Description
BOAT is an Azimut 68s, supporting the quality that goes into all these Italian built vessels. The challenge for Azimut was to build a sports model that stood out. The 68s model has a narrower hull than the 68-ft flybridge model. The forward hull sections are deeper and then decrease moving aft. The prop tunnels allow the shaft to be at a minimal angle allowing for a super fine ride with superior handling if going into quick turns.
The expressions of the Azimut quality will penetrate deeply into any person privileged to get on board and experience the ride on the open ocean. BOAT gets its power from two powerful MTU engines paired with a hull perfectly matched that will allow the boat to reach an impressive top speed of 36 knots and a cruising speed of 26 knots. With a push of a button. open the roof, take the helm and head out to explore the ocean. Comfortable, open and airy, private, incredible ride are a few of the words that come to mind when describing her. Azimut has achieved many awards for building top quality yachts. The company continues to grow as they are now building vessel up to 120 ft. Azimut yachts fulfill the promise of a superior superstructure design, but they also deliver on the smaller details, right down to the choice of material that goes into finishing. The quality of the hardware and the safety systems that are addressed and installed throughout the boat are exceptional!
BOAT resides in the Southern California, U.S. Flagged, LLC Owned, this Azimut 68s is very unique to this part of the region. BOAT gets noticed everywhere she goes.

Northrop & Johnson Yacht Broker Rolf Smith fell in love with life at sea at age 15 when he spent a summer aboard a Swedish training ship, the HMS Falken. The following year, he enlisted in the Swedish Merchant Marine and began crewing on cargo ships throughout North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and elsewhere.
Rolf then transitioned to selling luxury automobiles and building a network of affluent clientele around the world. Eventually, his passion expanded to include the skies; he became a certified fixed-wing and helicopter pilot. In addition to his marine background, Rolf has 25 years of experience in aviation, brokering deals on jets and helicopters for businesses and High Net Worth Individuals around the world.
Rolf’s love for life at sea lead him back to the yachting industry, where he became a yacht sales broker. Rolf’s position — with one foot in the aviation world and the other in yachting — is unique. The clients who trust him with their aviation acquisition needs also enlist him to take care of their yachting interests.
Rolf is a dedicated sales broker who always provides the highest level of bespoke service to clients. He is a skilled listener and is able to tailor his approach to meet any client’s needs. His honesty and integrity have led to a high number of repeat and referral clients.
