boat that needs a marina built for it, not a boat that fits everywhere. Jeddah Yacht Club takes vessels from 10 to over 120 metres with onsite customs and immigration, and NEOM's Sindalah Marina takes yachts up to 75 metres, so a Grande 27M based on Saudi Arabia's Red Sea coast has a genuine choice of Port-of-Entry berths rather than having to squeeze into a marina designed for smaller flybridges.

The 800nm range at a fuel-efficient 12kt cruise is enough for a proper multi-day Red Sea passage between Jeddah, Sindalah and the newer AMAALA Yacht Club, not just an afternoon out and back. That range, paired with five ensuite cabins, is what suits multi-generational Saudi and Qatari families who want grandparents, parents and children aboard for a week rather than a day.

If your real use case is weekend day-boating for six people, the smaller Azimut 68 covers it for a fraction of the running cost. Photos and full survey reports of specific Grande 27M hulls are available on request via WhatsApp.

Azimut Grande 27M price in 2026

Pre-owned Grande 27Ms trade from roughly $4.8 million to $8.4 million as of 2026 market range, with asking prices averaging around $6.3 million. New list price runs approximately EUR6.5 million (about $7.0 million) in standard configuration, which puts a chunk of the pre-owned market within a few years' depreciation of new, not the steep discount you would see on an older or more common model.

Because this hull is relatively scarce on the brokerage market compared with the smaller 68, a full logbook matters more here than on a more commonly traded flybridge. Build year, engine hours on the twin MAN V12 1900s, generator hours and any documented refit history are the standard drivers, but on a Grande 27M a documentation gap is a bigger red flag than it would be on a model with dozens of comparable listings to benchmark against. Treat any figure here as a 2026 market range to confirm against the specific hull, not a fixed price.

What the survey must check

Push for documentation on:

• Confirm MAN V12 1900 engine hours, service history and shaft or strut alignment. This is a conventional shaft-drive engine room, not the pod drives you would find on the smaller 68.
• Check generator hours closely: five cabins' worth of air conditioning and hotel load in Gulf heat means the generator works harder here than on a smaller flybridge.
• Inspect the carbon-fiber superstructure and gelcoat or paint for UV degradation after Gulf sun exposure.
• Check teak decking and any marble or stone interior finishes for wear. Both are expensive to put right if neglected.
• Review the stabilizer system's full service history.
• Commission an osmosis check on the GRP planing hull below the waterline.
• Ask for the complete logbook. This model is scarce enough on the brokerage market that documentation gaps matter more than they would on a more common hull.

Running costs

The usual industry rule of thumb of roughly 10% of purchase value a year applies here too, but treat it as a floor rather than a ceiling. A five-cabin yacht this size carries above-average crew numbers and hotel load, air conditioning and generator running, in Gulf heat, both of which push real costs above what the same rule of thumb would predict for a smaller flybridge.

Get a specific management quote before you buy, ideally from a firm already managing a Grande 27M or similar-sized yacht in Saudi or Qatari waters, rather than assuming the percentage-of-value estimate covers a boat this large. Heavier refit and engineering work for a hull this size still typically routes to yacht service specialists in Dubai, so factor that logistics step into any refit budget rather than assuming it can be done locally.
