The Azimut Yachts 80 2008 vs Azimut Yachts S10 2019 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Azimut Yachts S10 2019 measures 94,3 feet overall (2019), giving it roughly 11,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Azimut Yachts 80 2008 at 83,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Azimut Yachts S10 2019 tips the scales at 213 692 lbs — 213 578 lbs less than the Azimut Yachts 80 2008 at 114 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 2 600 hp, the Azimut Yachts S10 2019 has a 2 598-hp advantage over the Azimut Yachts 80 2008's 2-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Azimut Yachts 80 2008 carries 1 585 gallons versus 251 gallons in the Azimut Yachts S10 2019. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Azimut Yachts S10 2019 is rated for 28 passengers, while the Azimut Yachts 80 2008 caps at 25. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Azimut Yachts S10 2019 could be the deciding factor.
