The Azimut 103S stars at the XV International Dubai Boat Show

An exclusive world preview of the new star of the S Range, unveiled for 900 guests from the Arab jet set, together with a concert by Lebanese starlet Nancy Ajram.

Avigliana, 27/03/2007 – To celebrate the opening of the XV International Dubai Boat Show, Azimut Yachts has unveiled the new flagship of its “S Range”: a true boating masterpiece uniting the sheer class of Italian design with the latest in hi-tech.

The model was presented to the international press and the exclusive clientele of the United Arab Emirates in a grand gala event, rich in atmosphere and special effects.

Over 900 guests were present to applaud Azimut’s new creation and admire its innovative design, featuring a unique mix of comfort, space, and luxury finishes, a sporty feel, and the application of new structural building criteria and the use of cutting-edge technology to make life on board an absolute treat.

An exclusive gathering of guests – featuring the who’s who of the Arab world – came to witness the unveiling of the Azimut 103S at the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club.

Azimut Yachts was proud to entertain its guests with an event rich in atmosphere, featuring the performance of four artists who danced in floating Plexiglas “bubbles” on water.

A laser show was projected onto the world-famous seawater inlet of Dubai, followed by a spectacular fireworks display over the creek, in time to music.

All of which was accompanied by the magical notes of Nancy Ajram – the glamorous Lebanese pop singer and Arab music idol, with over 12 million CDs sold – and her 14 piece band.

In what has been for years now one of Azimut Yacht’s most important markets, the company sought to give its guests a night to be remembered for its atmosphere and impact, an extravaganza of style and excellence in keeping with its prestigious international name.

Visiting the show was also the governor of Dubai Sheick Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum and Marcello Lippi, coach of the World Champion Italian soccer team, at the XV International Dubai Boat Show to admire the range of yachts from this Italian boat builder, with yards in Avigliana and Viareggio.
